Tonkatruck

November 24th, 2006 5 Comments

I’m taking a couple months off work soon, to go traveling down under, which means I’ll need some money. Therefor I’m considering selling my wonderful orange Tonka-truck. If you live in Norway and feel the urge send me an email or leave a comment. The car is a 1982 Toyota Landcruiser HJ60 in very good [...]

Firefox is a horrible browser

November 23rd, 2006 No Comments

in fact, I’m using Microsoft Explorer 5.2 for Mac right now. … Woooah, put your flamethrowers and pitchforks down please. No, the reason for my Firefox outburst is a something I consider a substantial break against all things userfriendly in the history sidebar (in FF1.5 and 2). Let me make it clear that I’m a [...]

Not Suing Microsoft

November 16th, 2006 No Comments

But where will the kengaroos go?

November 15th, 2006 No Comments

Part of my studies, the main part actually, consisted of living in a different country, namely Australia. To be more presise, I lived in Perth, West Australia (not Scotland). For you in the not-know (it’s ok, I won’t blame you), it is entitled the Most Isolated City – in the World! By which I mean [...]

Yahoo!: Safari sucks

November 14th, 2006 No Comments

Or in their own words: Please download a compatible browser whereupon they go on to claim that IE5.5 among others would be a good choice. Excuse me?
