What has two thumbs and is the new admin for /r/Nokia?
That would be me. And I can't help thinking that this shameless tweet had something to do with it.
Thanks.
Now get on over there and post some links!

It took me an entire day to get this far. An entire MOTHERFUCKING DAY.
If you don't know what's going on I've borked my old Nexus One, and am trying to flash a recovery image on it from my Linux computer.
About as fun as it sounds...

Dr. Martens' forthcoming malpractice suit.
Cut to fall of 2010 when I buy my second pair, and they suck. Suck suck suck suck suck suck suck. The soles are so fucking painful that I'm pretty sure they've given me a case of plantar fasciitis.
The problem is that all the shoes, save for a "collector's edition", are now manufactured in Thailand. Not that I've anything against that particular country -- I've been there, nice place -- but whoever is making these things is not doing it like they used to in the UK.
So again, streek kids of Toronto, I've left you a little gift outside my favourite Queen Street shoe emporium. But beware: if I haven't already made it clear, they suck.

Saying goodbye to a pair of old friends...
I've had these camo-coloured iPaths for a long time. Too long, in fact -- stylish as they are, they're just not comfortable to wear anymore.
I finally found their replacements here, a new pair of, um... New Balances. As per the staff's instructions, I left the old ones right outside the store. So if you want 'em, come get 'em. Just treat them well, ok? Sniff...Wednesday, July 13, 2011

Audio Podcast #94: Something Stinks at the CRTC

This is what Google sounds like when it's pissed off.
Listen now:
Something Stinks at the CRTC(.mp3)
And to be clear, this isn't about how Google is saving Canadian content, but how fucked up old media is in this country...

Well, I guess it's war then...
I caught advance notice of this notice from my condo's gardiner. Yes, I have an outdoor cat, and it's going to be very interesting to see how the office goes about proving that found cat poop actually came from my cat.
I'll be taking my cues for all official correspondence with my condo management office from here :->

Irony or coincidence?
No sooner do I publish a blog post about the importance of the Nexus S to Canada than an OTA update appears and subsequently locks up my own NS. At least I'm not alone -- and, more importantly, my phone isn't bricked.
