Victory, or almost

So today the European Parlament voted on software patents. Both sides voted no. So that was good. Of course I would much rather have seen a clear stand on the stupidity of software patents. But atleast we are not stuck with something that both sides thinks is bad. On a much more local level today was a good day. I got a fair ammount of wokring done. My program can now do some basic testing of a machine, and show the user the result. And if something went wrong, it tells exactly what went wrong. I also managed to unpack one box completly and I started making room in the wardrobe for Jessica's clothing. Actually that is an excuse, I really should have cleaned out that wardrobe ages and ages ago. Now I was forced so that was good. As the day came to an end we watched eXistenZ which I think is a really good movie. Pretty much the same basic story as the Matrix but as someone on imdb put it "If the Matrix is an `oooh, aaah' sort of film, then this is more an `oooh, eeugh' movie - but don't allow the glare of the Matrix to dull your senses to the darker appeal of eXistenZ." Which is very true. If you have not seend it make sure you do! (only 69kr on discshop.se wich is a real bargain!)
