heart GMail

I just love GMail and the new feature: THEMES!!!

Especially the command line one

This theme reminds me of another one created by me for one of the old versions of GTalk. It’s so freakin’ nice. And brutal. Totally brutal. Metal

Dilema

Christ Saddler — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 22:24:11 +0000

Daca eu sunt nascut la ora 22:30 in Romania si acum sunt mutat in Olanda, si avand in vedere diferenta de fus orar de o ora, eu cand imi serbez ora nasterii? La 21:30 sau la 22:30? Sau sa fac o medie?

E grele astea…

Ma duc sa beau o bere prin vreun club cu lumea, am noroc ca aici nu e obiceiul de a da de baut de ziua ta, dau ceilalti

Me, myself and I

A video made a few days ago by me. All the 3 characters are played by me. There is no idea in this movie, i just wanted to see if i can recreate a movie effect. I recorded 3 movies with my camera on a tripod and then overlayed them using Adobe Premiere and After Effects. The music was also done by me.

Telfort sucks ass!

Here, in Netherlands, the telecom services have a different meaning. Or perception. Mostly in the way they treat the clients. I mean, i like the fact that they take my money automatically from my account, once in a month, but here every nice thing stops. I don’t know when this transfer happens. The fuckers from the shop couldn’t tell me the date either. They said: “It just takes your money, the system, and that’s it”. What system, douche-bag? And i can’t find, in anyway, how many free minutes do i still have. There is no service where you can call or SMS to find the right answer. You just speak and that’s it. And then they take your money. Oh, i forgot, i do receive a bill. And i have only one row on that stupid paper: something in dutch which ends with “XX euros”. Probably the amount of money they will retain from my account.

But let’s stick to what i have to say, for this month, i didn’t had any money on this account so i didn’t payed the bill. Not my fault, in my humble opinion, i didn’t knew the date. Now i know, it’s 18th. After a couple of days, suddenly, my phone stopped working. The message, when i was trying to make a call, said something about the fact that i am not allowed to use the service. I went to the shop, had a talk with those guys and found the problem! If you don’t pay in 3 working days, you’re banned until they have the money in their account. Niiiiice! Being such a nice guy, i decided to pay there, in the shop. Bad idea! It’s not possible to pay in shops! Oh, well, i will choose the money transfer method. Now, after 5 days, i still can’t use my phone. Still no service. The guy from the shop said that i should call some number to confirm the payment. Well, idiot, how in the name of hell should i make the call if i am banned? Can i use smoke signals maybe? Should i send a postcard? Should i stick the bill into your ass? Can you feel the payment now? He replied that i should wait, the service will become available eventually. Myeah… and your mom too.

I’m pissed off! I’ll switch to Vodafone maybe. Soon.

Imagine something

Imagine that i wrote something in here (different from this useless text) and try to comment on it. Let’s see how creative can you go.

Laughing out loud

Christ Saddler — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 00:07:04 +0000

I would like to write this post in english but i cannot express all my laughs in english. Romanian is such a good language to do it. Therefore, i’m sorry for those who just can’t understand what i will say, but i do think that you can use google to translate this post in any language. So, here we go:

Bai tata ‘ai! Am gasit poze cu mine de cand eram mic. Deci ce fatza aveam… si ce freza, si ce sprancene, si ce par verde Am ras pana mi-au dat lacrimile si mi-au udat podeaua ce a devenit atat de alunecoasa incat nu am mai putut sta drept si m-am cracanat iar de ras pana am ajuns cu picioarele in colturi opuse ale camerei de nu ma mai puteam aduna si as zice ca mai aveam un pic si imi intra si podeaua in fund de atata cracanat, dar suna cam ciudat si renunt la idee. Mai bine luati si priviti aici:

eu la Vatra Dornei in excursie prin clasa a 11a parca. Pe vremea aia eram model de cumintenie si tocilarism in clasa. Cand m-a vazut diriga a fost atat de uimita ca nu a putut articula decat “Cristi?” la care eu, cu un zambet foarte tamp pe fatza “Da, eu sunt, doamna diriginta!”

asta care urmeaza, desi e facuta inainte de cea de sus, se poate observa ca aveam aceleasi haine si ce mijeala de mustacioara… ce fatza de cocalar de pe hi5… oh Doamneee!!! There is no Doamneeee!!!

iar asta mi se pare cea mai tare. Uitati ce privire am. Ce instantaneu. Ce Smena au folosit ai mei pentru o asa capodopera. Si ratele alea…

si asta… fara par pe fatza… cu par pe cap… aveam par!!!! si burtosi in spate

si cum arat eu acum

Comunismul asta, dragul de el

Vedeti ca am copywrite pe poze asa ca sa nu le vad prin alte parti fara acordul meu (adica NU din start) :>

PS: sa vedeti ce funny e google cand traduce din romana in engleza

Muncind printre relicve

Christ Saddler — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 11:13:15 +0000

In ultima vreme ma trezesc din ce in ce mai greu dimineata. Si nici vremea nu tine cu mine. Fac eu ochi azi pe la 8, arunc o privire spre bucatica de geam ramasa neacoperita si vad ca straluceste soarele. Ma bucur nitzel, ma ridic, trag draperia si surpriza! Disparusera casele vecinilor de peste drum. Iar soarele cu pricina, de stralucea, era de fapt o ceatza deasa de iti strici cutitul in ea, ce stralucea din cauza continutului prea mare de hidrogen (nu stiu daca e din cauza hidrogenului, dar am scris si eu asa la misto, sa dea bine in fatza altora). Imi fac curaj, arunc cu niste apa peste ochi, pun apa de o cafea, uit sa pun cafea in apa si ma imbrac. Cum simt nevoia sa beau ceva, dar care sa nu fie apa, torn fiertura peste cafeua macinata din cana, o frec un pic ca pe ness si o dau asa pe gat. Si ies din casa. Cred ca am iesit din casa, ca dupa ce am inchis usa, nu am mai vazut-o. Tot ceatza e de vina. Pun GPS-ul de pe tel in functiune si o iau spre gara ghidat de chestia asta electronica. E singura sansa sa ajung la munca (desi m-am tot gandit sa ma dau ranit si sa nu ma duc). Ajung eu in birou, verific cateva mail-uri si vad ca vine seful si ne spune ca are un anunt important de facut si sa ne strangem cateva secunde la biroul lui. Deja incep sa ma gandesc cu bucurie ca isi da demisia sau, daca moare, nu se-mpute? Nu se strica? De data asta nu am avut noroc, poate la urmatoarea extragere… anuntul era despre un coleg care a reusit sa faca un atac de cord. Are vreo 55 de ani. Deja ma gandesc, bah ce tare-i dracu, ce motiv super tare sa te dai ranit si sa nu vii 2 saptamani la munca. Cel putin.
Revin la birou si observ ca am aceleasi probleme: semnaturile la mail au disparut iar, quick launch bar e gol si fara acces la el, aplicatiile pentru administrarea bazelor de date nu merg. Asa ca sun iar persoanele menite sa imi rezolve doleantele. Aici alta bazaconie: project manager-ul care se ocupa de noile PC-uri, migrate la cine stie ce minunatie de setari guru-iene, printre care si al meu… a suferit si el un atac de cord. Era singur in departament. Eu cui raman?
Muncesc printre relicve.

My first DSLR pics

Christ Saddler — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 15:56:26 +0000

A ajuns aparatul foto! Si prin cate am trecut… am ajuns vineri acasa si vad hartie de la postas ca a trecut pe aici si ca am un pachet, plus ceva cu 18 pe hartie. Ma gandesc eu: o fi trecut pe la ora 6, hai sa il sun ca e abia e 7. Mi-a intrat mesageria. Mai stau eu un pic si zic: hai sa traduc totusi fraza asta cu google sa vad ce scrie exact. Ei bine, cuvintele alea se traduceau cam asa: ti-am lasat pachetul la vecinul de la numarul 18 (eu stau la 7). Deja ma gandeam… vecinul a plecat sa faca poze cu camera mea, a vandut-o si si-a luat masina, ii trimiteam deja mama de unde a iesit si tot asa. Imi iau foile’n dinti si plec la el. Sun. Si iese o tanti cu pachetul meu deja in mana, foarte zambitoare si mi l-a dat fara prea multe intrebari Pai daca eram in tara as fi fost intampinat cu fraza: “ce pachet? ce posta? ce camera foto? pleaca ma de aici!”.

Am facut si primele poze (de incepator):
