Welcome to my tiny homepage. It is still far from finished. One day, it might become a full-featured weblog. Check back in a few months.
My name is Rudolf Thomas. However, everyone calls me Rudo Thomas or just Rudo.

This is how I looked like on 22 Sep 2003. Be warned that the big picture is not postprocessed at all (except for cropping out the extra space). In other words, both the teeth and the complexion are geniune. (Which is both good, and bad, respectively.) |
In September 2005, I have successfully finished my Computer science studies at Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University, Prague, the Czech Republic. You can take a look on my master thesis.
I was born in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia. Since 1993 Bratislava has been the capital of Slovakia.
I consider myself being shy, too cautious, I do not talk too much, I get angry very easily and quite often, I think I try to be precise when doing something. And I am late most of the time ;-) Any comments appreciated, see below for ways to contact me.
...and I absolutely detest smokers when they smoke near me. Be it tobacco, marijuana, or anything else. I cannot stand the smoke itself, neither the stink of it. I would ban smoking on the streets and all public places. While it is already prohibited to smoke at places like bus stops, those who break the rules (the law, actually) are not punished enough, however. I am very proud that I do not smoke. (That is why this paragraph is under the facts section, and not under the next one.)
I recently "discovered" that at my heart I am bad. I am trying hard to hide it (and I am actually pretty good at it), but deeply inside I am full of anger, envy and... sigh, nevermind. Update: It turns out to be a bit better, I might be neutral (or even good?!) actually.
A controversial one. I do not think that drinking alcohol is the biggest fun on the Earth, I do sports instead. Currently, I play squash (just for fun) and floorball (for FBC Tasmansti Certi [page in Czech] -- Floorball Club Tasmanian Devils). I also play football (soccer, that is), basketball, or volleyball.
Firstly, I have to say that I have always wanted to write an essay about what I and the others call art. Almost certainly, I will do that one day. For now, just the main idea -- one must distinguish art, creative works and technique (skill). What is more, there is no such a thing as universally good piece of artistic work (read: art, creative works, or technique). Your views may vary, of course.
I would also like to mention monopoly abuse, stupid laws, loss of privacy, to name three topics. Unfortunately, I do not have much time to write about these. Who would care anyway? Virtually nobody is reading these lines. If you do, and want to read about (or discuss) some of the aforementioned issues, or just want me to know that you have made it this far through my site, drop me an e-mail.
...dance and drink and screw, because there's nothing else to
do
(from the song "Common Peple" by Pulp)
I write of the great, eternal truths that bind together all
mankind! The whole world over, we eat, we shiP, we Duck, we kill and we die.
(from the movie "Quills" written by Doug Wright; censored by me - some search engines
block pages that contain certain 4-letter words)
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do
with your life... the most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what
they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds
I know still don't.
(from the song "Everybody Is Free (To Wear Sunscreen)" by Baz Luhrmann)
...it's better to regret something you have done than to
regret something you haven't done
(from the song "Satan" by Orbital;
they actually borrowed the sample from the song "Sweat Loaf" by Butthole Surfers)
What upsets me is not that you lied to me, but that from now
on I can no longer believe you.
(Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche)
Everything around us can be represented and understood through
numbers.
(from the motion picture "Pi" written by Darren Aronofsky, and
Sean Gullette)
You can contact me by e-mail. I won't post my irish mobile number here, sorry.
I also have an ICQ account, the UIN is 22662707.
