Twenty years
Twenty years... that's how long it's been since I created this account on LJ.
Twelve years... since I started Pale Moon
Nine years... since my last journal entry
Four years... since I lost my dog
Three years... since I last moved
Two years... of isolation due to COVID
One year... since things got really grim around Pale Moon
Nine months... since I ( Read more... ) -
XBox One
So I heard some basics about the XBox One... And apparently it's a potential privacy nightmare, basically because of 2 things:- They want you to be on-line as much as possible (severely restricting off-line play)
- They have a built-in camera and microphone that is always on (motion-tracking, so it can even just be used when motion is detected)

Change of job
So, after 5 years I'm getting a break from the company I've been doing translation work for, at least for the next two months.

As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow

Long time...
Maybe I should get back into the habit of keeping a journal. As it is, I have stuff I really want to write down but don't really get the incentive to do right at that moment. Not sure how much I'll be sharing with friends or the world, either, as I want to avoid unnecessary drama when people "find out" what has been written about them (yay furries ( Read more... ) -

RIAA pirating $9 million worth themselves.
Found this and thought I'd share. Talk about hypocrisy - suing people to hell and back, and then pirating torrents themselves of TV series... 60 episodes at that.

Stay away from Havehost.com/centriohost.com and affiliated hosting companies.
Plain and simple: they will screw you over.
They have a website full of false and misleading information:- "At Centriohost we understand that our customers' websites are mission-critical." - by not providing a way to transfer a site without extensive downtime, they have shown ( Read more... )
