The League system hates me

The people in #troll-base are probably getting bored of my constant complains about bronze by now. “If you can’t carry yourself out, then you don’t deserve to get out,” is my personal philosophy regarding the bottommost of tiers (and probably all the others as well). That’s a pure question of skill, however.

I called the driving licence center.

“Hello, I’d like to get a Japanese licence based on my Hungarian one. I have all the paperwork and translations. What are the fees?”
“2200 yen for the exam, and 1500 (or something along those lines) for car use.” (I don’t have a car, by the way.)
“I’ve been told that I don’t have to take an exam. Hungary is in the Geneva convention.”
“What country are you from?”
“Hungary.” (Duh I just said it like 2 times already.)
“Right, then you don’t have to take the exam.”
“So how much will it cost?”
“2200 yen for the exam, 1500 for car use and further 2200 if you passed the exam.” (You what mate?)

I just got my USB wifi adapter and new mouse today, and of course my first thing was to set up network sharing. It went in a flash on Windows. I installed the wifi adapter’s drivers, and it sorted out the rest. Internet sharing was pretty much automatic.

I’ve used Chromium on my linux desktop for years now without any problems. The built-in JavaScript console and other dev features make it very convenient when i suddenly decide i wanna hack some sites, and also it syncs all my bookmarks and passwords with other Chrome/Chromium browsers running on my Windows boot or by now, on my laptop.

I noted earlier how uploading a picture to twitter on Windows 8 from Chromium on my laptop freezes the whole machine for minutes, but i thought that was just because i had a 720p video, multiple browser tabs and an irc client running too (now guess what was i doing).

So in preparation for the longer periods i’ll be spending away from home during the summer (and also a “long-time investment”), i bought an ASUS X201E notebook. It’s not a powerhorse, but it’s cheap and good enough for what i need it for (translating and checking email). It arrived the other day, and i had some fun setting it up.

Eső

Én nem bánom, hogy esik az eső. Sőt, kifejezetten élvezem, hogy napok óta folyamatosan esik kisebb-nagyobb intenzitással. A farmeromat térdig feltekertem, mert az esernyő lábszinten már nem ér semmit, és mezítlábasan fapapuccsal tolom. Néha viszont már kevésbé tudom értékelni az égi áldást.

The past few weeks i’ve had a few chances to look at code. Snippets showing the newest cutting edge features of PHP. A fun online JavaScript console one of my twitter friends made. A multifunctional IRC bot written in Python. Some fun pieces of Ruby code. My own archives from the Java class I took last semester.

今日は留学生向の合同説明会に行ってきた。けっこうよかった。数社の話聞いたら「ここエントリーしようか」と思った、説明会の目的通りだろう。 だが一社はちょっと訳わからない感じだった。

これは、ちょっとわからない。暇な今FBうろついてたら変なことに気づいた。 去年のインターンや今年の就活で出会った人たちの中で、もっとも優秀と思ってたやつらはびっくりするほど内定出てない。俺自身はともかく、本当に3月に既に内定もらってるタイプのやつも未だに（俺同様）熱狂的就職中。

Jelerősség

Most tűnt fel, hogy a telefonom már a szobámban is tökéletes jelerősséget jelez. Ez csak azért érdemel említést, mert eddig nemhogy tökéletes nem volt, de néha csak bizonyos zugokban volt egyáltalán jel (mit érdemel az a bűnös, aki földszinti lakásba költözik stb). Nem tudom, hogy a szolgáltatóm telepített-e a közelbe egy új állomást vagy csak a tegnapelőtti Android frissítés eredménye, akárhogyis, én csak örülök hogy végre nem kell a fölöttem lakó wifijét lopnom ha Skyrim közben rá akarok keresni valamire a neten.
