  1. Much as I love my Cub pack, I do wish I didn't have to stay up two hours past my bedtime to plan things for them.
  2. Dear @twitbeeb, I never understood the need for Caps Lock *AND* Shift Lock. Please explain yourself!
  3. @justinfleming home automation + distributed archive storage node!
  4. @stephenfry it's ok. I've done exactly the same.
  5. @Saffy nice tits?
  6. Yay, my raspberry pi has arrived!
  7. @diagnosedgeek no, but my bridge may have broken :-)
  8. @Saffy worry wifey! I was just a bit late, all is well :-)
  9. 6yo: I wish everything cost 1p me: (lecture on scarcity economics)

  11. @tickerguy bah! I had to reboot my NetBSD box yesterday because I needed to move it :-(
  12. @furrygirl :-( *hug*
  13. Google autosuggested "Limor Fried boyfriend". Guess I'm not the only one with a secret crush on @adafruit...
  14. @CarinaFearnley no need to apologise! @laurakalbag looks almost identical to you, do she's been filling in in your absence.
