Long ago I used to often like a beer to 'take the edge off', and open my mind a bit, and get on really achieving some nice work, but toward the end of my drinking career, I gave that up when I found booze, very especially beer, made me lazy and only opened my mind to better things in life than work, like doing nothing.

This Sunday I tried to hack my soundcard; managed to get a couple more channels integrated into Pulseaudio.
Not perfect yet, I'll be replacing the card with one that claims Linux as it's home, but I did a double take when sitting down with plenty of beer and I entered a new, 3-D world of music and video.

Once
per a year I try drink so match that I cannot separate between HW interrupt to SW exception. ;P
Twice per a week I drink a wine for to be softly drunk.
My doctor say
me to drink one glass of red wine per day, but I forgot to do this.

So I was walking along the beach and I could not help but think about that final scene with Charlton Heston. Happens every time except when the beach is crowded - it's usually pretty quiet early in the day. Weird.

Yes, it is about todays big boxing match (hope this doesn't get caught by the spam filter).
I am at work at the moment, but I hope I will be able to watch the main event. I just don't know which of them to root for or who I think will win. It looks like the experts are tipping Mayweather to win if the fight goes the distance, but think that Pacquiao could end it early. They are both pretty darn good.
Based on a couple of fights I have seen in the past, I think I am going with Mayweather.

I'm not paying $100 to watch two guys hit each other.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

$100  . Is that what they are charging for the pay-per-view?
I would not pay that either. I will be watching it at a bar where I don't have to pay that much (to see the fight  ).

I ended up working so late that my plans fell through. But it turns out I live close enough to Mexico to pick up the fight for free by plugging in an antenna and tuning into one of the Mexican channels.

From wikipedia entry on dalvik[^]
An alternative runtime environment called <big>Android Runtime (ART)</big> was included in Android 4.4 "KitKat" as a technology preview.[3][4]
ART replaces Dalvik entirely in Android 5.0 "Lollipop".[5]
Does this new VM explain all (a lot) of the sluggishness issues I saw when my Nexus 7 was upgraded? Does it explain a lot of the issues with Lollipop? I wonder.
Very interesting.

My apps run a tad faster since upgrading to v5, but I have noticed the virtual keyboard can be shy at times (i.e., it does not always want to appear when requested).

Whilst testing a library (generic) I am developing that creates a certain kind of graph (tree) full of whatever-types of classes, I created a simple Class for testing named ...  ... 'TestClass. To my surprise, this is an example of what a "node" comes out as in the serialized output (via DataContract) as:
<NodeOfTestClasse_SyLysIx><ID>112</ID><Level>2</Level><Nodes i:nil="true"/><Path>Root,0,0,1</Path><Value><ID>-919</ID><Name>-919</Name></Value></NodeOfTestClasse_SyLysIx> My Win 8.1 has no other language than English "mounted."
I am not aware of any more than the usual demonic activities swirling around me on any other full-moon night, but the garlic in the windows does probably need changing.
If not just another supernatural bollox violating rationality's firewall, could this be a French infection ? Revenge by ISIS for visiting that Charlie Hebdo page on Spectator.uk ? I will try singing the Boku-Maru Calypso while testing to see if that changes the output which could indicate if this phenomenon could be an omen of a pool-pah, or a paradoxical sign of an imminent vin-dit, an emanation of a nearby harbinger of the manifestation of Pooper Pig who will usher in the eschaton's final count-down to Vishnu's reformatting-of-the-universe-without-backup via incarnation as Kalki.
