I know I’ve been a naughty girl this year, but I’ve honestly tried to be nice and good. If you don’t mind too much, could you skip on the coal and bring me: a better audiobook player for Linux than … Continue reading →

Zen of Knitting

Posted on 2008-12-23 (Tuesday) by myrtti

I’ve been feeling more and more stressed out lately. I have had problems in concentration, odd feelings of anxiety and lots of sleep deprivation. I’ve wanted something to take my mind off the most stressful parts of my life, and … Continue reading →

If I really knew how to code…

Posted on 2008-08-22 (Friday) by myrtti

I’d fix gnabblet.sis (an application used on Symbian60 phones to patch their lack of support for FBUS) to work on Symbian60v3 I’d add GNU/Gettext support to gwibber and fix the Facebook bug I’d code a decent IRC client for Symbian60v3 … Continue reading →

LRL 2008 UK musings

Posted on 2008-07-23 (Wednesday) by myrtti

As said on the previous post, I attended LUGradio Live last weekend. I’m still very, very, VERY tired, flying isn’t exactly an enjoyable experience ever, and this time the return flights were delayed because of bad weather conditions in Amsterdam. … Continue reading →

Joulu on todellakin tulossa

Posted on 2007-10-25 (Thursday) by myrtti

Kuvan latasi: myrtti Vanhat vihreä-valkoiset lapaset joita käytin yläasteella ovat parsitut pilalle. Kirjoneulemalli täytyi kuitenkin ottaa talteen jotenkin – mikä sen parempi tapa kuin neuloa uudet lapaset. Lankana Tampereen Taito-kaupasta ostettu 100% villalanka ja kuviot seiskaveikkaa. Joululahjaksi menevät nämäkin.

I should really get a grip of myself. I haven’t exercized nor been eating properly for a month now. I’ve been a bit depressed (now playing: Stella – Piste.) for two months now and this is getting a bit tiresome. … Continue reading →

Tampereen Taito-Shop

Posted on 2004-10-19 (Tuesday) by myrtti

Edellistä silmukkaa on kommentoitu reippaasti, kiitos siitä. Paljastui että Taito-Shopissa on kaksi kerrosta, ja tavoittelemani neuletarvikkeet olisivat alakerrassa, jonne haukankatseeni ei eilisellä ikkunaostoskerralla yltänyt. Kiitos tiedosta!

Logiikka pelaa, osa 1

Posted on 2004-10-19 (Tuesday) by myrtti

Ajattelin aamusella tuossa hieman unenpöpperössä, että kun kerran vanhat kuvat eivät näy, niin otan uusia ja laitan ne blogiin. Otin kuvia ensimmäisistä kutomistani sukista (jalassa), ompelemastani pehmohiirestä, askartelemistani silkkipaperiruusuista, kunnostamastani seinäpeilistä ja pilalle menneistä CD-R-aihioista tekemästäni seinäkoristeesta.
