  1. Installing Belenix 0.8 beta
  2. Sorely tempted by the Toshiba NB200 netbook running OpenSolaris. Time to start dropping hints.
  3. Half way through complete refit of kitchen and bathroom. Paying someone to do it in 2 weeks; it would take me 2 years and wouldn't work.
  4. Yay! Two months of lousy broadband, finally fixed by a new cable modem. Back to fun.
  5. Bitwise operators. I think I learnt the theory 30 years ago and haven't needed to use one since. Until today.
  6. Virgin media - customer disservice personified
  7. Upgrading VirtualBox to 3.0.10
  8. Skull shaped donut, with jam for blood. Must be halloween coming up.
  9. Bad things about being a department of one: having to put barcode labels on tapes yourself.
  10. Work internet connection down because it's saturated. Virus suspected; now looks like it's our antivirus system that's at fault.
  11. Investigating Solaris 8 Containers
  12. Looking forward to going down to LOSUG tonight, after having to miss a couple of meetings.
  13. Home internet connection getting worse. Definitely down into kilobits.
  14. Fair weather cyclist. Raining hard. Caved in and drove to work.
  15. Cycled to work for over 4 weeks now. Weather looks like it'll break the run soon, though.
  16. What's up with Virgin's network? My home broadband access has been dismal for a fortnight, and is getting worse.
  17. Interesting: average processor count (including cores, threads) on the systems I use is about 16 - my home workstation feels left out
  18. Trying to return faulty equipment. Contact on vacation, office not answering, email down, and they'll charge if they don't get it back. Hm.
  19. So xfce has a git repository - off to install a git client
  20. Random extra callers on concalls is sort of strange
