Diary of an up and coming sociopath

I just installed Wordpress 2.0. It’s got a bunch of really excellent improvements on the backend. Let me know how it’s going, especially if you find any bugs. I refuse to believe that even transferring across my slightly hacked and incomplete theme files didn’t massively break things. I looks really pathetic from that side, though. It’s like being in a newly decorated and refurbished house when all people can see is the same old red brickwork. I’ll make a new style for this if it kills me. Anyway, you know who to point the blame at when things fuck up. The wordpress authors.

I had all this other stuff that seemed grossly relevant about 20 minutes ago when I got distracted by the Wordpress 2.0 press release that’s been on my headlines page for weeks. Right now all I can remember is that I was going to say how we went up to Seb and Rachel’s in Oxford and played on Seb’s old consoles (a collection that rivals my own, though I don’t think he has a NES) and had dinner. Also I helped fix their internet connection in a role that was mostly reduced to consultancy because Seb really knew what he was supposed to do anyway. ALso I bought myself some Vimto and animal biscuits from the Oxford Co-Op.

Today my DS Flash cartridge arrived from Hong Kong, adressed to “James Ltunt” which is close enough for me to open it without any concern about mail fraud. It’s hideously complicated equipment (because it’s barely documented at all) and I’m slowly but surely figuring it out. I can currently play GBA Roms which has opened up a whole new avenue of games samplement, but I’m most interested in getting stuff like a NES Emulator and ScummVM DS up and running. And, obviously, because I’m a morally bankrupt thief, I’m interested in running commercial NDS Roms. I’m confident I’ll figure it all out though, or my name isn’t James Ltunt.
