SCORP!O Feat. KAOS EFFECT - Vzpon In Padec

Couple of my friends recorded a video for their new/old single: Vzpon in Padec. They RAP about success and downfall and the whole story will consist of one more video (I think). Anyway, It's cool, I like it, here it is. (It's in Slovene).

Lately I've been

.. playing arround with my blog design. I think this one will stick for a while now.

- fasting. This month (Ramadan) is the Islamic month of fasting. We don't eat nor do we drink anything from true dawn till sunset. It's nice or should I say it was nice, because it's coming to an end in a couple of days. It teaches you patience and sacrifice and It gives your day a totally different meaning.

- making websites

- fixing people's LAN's

- watching "The Deadliest Catch" on Discovery

and some other stuff...

cPanel


I've had some issues with cPanel and had to contact their customer support service. They are very fast and professional. Well, at one occasion one of their representatives stepped on my nerves but then I his superior contacted me and we worked things out. That's what I like in some U.S. companies, professionalism. I'm sticking with cPanel because I know I can rely on them when the time comes.

Mortal Kombat like you've never seen it before

I bet you've never seen this FINISH HIM ending ;)

New [old] server


I've found an old computer that was catching dust in a corner of my room so I decided to make something useful out of it. It's an old 800 MHz Athlon with something over 300 RAM and 20GB hard drive. I'll install pfSense and make a nice router out of it. I have a couple of external hard drives that I don't use, so I'll probably hook them up to backup stuff too.
pfSense is an open source firewall based on m0n0wall/FreeBSD. It has a nice web interface and it's quite easy to configure.
Here are some screenshots of pfSense: http://www.pfsense.org/screenshots/

Igraj.me


Today I've started working on a new project. When .me domains went public I bought igraj.me (translation: play.me). It's been some time since then so I decided to put it to good use. I'm going to make a flash game portal but with a different approach and touch. I've scrambled up a logo in about 5 minutes but that's probably not the final version. Now I have to get working on the code and planning. I'll probably spend a couple of hours writing stuff down in my notebook (paper one) before I even touch the computer.

MSN messenger, Google Talk, Skype


I've been trying to talk to my sister online (she is in Norway) for couple of days now, so I've made some tests of the current popular communication software.
1. MSN Messenger couldn't even make an audio connection, it has probably something to do with msn's ports and routers on the other end. I gave up there.
2. Then we tried Gtalk. It connected immediately and we talked for a few days. Everything wen't O.K. Since I don't live with my parents anymore, we don't share the same computer but we all wanted to talk to each other at the same time. That means that we had to have a conference call. I remembered that Skype has that option so we all installed it.
3. Skype has had the best performance overall. The sound quality was much better than that of Gtalk and Windows Live Messenger. There were some glitches in sound every now and then but that was probably my sisters internet connection from the campus. Now we must try the video conference.

p.s.: Oh yeah, If you haven't noticed, my blog header now changes everytime the page get's refreshed ;)

Cool icons from Turbomilk




Here are some cool icons I found at Turbomilk.com, I've packed them all in one file so it's easier to download. Click here to download.

Where to live


It seems that Zürich is the best place to live, again, according to BusinessWeek.com.

And another thing, a girl that works at CERN (lhc lhc lhc lhc), has made a rap video about, guess what? LHC, yeah, the Large Hadron Collider. September 10th is comming and if we are to die, listening to some RAP won't do us harm.

Halite


Is your .torrent client a memory hog? Well even if it isn't, there is still room for improvement and that's why someone came up with Halite. A torrent client who's name came from a mineral (google it).
It's still in it's development stages but it looks promising. It's so darn light that it puts even microtorrent to shame (www.utorrent.com). I'm giving it a try.

foobar2000



foobar2000 is a media player, something like winamp but much faster and light on the system resources. I've been using it since it's launch. The reason why I switched to foobar is mainly winamp's bloated feel [and look]. It has quite a few functions but the only important thing is the fact that it plays music. People think that music sounds better in winamp, well frankly, it doesn't.
Don't get me wrong, winamp is a great player, I use it from time to time but If you have an older computer(and windows) foobar2000 is a great choice.

Ramadan brings back memories


Bosnian ćevapi from the Baščaršija district of Sarajevo and Banja Luka are probably the most famous ćevapi. Travnik and Tuzla are known for their ćevapi made of beef stewed with spices. This dish is very popular in some parts of former Yugoslavia as well. The stew is poured on lepinja or somun flatbread and few chunks of meat left there. Banja Luka is known for ćevapi which are multiple rolls (usually four) joined together. Bosnian ćevapi are made from two types of minced beef meat, hand mixed and formed with a funnel. Formed ćevapi are grilled.

ORIGINALNI BOSANSKI PROIZVOD

Ćevapi ili ćevapčići su bosanski nacionalni specijalitet sa roštilja i najpoznatiji bosanski brand u inozemstvu. Riječ je o malim valjušcima od mljevenog mesa, mahom teletine, sa dodatkom bijelog i crvenog luka, te različitih začina. Prosječna dužina ćevapa je oko 5 cm. Ćevapi se prže na roštilju, a tradicionalno se služe u lepinjama natopljenim umakom od prženja, uz dodatak sitno sjeckanog crvenog luka. Ćevapi se tradicionalno služe u ćevabdžinicama, koje su u Sarajevu u najvećem broju smještene na Baščaršiji.
Uz ćevape se mogu služiti i mliječni proizvodi kao: jogurt, kiselo mlijeko, kefir ili kajmak u lepinji. Ćevapi se u Bosni i Hercegovini služe u različitim porcijama, a postoje i regionalne razlike u pripremanju i obliku ćevapa.

A few interresting things




- facebook will be switching to the new design de facto. so that means that you can say goodbye to the old one in about a week.
- ford manufactured a diesel fiesta that can do 65 mpg (about 4 l/100 km) but it won't be sold in Americas. apparently they don't like diesel there. they refer to it as the smelly stuff that runs tractors.
- Google turned 10 last year, but their logo stated 9 ;)
- LHC will not destroy us (apparently)
- five cheap tricks tv shows use to keep us watching

If we are to day next Wednesday then I'm taking this opportunity to say goodbye to you all. You are safe to eat in McDonalds, it doesn't kill that fast.

Money



So the other day I decided that It's time to start collecting some debts that people owed me. Most of them answered their phones but one guy didn't, even though I saw him that day in town. So me and my friends decided to pay him a visit (even though I don't do that kind of things). People tend to soften up when they see baseball bats. No one got hurt but the point of the story is that people will fuck with you until you decide to take things into your own hands.
