luckily for me, I live really far away from the area of Japan that was recently devastated by the tsunami. It's pretty much business as usual over here, with the exception that people are obviously concerned with what is happening the other side of the country.
Thanks to those who asked btw :)

We have a customer in Tokyo area, that flight back to Japan last week end. He told us that his company employees have been required to stay at home as the office building has no more power supply (it is a big and famous company in Japan)
Also, he told us that despite people seems to be very calm (that's what they show), they are even more frightened about the nuclear power supply issues than the earthquake/tsunami replicas...
Anyway, it is good to hear from you, and I hope the situation to become better in the future... for all Japanese people ;)

If you have almost any kind of electronic device, you can get Kindle for that instead of buying a new device entirely. I have Kindle on my phone and it works pretty well.
Hm

Huh, since when does my IP have a 46 in front of it? Maybe I looked at too many American secrets online and am now routed through a special proxy.

!= kindle. The eink screen and month long battery life is what makes the kindle worth buying. I got one for xmas and love it.

on closer inspection, I guess I have to run a few checks on my GameOS.
Well Yeah

That's why I'd pay money for one. I used to read a lot but books out here have a higher tax and difficult to get hold of. A kindle would solve that.

Yeah, looks like they're running out of addresses or something. Was just puzzled by the change.

Books have a higher tax? That's one way to discourage learning. :p
Yep

All the top level ipv4 address blocks are now allocated. (the first number of your ip address) Doesn't mean that we'll literally run out tomorrow, but, as a 32-bit address space, there aren't enough to go around to give every human an ipv4 address. NAT will keep us going for a while yet I suppose... Of course some blocks are allocated for special purposes, like 127 and 169.

Please scrutinise. I need as much demoralising honest negative feedback as possible.

that flash intro needs to go
you can't copy the text in the image - THE FUCKING EMAIL ADDRESS
you need to put in a lot of work tuning your font settings because right now they look shitty
same for list margins/paddings
your lines are totally not lining up to anything -> busy appearance
duplicated menu is so 1998
