v.6 Une poupée qui fait non
A couple of conspiracy thoughts have been wrestling with my mind last two days.
The financial crisis has put a lot of strain on companies throughout the world and there are layoffs on daily basis. Now, who can benefit on this and why?
Yeah, you´re right it´s the greedy stockbrokers who bought and sold useless stocks and banks that mortgaged more than 9 times their own value.
alright, this we already know...
"Who´s going to make the biggest profit on a coming depression?"
McDonnalds and the insurance companies course!
What do people do when they don´t have enough money for food?
They buy cheap food, unhealthy and un-environmental products.
What do people do when they tend to get fat? (there are lot of answers on that one..)
They get sick, get hospitalized and have to eat drugs instead of food.
Isn´t it cruel? Well, it´s probably only a good story for some coming best seller by some Michael Moore dude but similar actions have been made in the past by such companies, so don´t get too surprised.
For more conspiracy thoughts I can recommend the movie Zeitgeist Addendum, and if you haven´t seen the first one, do it!
Have a great weekend!
v.6 wednesday
Today I discovered how easy it is to convert a avi-file into flash, it´s so simple in CS3 that I wonder what those webdesigners must have cursed when converting before and probably feel a terrible relief at the same time as they feel a cold breeze throughout there spine.
Now when it´s so easy anyone coluld do it...but those that feel that kind of chill should relax, ActionScrpit is still a hell (when you don´t know it).
it´s time fore some brainstorming whith me and myself, I must find a new angle to approach my work so that I don´t forget anything.
My office space:
v. 6 Disaster
Last Thursday something awful happened, my computer crashed and I was afraid that 2 weeks work was wasted. The truth is that the computer did not completely crash it just kept rebooting over and over and it seemed impossible to login to windows. I read at different forums at the internet that could help me and I got quite a good idea of what the error was. Sometimes windows can damage its own files during compressing "old files" and I think that was what happened.
I tried for almost over a day to somehow recover the files that were damaged in windows so I could get all my files in a safe place before re-installing the OS. Suddenly windows started in a safe mode, quickly and fast I copied all my documents to my external HD. I fixed all that I could fix in windows and everything seemed to be promising but I was wrong.
The next day windows didn´t start and the rebooting occurred almost before I even could get in to the setup.
Today everything is gone from my C: and the old XP-os is replaced with Vista and I hope it will function better this time. I´ve been re-installing every single program that I had before the "Crash" and it has taken its share of time, no actual work has been done. But hey, there are heaps of people working only with this kind of solutioning and re-installning.
AND...lesson has been learned, I got to make back-ups more often.
