Curious about the sproingies (Q*bert never made it over here), so here’s a demo:

Careful with that BSOD saver in case the Kernel Panic turns out to be a real one. 😛
All the dancing collared cats of Burdekin may now perform cartwheels as the NYT un-subscription succeeded!

Oh! I’ve just about hit the limits of a free player in Eve. Well, with skill training at least. It only takes about a month of skill training to max out the skills available to free players. Not sure about game content yet as I just got out of the tutorial the other day 🙂

Beautiful!

Currently using Firefox but I’ve got Chrome downloaded. I’ll probably get it installed soon as I greatly prefer it 🙂

Bit funny about security so I’ll post it in our private thread 🙂

I wouldn’t exactly say they’re easy to work with but they’re getting better! Having a log-viewer definitely helps as the CLI tools can be a bit…[Read more]

Don’t have a heatgun yet! I’ve read that a hair dryer can double as one if you need it to 😛

I’ve always used the -ise form of words as opposed to -ize myself. Probably comes from growing up with books written by British authors 😛

Yep! The hunt continues! They also now think that time moved differently at the beginning of the Universe!

Great! Never had oxtail before. Closest I’ve had has been lamb neck, which is not at all close 😛

What did you put in it?

Saw this one the other day. It was a riot!

Got Kill Bill on the watch list now, too! 🙂

Fabulous, definitely like some of that over with warm garlic/onion/herb bread to help it down. Groucho’s Note: Beware that too much duck broth means duck breath!
Neighbour is a cattle farmer, so brought over some oxtails, have about just enough for a delicious oxtail soup!

Definitely firing up some project ideas going forward, would a heat gun make a difference?

Over here we prefer to euthanase rather than euthanise!
If there is anything we don’t know about dark matter, Euclid will give it a jolly good go, or die trying!

Been meaning to say that I made duck soup the other week! No Marx Brothers were harmed!

It was very good. It consisted of duck, duck broth, mushrooms, noodles, rice wine, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and chili oil. Incredibly easy!

🙂 Can’t find any dragon heaters, but very interested in a humidifier:

Do you run a browser through Linux/POP? What do you do for security/firewall – put stuff in the hosts file or something else.
Does the H/W logging in Linux provide any other benefits from Windows, are the logs catch-all and easy to analyse?
A UPS is important addition, sudden…[Read more]

Doing some reading, it sounds like a cool gun isn’t a good early project. I’ll go through my electronics books again and see if something stands out.

Would also like to code something, just not sure what. Maybe it’s time to fire up the Arduino that’s been laying around?

XScreensaver deserves a mention! *nix only, though 🙂

Yep! And it never gets old! You can never rewatch the show too many times! 🙂

This is actually the first time I’ve played it. I’ve played similar games in the past, though. Yeah, they seem to charge for a lot of things but we shall see how things go playing for free. Still early in trying it out 🙂

Yeah, game sizes are enormous these days.…[Read more]

Blow some of that rain down here please!
The curtains on Nature’s theatre are never drawn, and everyone gets a front seat, (at least in co-op mode.) 😛
Setting aside the usual temptations, how has Eve evolved since the last time you played it?
That’s three times my monthly data allocation! CODMW is another behemoth.

Weather hasn’t been cooperating 🙁

Been taking it out in the mornings due to the heat but it’s so humid that it’s not much better. I was walking to the store the other day early in the morning and it was so humid that I was drenched by the time I got there

It’s also been raining a lot, making things pretty difficult. Hopefully I’ll be able to…[Read more]

Taken the bike out for a spin recently – or is the weather still uncooperative?
Very dry over here- there was a shower a few weeks ago with a rainbow out the back!

Great!

For tracing the genealogies, the Imperial Library may be helpful 🙂

It should be the same! But I’ll confirm when I get the opportunity! 🙂

Great, thanks! Will give ’em a go soon! 🙂

I’ve been attempting to penetrate the secrets of the Depths lately. There’s not a whole lot to go on but I’m beginning to think they’re the games’ version of the Underworld. We know a long lost civilization mined from them but how they transported the materials to the Surface isn’t explained (yet). The layout directly mirrors the layout of the…[Read more]
