Musings on a world I am no longer sure about

Woo. Yay. Etc.

fedora too (Intel open source accelerated graphics driver, wifi, bluetooth, etc). Which is pretty shiny. It’s just like my work one but a teensy bit slower and was a mere £430 off of eBay. Am dead chuffed. My first laptop bought without the aid of credit too ; ) Went to “A Binary Minefield” last week, Léigh’s clubnight. It was great fun, chilling out on a big leather sofa watching people perform bizarre but deeply cool electronica at us. Took many many pics (see flickr) and a bit of video too. Novak died. And what’s more, she died on the day I accidentally bought a £400 laptop off of eBay, meaning I couldn’t afford to mend her. Suddenly stopped booting and there was a nasty smell of burnt sillicon about her. Got back from A Binary Minefield to discover this and so sat up until 1am fashioning a temporary server out of bits of Oliver’s old celeron. Which worked well enough to tide me over until the weekend : ) Jamie came over at the weekend and donated us a P4 motherboard and chip, I spent a time cleaning things out and making everything work as it should. Fingers crossed it’ll all be better now. Dom popped round to pick up the überPC I’ve been building him too. He seems happy with it, which is good : ) Wrote my first SQL server stored procedure. Got Owen to help out with bits of the new freakcity. Have created the front page. Need to build more of it before I put it on beta...hoping to get a feature complete version up in the next month or so, complete with customisable front page and some funky accessibility stuff. This rewrite will be from scratch tho, so might take longer, but hopefully will be leaner and work better. Lunching means I’ve dried out a bit and am munching sushi, which is good. Apparently the weather in Glastonbury should be good tomorrow, which is noice. Hopefully seeing Danny on Friday, if he sorts his shit out. Am so looking forward to 5 days with not much to do. Was off work yesterday because I felt shite. Feeling a bit better now tho, but still not great. Growing a bit bored of facebook. Wonder what the next big thing is gonna be? This made me giggle: Picture (clicky) Out cycling yesterday to top up my ill ill ill bank balance, biked past Lee Hurst walking his doggie in Limehouse Basin. In a lovely hat too. Aww... I’ve just been moved at work. I now get a window seat : ) Camping tomorrow. Packing tonight. I am happy. Back to work Wednesday.
