Microblogging weekly: 2010-07-12

  • Just died at last minute on GTA IV bank robbing mission. Wow. Seriously good mission. #
  • @mooseguy well you better have a copy that we can install.. #
  • The new tighter Twitter API limit is hitting even me :( #
  • @sinewave wow I had no idea Windows 7 had features. #
  • Really pleased to have found how to turn off stupid Windows 7 libraries: http://bit.ly/2da5IG #
  • Let's see if the latest SuperGrub disk can get me booted into Debian. #
  • Currently playing with musca. Pretty impressed thus far. #
  • musca is a lot more scriptable (from sh scripts and the like) than dwm. Figuring out best way of doing web browsing etc. #
  • @moose I can never get to my homedir with them. More importantly, I can organise things myself, I don't need Windows to. #
  • @mooseguy haha I have plenty of browsers. Just figuring out how to integrate them. #
  • WALLOP shadow $ Did you know that in "Back to the Future", the Doc sets DeLorean's clock to a date 25 years forward. That day is today. #
  • Half ten. Going to have a little session scripting musca. #
  • @roberthl you can get a list of running apps usnig dmenu; there's no bar like in dwm. It's even more minimal in that respect. #
  • Got my simple script doing what I want with minimal hassle. Not much more to figure out before musca is doing what I want. #
  • Hit a brick wall with getting musca to do what I want. Turning away from it for now. Hopefully I can come back. #
  • @Peppery chch is evil :( Watch your back around it… #
  • @brionv ahhh so many hours wasted to that one :) #
  • Time for a little DotA. #
  • Finally got those two GTA mainstays: the rocket launcher and access to car bombs. Now we're talking. #
  • Hacking musca. It would really, really help if I actually knew C; too much guesswork :\ #
  • :qw #
  • Oh my goodness. Feature I am hacking in already exists. Out-of-date project wiki ftl. #
  • Epic win, Scroogle is back :-) #
  • Epic win, extended musca to provide the feature I needed. Now to send the (pathetically coded) patch in to the author. #
  • @mshaw_uk Twitter is being a pain. What's the URL to your new JP blog? #
  • Noooooooo WHY do I not LOOK at my diary before arranging things :\ Just double-booked @mooseguy's concert :\:\ #
  • That's the .xinitrc changed over. I've switched to Musca :-) #
  • Don't you just hate it when you wipe out neat hacks :\ #
  • @mooseguy go chek your e-mail. #
  • In the minibus heading out on a ringing outing. Just saw a sign for Goole, @nicola_sugden! #
  • Lost in a minibus in the countryside near Goole. #
  • I do like visiting churches: http://twitpic.com/23k7ni http://twitpic.com/23j8h6 #
  • At a barbeque in a very rich couple's house. #
  • @mooseguy I emailed you! This is worrying :S i may have messed zephyr's new install up; will check. in reply to mooseguy #
  • Handbell ringing going on. Trying to remember how to do it. http://twitpic.com/23kfaf #
  • @mooseguy just sent you another e-mail and my e-mail is definitely not broken. Please check. #
  • Ahhhhh all mail send on zephyr since July 6th stuck in the mailqueue because I misconfigured local postfix :( Sorryt @mooseguy. #
  • While my zenburnt desktop is the best for productivity, I fancy some cool: going to bring out the transparency for a bit :D #
  • Miffed at how everyone else seems to have their @OxfordExams results and I don't. #
  • OOh, so my spam filter is working, my own filter is just ignoring its messages. #
  • Upgrading some packages on my squeeze box to the version in sid in order to allow it to boot… a tad worried about this. #
  • My room has got a bit out of control. Time for some tidying before lunch. Heading over to father's this weekend. #
  • @phoebe congratulations :-) #
  • @zzap yes, it's a word. #
  • About to set off into town. #
  • Sugar, my Oxford e-mail hasn't been downloading for about three weeks! Waiting for a flood of blah. #
  • Spent around four hours at @sinewave's trying to get his USB wifi adapter working under Ubuntu. Failed. #
  • Upgraded bitlbee to the backports version to fix MSN support, and this means we have Twitter support which should please @sinewave. #
  • @Mattspeakswords present for you: (sorry if I have sent it you before…) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81fhAkDfsUM #
  • About to head to @mooseguy's house for a lift to Wakefield to see him in concert. #
  • In Wakefield Cathedral to hear @mooseguy, @tintachan and friends in concert. @superarty here too. #
  • @Peppery how is the UK not sane?! in reply to Peppery #
  • Just wrote a reaaaaaaaly long e-mail advocating CLIs in reply to someone arguing I am wasting my time. #
  • @secretlondon you apple whore you :P #
  • Seems that conky has ncurses mode now. Nice, now I can monitor athena really easily. #
  • @sinewave why envy? #
  • @nicola_sugden have you got your results yet? #
  • Going to create a new mail folder, "stalled", to house all the stuff I can't bear to archive but am not going to get done :( #
  • It's coming up to 6pm. It is determined: barring unforeseen occurances, I will have my inbox tamed before I go to bed tonight. #
  • Too cold inside; going to sit in sun and read these e-mails on Father's laptop. #
  • @sinewave did you unlock the two additional cores? #
  • @sinewave that is quite possibly grub fail; it may need to know cores in advance. So don't give up. #
  • @sinewave oh right I see what you mean. Nah, grub isn;t running by that point. #
  • My #twitter age is 812 days 8 hours 56 minutes 40 seconds. Find out yours at http://twitter.seocoder.org/ #twittertime #
  • Family watching world cup final in same room computer is n:( #
  • @sinewave come on gtalk/irc/smth. #
  • Just helped to persuade @sinewave to deactivate his Facebook account. #
  • Six thousand tweets. That's quite something. If I hadn't had that hiatus it'd be sickeningly higher… #
  • Down to exactly three hundred messages in my inbox, and it's 8:30. This is not going to be easy. #
  • Down to 45 unread. #
  • Need to catch up on SilentFlame's bookwork. #
  • There's £450 in SilentFlame's bank account that is probably mine. But I want to be sure before transferring it out. #
  • I'm too tired to safely do these finances so my inbox clearing quest is postponed until the morning. #
  • @mooseguy you care? #
  • Syncing up and signing off. #
