Soup.io will be discontinued :(

Dear soup.io fans and users,
 
today, we have to share very sad news. Soup.io will stop working in less than 10 days. :(
 
It's breaking our heart and we honestly tried whatever we could to keep the platform up and running. But the high costs and low revenue streams made it impossible to continue with it. We invested a lot of personal time and money to operate the platform, but when it's over, it's over.
 
We are really sorry. Soup.io is part of the internet history and online for one and a half decades.
 
Here are the hard facts:
- In 10 days the platform will stop working.
- Backup your data in this time
- We will not keep backups nor can we recover your data
 
July, 20th, 2020 is the due date.
 
Please, share your thoughts and feelings here.
 
Your Soup.io TEAM

Blogs are so over, Wired magazine says

I’m mostly doing FriendFeed. Not Twitter.

Hey, didn’t you hear? Blogs are so 2004. They’re dead now, says Paul Boutin (who also writes for Valleywag) in a piece he wrote

Precisely why I’m hardly blogging at Wordpress. Nothing new. Same old same old.

I didn’t know that I cant use the same external hard disk for Mac and PC. Gotta buy another one for PC now. :| Oh btw, using Time Machine is very convenient. Works like a charm.

so true. comics teach the biggest lessons in life.

So Apple’s good earnings release didn’t seem to help the stock price much. I wanted to sell of my shares today, but as_of_now, I’m not getting much in profits. Almost negligible. :( Also losing money on other stocks. NASDAQ/DOW/S&P lost more than 650 points late afternoon and I almost cried. All I can do is hope for a better day tomorrow.

I just feel like sobbing now. :’(

Looks like the commodities will have another bad day at the Wall Street. Hoping to buy some steel stocks and sell off Apple soon.
I just started using Twitbin. It’s so much better than the Mac app Twucket. Easy to use for sure. I just have two firefox addons- Twitbin and Facebook. So I think I’m ok for now.

Really heart breaking to see such a powerful animal at rest.

Supposedly, the credit crunch has become better- the LIBOR rate has decreased, indicating that worldwide banks are ready to lend each other at a lower interest rate.

Apple’s earnings release turned out to be good. The negative guidance seems to be incorporated into the current stock price to some extent. Hence there doesn’t seem to be any negative connotation. I got in at the right moment. Hoping to rake in a small profit tomorrow. :D

Ze MacBook

  1. Why are there only 2 USB ports? I could totally do with two more.

  2. Why isn’t there an easy way to maximize the window? When everything else is so easy, why is this not easy? Instead, I need to click on my trackpad and drag the lower right edge.

  3. Isn’t there anything called Defrag? Disk clean up? I guess OS X doesn’t need PC type maintenance.

  4. I imported lots of old songs from some previous back up CDs and I’m so pleased! It feels so nice to listen to old stuff…after so long.

  5. I ordered a 500 GB external hard disk online. I think I’ve lost too many pics and now I really care. And I’m giving Mozy a try. If I like it, I’ll take up their unlimited online back-up plan. Anything to keep my music, pictures, comics and files safe! It actually feels so nice to dig out old stuff. :D

  6. I’m totally geeking out tonight.

  7. Oh, and it’s so easy to install a printer. In fact, all I had to do is plug in the printer and that’s it! Don’t laugh now- I’m an ex-PC user. What else can you expect? ;)

  8. Now only if AAPL (Apple) stock were to fall tomorrow to $93-95 so that I can pick up a few and make some quick bucks.

I admit to a personal interest. I have a 9-year-old son named Omar. I firmly believe that he will be able to do absolutely anything he wants in this country when he grows up. But I admit that I will feel more confident about his future if a man named Barack Obama became president of the United States.

It’s weird…you know the end of something great is coming, but you want to hold on, just for one more second…just so it can hurt a little more.

Finally getting off the couch and getting ready to feed my stomach. I’m not being able to leave my MacBook behind. It’s too addictive.

I try to minimize the use of Apps. I hate all kinds of clutter.

I bought a SketchPad last night. I hope I can start drawing again. It’s been more than 10 years, I think.

I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it’s not some place you can look for, ‘cause it’s not where you go. It’s how you feel for a moment in your life when you’re a part of something, and if you find that moment…
it lasts forever…

Leonardo Di Caprio (the beach) (via kari-shma)

Last night, I had done a lot of shopping- expensive stuff like my MacBook and relatively inexpensive stuff like the toilet bowl tablet that remains stuck to the bowl and keeps cleaning the pot in every wash. Funnily, I smiled more when I was installing the toilet bowl tablet. Money isn’t worth much. Paradise and happiness is. Sorry if it sounds cheesy.
