#spectrail is love
It’s wonderfull to see all the loving people out there sending flowers to Mr and Mrs Wallis because of his staggering work today in court.
Book sale
Around this time every year we have a big book sale here in Sweden. The major thing with this is the fact that the publishers prints loads of new copies of the books that sells the best and then sell them to a lower price in a big “sale”.
The thing now is that the physical book stores say that they sell less and less books in these sales and claims it’s the fact that the...
The #spectrial is a right now a great course in
how to file share. You can learn straight from the top of the swedish government how to use The Pirate Bay.
Ok, I continued
to use Spotify it really is very convenient. (But I still hate it.)
Here is a playlist of sweet stuff from swedish record label Pickadoll. It’s techno/house from the harder side of the world.
Pickadoll sweetsuffs!

IRC-connection to trial.tingsrätten.se established
Never thought I would chat to someone in court, but this truly is the future so, this can apparently happen to now.
Quite fun though, I guess it makes the days of the people needing to listen to Roswall in the flesh more bearable.

“- Jag har redan mer skulder i Sverige än jag någonsin kommer att kunna betala...”
– Svartholm Warg (om skadeståndskraven i TPB-rättegången)
It's just a little bit of history repeating.
When the self playing pianos came it killed live music.
When musicians started to make catalog music all music that the world would ever need was created.
When DJ’s started to play records all live bands died.
When the tape recorder was invented no new records was created everyone just taped old ones.
When the VHS was introduced people stopped to watch live TV.
When people started to...

Spotify cleans up and loses me.
Ok so Spotify stated that they was about to clean up albums and tunes and “enable” country restrictions. And HELL YEAH they did, OMG. I don’t have a single playlist that has not lost several tracks, and most of them have lost about half to two thirds of there tracks.
Sorry Spotify you probably lost me now, you should not have ppl start to use the service before these...
