@tajasel Seconded. Boobs are most awesome. in reply to tajasel 00:12:08, 2011-11-23
Time to head back indoors. Fingers crossed for the heated cabinet overnight. 00:15:48, 2011-11-23

I think the biggest deterrent to immortality would be having to deal with people younger than you. 00:35:59, 2011-11-23
Also, that Adicto brownie? Back of the packet there's a sachet of chocolate sauce! Someone go back in time and tell me before I eat half! 00:38:59, 2011-11-23
@sevenhelz I think immortals would be pretty much doomed to their own circles & influencing the world secretly. in reply to sevenhelz 00:40:29, 2011-11-23
@sevenhelz Biggest heartache in the world is talking to someone who refuses to believe anyone's been through the same thing before. in reply to sevenhelz 00:41:27, 2011-11-23
@sevenhelz Does tie in rather coincidentally. Or does it? ¬_¬ in reply to sevenhelz 00:42:06, 2011-11-23
@zedshaw Wearable computers with continual image/situation analysis? in reply to zedshaw 02:22:18, 2011-11-23
@zedshaw I'm not an expert so it's unusual layout is making it hard to me to perceive the scale compared to regular processors. :/ in reply to zedshaw 03:16:02, 2011-11-23
@Albrecht_Fur @mothdust Ooooh, gonna be following that now! :D in reply to Albrecht_Fur 12:58:46, 2011-11-23
@zedshaw Replies from Hackspace mailing list suggest same speed. Sounds like architecture would mean starting from scratch on ANY program. in reply to zedshaw 13:39:14, 2011-11-23

@JezzKitty That is maddness! D: in reply to JezzKitty 15:13:39, 2011-11-23
Can't find anywhere that tells me what the sensor size is on a Microsoft Lifecam VX-1000. Hoping it's 1/2". 19:35:23, 2011-11-23
Workshop machine BOSD, followed shortly by my guts doing the same thing. Ugh. :P 21:29:04, 2011-11-23

@ShanieTX oooh, why are you and he off to Germany? :3 in reply to ShanieTX 14:39:19, 2011-11-22

Rigged the old froststat to the storage heater. Hoping it won't have too much latency. Running tests now. 18:48:06, 2011-11-22
Does anyone know a shop that actually sells the *500g* jars of beef Bovril?? I can find one online shop. With postage it'd be a tenner! 19:03:09, 2011-11-22
Okay, cabinet temp peaked at about 24.1c. Might fall as far as 17 with it triggering at 18. Froststat is a high latency device. 20:31:23, 2011-11-22
Still it works, so better than nothing! Will keep the resins from going off prematurely. 20:32:11, 2011-11-22
Bought some choc-nut brownie from the Turkish Food Centre. It's brand name is "Adicto" #amused 20:33:15, 2011-11-22
@MrCullen I try to get bank transfer these days, but I should figure google checkout out soon anyway. Also I use reference numbers for ref. in reply to MrCullen 21:10:06, 2011-11-22
#Google search becoming increasingly useless to me. This new correction feature doesn't let me search for what I ACTUALLY typed. 21:12:00, 2011-11-22
@julesmattsson Can't search for info on that. Google keeps "auto-correcting" the search term. in reply to julesmattsson 21:13:11, 2011-11-22
@julesmattsson Googles first result for "CR L-agent" gas is "Agent Provocateur Perfume" #ironic? #tahrir in reply to julesmattsson 21:14:58, 2011-11-22
@ladyuhuru @julesmattsson has suggested it may be CR gas, not modern tear-gas. in reply to ladyuhuru 21:59:08, 2011-11-22
Relaxing by stripping some junk for parts. 22:47:00, 2011-11-22
Touchpad, 128×128 LCD, odd comms module, Vista licence key, small speakers, laptop screws, 1.6Ghz mobile CPU.. 22:47:56, 2011-11-22

Top bit of this 2.27Kg whey-powder container fits the contours of my head very well. Will cut up to make prototype base for #MechaEars. 23:59:45, 2011-11-22

I seem to have fallen foul of a rare memory issue with Paint Tool SAI. Program is now non-responsive. Good thing I saved recently. 00:02:22, 2011-11-21
File saved when tried to exit without saving. Phew. Have roughed out a background I'm happy with. 00:17:13, 2011-11-21
SAI file is 170Mb currently. 21 layers. 00:20:12, 2011-11-21
Expanding the canvas to 120% vertically may not be best for memory, but it frames the image so much nicer. 00:28:47, 2011-11-21
Huh. I don't remember downloading all these pictures of boobs. They're not even in the boobs folder. 01:18:47, 2011-11-21
Oh wait, one's holding up a /b/ sign. These are from the night I visited the chans. 01:20:01, 2011-11-21
Folder may also contain pics of a cat on a Roomba. 01:21:47, 2011-11-21
@PliskinCat I hope you're recovery's swift man. You're one of the good guys. :) in reply to PliskinCat 14:23:04, 2011-11-21
@Alfa_fox the useful statistic is that the UK has a population density approximately 33 times that of the USA. in reply to Alfa_fox 18:35:57, 2011-11-21
@Alfa_fox I suggest that one because it sounds like the person you're arguing with is well acquainted with density. in reply to Alfa_fox 18:36:48, 2011-11-21
@jonty Robot chorus; "Share and enjoy..!" ? in reply to jonty 19:00:20, 2011-11-21
Paint Tool SAI is not happy with me. Most operations are now giving me Out Of Memory errors. 21:17:30, 2011-11-21
Shifting some folders about to make working room. Also notice SAI max advised canvas is 5800×5800. Current pic is a few thousand more. 21:28:51, 2011-11-21
Kinda miffed Steam can't recognise changing storage drive from being on a totally different computer, but that's that fixed. 22:51:23, 2011-11-21
SAI's swap disk is 50Gb clearer now. Might help a bit. Back to work! 22:54:39, 2011-11-21

Wow. The Fortnum & Mason protesters have been found GUILTY because the judge said PROTEST IS POTENTIALLY INTIMIDATING. 01:19:08, 2011-11-20

@sevenhelz The mental image of you belly dancing broke my brain. In a good way. o_o in reply to sevenhelz 21:42:12, 2011-11-20
I feel relaxed, in good spirits and a little frisky. Much coffee, wine and cheese has been imbibed. 21:48:17, 2011-11-20
Might be able to get more of that redstone if you put slabs down beside them to (@YouTube http://t.co/VTLJWp87) 22:16:42, 2011-11-20
Uhoh. System free RAM at 0%. Time to shut down any unessesary programs. This pic has a lot of layers. 23:51:21, 2011-11-20

You know, I really don't want to go to the LF winter party. Just there's a couple of folk going I don't see often. 00:05:53, 2011-11-19
But I never get to catch up with them as these things anyway. Plus I'm scraping pennies together as it is. 00:06:38, 2011-11-19
Episode #95, 2.3% of the way.. so should hit the FarLands around episode.. #278 (@YouTube http://t.co/nh7ax5iU) 01:17:24, 2011-11-19
.. and 2Gb at 2.3% should mean the world file will be about 86Gb when you hit t (@YouTube http://t.co/nh7ax5iU) 01:22:11, 2011-11-19
@sevenhelz Oh? What's he done? in reply to sevenhelz 01:44:00, 2011-11-19
Any paw-makers currently open for commissions? Got someone in the USA who was mis-directed to me, looking for some. 01:51:05, 2011-11-19
@sevenhelz Ugh, missed that one D: in reply to sevenhelz 01:58:18, 2011-11-19
@sevenhelz I'm all for using comedy to defuse taboo subjects & open them to discussion, but that is just rather uncomfortable to hear. in reply to sevenhelz 02:06:25, 2011-11-19
@sevenhelz Odd that I'd be ok with if he was making a joke about himself *actually* being raped. That would be coping/diffusing/overcoming.. in reply to sevenhelz 02:09:41, 2011-11-19
@sevenhelz ..but being used as a "wouldn't it be funny if" is undermining the severity. Very poor taste. in reply to sevenhelz 02:10:58, 2011-11-19
Having some hot chocolate before bed.. 02:12:16, 2011-11-19
WOW, that's an impressively cool looking cat! http://t.co/NRO4nhNO 02:14:29, 2011-11-19
Illuminating markings like that is also a wonderful idea..! 02:15:02, 2011-11-19

@PennyRed That's a very polite "losing your shit" though. Also Richard Sharp appears to have stolen John Waters eyes. in reply to PennyRed 15:25:32, 2011-11-19
We still have two small cats that need re-homing. We REALLY can't afford to keep them! :( 17:33:30, 2011-11-19
