@JezzabelleNFC Yes a big furry blanket, and an 800Watt halogen heater. :) in reply to JezzabelleNFC 03:34:45, 2010-10-16
@TaniDaReal If you have the HD space try FLAC. Less supported, but *lossless* compression, so can convert to other formats as needed. in reply to TaniDaReal 15:41:47, 2010-10-16
New blog post: Livestreaming now http://www.sci-fi-fox.com/?p=435 19:22:14, 2010-10-16

Livestreaming now

Streaming from the workshop for a couple of hours.

I’ll be livestreaming from the workshop for a bit tonight. A bit of tinkering followed by some casting to catch-up with current orders a bit. I expect to be streaming for about 2 hours, or a bit more.

I’ll also be on Skype if you want to come on and chat, but just one at a time. I know Skype while livestreaming now works but I haven’t endurance-tested it yet. You can contact me on Skype under “scistarborne”.

Embedded video is below, or click the link under that to watch directly at Livestream.

Been another fail day. Nothing done except changing my bedsheets. At least the bed will feel a bit nicer. 02:36:17, 2010-10-15
Been reading quotes from Charles Manson and other cult leaders. Interesting stuff. A public language of direct behaviour influence. Bed now. 03:44:48, 2010-10-15
I'm totally hopped up on sugar and coffee and other comfort foods. I think I'm having that Rapture thing. 23:18:48, 2010-10-15

In the hour I've spent trying to send a message to the admin thru tonne of broken html & PHP, have ended up finding track pirated on a blog. 02:44:15, 2010-10-14
@AdriOfTheDead Because they always figure out you're not really from the FBI in the end. in reply to AdriOfTheDead 02:46:10, 2010-10-14
Oh wait, it's working now! 139Mb download. PHP script breaks the link so won't download in Orbit. Hope the DL doesn't get interrupted then! 02:50:49, 2010-10-14
@AdriOfTheDead Maybe an Evil Egg got to it..? http://caramel-kitteh.deviantart.com/art/Origins-of-an-Egg-78568739 in reply to AdriOfTheDead 03:26:00, 2010-10-14
Nothing back from Freegle yet. One small freezer spotted. Need bigger tho. One on ebay for a tenner, good cond but 12yo. Suitable. 15:46:58, 2010-10-14
Sticky-back plastic for my RBW outfit has arrived! Except the sample sizes AREN'T sticky-back. Would have been good to know before buying!! 16:57:16, 2010-10-14
Bid on the ebay freezer. 1 week to go, can collect immediately. 16:58:35, 2010-10-14
@rbwcon Just saw footage from an electronics con. Had venue maps printed on the back of the badges. Seemed like a good idea! 18:04:54, 2010-10-14
Feeling very off today. Shivering and shaking. 18:36:59, 2010-10-14
@ShemaLioness No, it's anxiety again.. in reply to ShemaLioness 18:52:33, 2010-10-14
@ShemaLioness Not that are working very well right now. :/ in reply to ShemaLioness 19:18:04, 2010-10-14
@kitsunesoftware It probably has a "low" setting they used for the benchmark under optimum conditions. in reply to kitsunesoftware 20:08:36, 2010-10-14
When there's no more room in the workshop, the projects will walk the bedroom. #zombies #projects 21:54:41, 2010-10-14
@AdriOfTheDead It's your phantom tail syndrome. One of usssssss.. in reply to AdriOfTheDead 21:55:14, 2010-10-14
Bedroom is a mess. Yet have moved turbomolecular pump up here. May try making antiprotons. #scienceitworksbitches 21:56:31, 2010-10-14
"Hey, let's name the event after this acronym I heard, that'll get it extra attention. No it doesn't matter what it already means, does it?" 21:59:07, 2010-10-14
@song_in_heart That's a very big hat. *hugs* in reply to song_in_heart 22:21:50, 2010-10-14

The meet on sat topped up my socialisation levels, so have been keeping to myself since. Trying to push myself to keep it up instead now. 01:27:41, 2010-10-13
Holy shit. Service train just went past the back of the house trailing showers of sparks! o_o; 02:05:02, 2010-10-13
Hope that means they're grinding the rail-tops or something. Never seen that before. 02:06:46, 2010-10-13
Lesson to self: Keep your camera where you can find it at all times. 02:07:15, 2010-10-13
"Futile 98" mix only available on US release of VAC's "Fun With Knives album. As such is also missing from Amazons mp3 sale list. 03:24:07, 2010-10-13
It's the only tune I want & it's been made specifically unavailable. Hunting US ebay for 10yr/o CDs that will ship to UK. 03:25:20, 2010-10-13
And all ebay listings using Amazon's broken track listing that says it has 66 tracks. All past 11 are "unknown". Ugh. 03:26:39, 2010-10-13
Want to buy track from band, but can't. So got to get 2nd-hand. Can only think with DRM it'll be worse in future. 03:27:45, 2010-10-13
STOP LIKING ANY NEW MUSIC. Soon if you miss getting a copy at the time, you'll never be able to again. Save your frustration. 03:29:43, 2010-10-13
The Clangers communicated by nuclear magnetic resonance. Thankyou wikipedia. 12:09:39, 2010-10-13
