  1. When doing a LAN–based VoIP call, the Sipura box continually asks NodePhone over the WAN to hang up the other (local) party. What the heck!?
  2. *cries* Networking is broken, and attempting to transfer files over Bluetooth results in corruption with random ‘AAAAA’ inserted throughout.
  3. Got a sore throat. Totally sleeping in tomorrow. ‘night world.
  4. For semi-sane scope behaviour in JavaScript, *always* declare your variables with var. Gives you local scope in functions, global outside.
  5. I have yet to see anything vaguely useful that uses Silverlight. Just an observation as a user.
  6. Dear GTK+ LazyWeb: In PyGTK, I am writing to a gtk.TreeStore from a thread without calling gtk.gdk.threads_init(). Is that evil?
  7. Honestly, UUID–based fstab is the best thing since sliced bread, as my IDE and SATA HDDs randomly compete for first place.
  8. @harrisony Awesome. What list is it? I wanna cause a few more. :-P
  9. I ♥ WordPress galleries. It has made setting this site up much more straightforward than I anticipated: http://ur1.ca/frf1 Simplicity wins.
  10. Mythbusters is on SBS now! Yays...
  11. @menza See if you can find an Android emulator app for iPhone. Now THAT would be cool.
  12. Whoops. Having somebody from IRC in your contact list in Pidgin means it polls every 60 seconds for their online status. Bad bad bad.
  13. Been breaking out in weird pimple-like rashes all over my arms this week. Allergic reaction from the tick I got last weekend, maybe?
  14. Watched “Secrets of the Freemasons” on ABC1 last night. Wasn’t worth it — was just chock full of conspiracy theories. Bah.
  15. I’m officially fed up with MediaWiki’s ‘redirects’ not actually being HTTP redirects. @brionv Any chance they will be fixed?
  16. Tomorrow is Black Friday. (a.k.a. Friday the 13th)
  17. @jdub You should definitely use Delicious more often. (It even lets you cross-post to Twitter nowadays.)
  18. @caskings My pleasure. I was wondering why my connection started goign extremely flaky and wouldn’t connect a few hours later. :-P
  19. It really surprises me just how many people reply to a noreply@ e-mail address. (Hint: enough to make watching that address worthwhile.)
  20. Feeling sorry for this 1TB drive after running BackupPC on it for the past few months. (And no, I’m not running ext4 on it. No way.)
