PHP/MySQL Update
Well, I failed. I said in a previous blog post that I was gonna start learning PHP/MySQL again, but I haven't even touched the book
I think I'm just going to wait, and see where MyBB and Websites takes me. You never know, I might learn everything from just playing around with MyBB
Birthday
Well, the time has come and gone once again. My Birthday. 9th of February. This year, I have got some awesome presents! (Only 2, but they are awesome!
) My Dad got me a 23" LCD Monitor for my computer, and my Mum got me an XBox 360 Elite. Also got some cash, and a Sanity gift voucher, which is awesome, as I need some music
Warez Site
I recently traded the domain fpshacker.com for rapid-warez.com, as I didn't want the fpshacker.com domain, and wanted to start a warez site. I wouldn't be hosting actual files, but more like linking to good torrents. Well, anyway, after talking to a few people, I started having second thoughts. I originally thought just linking to torrents was allowed, but turns out it's illegal. I know, what's up with that?! Also, thinking about the demise of "The Pirate Bay" owners also made me think again. My host has said I can run this site, but yeah... Now, apparently, if I setup the correct legal information, I would be able to get away with it, but I'm not sure. So, I'm trying to sell the domain now, so we'll see what happens.
New School Network
Back to school 2010, new classes, more work, and a new school network. Over our 6 week break, our IT technicians have re-done our school network. Now, instead of the custom script we used for the intranet, we are now using Sharepoint for the intranet, and instead of Horde for the school emails, we are using Outlook Web App. Now, before 2010, all computers were locked down like Fort Knox. All computers had access to the local disk disallowed, access to things such as command prompt were blocked, and software restrictions were in place, so we couldn't run any EXE's. (Although, we IT whiz kids got around that with a technique I will be willing to share with anyone that asks me
) So now, we can install anything we want. I think the whole reason they didn't put software restrictions back on, is because they were getting bored, and now they will have more chance at banning people from the network
Oh, also, we now have Windows Classic taskbar, and start menu, which looks horrible, especially with our schools desktop background.
That's all for now
Unlimited Internet + No Blocks at school!
About a month or 2 ago, I decided to try connect to my laptop at home with RDP (Remote Desktop Connection) from school. I wasn't sure how it would turn out, but when I got to school, it worked! I was so excited
No website blocks! But then, I also found out that RDP wasn't counted as internet usage, so I could use it as much as I wanted without loosing any internet usage. I now do it all the time at school
Learning PHP/MySQL goal
A while ago, I bought a PHP/MySQL book and started to read it, but soon after I started, I couldn't be bothered to read anymore, and didn't learn anything. Now, I really want to learn PHP/MySQL so I am going to try again, this time, using the book, and just trying to code things using online tutorials.
Wish me luck!
Started a blog.
I have been thinking about starting a blog for a while, but never actually went through with it, but now, I have! I am hoping to spend a bit of time on this blog every once in a while, to make new posts.
