@miss_cath Cute! in reply to miss_cath #
@rlewallen I think so. That feature has been around forever in internet time, anyway. in reply to rlewallen #
@gnuchris Sad and good at the same time. Sad it gets corporate, good that it nets developers a profit hacking on Linux. in reply to gnuchris #
@gnuchris Awesome! Can't happen soon enough, if you ask me (a great way to keep my Win and Ubuntu installs in sync without violence ) in reply to gnuchris #
@kevinhouchin All you need is love! Love is all you need, not water. in reply to kevinhouchin #
@howardtayler Any game you are better in than her? Any at all? in reply to howardtayler #

@jm Mind if I turn your blog posts on Rails 3 into a neat little book-like package? #

@miss_cath Best kind of get-together. in reply to miss_cath #
@miss_cath Not good, unless you like that sorta thing. in reply to miss_cath #
For once, I'm tired at a sane time. G'night, all. #
@icedsoul Friday is the European release. Maybe the 28th for the UK, but we get it after the Yankees. in reply to icedsoul #

@ianlandsman Use Opera, as it can periodically refresh a site automagically. in reply to ianlandsman #
War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength. Dictionary is Porn. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/01/27/merriam_webster/ #
@LBugnion And they get it all for free. Fanboys are great, aren't they? (It'll be a let down that the tablet won't solve world hunger.) in reply to LBugnion #
@LBugnion Apple hasn't cornered the market on food processors, so it can't solve world hunger. And the press are fanboys, too, in this case. in reply to LBugnion #
@ianlandsman Cheaper than a new F5 key, too. in reply to ianlandsman #
Oh, lovely, something or other broke my PowerShell. :S #
@objo Would be safer to have a doc check that (and your daughter, too). in reply to objo #
Argh. The Ruby 1.9.1 installer messed with PATHEXT, and Windows can't build a proper one. Joy of joys. #

@icedsoul Thanks. I hope it turns out well. in reply to icedsoul #
@lachlanhardy Too little @lachlanhardy for the sake again? in reply to lachlanhardy #
@mWare Maybe ask Erwin if he can run the server for a while. #uf.org in reply to mWare #
Long train trip + video podcasts = empty iPod battery, but hardly felt travel times. #
Job interview went rather well, if anyone cares. Will know in 2 weeks if I have an offer on the table. #
@technoweenie What if I make a really, really good salad? in reply to technoweenie #
@Kle_ http://tinyurl.com/r9oot in reply to Kle_ #
@Kle_ Keine Ursache. in reply to Kle_ #
@jowyang A waiter is a known quantity. A hacked website isn't (or tapped connection to a website). in reply to jowyang #
This is cool: http://windows.kde.org/ is a wonderfully comfortable way to get KDE apps on Windows. #

@miss_cath Great. Today's Good Deed done, then. in reply to miss_cath #
@gnuchris Well, little tricks help a lot already. Like out-of-focus background in a macro shot. in reply to gnuchris #
@gnuchris I'd work on composition first, since that's the most difficult to get a feel for. Then on to colors, to get great shoots. YMMV ofc in reply to gnuchris #
@gnuchris Sure! http://pictures.thimian.com/main.php Mind, I'm a beginner myself, with a broken digicam ATM, too. in reply to gnuchris #
