Disable Facebook Chat FOREVER! [ Chrome ]

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 24 Sep 2010 04:09:00 +0000

Well it happened to me that sometimes the Facebook chat would enable itself out of nowhere in Google Chrome and it was very bothersome [ I think it's something around this line in the FB script: Event.listen(DOM.find(this.buddyListPanel,'#buddy_list_panel_settings_control a'),'click',c);},_clickVisibilityToggle:function(){chatOptions.toggleVisibility();this.closeOpenFlyout();} ], so I made the above script to disable it once and for all. You'd first need to disable it manually, close that window [ without logging out ], install the above script and that's it, you should NEVER see your chat enable itself magically.

If you're half as paranoid as I am [ HAH! ] you might want to take a look at the script and see for yourself that it's not storing anything from your account, all it does is check if you are on facebook, have the chat and if you have it KEEP IT DISABLED [ like you did manually ]:

Code:

// ==UserScript==
// @match http://*.facebook.com/*
// @match http://www.facebook.com/*
// ==/UserScript==
if(chatOptions){
chatOptions.setVisibility(false);
}else{
alert("No chatOptions!");
}

that's all it does so... well I hope somebody might find it useful, I know I did! :P here's the link again in case you missed it:

install

You'll need to have Chrome 4 at least.

[ (Somewhat) Scientific Proof of God's Existence ]

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 22:23:00 +0000

Skip the whole post, just give me the proof!

Well I was searching today for the difference between a line integral and a path integral, apparently there is none, Wikipedia uses the terms indiscriminately so my search was a bit dull I think... or not :).

It happens that in my search I found a blog called "Quit Playing Games With My Physics", I got to it through the February archive where the owner talks about line integrals and path integrals (seemingly he does as if they're two different things even when I couldn't find the difference during my "research"), but then I decided I would take a look at the other stuff around, at least the main page to see if something caught my attention. Fortunately something did, the blog owner had as his most recent post there a short writing about a Google bomb he or somebody intends to create for the word Expelled, without even reading about his reasons I decided to start this post to contribute to the bomb.

Then as I started searching what it was all about I found that it's about a movie/documentary [ "documentary" according to some ] called "Expelled : No Intelligence Allowed" [ Wikipedia Article ] which claims that educators and scientists in the United States are being persecuted for their belief that there might be evidence of intelligent design in nature. In other words it/they claims/claim that there is no such thing as evolution but that everything in nature was previously designed by an intelligent entity who knew what was better and how it could work perfectly, God for example.

What the Google bomb intends is that when people search for "Expelled" in Google there will appear as a first result a site that "(shows you) why this movie is not a documentary at all, but anti-science propaganda aimed at creating the appearance of controversy where there is none". The first thing that came to my mind to say about that site is: where have you been all this time?. I mean everybody does that, everyone manipulates "truths" at their own benefit, from the US Government to your mothers and of course ourselves, at every level in every way you can think of: it is and has been happening for years now, so why only complain about this simple movie? why not complain about more important things all the governments have made up for us to swallow? why not spend your time searching for solutions to problems that really affect the way we live right now instead of complaining about something that in the end won't solve the ecological crisis humanity and the planet are facing in this moment? In the end it is just a matter of existentialism and a matter of a "ha-ha I was right and you were wrong" thing to find where we come from and why we are here so why spend so much time thinking on that?. The same goes to the movie/documentary of course. Cause in the end I am convinced that God presents Himself in different ways to everyone depending on how He thinks you'll best accept Him, even if one of these ways is the very absence of Him itself, like for all atheists out there [ hi there spikey! *waves + smiles* :P ].

Nevertheless this small topic made my schizotypal personality connect some dots and took me to post something I thought of a couple of days ago, well probably I had listened to this theory before but I don't know why I hadn't said anything about it, probably because I wasn't very sure if it was applicable or probably I made it up myself, but the thing is that an idea came to my mind of how to "scientifically" demonstrate the existence of the God I have so much faith in, of course this is more of a "talked" proof than something with equations and stuff, it probably can be done like that but I don't have the required knowledge to do it that way, so here it is:

_________________________________________________________________________________
PROOF

Well first of all I want you to think of the most perfect thing in nature, it could be anything you can think of, a spider's web, clouds, electricity, the human body, number pi, fractals, anything that is intrinsically perfect by nature. Now let's get into some science, in physics there is something called entropy, which in plain English can be thought of as the level of disorder in a given place, according to a law of thermodynamics [ the second one to be precise ] the entropy in that given place can only grow as time passes, which means for example that glasses can't magically assemble themselves once they have been broken but rather than breaking them is the "natural flow" in our universe, in other words: disorder constantly increases. Now think of a "given place" big enough or small enough that contains our planet and therefore the perfect natural thing you thought of. Given the second law of thermodynamics that I just mentioned there are only two possible ways for this perfect thing to exist: 1. It's there by chance, luck, accident or randomness. and 2. There is some sort of negative entropy that made it perfect instead of letting it be disorder.

Now I'd really like you to consider for number 2 that if well it's true that there is no proof yet that something as a source of negative entropy exists, it just has to. Think about it for a moment, everything in this life has its counterpart, and I mean everything: light/darkness, sound/silence, happiness/sadness, matter/antimatter. We just haven't discovered negative entropy yet and probably are far from doing so, but try to think the way I do for a second, try to think that there is some sort of intelligent entity we can't see, a source of negative entropy small enough or big enough to alter something as smallest as a cell, a molecule, an atom, a quark in the course of time just in the slightest way to create the minimum of negative entropy needed for a unicellular organism thousands of millions of years ago to evolve in the most perfect thing in the whole universe that you thought of. Well that intelligent being capable of changing the course of history just by moving an electron or two is what I call God.
_________________________________________________________________________________

Well that for me is enough proof of His existence, my brother told me after I told him that that there is still the possibility it was number 1 and we couldn't know if it was it because in all other "tries" or "experiments" nature made chance didn't make them work, he said for example that in the book Contact they talked about the perfection of pi and then he said that probably pi didn't exist in those other experiments/universes and so something didn't happen appropriately and they failed; so I told him that the single fact that there existed the number pi and that we could see it for ourselves was enough proof that things don't happen by chance. As Albert Einstein said: "God doesn't play dice with the universe".

And don't get me wrong, I'm not supporting intelligent design here, I believe in evolution, I believe in "Creationist Evolutionism" or "Evolutionist Creationism", I don't know if you're familiar with it, I probably made it up myself but it is so clear in the Genesis, man was created from mud or dust: after millions of years of evolution. It says in the Bible it was in 7 days well a day in God's life, in the life of an eternal being could mean 7 thousands of thousands of millions of years, of course God could not explain this in those times and he preferred to use simple and understandable words. I wish I could do that to explain his existence but as I've mentioned before in a post: "God is greater than that which all the religions say about Him."

Well I hope I didn't upset you with this, it was not my intention, but rather bring yet some more points of view to this subject, thanks for reading me and have a good day.

Oh, by the way, I'm still gonna post the Google bomb just for the fun of it :P :

[ Wortschatz ][ German Vocabulary Software ]

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 18:23:00 +0000

Description.
Well this a small project I made for my brother, he is learning German and he said he was feeling lazy to make study cards to learn the genres/articles, feminines and plurals of words so he asked me to program this simple application. What it does is that it randomly takes a word from a CSV file [ wortschatz_worts_db.csv ] and presents you either its plural or the word itself, then you must fill in the rest of the info and then the program tells you if you were right or wrong about it [ presenting the right answer in this later case ], then it selects another word and so on until you get tired or bored.

The words can be categorized thanks to another CSV file [ wortschatz_kategories_db.csv, this one and the previous file can be manipulated (add, delete and modify entries) with Excel (or its open source equivalent) as long as it doesn't change the format when you save it, be very careful with this ], each one of the lines in that file defines a category, this category should have a code [ a sequence preferably ] to identify it and you should include this code to make a word be included in a category. The software lets you chose at every moment if you want to work with a certain category or with all of them.

For example, let's take a look at one of the entries in the words file:
78,9,der,Vortrag,,Vorträge

The first number represents the word identifier, just a sequence or correlative [ that could be generated with Excel/Calc ], the second one is the category code, the third value is the word's article, the next one is the word itself, then there is the word's feminine [ in this case inexistent ] and finally the word's plural. It is important to notice that the program allows words to not have feminine but doesn't allow them to not have plural, if there is any error in any of the lines of the file the program will present the "Irrtum" [ Error ] word but after you select the next word will continue to work normally [ if the next word doesn't have an error as well ].

The entry in the categories file associated to the code 9 is the following:
9,Kultur

In which the first number represents an identifier and the next value is the name of the category itself.

Screenshots.
I'll provide now some screenshots of this simple application running on Windows XP:

Finally I will only make it clear that this is open source software distributed under a GPL license and thus you can modify the source and change the application at your taste [ if you know a bit of Java ], but the result of modifying the source files cannot be sold commercially [ read the included license, please ], also the license clearly explains that there is no warranty for this free software and that all modified versions of it must be marked as changed.

System Requirements.
Not many of them and not so high ones either: 64MB RAM, 700MHz processor, Java 1.6.
As I've said before the software is made in Java so you will need to have the latest version of the Java Virtual Machine installed in your computer before running it, you can get it from the Java site. If you use the Windows version it will give you the option to automatically download and install the required Java for you.

Download Links.
Source Code.
Platform Independent Version. [ runs in any Operating System (Linux, Mac OS X, etc.) , just unzip it and run the JAR file ]
Windows Installer. [ if you're not sure what to get you're probably searching for this one ]

Additional Resources.
The words and categories files included in the above distributions have just a couple of suggested entries as a form of example, my brother has personalized already his two files [ modifying them as I've mentioned earlier ] and he has let me publish them here. The categories file contains 12* categories and the words file contains 1021* categorized words, if you want you can download them and replace [ inside the installation directory ] the ones that are included in the above distributions with these new ones:
Categories. *
Words. *

* = updated on 2008/04/13

Oh I almost forgot, people who make open source software always say in the end: "if you find this software useful please consider donating to my paypal to buy me a beer or two"... but it happens I don't have a paypal and neither am too much of a beer fan so instead please consider donating to Save The Children, thank you.

[ Superbowl XLII ][ Eli Manning - David Tyree Play ]

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 02:14:00 +0000

Well I must say I am not a big fan of USA "Football" but I almost always watch the Superbowl just to see what I am missing and man yesterday it was great!!.

The day before the game I was rooting for the Patriots for no reason at all, then on Sunday I found out they hadn't lost in the season and that made me change my mind XD, I thought "oh well I have nothing to lose since I don't actually root for anyone" and so I started going with the Giants, man was it sweet.

HERE'S THE VIDEO of the play that saved the game for the Giants.

[ Happy holidays ]

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 24 Dec 2007 05:09:00 +0000

ENGLISH [ bajá un poco para la versión en Español ]
A friend sent me a link a few weeks ago that I hadn't had the chance to share with you and I think it is very important to do it in the eve of this very important holiday for Christians which is celebrating the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ because we sometimes just say "Merry Christmas" without even knowing if the person we are saying that to is a Christian or if Christmas has a meaning to him/her or not, and so we should learn to tolerate and respect the beliefs of everybody to the point where it's possible and say "happy holidays" in case you're not sure :P.

I will share an extract from the site I got the link to, post the link to an image and a smaller version of it and will also translate it to Spanish and make this post both in English and Spanish. For those of us who believe in Christ please let's remind ourselves what this celebration really is about and let's not get sad and melancholic on this date, you don't like it when your someone around you is sad on your birthday so why would He? ^_^

here's the link: http://servicioskoinonia.org/posters/
here's the extract:

The famous metaphor of the elephant being touched by blind men who want to define it is normally attributed to Hinduism, but is vindicated also by Jainism and by Buddhism. The blind men try to define the elephant with their best will, but they can't make themselves an exact idea of it. And it is useless for them to argue, because they are all right in a way. What they must do is share, to complete each other. An ideal metaphor for the inter-religious dialogue.

Our illustrator -in this case Fernando Bernabé- has preferred to paint a female elephant, for a matter of gender perspective, and makes us observe that the official wise men have historically been men...

here's the image:

Happy holidays everyone !

ESPAÑOL [ scroll up a bit for the English version ]
Un amigo me envió un link hace un par de semanas que no había tenido la oportunidad de compartir con ustedes y creo que es muy importante hacerlo en la víspera de esta importante fiesta para los Cristianos que es celebrar el nacimiento de nuestro Señor Jesucristo porque a veces nosotros sólamente decimos "Feliz Navidad" sin si quiera saber si la persona a la que se lo decimos es Cristiano o si la Navidad tiene o no un signficado para él o ella, así que deberíamos aprender a tolerar y respetar las creencias de todos hasta el punto en el que sea posible y decir "felices fiestas" si no se está seguro :P.

Compartiré un extracto del sitio del que me mandaron el link, el link de una imagen y su versión más pequeña y también lo voy a traducir al Inglés para postear tanto en Español como en Inglés. Para aquellos de nosotros que creemos en Cristo por favor recordémonos a nosotros mismos el verdadero significado de esta celebración y no no spongamos tristes o melancólicos en esta fecha, a ustedes no les gusta cuando alguien a su alrededor está triste en su cumlpeaños así que por qué habría de gustarle a Él? ^_^

acá está el link: http://servicioskoinonia.org/posters/
acá está el extracto:

La famosa metáfora del elefante palpado por los ciegos que quieren definirlo es atribuida normalmente al Hinduismo, pero es reivindicada también por el Jainismo y por el Budismo. Los ciegos definen al elefante con su mejor buena voluntad, pero no pueden hacerse una idea cabal de él. Y es inútil que discutan, porque todos tienen su razón. Lo que deben hacer es compartir, para complementarse. Metáfora ideal para el diálogo inter-religioso.
Nuestro dibujante -en este caso Fernando Bernabé- ha preferido pintar una elefanta, por cuestión de perspectiva de género, y nos hace observar que los sabios oficiales han sido históricamente varones...

Everytime I have an important post to make I rather take my time to do it well [ contrary to this post ] and so I save it as a draft to continue working on it for some days but then as I edit it from my "posts listing" [ or whatever ] a couple of days after I saved it it will only show a blank page to edit, when I post it though the content is still there but can't be edited in any way -_-.

You would expect more from Google and also in the "Help Center" there's no way of reporting this "bug" as far as I could see -_-.

Well my girlfriend wrote this on her blog, I liked it and thought it would be a nice thing to share with ALL my readers XD. [ I'm keeping its original format ]:

The aspects of me as a Christian goth

It's been nearly 12 years since I've been a Christian and 14 months since I've been a goth (though I did have some traits also a long time before that, I didn't know anything about "gothicism" and what it was yet, so I can't tell that it was earlier.) And here is my view on how both these aspects closely relate...

A goth is, to a certain extent, an outcast of the society, partly for he choses so himself and partly for he's not accepted by it... though nowadays I can't say it's still quite valid as "gothic" has been becoming a popular trend. I hope it will pass soon so that media and pubertal kids who change their image according to magazins will leave gothic alone again. A Christian in these times is an outcast as well. Especially here in Europe (when I don't count Asian countries where Christianity never had a strong position) and especially here in Czech Republic. Why just here? There has been an opposition against the Catholic church for centuries, starting with the Hussite wars. But these tendentions began to expand in the later decades of the 19th century, when the Czech nation craved for independence from the Austrian - Hungarian monarchy. Then who was a real Czech patriot has to be against the Habsburger and that automatically meant against the Catholic church, which also was a support of the state. Then with time somehow this disliking for Catholicism expanded against also other Christian churches and Christianity in general. Possibly what helped affirm this were 40 years of the Communist regime that systematicallyfought against Christianity, but more relevant is that already decades before that began, the faith was weak in this nation (if it hadn't been weak before, it wouldn't be broken by the regime - see Poland, where it still stays.)

Both a goth and Christian seek for more than what this world can offer. They can see that material things, fame, popularity will not make them happy. We can see how everything is passing, we realize that even our own lifes last just for a while to pass away as well. Therefore we want to be in touch with our soul, search for what lies there and what it truly desires, so that we can live our life genuinely and authentically.

They both also know that it is necessary to accept the whole reality of the world and life, including pain, sorrow, sadness, anxiety and death. We must face the fact that this is no perfect world (though once it was and it will be again, but that is beyond human possibilities) and that painful things will come. It is up to us to embrace them and possibly later see that they had a meaningful place in our life and that they formed us as a human being.

Also both gothicism and Christianity bring freedom. Freedom to be our own beings, to accept ourselves the way we are with both positive and negative traits, to stop worrying about what others think of us, to gain inner independence from others' judgements. Also freedom to believe in our ideals and stay faithful to them even when we are alone and everyone else around thinks differently. We don't have to accept their "norms" if they clearly aren't good or if they aren't the good thing for us; we just need to be ourselves and not to be bothered by not fitting in.

Lacrimosa - Der Kelch Des Lebens

Versagt im Wort
Im Traum zerflossen
Den Kelch des Lebens nur beruhrt
In einem Sog
Die Kehle mit dem Gift gefullt
Den Korper und das Fleisch zersetzt
Die Seele leer getrunken
Am Stamm der Sehnsucht wund gewetzt
Erhitzt - verbrannt
Zu heiss - vorbei
Sehnsucht

Ausgesetzt und abgeschoben
Den Samen in den Sumpf gepflanzt
Nunmehr da ich fuhle
Bin ich Mensch und will ich auch sprechen
Am Fuss der Berge will ich knien
Will das Meer mit Worten segnen
Welcher Wind hat mich gerufen
Welcher Clown hat mich ausgelacht
So brauche ich den Namen nicht
Werde nicht gerufen
Noch werde ich Antwort jemals horen

Es ist der Traum der mich gefuhrt
Und folgen werde ich bis in die Glut

______________________________________________

Lacrimosa - The Goblet Of Life

Devoid of words
Dissolved in a dream
The goblet of life is only touched
In a wake
My throat filled with poison
My body and flesh disintegrated
My soul drunk empty
Wounded in the realms of yearning
Burned and scorched
Too hot - all past
Yearning

Abandoned and discarded
Seed painted in the mire
Now as I feel
I am a person and also wish to speak
I will knee at the foot of the mountain
Bless the sea with words
Which wind has called me
Which clown had derided me
I do not need the name
I will not call out
Neither will I ever hear the answer

The dream has led me
And I will follow it into the glowing fire...

It's 4:50am as I start typing this, I don't think it will take too long... basically all I need to say is that I've been feeling very lonely lately and I wish my girlfriend lived here in my country or vice-versa. But I'm feeling lonely not only because of that but I don't know...I feel like if there's no place I fit in, for some I'm just too quiet and calm, for others I'm just too crazy and senseless...some think I'm too Christian for them and some that I'm not Christian enough...so why fit in then? there's no point to it... better "fit out", but fitting out goes with feeling left out, oh wait I already feel like that so what the hell...

Today we'll hand in the graduation project's document, it's the last day possible... hopefully nothing will go wrong. I don't feel happy about it, cause I know it's gonna change a lot after the teachers check it... I also know there's a loooong way to go to finish this and it looks far away although it's so near in time... but I trust God will make it happen.

It's 4:56

[ Graduation Project Easter Egg ]

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 12 Aug 2007 05:58:00 +0000

Well so it's been set up :P!, I'm currently finishing my graduation project for my undergraduate degree in computer science at UCA and well today I put an easter egg in it. If you follow the right clues and do the right things you'll get enough information to watch a specific video on YouTube.

But as I said to one of my group mates and friend, Chris, I think I overdid it :P, it's just too hard... or isn't it? would I have done it if I had found out about it?... yeah I guess I would've after a couple of tries ;).

Oh by the way, no steganography in files is involved XD.

[ FlyakiteOSX ]

So taking a look at my Google Analytics [ which btw renewed interface ] stats I can see that most of people who come to this blog get here through the post about making your PC look like a Mac I made some weeks ago and then of course I thought it was my duty to warn you: this FlyakiteOSX software is not for PCs with less than 1GB RAM and maybe at least a 2GHz processor in my humble opinion, also you might want to have a good graphics accelerator. In my case, my brother's laptop in which I installed it doesn't even remotely resemble this specifications and of course it is slow as hell and with an ugly sound card problem when it shows the screen saver :S...

Ok so now I'll be able to sleep at night XD you have been warned!

[ Gmail full ! ]

Ever wonder what happens when you run out of storage on your gmail account? no? ok then stop reading... XD. Well last night I logged in to my gmail and it showed me this message:

So when I clicked on the "purchase additional storage" link it took me to this page with the different purchase plans:

And then my PC exploded !!!!! ... not -_-, so since I didn't want to buy storage I just deleted some stuff and voilá!... not a good strategy to sell storage when you could define a filter to send all incoming mail to another FREE gmail account :S but well...

[ "Un-coupled" People ]

Is it me or it is that two of the MANY groups society divides us in are: "The ones in a couple" and "The ones not in a couple"??. Lately I've been noticing this strange division because many of my friends' boyfriends think I'm into their girls @_@ and then it is like I can't do shit with those friends cause then the boyfriend's gonna think that I'm trying to get something from her or blah or bleh or bleah and he's gonna kill me... so I can only hang out with girls who don't have boyfriends :S, I can't go to the movies with my friends who have boyfriends, I can't be "too" nice with them, I can't invite them lunch, I can't just be friendly and give them small presents or what -__-. And it's weird because I DO have a girlfriend, only she's 6,000Km away from me BUT when the girlfriend I had was right next to me I never knew of my friends' boyfriends thinking I was into their girls :S, so it is like a psychological thing that if the guy your girlfriend is hanging out doesn't have a girlfriend in a radius of 100Km then he MUST be into your girl to hang out with her XD and of course he fits into the "Un-coupled" group :P...

Well, just wanted to let that go...-_-
