The position is the exact same as the one I had in the Oslo-office, and the salary is pretty much the same, but with the added benefit of having a lower cost of living [...]]]> http://blog.xoduz.org/2010/08/29/canadian-summer/feed/ 0 http://blog.xoduz.org/2010/02/03/computer-troubles/ http://blog.xoduz.org/2010/02/03/computer-troubles/#comments Wed, 03 Feb 2010 16:10:19 +0000 Xoduz http://blog.xoduz.org/?p=1099 #leftcontainerBox { float:left; position: fixed; top: 60%; left: 70px; } #leftcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; clear:both; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; padding-bottom:2px; } #bottomcontainerBox { height: 30px; width:50%; padding-top:1px; } #bottomcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; height: 30px; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; } So, yeah – I spent maybe 7 hours yesterday trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate (retail version). This, after spending the last two days before that trying to debug and hopefully fix my previous installation of Windows 7 (trial version of release candidate), to no avail. It happened late on Sunday just as I was [...]]]> http://blog.xoduz.org/2010/02/03/computer-troubles/feed/ 0 http://blog.xoduz.org/2009/09/29/not-a-good-day-at-all/ http://blog.xoduz.org/2009/09/29/not-a-good-day-at-all/#comments Tue, 29 Sep 2009 14:58:30 +0000 Xoduz http://blog.xoduz.org/?p=779 #leftcontainerBox { float:left; position: fixed; top: 60%; left: 70px; } #leftcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; clear:both; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; padding-bottom:2px; } #bottomcontainerBox { height: 30px; width:50%; padding-top:1px; } #bottomcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; height: 30px; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; } As days go, this one could definitely have been better. As reported here (the details of which have probably been spread all over by now), about 20% of Funcom’s work-force are being laid off or put on forced leave, and most of those being affected are situated in the Oslo-office, where I happen to work.

Hopefully it won’t spill out into the actual blog, but with my luck where updates and upgrades are concerned, something bad is almost certain to happen.

Lots have changed since my previous blogging-period, which lasted from March 2003 until March 2007. For one thing, I moved [...]]]> http://blog.xoduz.org/2009/02/17/huzzah-im-blogging-again/feed/ 1
