BP Spills Coffee

But on a more serious note, BP’s 8 Dumbest Mistakes: British Petroleum should be sued into oblivion & dismantled, as they obviously cannot safely operate oil rigs AND make incredible profits, and they’ve chosen the latter fuck-you-very-much.

Evil, greedy scumbags =/ I hope the karma police have a riot…

Oh, and if you want to visualise the immense scale of the oil as if it was centred on where you live, try this: http://www.ifitwasmyhome.com/ – That. Is. BIG….

If You Can See This Post…

r3dux | June 4, 2010

…then the DNS propagation has completed successfully and this site’s now living on a spanky new VPS! =D

Fuck Yeah!

Success! Next step: Email server install & config. That should be fun ;)

P.S. If you’re thinking that the site must already be up and running for me to be here and enter this post, you’re right – it is, but you can’t (or couldn’t) get to this VPS-hosted version of it as the DNS record for r3dux.org didn’t point to it; I had to hard-code the VPS IP address into my hosts file to be able to get here (while keeping links working) and test out the server before it could go live! Schneaky!

Bananas and Monkeys

r3dux | May 17, 2010

Found this when I hit StumbleUpon the other day and it made me grin, so I thought I’d share.. (original source unknown btw, even by the place I found it!):

Start with a cage containing five monkeys.

Inside the cage, hang a banana on a string and place a set of stairs under it. Before long, a monkey will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the banana. As soon as he touches the stairs, spray all of the other monkeys with cold water.

After a while, another monkey makes an attempt with the same result – all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Pretty soon, when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.

Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one. The new monkey sees the banana and wants to climb the stairs. To his surprise and horror, all of the other monkeys attack him.

After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs, he will be assaulted.

Next, remove another of the original five monkeys and replace it with a new one. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment with enthusiasm! Likewise, replace a third original monkey with a new one, then a fourth, then the fifth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked.

Most of the monkeys that are beating him have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs or why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey.

After replacing all the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, no monkey ever again approaches the stairs to try for the banana. Why not? Because as far as they know that’s the way it’s always been done round here.

And that, my friends, is how company policies are made.

I think there’s more than a grain of truth in that…
