It was getting tight to my Facebook notes and since this feature fell into disuse since removing the 420 or 480 character limit on status updates, I searched for some more prominent place to put my brand new FCE certificate into practice, since all of my friends speak Czech, therefore there's no point in English statuses nor notes. I revived the idea of having a webpage, but more like some long English opinion articles no one cares about. I could spam people asking stupid questions with links them, since these articles would be also stupid. Also a place was needed for my linguistic inventions, like "TUMAASZ, HUSE!" and "Speling niids tu bii riformd" was needed for more detailed specification and public reachability via simple Google search. As a SEO substituion I have my Dictionary, a whole compilation of Czech puns and possible loanwords, so if someone types a typo or googles for their new invented word, it'll send them probably there, since Čeština 2.0 is only a small pocket dictionary compared to Urban Dictionary. And becuause it's Google, then why not it's Blogger as the services are going to be interoperable and I didn't know a thing of CSS, which apparently obsoletes the M from HTML. And JavaScript obselotes the T from it, leaving us only with a Hyper Language instead of HyperText Markup Language. Finally, the bright blue Facebook theme burned my eyes in night so I needed a profile that could be viewed at these times and save my cellphone battery a little bit.


So far there have been these series:

Fragments of Facebook Philosophy 1 ~ 8 (9 in writing)
Getman's Adventures 0 ~ 1 (2 in writing)
Poem compilations (2012, 2013, 2015)


And there are rougly these categories:

Linguistic Inventions (no numbered parts)
Opinions not Cared about (no numbered parts)
Reports (like this one)
Dada and spam (DESU, Lorém i psům, I was bored)
Poems (only occasionally German section)
Stories (describing the imaginary parallel universe)


And these labels:

Articles - this blog's exclusive bullshit
Poetry - mostly German bullshit, I like creating poems in language I don't know that much about
Prose - fictional bullshit, sometimes sent for review to school compos or writing exams, it's still my intellectual property that I only licenced to the school
ZOMFGWTFBBQ - crazy ideas that never "catch on" (Wikipedia style "I think no-one likes it.") and nonsensical bullshit (maybe Dada)
CZ, DE, EN - Intended for separate language feeds


Here's a graph of article frequency per month, nice ANSI:

Jan 2014 - Facebook notes backport
May 2015 - 1st Getman's Adventures
Sep/Oct 2015 - No ideas and fixing my once-great PC
Jan 2016 - Number of articles including this one, 10000 views hit
Feb/Mar 2016 - Estimated



Concerning my electronic devices, I find it really strange my cellphone from 2014 has 2*4 ARM cores and Android games look like from PS3 on it and run just about fine, but my netbook from 2011 has only 2 Atom cores and almost no GPU. GMA 3150 is not a real GPU, it can barely run Counter-Strike 1.6 at 60 FPS on non-trivial maps. Do you even still have a PC that struggles with cs_KVARTAL? Me yes, I suck just for even using XP and I know it. I can still troll you with Latin 2 from the MS-DOS Editor in the Czech edition. You'll have to set font to Terminal 14 to even read it (writing is still screwed up) if you simply try to open it in Notepad. Doesn't this mean IBM-PC by itself (Wintel, BIOS) is dead and retro and now we use various crippled Unix-like distros like iOS or Android? Time to get PS4 or XB1 (PCs not adhering to 1981 specs) and hack FreeBSD (not that bastardized distro in PS4), respectively OpenSUSE (reportedly best NTFS compatibility) on them.

Before I finished this post, the "10000" post served as a placeholder. On orthodox Christmas, this number of total hits was hit. When I 1st I noticed it, it was 10030. This high amount of viwes over all the time might also come from prefetching and auditing. On average, this blog is getting 5000 views per year. In last week there even have been more than 100 views per a single day, mostly owing to constantly refreshing until the total pageview counter exceeds myriad. I am one of the few people who use this word for 10000. Because I'm lazy and procrastinating, by the time this article will be up (and 1st person other than me reads it), it'll surely reach 11000.
