All cities should have Twitter accounts so they can leave creepy replies to people who say "CITYNAME, I am in you". 12:53:22, 2012-11-20
@ZeroShiBlue Walk-in applications or full CV? in reply to ZeroShiBlue 13:38:43, 2012-11-20
I really should scan the contents of these sketchpads. So many unfinished works. 13:44:49, 2012-11-20
Tearing sketchpads apart for content.. 14:22:46, 2012-11-20
Okay, scanner's working. Had to dig for the right program hidden in the suite though that actually gives you scan options.. 14:47:12, 2012-11-20
And I mean hidden. It's a randomly named EXE file in one of the suite bin dirs. None of the on-display software has scan settings. 14:48:09, 2012-11-20
HP Image Zone sets itself to first capture device. In this case, my TV card. No way of altering it. HP assuming it'll be the only input dev. 14:48:55, 2012-11-20
@ZeroShiBlue Were you at RBW09? Just found a note scrawled in the back of a sketchpad. Just says "Loui? – Cheap fursuits" o_O in reply to ZeroShiBlue 15:12:21, 2012-11-20
Hmm. Three hardback sketchbooks. Pages not made to tear out. Scalpel time? 15:14:36, 2012-11-20
@ZeroShiBlue Lol, too sensible to come join the ranks of the penniless self-employed huh? ;) in reply to ZeroShiBlue 15:15:40, 2012-11-20
Reminds me, chocolatiers make fancy chocolate. Would a dildoier make fancy dildos? 15:16:56, 2012-11-20

An anime version of the Bicentennial Man could leverage the Tsukumogami folklaw aspect pretty easily. 16:08:29, 2012-11-20
@ZeroShiBlue I'm envious of your autonomy tho. :) I wouldn't be able to try building up this job if I wasn't also stuck here at home. :P in reply to ZeroShiBlue 16:13:56, 2012-11-20
I need to make more use of Megabus to travel the UK. 16:17:12, 2012-11-20
@Huskyteer No tinsel poisoning? in reply to Huskyteer 16:29:06, 2012-11-20
@FarukuCostumes This is why I send invoices. Never give the buyer the option of sending in another currency. o_o; in reply to FarukuCostumes 16:45:25, 2012-11-20
@FarukuCostumes It has other benefits though. Invoices should have full itemised price breakdowns. By paying it's a contract for specific.. in reply to FarukuCostumes 16:51:22, 2012-11-20
@FarukuCostumes ..work. No arguing over details they meant to mention, or "forgotten" bits they expected for free. in reply to FarukuCostumes 16:52:12, 2012-11-20
@FarukuCostumes I recommend a good standard disclaimer though defining work quality and intended use of items. Just in case. in reply to FarukuCostumes 16:53:26, 2012-11-20
Yep. Think it's time for a cup of coffee. First in a week. 17:39:54, 2012-11-20
Well it appears my Tekkit world save has removed all Tekkit items. Except the rubber trees. Everything else though. 18:42:35, 2012-11-20
And it's back! Good thing I keep local daily backups of all my application data. ;) 18:49:45, 2012-11-20
@ZeroShiBlue Chinese-style ribs is where it's (f)at. Nom. in reply to ZeroShiBlue 19:24:33, 2012-11-20
Wait wait wait.. we have *26* CoE Bishops in the House of Lords? Just the Church of England. No other faiths. Elected by the CoE. 23:28:06, 2012-11-20
Apparently they *hope* to get it down to just 21 Bishops by the year 2020. 16 by 2025. 23:29:31, 2012-11-20
If one faith alone gets these special privileges, then we're a theocracy, plain and simple. 23:30:07, 2012-11-20

@ShanieTX Congratulations! :D How'd you swing that? :3 in reply to ShanieTX 22:52:40, 2012-11-19
Still a lot of hum on speakers left-channel. None with cable disconnected. So seems to be the cable, not the old amp. 23:11:17, 2012-11-19
@JezzKitty Holy shit D: in reply to JezzKitty 23:11:44, 2012-11-19
Having a peek on ebay for simple stereo amps. I don't really need a tuner anymore, or aux inputs, or 4 speakers for 2 channels. 23:40:12, 2012-11-19

Went downstairs 3.5hrs ago. The intervening time has been entirely taken up by being co-opted into repairing the central heating system. 15:07:12, 2012-11-18
First it was low pressure, then a leak, then going thru all the old plumbing bits, then 2 journeys to 3 shops looking for a single blank. 15:08:35, 2012-11-18
Anti-bully campaigns of varying sorts, saying bullying can lead to suicide. Telling bullies they have the power of life & death; good idea? 16:30:07, 2012-11-18
Re: last tweet. Problem with people who care trying to guilt people who don't. A lack of understanding the others POV. 16:42:29, 2012-11-18
I really hope the next psychological age of modern society is really *understanding* anothers point of view. 16:53:32, 2012-11-18
@kestenan @Vefessh I would say yes. And I suspect the ads do more good than harm. But their reception target is not the intended one. in reply to kestenan 20:02:39, 2012-11-18

Little bit very drunk. Tried many wines spirits and beers. Made notes. 2x QUAK the end of me. 00:14:16, 2012-11-17
Godshill miniatures tasting went well. Two bottles of Kwak afterwards not so much. Feeling a bit unwell. Hard to type. 01:02:06, 2012-11-17
FYI: Need to find more folks who actually like the "Trial By Fire" Naga Chilli Vodka I bought 01:13:23, 2012-11-17

The Nokia backup file is a 616Mb pigs ear. But the user contacts are at the top in vCard 2.1 format. 01:16:58, 2012-11-16
Asside from that the only human-readible bits are the vast OS java files it's included as part of the backup "settings". 01:21:31, 2012-11-16
Discovered "NBUreader". Already see why there may be issues. One text message is reporting as 32102 Bytes. The rest under 900. 01:26:33, 2012-11-16
It looks like corruption in the database. Basically. NBU reader's GPL licensed, but no visible source files. Still, may be able to work with 01:28:46, 2012-11-16
Okay, it's a Symbian database. that's getting somewhere. And it can be parsed. 01:34:45, 2012-11-16
@blueybirdy In case they haven't notified again, ebay just told me it's another free-listing weekend 12:55:15, 2012-11-16
@thepandalion But is it as good as the Chai ones? :3 in reply to thepandalion 14:01:18, 2012-11-16
@blueybirdy Aww, what a pile of shit. :( in reply to blueybirdy 14:01:42, 2012-11-16

I barely use my tablet anymore, but it has apparently died from being moved around slightly over several months. 16:01:53, 2012-11-16
It's basically another case of the shitty quality cables Wacom love to use. #DesignedObsolescence 16:02:44, 2012-11-16
I'll try balancing the cable in odd ways, but basically I need to solder on new USB cable. :P 16:03:22, 2012-11-16
Going to try to limit myself to one cup of tea a day & reduce alcohol consumption a lot too. 16:25:04, 2012-11-16
