So I’m walking along the Pyrmont Bridge heading home after work and I see a guy with a Marimekko bag. Its completely black and I think to myself “Who the hell buys a freaking black Marimekko bag?!?”. It was the most annoyed I’d been all day.

For those of you who grab stuff via Bittorrent using azureus, here’s a nice setup. I installed the html webui for azureus and started azureus in console-ui mode. You’ll need to grab these two extra .jar files [1,2]. Throw them into your into the directory where you have azureus installed and run the following command to startup azureus:

java -jar Azureus2.jar --ui=console

Things will kick off, and now you have a remotely accessable azureus on port 6886 (by default). I’ve setup my firewall rules so that I can access the webui from work, just in case. Oh, I guess you’ll want to configure the webui with a username and password as well. You can do that in the options for plugin when azureus is running in GUI mode.

Once its all setup, you’ll get something this:

Then you’ll be able to stop, start, upload, remove torrents remotely. Nice

After a bit of off-time, I’m back again. My blog (and Rozie’s) has been moved to another of the Dorja servers (thanks Troy!) Now that things are back up and running (and that I’m back in the City) I’ll be blogging more regulary.
