Tonight, in addition to resurrecting The Flog, I decided to finally get to work on the d8uv.org main page. The plan was to use the Planet Planet software to take all the feeds from my various current projects, and merge them all together. Problem is, I didn't want my front page to be river-of-news style, and Planet Planet is pure river. I've been doing ok at learning Python, so I wondered how easy it would be to roll my own aggregator.

About 20 hours later, I came up with this:


#!/usr/bin/python2.5

import feedparser

def nodize(feed):
    site = feedparser.parse(feed)
    print '<div class="feed">'
    try:
        print '<h2><a href="' + site.feed.link + '"><img src="' + \
            site.feed.logo + '" alt="' + site.feed.title + \
            '" /></a></h2>'
    except AttributeError:
        print '<h2><a href="' + site.feed.link + '">' + \
            site.feed.title + '</a></h2>'
    print '<p>' + site.feed.subtitle + '</p>'
    print '<ul>'
    for entry in site.entries:
        print '<li><a href="' + entry.link + '">' + entry.title + \
        '</a></li>'
    print '</div>'
    print

print """<html>
<body>

<h1>d8uv.org</h1>
"""

nodize('http://d8uv.org/flog/feed')
nodize('http://deight.wordpress.com/feed/')
nodize('http://d8uv.org/zap/feed')

print """</body>
</html>"""

Now all there is left in my todo is making an about page, creating a previous project page, creating a new weblog of dumb, writing a flog post about creating a new weblog of dumb, re-engineering the Second Second feed, and creating logos for all the feeds. Oh yeah and adding CSS magics to the front page now.

If anyone has some spare time laying around please post it over here. tia.

xkcd comic

Yesterday, I bought a wacom tablet. Problem is, now that I have one I forgot that I neither have decent ideas, nor any shred of talent.

Which isn't gonna stop me from making a whole bunch of comics. Oh no.

sbp recently alerted me showing a person in some stupid soccer forum mentioning the Flog, and using a word I use a lot. This prompted me to go a google search looking for other uses of the Flog. Turns out those blogosphere nerds now coined "Flog" as an official vocabulary word for their "I IS A JOURNALIST" circlejerk. The Flog is no longer a word meaning "A weblog of complete and total Awesome". They changed it to mean Fake Blog.

I AM NOT A FAKE WEBLOG. YOU JERKS ARE FAKE. ALSO ALL YOUR MOMS ARE UGLY AND STUPID. >:(

08:53 <sbp> phenny: tell d8uv to do a "My Hobby" cartoon
08:53 <sbp> phenny: tell d8uv also a keyboard that has a "DAMN RIGHT" key instead of a return key


Don't ever get a tablet. It'll turn your brain into an easily suggestible horrible comic factory.

So my alarm clock got set one hour behind. I noticed this when I got up at 5AM, browsed the internet until 4:23, then hey what the hell just happened here. How I managed to do it is puzzling, because there's two options:

  1. My clock, which doesn't have any date functions, decided that it's November, and set itself accordingly.
  2. I changed it one hour back, by pressing the "set clock" button then pressing the hour button 23 times.

Right now, I think the most plausible answer is "goblins".

<fines> So there's nothing quite like a wolf spider charging your feet while you take a piss. I don't think I've ever jumped that high in my whole life until this day.
<fines> No, really, can I go back to Alaska yet. All these fucking spiders are making my paranoid.
<d8uv> Wolf spiders ^_^
<fines> Yes, wolf SPIDERS.
<d8uv> http://a.photos.cx/wolfspider-a47.jpg ?
<fines> That one is a bit larger then the one that stared me down ontop of the toilet. Also, he did not have a smileyface like that.
