Right, looks like I'm a bit low on a couple of things. Maybe enough to squeak through tho. Won't commit to ordering things for a few days. 18:30:53, 2012-02-06
And casting orders come before getting a new soldering station. #priorities #hesayswhileupdatingtwitter 18:33:07, 2012-02-06

Home safe. Bit nippy out. 01:51:41, 2012-02-05
I demand cuddles. Heading to bed either way tho. :P 02:03:18, 2012-02-05
Just received payment for my biggest casting job ever. This is very heartening. :) 23:45:53, 2012-02-05
Good reasons to stick with new habits. 23:46:27, 2012-02-05

Time for a shower.. 11:23:32, 2012-02-04
Noticed the Bulgarian MPs wearing the Guy Fawkes masks are using paper copies of it, not the legitimate for-sale copyright plastic masks. 11:27:05, 2012-02-04
Just saying, it's ironic to protest ACTA by using copyright-infringing masks. 11:28:00, 2012-02-04
Also looks like I've got my biggest casting order ever! 11:29:35, 2012-02-04

Beginning to wonder if the "Red Key" for the Vespa isn't actually the real Red Key, but a clone that's no longer recognised. 01:00:06, 2012-02-03
Anyway, bedtime. Sleep; save me from last-nerve-breaking Furries.. 01:01:19, 2012-02-03

Good thing about Indian telemarketers is they don't go "Nooooooo, y'wouldn't would y-*hangsup* when you tell them you're not interested. 15:52:51, 2012-02-03
Was Armstrong-something. Should have paid more attention. A UK callcenter is breaking the law calling us. We're on the opt-out database. 15:53:47, 2012-02-03
Guy on the phone had a very strong scouse accent. But the same phone database as the Indian telemarketers. Quoted all same wrong details. 15:58:02, 2012-02-03
@Pinkyfennec Still say we need to give him an honorary ban. And a sash. in reply to Pinkyfennec 15:59:00, 2012-02-03
#ACTA protests next Saturday. Sounds good. 20:02:21, 2012-02-03
No Sci, you should not buy a lot of 53 CD drives just to dismantle them for useful parts. When your bank is in the black, maybe. 20:57:57, 2012-02-03
Apparently there's "weird sounds happening across the world", proven by YouTube videos. Pretty sure that sound is an Aeolian-harp recording. 21:52:11, 2012-02-03
It might also be the City 17 sounds from Half Life 2. 21:55:15, 2012-02-03
I favorited a @YouTube video http://t.co/ffdRufOS The Making of an Aeolian Harp 22:09:23, 2012-02-03

I need some people to strap to a big wheel. I want to get a metric for inner-ear balance sensitivity. 22:54:51, 2012-02-03
Basically, what's out detection threshold for angular acceleration? 22:55:10, 2012-02-03

@andyburnhammp He's probably confusing them with "baristas". in reply to andyburnhammp 10:38:35, 2012-02-02
Lots of RTs this morning. Trying not to dwell on being 31 in 8 days. :P 10:56:06, 2012-02-02
Have spent the day with Andy trying to get the Vespa to start. Conclusion: the immobiliser won't detect the RFID key. 19:55:37, 2012-02-02
Solutions; 1) replace pickup coil 2) replace immobiliser (+key & locks) 3) replace CDI with one from a bike that doesn't use an immobiliser. 19:57:53, 2012-02-02
Option 4 is; find a working bike that uses the same CDI, attach a bus-pirate to the serial line and replace the immobiliser with an Arduino. 19:59:26, 2012-02-02
Anyway, now have 1 hour of actual work time left. Any more work on bike will be waiting until Spring. 20:00:12, 2012-02-02
Tomorrow I have a shit-tonne to catch up with and be alert to the end of the UKFur sale. Ugh. 22:13:02, 2012-02-02
