Hey Seagate. Fuck you.

Just had the USB mini-B connector snap off the PCB inside one of your external hard drives. Seeing how you design your enclosures as if Rube Goldberg is your company’s lead product designer, I spend a good 20 minutes Googling my way through various sources of support when I finally reach your customer support forum. Thankfully one guy decided to make a post on how to open your elaborate device but sadly, your support team firmly believes that your customers should not be given the right or the knowledge to opening such devices.

The even more pathetic truth is, it turns out your products really are designed to remain sealed. The enclosure features clips that could only be prised open from the inside, meaning that once they’re clipped down there’s no opening these suckas up.

So once again Seagate, fuck you for being the cherry on top of what has been this utterly shit day.

you look like a bit of a tit

How long did it take for you to figure that one out?

Entertained myself this evening by updating my theme.

Now includes ask/response support (with embedded ask box), embedded album art with audio posts, audio play counts, tags, notes, Disqus comments, clock timestamping and a bunch of other feeds added to my friendfeed pulling in from just about every web site on the Internet I have an account on.

I’m really pleased with the result, the only thing that’s still missing is replies although the staff have yet to implement such a variable [ {Reply} ] though I don’t see why this isn’t reachable using {block:PostNotes} like replies are in the Dashboard.

Whatevs. Which of you have actually read this far? Thought so, love you all.

Good night!

Here's a test question so I can work on the CSS for answers in my theme, even though you never receive questions anyway.

And here’s a test answer! Even though, you know, never have to type answers anyway.

The joys of coding!

Do want.

Has it been three years already?!

February was a month of big milestones for us, possibly the most exciting of which was that you guys viewed Tumblr more than a BILLION times. That’s 36 million times a day, 25,000 times a minute, and more than 400 times a second!

To say thank you, we have some beautiful, free, and awesome features we’ll be pushing this week.

And follow us on Twitter for some special news.

Thank you!!

…and still not a dime in profit. That’s the truth.

It’s almost worrying how Tumblr has had such little downtime when you consider it’s business model, or lack of one should I say.

YES! IT’S FINALLY HERE! It only took a month to arrive!...

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 17:09:46 +0000

YES! IT’S FINALLY HERE!

It only took a month to arrive! After spending $15 on the CD, $30 on USPS Priority shipping (it was the only option available, I hate you USPS) and then a customs fee of £11.22 (that’s $16.88 for you Americans) which brings this 5-track E.P. to a grand total of $61.88 (or £41.11 in lovely British currency).

Sure, that’s a lot of cash for one CD, but look at how genuinely happy I look. That’s the joy that Julia Nunes’ music brings to my life. Lots.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go listen to this on repeat for the next 6 months.

No really, I do.

Ryo Yamazaki - Blinded By Light (Battle Theme from Final Fantasy XIII)

In less than 48 hours, this song is about to become the soundtrack to my life for the next month or so.

SO EXCITED.

THIN LIZZY “JAILBREAK”

greatest rock song ever.

This song playing during the jailbreak mission on GTAIV was a bit of an obvious choice. But every second of it was awesome.

DROP D TIME.

OH MY GOD. WATCH THIS.

I cannot wait for the Microsoft Courier journal (booklet PC). This video proves just how awesome Microsoft can be. And for the Apple lovers/MS haters out there, you won’t believe your eyes when you see this thing. I swear to god this is an Apple product in disguise.

Rumours slate this device for a mid-2010 release, although we still have yet to see this thing in action, though I hold my hopes high as the iPad just ain’t what I’m looking for.

It’s nice to know that my generation expresses its anger through tags on Hulu.

Awesome. Add your own tags!

Now testing: Pages

You can now add static pages to your blog, with a few very useful options. Head to your blog’s Customize page and click the “Pages” menu to get started. There are currently three types of Pages you can create:

Standard Layout. Create a simple page with a title and body using your current theme.

Custom Layout. Create a page with a completely separate layout.

Redirect. Forward a route to a page on another domain. Useful for maintaining links when moving your domain name over to Tumblr.

Developers: Check out the Theme Docs for instructions on implementing the new {block:Pages} tag.
