Listening to Maiden's Number of the Beast. First heard it in about 1989 after borrowing the LP from Leeds City Library. Those were the days.
Taking advantage of a weekend in the UK to buy up a stack of MP3s on Amazon. Re-buying my old Maiden albums.
1830 Friday night and LCY has two - 2 immigration guys working. Nice queue - welcome to Britain.
@GeorgeReese I especially love it when they enforce a long password but disallow numbers or punctuation.
@VideoNasty The image I get in my head is more 'trampsta' than 'gangsta'
@om_nick @MattPovey :D. http://www.guardian.co.uk/travel... - Bradford @#4 and Brum @#6. Still, the article was written by a Southerner as #1 is in London
@om_nick Rubbish. Bradford is the correct spot.
I've often wondered (and thought, no) whether Google would bring navi to maps. Forgot that Goog don't care about the biz itself necessarily.
Anyone shorting Garmin or TomTom stock will have just made a mint thanks to Google: http://www.engadget.com/2009... Navigation's about to get free(ish)
@davidkspencer The good thing is that they seem to have got the balance of free -v- paid functionality spot on. The free v adds just enough.
Just got a good old fashioned crossed line with an angry sounding Russian lady. Maybe someone is bugging me old school.
I guess that's what happens when you call a UK based mate who is on hols in the caribbean when roaming yourself in Finland
@davegraham You can de-auth all computers (do it through your account settings) but if you forget to de-auth before rebuild: Apple say no
@davegraham Also, you can only de-auth all once a year. I've just fallen for that (again). Luckily for me (this time) I P2Vd the old machine
Using the opening Yeah Yeah Yeah's 'Y Control' as my alarm clock tune this week was a bad idea. It's now stuck on permanent loop in my head.
@gabvirtualworld That's the usermode driver crashing and recovering which is pretty cool actually. The Intels seem to manage to BSOD though.
@DuncanYB All the BSODs I've had with Win7 from beta onwards have been down to Intel display\chipset\wlan drivers. Some things don't change!
@MichelleFlynn Was it a nice bike? Ask them to check for Tipex in the evidence room log book ;)
@renailemay Or worse, a former flatmate who would bring a new ... friend home every night and proceed to make cowboy noises from next room.
Kafka should be required reading for all servicedesk employees to give them an idea of what they are inflicting on their customers.
Got my first Win7 64bit BSOD. Might just have something to do with the updated Intel WLAN driver and SoftAP. By might just, I mean it is....
@renailemay @Jen_Bennet Won't last, they're lulling you into a false sense of security. Soon it'll be biology experiments in the fridge.
@daniel_eason I looked for one but couldn't find one. I think it's basically pot luck whether your WiFi driver supports it. Intel does.
Playing with Windows7's built in SoftAP (aka Virtual WiFi - sort of). Very cool toy - the 'netsh wifi...' command is your friend.
@dbiw Work - though it should be interesting and therefore (you'd hope), pleasuable :).
Preparing for a week in Finland.
RT @TheoEsc: I like XKCD's Geocities tribute today http://xkcd.com
Listening the the 'Chromatics' cracking cover of Kate Bush's 'Running up that hill' while doing expenses. It's appropriately soothing.
@karohemd Well. Maybe not unanimously but I'm right there with you in the 'it's bloody awful' camp.
Another cliche for #DefyingGravity: A sneak preview of next week's episode. Roll on Newsnight.
