Welcome to PlanetKass.net, the home of Kassidy M Kearey, also known in some circles as "kassidynet", and often seen brandishing a camera, guitar, fountain pen, black trenchcoat and hat (but not all, necessarily, at the same time).

He's also a tad bonkers.

Here you'll find, when he gets round to publishing any content, the occasional musing, photograph, or musical endeavour, coupled in with various other bits and bobs as time goes by. Feedback is always welcome, as is the occasional pint of Guinness, so feel free to drop him a line:

MS Never Happy

I hate Microsoft SharePoint with a passion. It is the most utterly useless pile of turd they have released since WinME. When viewing a folder of documents, I am given the option to "View in Windows Explorer" no matter what browser I use, but knowing the compatibility issues trying to load this in Firefox under Linux would present, I log in to a remote Windows system and open it in Internet Exploder. What am I presented with?

Remembering Barry

 I could have sworn I just left this party.

Barry

I've spent the past two weeks carrying my Moleskine around with me jotting down notes for this occasion, trying to work out what on earth to say about Barry, and  it isn't out of a lack of things to say about him, but instead out of not even knowing where to start. So you can probably expect this to be very disjointed and muddled. Picture the scene right now as I type this out: sat at the breakfast bar in the office at 2 in the morning, where Barry and I have spent the better part of the past 3 years either sharing a chippy dinner in the evening, sometimes with Sonic if he was still around the office at that hour, or handing over our respective shift's work in the morning over a cup of tea as the office fills up with people giving us bewildered looks, as if to wonder if we ever left the breakfast bar the night before.

Part of me is expecting him to walk in through the door, sit down in front of me, and say something like "You know this speech you've been working on? Well I've been giving it some thought, and I might just have the angle you're looking for", as was so often the case. Whether it was the drainage in my garden, the slow loading times of my computer, or an annoying "donk donk donk" sound coming from my car, as if I'd left something down the back, he was never short of an idea or two, and would come back days later if he thought of something. ...click to continue...

Cross

Cross at the top of a hill in La Nucia, Alicante, Spain. HDR composite from 3 shots, taken hand-held laying on the ground. The dark patch in the bottom right corner is in fact my trousers. I only realised this recently...

"Anonymous" Comments

I have found what could probably be considered my first "silly" gripe with Drupal, and that is the default action for Anonymous comments. Since I don't necessarily plan to start opening regular accounts for people (not enough traffic will ever visit this site to warrant that, let's be honest), comments to blog entries and the ilk will be of the "anonymous" kind, which is fine and dandy. I think just about any blogging tool allows this now. ...click to continue...

Altea by Day

Altea by Day

Altea, east coast of Spain, another panoramic shot. This time going for a 180, this was a 9 or 10 shot stitch together. OK, almost 180, I cropped a van out of the picture.
