Ah, Android and its quirks, how I hate thee…

We (I and my wife) have been watching some Nordic Noir lately. We finished the Fjällbacka Morden series (here’s a link [imdb.com] to the first movie of that series) yesterday. We liked it quite a lot, though some of the plot twists were fairly predictable. Today we started watching Svartsjön. [imdb.com] After two episodes we are not entirely sure if we love it or not. Maybe it’s the horror/thriller things that make us feel a bit uneasy while we watch it.

WTF? Here's [youtube.com] a YouTube playlist of the album.

Speaking of great Finnish metal bands, I am currently listening the Under the Red Cloud [itunes.apple.com] album by Amorphis. [itunes.apple.com]

Listening to Baby Metal. I knew they were popular but had never actually listened to them.

Can I join you/them?

Oh god… That would be just awesome here where we use some funky characters.

Speaking of funky characters, the national people registry here in Finland got a major warning because they are storing names using ISO 8859-1 character encoding and that does not allow some characters used in the Same languages. That means certain Same names are not encoded correctly in the registry.

Standards (and implementations) that allow only ASCII characters. Yay. Not.

Ran for the first time since October1. It was a short run, only 2.3 km and 13 minutes, but I thought it would be easier to get back to the business with that than with a longer one. It felt, as one can expect, not that easy after such a long break. Let’s see will it get easier after a few runs.


  1. It has been really busy winter and spring.
