No surprise

Guess what? The weather in Sweden really stinks. I hate it.

I don't understand what made me write the last post. Who could possibly enjoy the weather here?! I must have been drunk. Or out of my mind somehow. Maybe it was the shock of actually not freezing for some days. Anyway, I'm better now, thank you. I'm back to my old self.

So, when riding my bike down to the tram station I felt my ears almost fall off. Or I would have, if I had had any kind of sensation left in them. But no, they were numb. The cold air frooze them immediately, when I took the first step out through the door.

Enough about the weather? Ok, I'll stop whining for now. But I really need this valve to let out some of the steam, or else there would be someone exploding over here.

Oh, I installed Windows XP (SP2) yesterday. But what the fsck is this?! The stupid software overwrote my mbr with it's own boot loader. OK, I knew that used to happen in my old days with Windows, but hey. It's 2005 now, you might think the fine engineers over at Microsoft would have been able to understand there is something called "dual booting". Microsoft Windows is not the OS. It just happens to be something you have to start up when you want to enjoy a few hours game play. And that's just until the Linux user group has become big enough for the game producers to start releasing their products directly for us. Oh, wait. That's already happening.

Anyway. I fired up the linux system again via a live-cd and re-installed grub after adding a menu item for XP. Rebooting, and yep it worked. After a 3 sec waiting, Linux started up as default OS again. Everything were OK again. Or were it?

Apparently, the stupid motherfsckers at stupid motherfscking Microsoft once got an idea. "Hey, what if we should overwrite the mbr every fscking time our fscking OS is starting? That would be awesome." Yea. Really. You know what would be awesome? If I had the motherfscker who's responsible for that decision, right here, right now. I might even be happy for a while.
