Shout out to my fellow not American programmers that are constantly getting the spelling of colour wrong. Constantly having you word processor nag at you because you spent too much time programming and are spelling it with a letter U, or constantly having your debugger nag at you because it doesn't know what "colour"4

In the war on bandwidth consumption, work has cut out torrent access. So I, like a child look for porn (actually I was doing that too), found a way around. I use http://filestream.me to cache my torrents. Then go to http://Uptobox.com file host and login to my account, that i created with my fake mailinator.com email address, where I use the remote URL upload feature to download my files from filestream. Change the file name to VM-update.dll (I don't know why I chose a DLL originally, but I release no one asks why you were downloading a DLL). The download. All of this, except the downloading is done in Opera Web Browser with VPN on (a little extra paranoia goes a long way).2

I use Apache .htaccess to rewrite requests to .git folder to return 404. Why? Because next web told me I'm using git wrong, that they directory contains source control compromising information but I'm too lazy to figure out what to do and--this is the most important part--I don't know what I'm doing.

My whole life is one giant NullPointerExeception, looking for things, for people, for objects that either don't exist or don't exist where i'm looking.1
