Considering how slowly time seems to have passed of late, it's sure seems to have gone by quickly.

Have had plenty a restless night over the last few weeks for whatever reasons. My inhibitor has been suffering from capacity issues as a result. I may or may not have said things somewhat unbecoming of myself. Discussing if you're on chocolate-covering terms with someone, is not the sort of conversation I would typically engage in for example.

In other news... I has a car again. A '98 Passat with a hair over 300,000 Kilometers on the clock. Will do just nicely 'till I can find something I'd rather get. I'd quite like one of these, but may wait until winter's done it's thing before getting carried away.

How peculiar. It would seem my blog database went all kersplodie the other night. Fix'd - backups for the win!
Been in Prince George all week, getting me some edumacation on some 4G hardware - in this case, of the mobile-WiMax, aka; 802.16e variety.
I'm not entirely convinced that it's the right tool for the job if I'm honest... our network design and planning is far to volatile for them to be implemented correctly. Unfortunately, that's not a good enough justification to give it a stamp of non-approval.
Many fun months await as a result, I'm certain.

I started this post about 2200hrs last night, and I'm not entirely certain 0345 is exactly the best time to finish it after a week of sleep deprivation, but since I can't sleep, might as well do something productive.
Well, maybe not productive, but at least keep my mind pre-occupied for a little while. I'm getting mighty sick of repeatedly arguing with the little fucking co-workers that live inside my head.

On Minecraft... the two worlds I have running are pretty much starving my poor server for resources. Not sure if I'm better served rolling the two worlds into one VM, or just move them to a dedicated machine entirely.
I say again - it's really too bad Minecraft is powered by Java. The horsepower and resources the server consumes are almost as bad as something else I constantly refer to when providing examples of how crappy Java apps can be. Don't get me wrong, Java can be amazing in the right hands, but more often than not, the majority of what's typically churned out is shit.

Hmm, best call it at that. This is turning into a sweary rant-fest.

But before I do - fuckin' ay.
