Home again. Feel bad. Like something's been forgotten, or left incomplete. Bah. 00:45:55, 2011-08-24
@dresdencodak Sounds like emergency thermal shutdown. Give it a bit to cool, then see if it turns on. Probably a blocked heatsink. in reply to dresdencodak 00:58:09, 2011-08-24
Ebay guy I'm buying UV glow-powder from is sending me samples of amazing-sounding currently unlisted types to try out. :D 00:59:39, 2011-08-24
I liked a @YouTube video http://t.co/iTImjUo Portal: No Escape 01:13:59, 2011-08-24
Caffeine headache? Maybe. Headache with touch of nausea. Maybe too much Club Mate. 01:18:55, 2011-08-24
Well, Club Mate, cake, coffee.. 01:19:14, 2011-08-24
@dresdencodak Is there a giant laughing skull on the screen? D: in reply to dresdencodak 01:36:14, 2011-08-24
Paracetamol kicking in slowly. Poking the remote KVM switch picked up from the hackspace. 01:55:43, 2011-08-24
Knew it had a Single Board Computer inside it, but was expecting 486 era. Datasheet says P3, 533-1.4Ghz CPU! PC/104 compatible! Wearable! 01:57:14, 2011-08-24
It's got a 32Mb IDE flash drive on it, but supports DiskOnChip (if you can find said chip anywhere). PCI expansion panel too. 01:58:49, 2011-08-24
It's an SBC82620 with a 1Ghz Pentium 3 in it. :D Only one ethernet port, not two listed, but not fussed. :3 02:05:45, 2011-08-24
@dresdencodak YES. At least that's a cheap part! in reply to dresdencodak 02:29:15, 2011-08-24
@AdriOfTheDead OH MY GOD, it's true! Mary Poppins is a TimeLord! D: in reply to AdriOfTheDead 02:30:28, 2011-08-24
This has SO raised the bar for geek marriage proposals. :D(@YouTube http://t.co/OT0f3Aj) 03:15:48, 2011-08-24

Stupid fucking eco-flossers. Gums are bleeding again. This didn't happen with the cheap Morrisons flossers. 12:46:44, 2011-08-24
Welding gas has arrived! :3 Trip to Morrisons, then hopefully tweaking the welder into behaving. 13:27:31, 2011-08-24
Been to the shops, spent a LOT more than expected, but have run out of a lot of things. :( 18:30:38, 2011-08-24
The MIG welder's working again though! Andy gave me some very good hints. Looking forward to welding jobs now. 18:31:37, 2011-08-24
Cool, the two spare projectors work. One needs a clean and the other needs some realignment. 19:40:42, 2011-08-24
@ChaseLioness That looks really cute on you! :D in reply to ChaseLioness 19:41:03, 2011-08-24
@ChaseLioness lol, seriously? in reply to ChaseLioness 19:42:59, 2011-08-24
@ChaseLioness Can't believe it worked so well! in reply to ChaseLioness 19:45:50, 2011-08-24
Okay, two working video projectors. Listed with the proof pics, damage descriptions & full specs, should make outlay back. 19:48:30, 2011-08-24
Doubt I'll make a profit, but I profit in materials/equipment. 19:49:13, 2011-08-24
Cool, I can get a 50" SVGA image on the wall at the end of my bed! Now I just need a very long VGA cable. 20:09:43, 2011-08-24
Okay, projector needs dust cleaning out, but can still do video quite nicely. This plus a radio keyboard? Oh yeah. 20:59:36, 2011-08-24
@JezzKitty It's certainly far better than killing for sport. in reply to JezzKitty 21:19:34, 2011-08-24
