What happened last month?

Posted in Life, sneakyBlog, Technology | Hardware by Wim Leers on the March 20th, 2006

Two days until the moment where this blog wouldn’t have gotten a new post in a month… Shame on me! But, I do have some sham: I’ve been sick for a week and before that I had one week (of well filled up) vacation. But that still leaves two weeks to post something, of course. Well… I still have sort of an excuse for that: there simply hasn’t been much interesting or remarkable news on the internet.
Except for maybe the fact that Windows XP finally boots on a MacBook Pro. The happy hacker, narf2006, is now about USD 14.000 richer thanks to the contest. But what else has happened? The Xbox 360 DVD firmware has been hacked, flash memory will get alot cheaper in the next few months, in France p2p downloading might become legal, a MacBook Pro’s MagSafe connector has melted down and a 1 TB RAM drive was built by Texas Memory Systems.
That’s all fairly interesting, but either too expensive, too difficult or too useless.

Domain Transfer

Did that suck!

Did you know that a domain transfer actually WORKS as advertised?! It said: ‘A domain name transfer will take between 5 and 7 business days‘. For once, you get even more than asked for, completely for free: I got eight business days… Almost two weeks…

Finally back online…

sneakyBlog launched!

Posted in sneakyBlog by Wim Leers on the November 18th, 2005

A memorable day: the launch of sneakyBlog (or imaged: :sneaky: blog)! Well, we’ll see later how memorable this blog will be… Let’s just assume the ‘memorability-part’ for now :D . This will be a blog in its original concept: a website where you can track the evolutions in someone’s life and the weird (and not-so-weird) experiences of a person. Just anything that’s worth telling the world.

First let me explain this blog’s title. It’s obviously the contraction of sneaky + blog. (Don’t expect illegal things :matrix: .) But where did that ’sneaky’ get from? Simple. My nickname on all websites is Bâshrat the Sneaky, a nickname that I’ve once created through some nickname generator. I never stopped using it or turned to another one, because I really really liked it. Don’t you? :) Bâshrat the Sneaky’s blog would, well…, sort of disturb the unique sound of my nickname, wouldn’t it?

Some of you may know me thanks to my project “Bâshrat the Sneaky’s DriverPacks“, from uAwiki.org or from one of the many forums I’m a member of. Others may know me by… no, you can’t possibly know me by anything else :afterboom: .

Well, I think this is enough for my first post!
