hmm @twitter_status has 9,340 followers, somewhere less than that is the max number of followers you can have apparently

link

#

I haz a headache. DO NOT WANT

link

#

wat, still no IM and pagination? Twitter, I’m so disappointed. I think a 1-day boycott will convey my displeasure in the most effective way!

link

#

I need a tropical-weight suit jacket or sports coat

link

#

Rumours are that the FRA (Swedish NSA) will be scanning voice and text for “suspicious” words during the Iraq conference here

link

One knows one’s arrived when someone posts long, stilting posts about unsubscribing from one’s blog: http://snurl.com/2afen

link

#

heh, the “Hummer more ecofriendly than a Prius” meme still going strong in places. However with gas @ $4/gallon, money talks, bullshit walks

link

#

Sweden is buggered in Eurovision, can’t help but think if Pirelli didn’t look so much like a space alien we’d have done better

link

#

Eurovision: Russia Resurgent. Expect a mini-Olympic charm offensive when they host the competition next year

link

#

I fail to see the appeal of a skinny Russian dude, but obviously I’m not a teenage eastern european girl.

link

#

Still no fixed-line internet, why am I not surprised?

link

#

gah Twinings Darjeeling Himalaya is not good tea to start the day with

Bad IRC connectivity on the subway today

link

#

the weather was great this morning, going down to the dank fetid cellar that is my workplace sucked

link

#

I feel a bit bad for not waking Leo for the CL penalties yesterday. Will make it up to him with a can of Coke

link

#

futzing around with different IRC clients

link

#

HydraIRC just ain’t cutting it, irssi is so much cleaner and works “out of the box” in an entirley better way

link

#

emptied car of a lot of crap

link

#

trying pidgin as an IM client

link

#

man the pidgin interface is really ugly for twitter posts. I love gtalk’s presenting

link

#

man this flat grey light is incredibly boring for photography

link

#

Twitter mobile missing “older” links again, trying to throttle utilisation momentarily?

link

#

trying to convince Viking to go to the library… but it’s hard to compete with Reader Rabbit

link

#

went to the library anyway, scored 5 CDs

link

#

Up early to put stuff away before cleaners arrive

link

Gathering of the weirdly dressed feminists, across the aisle

Yay got an LED lamp at store-that-has-everything, BEA. Only 18 LEDs, but should be enough

link

#

hmm doing the ubuntu update dance but no openssl vulnerability fix

link

#

link

#

twhirl is a bit too “busy” a client for me, I think I’ll keep using gtalk as my primary Twitter interface

link

#

wish I had something to code

link

#

the Debian open-ssl fiasco is sure showing some faultlines between the Debian and (Open)BSD cultures

link

#

Premature senility day: forgot to lock front door, missed tram stop… How will this end?

link

#

Forgetfulness could be due to unusually bad night’s sleep

link

#

not looking forward to boring meeting

wondering why the mothership stock is falling after a strong report

link

#

XP SP3 is released… Vista is looking more and more like a Windows ME for a new generation!

link

#

St Eriksplan open again, strong smell of smoke and all trains are delayed
