The XBOX is a piece of shit

Thanks Microsoft. I have a console that’s barely over a year old and I already have an open tray error. I bought a new console because my old one died after I sent it back to you TWICE. It also had an open tray error. Thanks a lot Microsoft for MAKING SUCH A SHITTY CONSOLE. I have seen retarded monkeys make better console. Honestly, just what kind of shitty racket are you douchebags running? Are you guys so fucking stupid that you can’t even make a DVD drive that WORKS? Are you seriously THAT DUMB? Not only that, you want me to pay $99 to get it fixed because you retards are too damn stupid to make it right the first time? Fuck you.

vim: removing blank lines

This always seems to get me and I have to figure it out every time. Sometimes I have files with blank lines and I want to get rid of them. Here is how you do it in vim (one of the many ways, actually). First you want to get rid of whitespaces:

:%s/^\s\+$//

Note: I used a blockquote here because WordPress doesn’t like two forward slashes in the sourcecode tag.

Then, you have to do this:

:%!grep -v  "^$"

Of course, this only works in Linux, BSD, or any of the other Unices.
