London, now what?

I'm in London right now.. Have no idea what I should do. Called a friend and asked, he pointed me in a general direction to some street where there are lots of record stores. Trying to find it now..

Small icons in tabs sucks!

Found this online: http://kazhack.org/?post/2008/12/02/Small-tabs-Firefox-3

Works really niceley on my netbook, and I did as the author changed it on my main computer as well; there is no use to have all that text on all tabs, right?

Perl 5.8.8 sucks, or the lack of Perl 5.10 on my box sucks! Really

Been struggling with a regexp using perl since I couldn't get sed to work as I wanted (mainly "+" sucks with sed).

Reading config from database sucks!

I'm working on a new site and I wanted an easy way to read config for a user from the database. Earlier I've stored all the config variables in the user table, but this leaves a problem when developing; adding a new parameter means that you'll have to add a new entry in the user table. So, why not use one table for config and then have a default value stored in the database as user 0? Read more...

Keynotes suck

Today there will be a keynote held by Apple.. I'm only concerned since I know it will be expensive for me in the long run.. I do want a new mac mini, eventhough my current one works just fine as a plex media center.. It would be nice if apple could implement audio over the mini display port so I don't have to have a toslink cable connected to my reciever for both my media center and ps3, I want to connect a cable from my tv instead..

Air Canada sucks!

The two last times I've traveled with Air Canada there has been no video screen at the seats, but this time there is.. Yay!

Additionally:
This might be a "really". The stewardess on this flight is not representive for canadians; they are good looking. This is something you can't say about the women I've seen in Montreal..

Being two hours late sucks, really!

There was some part broken (missing?) on the airplane so we had to wait for two hours before boarding. I don't really mind, I still get paid..

However it does not take the pain out of waiting, I have had two beers just hit that sleep aphex after dinner so I'm quite tired right now and I have to stay awake for some time now. The question is if I should skip sleeping all together so I wont be that tired and jet-lagged tomorrow in Montreal?

Appart from the delay the stay in Heathrow was quite ok, but it has to be said that the bacon at TGI's should not be allowed to be called bacon; bacon is thin and crisp what I got was anything but that..

Hmm, just realised that I might only be one hour late, timezones sucks! ;)

No enemy showed up at the gate sucks, really!

Hey you who did not show up at the gate, you're my enemy!

We're right now waiting for some luggage to be taken off the plane.. How can one check in and then not show up at the gate? Just plain stupid! We're 30 minutes late now, happy happy happy joy joy joy!!

But I still have two hours to kill at Heathrow..
