Ronin And Facebook

Cue the whiners and the protesters, Facebook is making changes in its privacy policies once again. By now we should realize that if we don't want the world to know personal details about us, don't post it on Facebook.

In the opening scenes of Ronin, Sam, played by Robert de Niro, infiltrates a dark for hire group of rag tag criminals. Deidre, played by Natasha Mcelhone, asks him what he was doing. And he replies:

"Lady, I don't get into situations I don't know how to get out of."

Appindicator In Natty Ubuntu 11.04

Previously ranted about the blind alley Ubuntu 11.04 seemed to be leading us when it comes to some applications not being ready yet for the dropping of system tray.

So far I have added Shutter, Dropbox and Keepassx in the white list. Before... After.

New Converge ICT Plan Max with Sky Now

I pulled the trigger on Converge Max plan 400Mbps with Sky channels. I went to their sales office and asked for the upgrade. No charge at all and they didn't ask me to return the old modem. It looks like they will pull it when they install the new modem.e It came with a black box for the TV. The configuration is easy but it took me 3 days to figure out the Wired connection.
