Last weeks of school

Posted on by

First day back from a so called 2 week holiday, which I really hated. I hated even more than usual. Over the 2 week holiday I worked for Data #3, for RTSS (Rio Tinto Shared Services) at BSL (Boyne Smelters Limited) for a much large pay than you typical KFC shift. Which is why my blogging rate has declined. It was nice working, compared to the usual grind of school.

The thought of how annoying school is compared to the work force killed me the whole time, although the day wasn’t all that bad. For school I have an English assignment that requires reading a biography about a person and then using that info to create a radio broadcast like clip. I’ve decided to do Richard Stallman, which is the creator of GPL and GNU and stuffes. His Bio is awesome so far and loving it, half way through chapter three and can’t wait to read the rest.

I suggest you have a read and check out his driving force to defeat closed source operations.You can get it here It’s a really good read and it’s released under GPL so you can download it for free :>.

In other news I got a Nvidia 8600GT graphics card, which I’ve put in my dads computer so I can play these new games, that my Macbooks Intel GPU couldn’t cope with. This calls for a LAN party to test it out, which will occur this weekend. We have aircon in the house now, so keeping the rooms cool will be easy now.

Swam in the pool today for the first time this season with a few of my mates. It was good fun and a good cool down. I expect it to get very hot this year.

Over and out.

Came back from my holiday today :>. Pretty good, I would upload photo’s but I have too many and their to large. I bought a Western Digital 320gb External Hard Drive, which is pretty sweet, and I’m about to catch up with some mates tonight for a LAN. It’s good to see that my server, modem, ISP, UPS, Power, or any cables didn’t pop it while I was gone. I made some pretty useless python scripts while I board in the car too. Here’s the output of one.

And the code

lol = [” “,”‘”, “.”, “-”,”/”,”\\”,”]”,”[”,”}”,”{”]
line =”
width = int(raw_input(”Size?”))
import random
for a in range(1, len(lol)):
for z in range(1,width/3):
for x in range(1,width + 1):
if x in range(0, width + 1, z):
line = line + lol[a-1]
else:
line = line + lol[a]
u = random.randint(0,len(line))

print line[u:]+line[:u]
line = ”
print lol[-1]*width
