Which reminds me, and I guess I’m late again with posting, but you can get a free Red Alert (yes, the original) @ the EA website. Yes, they actually give out free stuff too (the thieves!). But don’t forget, it’s no more than a commercial stunt to get you to preorder Red Alert 3.

Go and get it here, or direct links here: Soviet disc (0.5Gb), Allied disc (0.5Gb).

Dear Tuinslak,

EA has claimed some or all audio and visual content in your video Red Alert 3 Trailer. This claim was made as part of the YouTube Content Identification program.

Well, seems like Firefox is the most popular browser visiting this site. And on 2nd place.. Safari?! Who on earth uses Safari? Oh, but I guess mobile device, such as the iPhone & Symbian use webkit/Safari-like browser.

Well, let’s see if Google Chrome gets in that list. If only they’d release it for other OS’es too… :( Seems like good ol’ Windows isn’t that popular anymore.

Cool YouTube video, showing what happens when a meteor hits Earth.

From Fat Man.

For those using the PDA & iPhone wordpress plugin, which turns your blog into something more readable on a mobile device, don’t forget to add the Google analytics script to your footer.php (in both iphone-theme and pda-theme directory). As other plugins seem to be disabled.

This is actually also meant for me, as a reminder, for when I update the plugin. ;)

This blog post made my day. And the commenters even more. :)

Found on del.icio.us.

I hate having unread mail. I hate having spam. And most of all, I hate spam that asks for attention.

When receiving spam in Gmail, you get the annoying bold Spam (12353434) with ‘12353434’ being the number of unread spam messages.

With the introduction of Gmail Labs I’d hope to see an “automaticly mark spam message as seen” feature, which, well, I haven’t found yet.

Being tired of all these increasing spam numbers, and my daily efforts to “select all unread + mark as read”, I ended up writing a small PHP file which connects to the Gmail (using IMAP, so I asume you’ll need IMAP enabled in your settings..) and marks all spam messages as read. Running this script locally with a curl or cron every X time will solve most of your problems, I hope.

You’ll have to excuse me for this pointless post, I’m testing my Pingback options.

And yes, @sphere, even this summer was pretty poor…

Found a really cool blog post on Twitter yesterday night; really worth the time to read and to understand how 3G is actually working.
