¿Cuanto sobrevivirías encadenado a una litera con un velociraptor?

Pues yo 1 minuto y 6 segundos, aunque si me dan un boli que se prepare la lagartija esa :-)

I could survive for 1 minute, 6 seconds chained to a bunk bed with a velociraptor

Chuk-Munn Lee of Sun Microsystems Troubleshoots Java SE 6 Deployment

Un artículo que merece la pena leer a cualquiera que quiera hacerse un experto en java.

Chuk-Munn Lee of Sun Microsystems Troubleshoots Java SE 6 Deployment

This article is adapted from a talk that Sun Microsystems Java technology evangelist Chuk-Munn Lee presented at Sun Tech Days in Sydney, Australia, in March 2008. Based in Singapore, Lee works frequently with individual developers and software vendors, helping them to architect and prototype both their server and desktop-based Java applications. His more recent work has focused on Swing-based client applications. He also keeps ISVs up-to-date on the latest developments in the Java platform and what's on the horizon.

The talk explored ways to troubleshoot running Java applications, with a focus on Java SE 6.

Katy Perry - I Kissed A Girl

De vez en cuando me quedo pillado en alguna canción, como ésta, la habré escuchado más de 20 veces desde anoche. Y no es por el vídeo, aunque la muchacha está muy bien, a lo Jennifer Connelly, es tanto la canción como la forma de cantarla.

¿Crees que Australia existe y no crees en Dios?

Sigo sin ser ateo, pero con gente así me da vergüenza reconocer que no lo soy. Yo nunca he tenido la evidencia de que Dios existe (solo la fé) y el día que la tenga como el tipo al telefono iré al psiquiatra :-)

Tolerancia con las religiones

Aunque aún no soy ateo, ruego a Dios para que me ilumine y pronto lo sea :-)



A mi casa sólo vienen a predicar los testigos de Jehová, la próxima vez les predicaré acerca de la grandeza del Monstruo de Espagueti Volador

Pink - Dear Mr President Live In Wembley

Siempre he considerado a Pink como una gran artista pero esta canción me ha llegado especialmente hondo. Por si alguien en USA está indeciso o pensando en votar al partido Republicano, esta canción es para ti.



Y por si alguien no la pilla del todo (yo sin ir más lejos) la letra.

"Dear Mr. President"
(feat. Indigo Girls)

Dear Mr. President,
Come take a walk with me.
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me.
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly.

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?
What do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Are you proud?

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why?

Dear Mr. President,
Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say
No child is left behind?
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell.

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine.

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?

Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh

How do you sleep at night?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Dear Mr. President,
You'd never take a walk with me.
Would you?

Bloqueo del sonido entre programas en Ubuntu 8.04

Tras instalar ubuntu 8.04 noté que varios programas bloqueaban el sonido unos a otros (firefox, me-tv, mplayer) aunque no todos (audacious, usando alsa no tiene problemas).

La solución la he encontrado hoy navegando por la red

sudo apt-get install libflashsupport


tras reiniciar las aplicaciones afectadas el problema queda solucionado
