2019 Ngeblog Lagi? Mbelgedhes!

2019 Ngeblog Lagi? Emang bisa? Mbelgedhes!

Bisa mbelgedhes, bisa juga tidak mbelgedhes sih... :)

Wong dulu pernah bisa ngeblog rutin dan terjadwal selama beberapa tahun (ingat, beberapa tahun lho) saja bisa langsung lesu dan lemah lunglai dan akhirnya tiarap kok. Ya tapi kan boleh bangga dong, karena bukan masuk dalam kategori ejakulasi dini. Ya itu tadi, kuat bertahan beberapa tahun lhooo...

Teringat, awal ngeblog menggunakan domain sendiri ini adalah pertengahan 2009 lalu. Dan kenyataannya tiga tahun sebelum itu, yaitu tahun 2006, zaman belum ramai facebook, masih sebatas fiendster, juga sudah mencoba menulis di blog lho. Ya meski saat itu belum familiar dengan kata blog & blogger.

Tulisannya tetap campur bawur. Kadang sok serius alim nan bijak, sering juga alay, dan tak jarang menye-menye. Begitulah, mengalir saja...

Kali ini, mau memulai lagi, mumpung masih tanggal satu :)
Perihal tulisan ya maunya juga masih ngalir saja. Seangkan ratusan tulisan yang lalu-lalu, entah nanti mau dinaikin lagi, atau sudah bekukan saja. Manut mood, dan tentu saja juga melihat dukungan koneksi internet berbanding beaya pulsa-data.

Jadi piye?
Tetap mbelgedhes?

Where does "Lorem Ipsum" Come From?

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet ..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by Bahasa Inggeris versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humor, or randomized words which do not look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there is not anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humor, or non-characteristic words etc.

What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do We use Lorem Ipsum?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Text "Lorem Ipsum" is

"Lorem ipsum" text is derived from sections 1.10.32-3 of Cicero's De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum (On the Ends of Goods and Evils, or alternatively [About] The Purposes of Good and Evil). [2] The original passage began: neque porro quisquam dolorem qui est ipsum quia dolor sit amet velit consectetur adipiscing (translation: "Neither is there anyone who loves, pursues or desires pain because it is pain itself").

It is not known exactly when the text acquired its current standard form; it may have been as late as the 1960s. Dr. Richard McClintock, a Latin scholar who was the director of publications at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, discovered the source of the passage sometime before 1982 while searching for instances of the Latin word "consectetur", rarely used in classical literature. [1] [a] the physical source of the lorem ipsum text may be the Loeb Classical Library 1914 Edition of the de Finibus, where the Latin text finishes page 34 with "qui est neque porro quisquam do-" and begins page 36 with " lorem ipsum (et seq.) ... ", suggesting that the galley type of that page 36 was scrambled to make the dummy text seen today.
