Source Guru

So… First of all – I’d like to say a big welcome back to \sh, who, after all his problems, seems to be getting his life back on track. Good luck with it Stephan, and I hope it all goes well.

Anyways, back to me … I’ve been having a few problems of late, and it’s starting to get interesting. I’ve got a few health issues going on – and well – they’re not good… I’m currently having to wait for tests, and for test results and stuff – and all the waiting has gotten to me.

Anyway, due to all of this stuff – I’ve decided to make a fresh start with my life… Once I’ve paid off my rent and got my new house sorted out (my current lease ends at the end of the month – so I should be moving in with my friends once that’s over – buig mad rush to find a place before June now), I’m going to start making a few changes to myself.

First of all, I’m going to start contributing a lot more than I have been of late to both ubuntu, and other FOSS projects. I’ve not really been doing much lately, and I want to start contributing again, to get back that sense of accomplishment that I had when I was working back on breezy, and of course, I want edgy to be uber cool. Katapult is coming along in leaps and bounds of lates (when we get together and work) and I think that with a little hard work, and a lot of patience, we can make it up to an application that rivals the functionality of Quicksilver.

I’m also looking into moving out to America at some point in the future… Probably around this time next year. Thing is – I either need to convince my Company to let me transfer over there, or find another company to sponsor me for a Visa… At the moment, I’m currently eligible for an E3 Visa, if I can convince the company – but I don’t know – we’ll have to see. So, if anyone out there wants to offer me a job (preferably in the Daytona area (for personal reasons)) feel free to get in contact with me – (martin (at) sourceguru (dot) net)

 Anyway, I’m just writing this to kill time before I head off to work, and my bus should be arriving soon, so well – I guess I’ll go.

 And for those who read my post about Spam …. well – it’s nothing compared to the amount of email I’ve had in the past 3 weeks where I haven’t been on my own PC – I just checked it through webmail and I have just under 19,000 emails waiting for me. I think it may be time to turn off my mailing list subscriptions temporarily

106 Comments awaiting Moderation on my blog today.

 Guess how many of them weren’t spam…..

 Two.

Yes, that’s right. Two… It’s nice to know that these bots are here trying to sell drugs, online poker, and porn sites through my blog.

 It’s amazing what people are like nowadays – it’s just stupid. Spam should be in an easily filterable form and email only… or just non-existant.

 Now to hack away a little to auto-delete these comments – unless anyone knows of a nice WordPress plugin that’ll do it for me ?
