Donald, where’s yer troosers?
Almost the whole day today I've been reciting a particular song in my head for no reason whatsoever. It has something catchy to it.
I first came across it when I was watching the "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" series' final episode.
Some variation to the original tune by me:
I just came down from the Isle of Skye,
I'm not very big but I'm awful shy.
All the lassies cry as I walk by
"Donald, where's yer troosers?"Let the wind blow high, let the wind blow low
Through the streets in my kilt I'll go
All the lassies cry, "Hello!", sayin,
"Donald, where's yer troosers?"I went down to London town,
To have a little fun in the underground
All the lassies turned their heads around, sayin,
"Donald, where's yer troosers?"Let the wind blow high, let the wind blow low
Through the streets in my kilt I'll go
All the lassies cry, "Hello!", sayin,
"Donald, where's yer troosers?"The lassies love me every one
But they must catch me if they can
You cannae put the breeks on a highland man, sayin,
"Donald, where's yer troosers?"
Google launches its own dictionary!
Apparently google.com decided to launch its own dictionary without telling anybody about it:

Enjoy!
PS: I prefer LEO, Cambridge Dictionaries Online, Merrian-Webster and Urbandictionary over Google's somewhat yet limited dictionary.
Force Firefox Add-ons to work with Firefox 3.6 betas!
If you already are using Firefox 3.6 betas then you probably already figured that some of your add-ons are not working...because of their compatibility.
Well, to be honest not every add-on needs a huge code change, some of them simply need their compatibility status updated, most of them work with 3.6 anyway. At least mine do...
I wanted Identi.fox and Echofon running, which I way I turned of the Extension Compatibility Check! Here's how to force your Add-ons to work with 3.6+ betas.
- Type "about:config" in your Firefox url bar
- Search for "extensions.checkCompatibility.3.6b"
- If you have this entry change it from "true" to "false"
- If this entry doesn't exist, create it via:
- Right click your mouse -> "new" -> "boolean"
- Type in "extensions.checkCompatibility.3.6b" for the new entry and set it to false
This is how it looks finally:

Enjoy your add-ons, but bear in mind there's a reason that the add-on compatibility check is there!
How to enable the New Google Search!
Apparently google.com has a new search design:
How to enable it:
- Go to google.com
- Copy/Paste this into your web browser address field and hit enter:
javascript:void(document.cookie="PREF=ID=20b6e4c2f44943bb:U=4bf292d46faad806:TM=1249677602:LM=1257919388:S=odm0Ys-53ZueXfZG;path=/; domain=.google.com"); - Reload google.com
Bear in mind, I have no idea how to revert this change. Still I like it this way much more!
Use Sony NW-A3000 without SonicStage Software and hack its Volume Limiter!
After a long time I wanted to use my Sony NW-A3000 then I remembered why I rarely use it: Its goddamn awful piece of garbage software called "SonicStage". SonicStage for Sony's Walkman is like the iTunes for the iPod.
Without it you can't transfer your songs to your Sony NW-A3000 player,...or so I thought until yesterday! There are a few ways to transfer your songs to the player, let's start with the easier one, shall we?
