Bloody brilliant, now I’ve got bad sectors in the middle of ubuntu – why couldn’t it have been XP 🙁

Really cool and scarey game. lose/lose is based on the old school top-down shoot-em up but the aliens in the game are based on a random file on your computer. You kill an alien and the file is deleted but if you’re killed then the game is deleted. Really wanna play it but feeling a bit scared – might have to borrow someone else’s computer 🙂

Scarey times

Had a rough coupla days recently. Grub went bad on me and wouldn’t let me boot into ubuntu or windoze but i’ve managed to eventually sort that out and am now able to make isos again. And then overnight I get an email telling me that my site has been taken offline due to unusual activity. All I did was install WordPress for the supporting website to the project. Not sure if the unusual activity referred to the WordPress files or the fact that I was finally installing something new – bit cheeky if the latter! Anyways, got an apology from them and if you can read this then I’m still up and running.
