I translated an episode of ExtraCreditz

 Heya there, didn't want to give the impression that my life was pretty event-less in the last couple of years – because it totally wasn't! After I've made some rather important changes, I'm feeling very confident in myself right now. Well, comparatively. A small part of that was the realization that the people in my domain are surprisingly bad in the English language. In other words: I'm really good in English. I never really realized or acknowledged it – until now. (Well, until some time last year, when I actually did this). [...] (show me)

Behold! I made a Tee Shirt!

 I'm quite the fan of the idea of "expressive wardrobe" and I've often fantasized about the various colorful designs I'd like to show off. After I recently saw a friend create his own shirt, I felt encouraged enough to try it out myself. [...] (show me)

Mein PC-Erlebnis-Bericht, Whynachten 2o1o

 

Unbekannter Software-Fehler

Wir schreiben das Jahr 2o1o. Ein Tag vor Whynachten. Ich schalte meinen PC ein, weil ich heute wieder viel vor habe. Zum Beispiel kann ich mich endlich mal wieder mit diesem Hoellen-Projekt auf Delphi befassen. Doch was ist das? Der PC schaltet sich zwar ein, zeigt mir aber unschoene Dinge an. Was genau, daran erinnere ich mich noch nicht mal - so lange ist das schon her. Ich glaube, schon beim Booten des Betriebssystems schliesst Windows automatisch und schickt mich zurueck zum DOS-Startbildschirm mit dem BIOS Logo (aber sicher bin ich mir nicht). [...]

RABO Networks kann mich mal am Arsch lecken.

 Liebe Freunde, wenn ihr PC Teile braucht, macht einen WEITEN Bogen um den Online-Shop "RABO Networks". Einen inkompetenteren Saftladen habe ich im Leben noch nicht erlebt.[...](show me)

Delphi Sort StringGrid

 I am currently coding an application in Delphi, one that requires the handling of a StringGrid. Naturally, I wanted to enhance this data-rich object with a sorting capability, but - not to my surprise - Delphi doesn't provide one so you has to code your own. After I spent some time researching (1) how to detect a click on a StringGrid header (since the ordinary onClick doesn't cover that) and (2) how to sort a StringGrid once the chosen column has been determined. I am pretty much bewildered that there is so few documentation about it-- well, okay, one of the tasks. But the other seems completely unsolveable to the Interwebs.

Anyway! Here's what I did, and it does what is requested. [...]

Retail Game refuses to play

 I pre-ordered "Metroid: Other M" and was astonished to find out it wouldn't work on my console. A same-region retail disc, an "original" as you might want to call it, and it wouldn't start properly (black screen after the selecting the disc in the Wii Main Menu) without the correct update files. I mean, I get it, it makes total sense, but ... it's still a harsh situation, I think. [...](show me)

I just wanted to let you all know real quickly that I have already started working on a new design for the website. It's gonna be really different visually and I hope there is at least one person besides me who will like it. But I'm not finished yet, so - judging on my own laziness - I will probably need two more months of development (hopefully at most) until the final release.

I would love to dive right in right now and continue where I left off a few weeks ago but this weekend I have another "big" project running, and apart from that there's "this RPG", "this other RPG" - that is supposed to be read completely different (I can already see your confused faces ... Tri-Klops), "Red Dead Redemption" is already on its way - I'm just too multi-interested.
