  1. Installing Belenix 0.8 beta 5:39 AM Dec 20th from web
  2. Sorely tempted by the Toshiba NB200 netbook running OpenSolaris. Time to start dropping hints. 8:29 AM Nov 26th from web
  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. 12:37 PM Nov 22nd from web
  4. Yay! Two months of lousy broadband, finally fixed by a new cable modem. Back to fun. 1:10 PM Nov 12th from web
  5. Bitwise operators. I think I learnt the theory 30 years ago and haven't needed to use one since. Until today. 2:50 PM Nov 9th from web
  6. Virgin media - customer disservice personified 1:12 PM Nov 6th from web
  7. Upgrading VirtualBox to 3.0.10 8:10 AM Nov 1st from web

  9. Bad things about being a department of one: having to put barcode labels on tapes yourself. 1:35 AM Oct 23rd from web

  14. Fair weather cyclist. Raining hard. Caved in and drove to work. 1:36 AM Oct 6th from web
  15. Cycled to work for over 4 weeks now. Weather looks like it'll break the run soon, though. 12:47 AM Oct 5th from web
  16. What's up with Virgin's network? My home broadband access has been dismal for a fortnight, and is getting worse. 1:00 PM Sep 27th from web
  17. Interesting: average processor count (including cores, threads) on the systems I use is about 16 - my home workstation feels left out 12:04 PM Sep 8th from web
  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. 4:58 AM Sep 7th from web
  19. So xfce has a git repository - off to install a git client 1:58 PM Sep 3rd from web
