With apologies to Douglas Adams..

“There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what Malta is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

There is another theory which states that this has already happened.”

Right-clicking on the partition you want to install on and selecting 'unmount' will fix the 'source image needs to be scanned' error.

Re: Sliema Parking Scheme enforcement from tomorrow

A Scicluna — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 15:54:05 -0000

Those who are saying they won't be visiting the establishments in Sliema are missing the point. Shop owners don't have a vote unless they live in the locality so the local council couldn't give a hoot about them closing down.

Re: Protesting social partners to attend today's MCESD meeting

In that case all the members with the exception of the labour leaning entities (I don't think we really need to mention names here) would have shown their approval. The only difference that would have made the situation worse, given past actions, is that at least one of the aforementioned entities would have acted on impulse and boycotted the meeting without thinking twice about it.

"Use the bus!" they said!

"It will be fun!" they said!

On that note, I found a small application for Windows that lets you scroll in a window even if it's not focused. So you can follow, read and scroll a tutorial in one and type in another, just like on the Mac.

Re: Is Firefox slower than other browsers? (Scripting News)

A Scicluna — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 04:48:24 -0000

I've converted to Chrome. I've never looked back. I thought I couldn't live without all my beloved Firefox plugins, now I know better! I used to have to restart firefox two or three times while going through my Google Reader news feed. With Chrome it just doesn't happen anymore.

Re: Why no hype for hi5?

A Scicluna — Mon, 23 Jul 2007 05:07:15 -0000

Ever considered the regional aspect? I have both. However, in this tiny island of ours Hi5 is really well known and everyone is on it, whereas Facebook is relatively unknown.

Re: Why do blogs exist ?

A Scicluna — Thu, 08 Jun 2006 09:39:27 -0000

For me it's a win-win situation. I've always loved writing and I do get more that my fair share of typing endless (useless?) memos at work. A blog gives me the chance to write about what I feel like commenting upon.
Basically, it's mine: if you don't agree (if anyone actually deigns to read it, that is), good. If you do, even better!
To be honest, I'm still at the stage where I get a kick seeing the stats slowly crawling upwards.. :D
