You can have your sql query return the records with order by “a list of commaseparated values” which is very handy if you have do deal with lists of records stored as lists of ids. sorting in typo3 would be an example.

SELECT col1, col2, col3
FROM table1
WHERE col1 IN ('z', 'x', 'y')
ORDER BY find_in_set(col1, 'z,x,y');

if you happen to having bought hardware from idiot companies packing their firmware files as self extracting exe files, don’t feel stupid. we all do and we will all continue to do so. unfortunately.

usually: no problem:
unzip idiot-companies-stupid-firmware.exe
enjoy

now CANON.

f.ing stupid idiot company packing their f.ing firmware update into a self extracting exe that cannot be unpacked by unzip. ok, we are used to that, is that so stupid? well, you can unzip it with wine.

do:
mv e5kr4109.exe ~/.wine/drive_c/ficken.exe
cd ~/.wine/drive_c/
wine ficken.exe
[select where tu unzip it in one of those typical dialogs...]

now let’s get back to the stupid idiot part of it:

jj@haddock:~/.wine/drive_c/eosfirmware$ ls -l
total 14620
-rw-r–r– 1 jj jj 7397084 2008-06-25 11:11 e5kr4109.fir
-rw-r–r– 1 jj jj 7547856 2008-09-09 20:31 ficken.exe

yes.

one file.

one f’ing file that actually got larger by packing it into a stupid format that makes it inaccessible to parts of your customers. thank you stupid canon. thanks a lot stupid idiot canon. they even provide dmgs rotfl. i don’t want to know what’s in there hahahahaahaha;)
