SketchMeUp Scottie!

Since the release of Google's tool Sketchup (Not the pro one ;)) I've been longing to give it a go. The results were pretty darn nice.

I had to get a quote from my builder (Without him actually coming home!) and I gave him a rough sketch of what needs to be done - He came back with this monstrous quote, which made me think - Yep! He reckons I need to build a new house!

What a load of Hyperbole!! McIntyre mate - Get hold of yourself you git!

I couldn't believe how patronising Mcintyre was. I think he made a complete fool of the Swagap people and himself!

Why does he want to invite them to UK to see our culture? He himself says - They are the only people who are hell bent on keeping their tradition and culture and allows no infiltration of other customs. Do you really think once they come here and go back, They will just go back to their old traditional way of living? you Silly old fool! You should have stuck to carrying your laptop and phone in Brixton - proving how Macho you are with an army of goonies to protect you!

Also! I couldn't belive the way he was trying to find *What makes a Swagap women tick*! Hold on to your guns Maccie boy!! No Offence! The Swagap men will tend to go a bit cannibalistic, if they find out what you were upto.

Issue with 2007 Nissan Altima and Infiniti G35 sedans!!

Nissans wireless Tech device I-keys, which is supposedly designed to allow drivers to start their cars at push button, encountered a major setback today as they found out that it can erase the electornic code on keys which disables the locking and start up of the cars! Now thats a bummer isn't it!

"The car won't start and the I-Key cannot be reprogrammed." they said!
Welcome to the world of Datsun!

Multi Byte blessing!

Whilst investigating a Thai Glyph
Issue, I came across an interesting observation. Thai character cluster consists of up to four parallel lines which is

-Base line ( pertains to consonants etc..)
-Upper line ( Diacritic )
-Lower line ( Diacritic /upper vowel)
-Line above the upper line (Upper Diacritic)

If you look at a good Thai language engine, a character cluster can contain up to three input characters given in the picture below



So think again when you ask someone in the interview : how many bytes does a char occupy : he might answer - multi byte( Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean)!! Recruit him. He knows what he's talking about.

Rabbit is a no show now!

This blog is a continuation of [something].[something][a t][something][d o t][something]! which is discontinued due to so many unknowns. Enough said.

Just had a mail from Purple saying - the rabbit I have right now does not support WPA [Oui. Je comprends - et cesse de me traiter comme un imbécile!!!] - much to my annoyance. Grrrrr!

Damn them for this! Have to shell out a tenner for a cheap WEP-ooter now just for the Rabbit and Roku soundbridge. Didn't they hear about Atheros chipset (luring them to use madwifi) before I wonder!!!


Finding it so hard to fill in words. Maybe it's because I'm just about to go home to see me lovely ones... Will doodle tomorrow!
