• Got distracted from reconciling my bank statements by entering my total phone history with Orange into a spreadsheet. 00:33:56, 2011-04-30
• I now know the average amount of use I actually get from my phone. About 35min of calls a month & 207 texts. Texts peak at 480 in May 2009. 00:36:41, 2011-04-30
• Average may be around the 200 mark, but it peaks over a lot, sometimes over 300. When it goes over, it goes over by a lot. 00:39:03, 2011-04-30
• Sad thing is I'd still be paying less on just about ANY PAYG plan. And this is on contract. 00:39:52, 2011-04-30
• Grabbing some tea and cake. Going to finish getting the bank statements into GnuCash and call that it for tonight. 01:03:10, 2011-04-30
• Just realised you have to be VERY careful not to miss the apostrophe in "who're" 02:00:12, 2011-04-30
• O2 have a PAYG plan called "Simplicity". £10 top-up gets you unlimited texts & £2.50 of credit. Sounds decent so far. 02:16:38, 2011-04-30
• Don't understand why the tariff is £5.50 *more* if you go for it as a contract though. wth? 02:21:26, 2011-04-30
• RIGHT. Business statements are transferred and updated. Will do the rest of the accounts tomorrow/sunday. Now, bed. 02:42:16, 2011-04-30
• A storage idea just hit me that's either fantastic or really stupid! 03:51:05, 2011-04-30

• @retallicka Oooh, I should say so! All together? in reply to retallicka 03:15:03, 2011-04-29

• Wondering if most peeps who rage against wedding are simply misanthropes who dislike all "mindless" mass gatherings? 15:36:20, 2011-04-29

• Thankyou Firefox for updating my browser just to tell me of another update. One that is incompatible with ALL my plugins. 15:52:59, 2011-04-29
• But apparently they're all still installed and working anyway. 15:53:16, 2011-04-29
• Misanthropes comment: I said it because for all my justifications of not watching the wedding, part of me still just hates mass worship. 15:55:53, 2011-04-29
• #Firefox4; My ebay search now goes only to Ebay USA, and I can't find any way of altering it or adding the UK only one again. 16:51:44, 2011-04-29

Fixing the internal gallery is going to take a bit longer than anticipated. I’m already reorganising the layout, but there’s quite a few items I never got around to putting on it and a few hundred master images to sift through. And once the new and better quality images are up I’ll have to go back through all the previous blog entries and correct image links.

Might be a day or two.

• New blog post: CF-28 specifications data-dump http://www.sci-fi-fox.com/?p=959 00:54:06, 2011-04-28

• F-this, I'm just going to grab a mirror of the gallery as it it, sort it, then re-upload it. #FasterBetterStronger 01:27:07, 2011-04-28

• Also someone's dumped a crapload of screws and bolts in the alley. Sharp & pointy things. Going to knock together a magnet-sweeper quickly. 16:07:27, 2011-04-28

Clearing up some old server folders and found some stats I accumulated about the CF-28 Toughbook. I don’t know why I had them bundled away under my business directories, so I’m going to dump them here quickly. I was interested in getting one at one point, but while they were very upgradable for a laptop, the base spec is now just too low.

Interesting thing though, if you’re willing to replace some of the soldered-on RAM chips and re-program the memory map chip, the mainboard chipset should have been able to get to a whole 1Gb!

Anyway..
