About black holes and brain dead reporters
Warning: cynic content to follow.
Another big step for science and for the world. Italy’s second most widespread
daily paper has announced a new discovery that will change our lives. Not only parallel universes exist where a newspaper selling more that 600.000 copies a day and with almost 3mln readers would employ people who know what they are talking about, but they have also discovered the existence of parallel web pages and gigantic black holes.
You gotta be kidding me!

More comments: lots. but I better don’t even tell you how much time I’ve just spent trying to paste the above code snippet in the WP editor as text.
Sorry, I’m cynic. But I don’t write such stupid software that is used by 43.8% of the bloggers on the net. And I’m too lazy to look for another blogging software and move to the remaining 56.2% ![]()
Dear Mr. Spitzer…

Americans are crazy. Eliot Spitzer just resigned amid a scandal over a $1,000-an-hour prostitute.
I would suggest Mr. Spitzer to take the next plane to Rome - he is perfectly in time for the incoming elections here in Italy.
And don’t worry, we don’t care if you had a crazy night with a prostitute. And if you are willing to make a career in crime, be sure that nobody will prevent you from having your own chair in Italian parliament.
Corruption, Mafia affiliation, false witness, gang affiliation, tax evasion, manufacture, possession and bearing of explosive devices, resisting to a police officer are among the most successful ways to get involved in Italian politics.
Welcome to the Dolce Vita!
PS : Don’t worry Eliot, you can take your SUV with you, we don’t give a f*** about the environment in Italy! I bet we are even better than you Yankees at this. Yeah, Rumsfeld!
Opaque Usability
OMG I just realized I have a weird and terrifying creature in my KUbuntu KDE 3.5.8. One thing I do appreciate in KDE (and, generally speaking, Linux) applications is consistent UI elements and few people trying to reinvent the wheel who usually end up creating painful and horrible usability enemies.
But this makes my neckskin crawl. Who the hell put a slider and a push button in my KDE menu?!?

Edit: I don’t need to add that the push button label will actually change to the opacity value as soon as you move the slider, ensuring that only a lobotomized squirrel could understand that pressing it will reset the opacity to 100%.
