  1. @lqd @RichardBuckle that did the trick; thanks. Wasn’t aware it was its own client.
  2. Has anyone figured out how to use @tweetbot’s keyword filter to remove four square checkins?
  3. @Cocoanetics depends which branch you are pushing, and where it’s upstream branch is configured (remote.branch)
  4. @fraserspeirs @secboffin there have certainly been a few updates since it first launched. I think originally it was a simple uiview web app.
  5. @kingargyle @maxandersen I concur - but commenting on the bug will have more impact.
  6. @fraserspeirs I seem to recall there were problems when I was disconnected from the Internet. I saved a PDF into books which worked too.
  7. Caution: if you are using Tycho 0.15 it will break earlier versions running on the same box: bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.…
  8. @abizern Success! Turns out Blazing Saddles is on tonight on ITV4 at 9pm.
  9. @abizern thanks for the warning. Will look for different entertainment opportunities tonight.
  10. @olivergierke @springframework @springrod but there’s still plenty of spring products (e.g. Roo) that aren’t I’m central. How come?
  11. Google camera car roving round via Milton Keynes today - two can play at that game. twitter.com/alblue/status/…
  12. @geoffreywiseman I find that’s an excellent way to filter out people whom I don’t want to add to my contacts :-)
  13. It’s a beautiful day in Milton Keynes, and the @bletchleypark forties festival today couldn’t have asked for better. Not a cloud in the sky!
  14. @prapicault @irbull @eclipseguru could even throw on a spdy front end. Merging the artefacts and contents would help too.
  15. @mcculls thanks, btw.
