My blog was added to Planet Grep today!
After being a reader of Planet Grep for a long time I decided it was time to submit my blog, and look, here I am :-).

Hello Planet Grep!

And thx Wouter :-)

I disabled reCaptcha today, and installed the drupal Mollom module.
Normally this would mean that when you are not a spammer, you will not be asked to input a captcha - unless Mollom is unsure about your comment.

I'm looking forward to getting to know Mollom :-)

UPDATE

Mollom seems to work very nice. As I remembered suddenly that I liked the idea of Dag about a warning module I installed and I will keep this site moderated. You never know when a spam slips through...

Well,

After having bought my Asus eeepc 900 for about 1 month now, I finally started looking for a solution to my problem: the battery!
At first I didn't really care about the battery because I was playing a lot with it with only the power adapter connected. I fiddled around alot with some distro's ( eeebuntu, ubuntu-eee which is now called easy peasy and cruncheee).

After I finally settled for cruncheee for a while now I started to notice the EXTREMELY POOR battery life of my eeepc 900. So I started a quest to find out WHY. It didn't take me long however to discover that Asus seems to FSCK their buyers over and deliver the eeepc 900 with an inferiour 4400mah battery in Europe for the same price as a 5800mah equipped netbook!

They did - however - deliver models with a (slightly better) 5800mah battery to nearly any hardware testing site/magazine. Thereby fooling their customers into believing a (rather normal) battery life of +- 3hrs but delivering only a marginal 1,5hrs of battery to the foolish(me included) customers who decided to buy their netbook in a normal store rather then on the internet(where you might find a US model).

I am really really PISSED OFF and DISAPPOINTED and I feel FSCK'D by Asus.

Conclusion:

Planning on buying a netbook? Please:

• Buy an Acer One
• ... or any other brand you like.
• OR ... If you really really want an Asus, make sure you get a US model!

fsck Asus!

Got this one in my mailbox:

A linguistics professor was lecturing to his English class one  day. "In English," he said, "A double negative forms a positive. In some  languages, though, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative.  However, there is no language wherein a double positive can form a  negative."

A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah,  right."

Although I dislike 'funny' FW: mails I liked this one, and I'll share! But not trough mail :-)
