Fantastic. Now, combined with openssh socks proxy option I can work around some broken proxy in absurdly pseudo-secured environments and actually do what I’m meant to.

Excellent additions to an already awesome plug-in that disappeared as soon as it appeared. I hope this one will now stay for good.
Astonishment
Someone tried to break into our flat. The guy cracked the door open, and both he and my girlfriend stood astonished before he escaped down the stairs.

A better tumblr dashboard widget. I don’t really care about photo posting from dashboard, but the lack of title input for the previous one was kinda disappointing.
Precognition
I don’t like this weird irrational feeling that a specific piece of hardware is gonna die on me. Lately it’s my home server’s hard disk. Hold on lil’ NSLU2.
Relativity
After having worked three days straight on a XP machine, opening up my Mac felt like stepping out of a Dacia Logan straight into an Aston Martin. Everything from font smoothing to display quality to tactile feeling is so much up-standard. Some say Macs are overpriced given the components, but the whole is just so much more than the simple sum of them.
Emptiness
Trying to use Inbox Zero method. Not sure I’ll benefit from it.
Pain
There’s nothing worse for a geek than being forced to attend a training course on a known domain. The feeling of lost time is intolerable. Up to the point of enduring physical pain.
Movement
I will now import a few entries from my twitter/identi.ca accounts.
Surprise
Oh, a dashboard widget. This gets interesting.
Expectations
Will this tumblr thing fit my needs? We’ll see…
