  1. RT @glynmoody: Microsoft's Empty Promise - http://bit.ly/OozlT clear & detailed explanation of what the problems with C# & Mono are #swpats
  2. RT @stephanefr - http://bit.ly/Y7ISQ nice test, very tricky, I failed. On the other hand, I don't want to work for the Swedish army.
  3. Excellent. How public service announcements /ought/ to be: http://bit.ly/12BYPZ
  4. has, after 2 late nighters, a working W2K3 SBS box, so now he has somewhere to backup all the stuff that he... um... no longer has. Bugger.
  5. The heavens have opened on me to commemorate the great achievement of Messrs Armstrong, Aldrin & Collins, 40y ago today.
  6. is liking the Inquirer's link-of-the-day today: http://www.thomasdolby.com/
  7. ... Go on, guess what the next song was. Guess. 9" Nails, that well-known covers band...
  8. NIИ LIVE: made of win. Excellent gig. Special guest: Gary Numan! @veewwd said: "I keep waiting for him to break into Cars. Er, as it were."
  9. @chrisblohm Yes, they played Hurt &, it was magical. But they skipped /Closer/, to many's vexation. I wanted the Kirk-slash-Spock song live.
  10. @fiscarlett Wasn't up in the gods this time, no. 1st tier, I think. But right down the far end, something like ½ a mile from the stage. :¬)
  11. Hm. Didn't know NIN *did* slow ones or piano instrumentals. I must be terribly ignorant. Should be used to that, mind.
  12. Why I Don't Usually Do Arena Gigs: the O2 is *big*. By eye, I couldn't tell Perry Farrell from Perry Como at this range.
  13. As Douglas Adams said, “Writing is easy. You only need to stare at a piece of blank paper until your forehead bleeds”. Today, it's a screen.
  14. TG Daily - Global warming theories 'incomplete'. Interesting piece but I'm suspicious there's no mention of CH4 levels. http://tinyurl. ...
  15. A bit of contrarianism from the Spectator: "Meet the man who has exposed the great climate change con trick" http://tinyurl.com/m8p95s
  16. Sitting glumly reinstalling PC. P*ss*ng down outside. At least I beat the rain home. Yay. PS: I /do/ take backups. That drive's dead too.
  17. In other news, the primary hard disk of my main PC's died. Lost everything. This is NOT proving to be a good day.
  18. Took a gamble on the weather: cycled to the Croydon pubmeet. Lost: it's pouring down out there. :-( BUGGER. #weatherfail
  19. Perceptive piece on realistic actions against fossil fuels from Slate: http://www.slate.com/id/222...
  20. RT @stephanefr: Greenland is now losing about 300 gigatonnes of ice per year http://htxt.it/7Dx6 #globalwarming
