Giving up booze for Lent is hard a day like this. Guess I’ll burn in Hell then.

South African courtrooms sure are dark and moody. All #pistorius pics look like they’re shot in a pub.

#

Late to work this morning due to minor accident I was involved in. More unread mails than I’ve ever seen. Gonna be One of Those Days(tm)…

Dude who hit the car that hit me was driving a car on his dad’s insurance. Dad was not happy…

It’s anything but irrational RT @dubcroster: “Horror Ikeaum” sb. The irrational fear of going to Ikea.

#

Damn this is one tasty orange.

Minus: dentist’s appointment tomorrow. Plus: more time to put stuff in order for the cleaners. Net: February.

Running a database off a USB disk… it’s slooooooow #work

Familjen bänkar sig framför #melfest, ser fram emot pausunderhållningen som brukar vara bäst

#

Det här var inget bra #melfest

link

#

Det här var tråkigt #melfest

link

#

Är det här ett skämt, eller? #melfest

link

#

Det är ett skämt! #melfest

link

#

Det här var ju heller inte bra! #melfest

Men vafan det här skulle ju vara tävlingen med bra bidrag!

I may have made friends with #tmux #touchwood

#

This truly is the Day of the Russian Dashcam

link

#

With the Pope on board RT @Popehat: Wait, a cruise ship got hit by a meteor now?

link

#

Best part of these dashcam vids are the driver’s total indifference. Flaming cosmic phenomenom in the sky?! Meh. Might slow down a bit.

link

#

If all goes well I’ll have a D700 on extended loan for a while, just in time for trips to Istanbul and Rome

link

#

I hate this time of year.

link

#

I’ve reached the point in my #irssi career when I need a separate config to try stuff out.

link

#

A software training firm just sent me a Valentines offer: “How to woo SQL server using advanced T-SQL, chocolates, and cleaning up for once”

link

#

This is what Twitter is for: following @doctorow slowly freezing to death in an airplane in Newark

link

#

OK, so I’ve converted my irssi and my emacs to #Solarized, what’s the next step in my nerd upgrade path? Github account?

link

#

I wonder why the hashtag #vd hasn’t taken off today ;)

#

I may have solved my #tmux problems, #touchwood

#

In an attempt to appeal to younger people, the next papal election will be televised: “White smoke/Black smoke - YOU DECIDE!”

link

#

OMG new Idle Words entry from @baconmeteor! This day has been upgraded from “meh” to “cool”!

link

#

Dear Universe, please supply me with some motivation. #kthx

#

Testing xfce on this old Ubuntu lappy, it’s pretty pants. The state of Linux GUIs is dire.

link

#

THIS. IS. SEMLOR!!!! #omnomnom

link

#

Spent the day testing out #tmux. Lots of nice features but doesn’t play nice with the version of putty I’m using (puttytray). URLs b0rked

#

Discussed #Lent with some Muslim coworkers. They were unimpressed.

link

#

Great crop of podcasts to start off the week: The RC, Neutral, Skeptoid, HourTime, and The Talk Show.

link

#

TIL it’s not “papal abdication”, simply resignation. Also Benedict IX was a dodgy dude.

link

#

Pope resigns, everyone becomes instant canon law expert. When’s the next election due? I’ll be in Rome early May.

link

#

Old man starts twittering, quits job in disgust #exbenedict

link

#

The Catholic Church should elect Dick Cheney as pope, he’s got lotso miles left in him.

link

#

Next pope, maybe not white, probably not an ex-Nazi #exbenedict

link

#

Which Star Wars character will the next pope resemble? I’m hoping for Mace Windu #exbenedict

#

Stor nyhetsdag, Danny och Molly blir ett par och påven avgår i protest mot detta när han ser nyheten i Eric Saades twitter. #truestory #fb

link

#

Wikipedians are quick to amend articles about the papacy with news of Benedict’s resignation. Impressive.

link

#

Rules for papal election secrecy fail to mention Twitter specifically. LOOPHOLE

#

Embracing my inner geek and testing out another terminal multiplexer

#

What’re the odds I’m listening to @aimeemann and reading Big Lebowski quotes at the same time?! (actually small odds, I listen to her a lot)

#

Dokumentation is really not our strong suit. Guess we’re not alone though. #work

Citerar min farfars kortaste snapsvisa: o/~ Det hängde hästkött på vägga / Det var så färskt att det gnägga! #fb

#

Shit has hit the fan from 3 different directions at once. #work

link

#

I wish I knew the secret behind perfect pancakes :P

link

#

The way this is going, we’ll soon have better authentication for FB and Twitter than for our banks…

link

#

Today’s tip: backup your irssi configuration :P

link

#

Twitter has reset my password? That’s weird.

link

#

According to @paulmutton this breach affects the first 250K users of Twitter

#

Sign you’re at least partly net-savvy: you automatically distrust emails from Twitter, Paypal etc as phishing attempts
