New Year’s Day

I had a rather peculiar New Year’s Day, in that I spent most of the night like Dr. Adel Ortega of Bunsen:

You can’t see them here, but the trash bags were off to the right. And yes, that is a police van sliding door you can see on the picture.

Because I took some pictures got [...]

KOF XII: Athena

What have they done to her??? Taken from the KOF XII in Japanese.

It looks like after gaining weight and fighting it off she had a big depression which she then cured by having non-stop cosmetic surgery on her face, like some people who are famous just because of it. What happened to the Athena of [...]

Comments on site

I just noticed Gengo fucks up the permalinks for any comment left on the site.
When you — the visitor — leave a comment you get a “Not Found” error immediately after leaving the comment. Plus, when clicking on a comment link on the sidebar you get the same thing. The original link (which you can [...]

Rains

The weather was hellish a week back and a lot of people is uploading videos to YouTube to prove it. I’m just putting up a few in this post:
This one shows one of the crown jewels of the current local government, the Via Rapida, turning into a canal:

This other one is a collage of pictures:

WordPress 2.7

Managed to upgrade without having Gengo bitch out. Here’s what I did:

Deactivated all plugins except Gengo
Upgraded
Re-configured Gengo settings and applied changes.
Cleared browser cache.
Viewed site. It worked.

If it doesn’t work, try playing around with the Language settings but remember to clear your browser cache every time you do this. Gengo gives [...]

VirtualBox 2.0.6

Do upgrade. It makes things Just Work.
Right now I’ve got my Nokia E62 connected to a WinXP instance without having to do any additional work than what I did before. So it’s all good now.
Hey! My third gen iPod works too! The halcyon days of Winamp + ml_ipod have come back. No more suffering around [...]

Warlock

Recorded this outside of Virus Club over in Ave. Revolucion. The only thing I dislike is how crappy it looks… the YouTube people need to work a bit harder on their transcoding tools. The original AVI file was converted into an h.264 MP4 file that looks almost the same as the original, but once it [...]

Yeah, me too

When I have to cross the wasteland time and time again to see him. And you.

Miguel Bosé

So I went, and managed to stay in the area for people who paid $500 for a ticket when I just paid $250.

So?
I’ll upload some videos later. Links to them will go in the comments.

Fabulosos Cadillacs

This past Friday the Fabulosos Cadillacs came to Tijuana. Even though the place didn’t fill up — I thought it would — the ambiance was great and I’m sure all those who went had a good time.
Because of the economy I got a ticket for $440 pesos. When I got to the Estadio Caliente and [...]
