From Twitter 08-26-2010



@deanupton I have ubuntu on mine -- for now just for webcam streaming (kbd mouse) , but in general the UI isn't very touch friendly IMO
@michelledh The N900 (I have one) is *very* diff to the iphone - opposite end of spectrum.. I like it though, but takes more effort
@Amy_Walker Like the view! Enjoy the photowalk
great. got nasty headache. not good. but sister-in-law+kids etc round today so must go to office for peace/quiet!
after a day with firefox I'm back to chrome again. Keep getting drawn back. Works, slicker, simpler,cleaner
@nnubeh Yes I think that is more professional...
@OzoneVibe @amy_walker Sad, but "Juke" to me is http://bit.ly/dgoQkA
@Amy_Walker How was the photowalk last night. Not been to Newcastle but always enjoy walking around cities #solucky
Interesting. Received a work email being invitied to play a game - flash, pickup points, don't crash kind of thing. Nah. get bored 2 easily
Strange, work email and coffee is helping the headache to go away. think down to 50% now. ..
@Jodie_kemp Don't feel pressured ignore? Though I have many work colleagues. fb offers some control, but wouldn't trust it entirely
@OzoneVibe @Jodie_kemp How about signing up to "LinkedIn" and using that for professional/work related contacts?
been a peaceful morning to work so far, but others in house getting up/visitors soon so get-me-out-of-here, am off to the office!
@charlesarthur Well a "nas" is more than a "drive" so may be running http for example - so that's at least one mechanism...
@ChrisHatch pet insurance?
Is this what we're becoming? Spot the #cylon -> http://bit.ly/aovFSy
@Jodie_kemp I guess if presence on social networks is expected as part of working in an industry then it's reasonable to (as someone else ->
@Jodie_kemp <- suggested create a seperate persona & interact on a professional level). I don't tho - just use one and happy to get friended
@oldmanuk @andypiper yes no UK is frustrating. I espect charging/.interconnect differences a factor
@OviJade Loved the tag line "it's not the technology, it's what you do with it" - Absolutely. Shame there's not more focus on "apps"
@OviJade I think that's captured hearts/minds of many. Most other capabilities already covered on android/iphone (though nav is online)
@Cadrieu @det66 with you on that one. After the entire American state is about benefitting from cultural diversity. should be approved IMO.
@OzoneVibe @Amy_Walker <Big sigh>
@macie_sherwood I know many swear by their macbooks, especially in creative field, though both my kids have been v. happy with their dell ->
@macie_sherwood studio laptops -- good deals from "dell outlet" (returns usually, prices highly variable)
@macie_sherwood photo-editing (ie lightroom) can be heavy on cpu+disk+ram
RT @emmastonier: less than 24 hours until FP1 at Spa....it's been a long four weeks #F1
@OzoneVibe I have work tomorrow so will be catching up with FP1/2 later :-( but really looking forward to good quali/race (rain...?)
RT @sarahholtf1: Thanks for your tweets about the prospects for the weekend. Most of you say you want a wet race. Chance of Sunday rain ...
RT @autosportlive: The heavy rain at Spa has eased off but there is much more to come! Read our forecast for the #F1 race weekend here - ...
@OzoneVibe looking like chance/showers for race. Changing weather should add excitement (don't want a washout) #f1
My gosh. This has been out a while. Wish 3UK+N900 could deliver me this capability -> http://bit.ly/aWvxby
@macie_sherwood not sure how important/serious photos are, but I'd recommend always having copies in 2 places. could be 2 ext drivers, or
@macie_sherwood laptop+external, or making use of a "service" that offers internet backup for £xxx per month
@macie_sherwood On dell. worth looking on site for kind of spec you want then keep an eye on dell outlet for specials
@davenice I can't believe I didn't know about it! Apparently in UK, Orange (definately) and T-Mobile (I think) actively support it
@davenice but handset support is limited. Vodafone have a femtocell instead. O2 & three have NOTHING IN THIS SPACE.
@macie_sherwood WOrth checking for cashback offers too ie http://bit.ly/cbbpMk
@davenice The internet/3G handover looks very neat. That would SO PERFECTLY fix my home/office coverage issues.
@AARRGG cannot figure out why one of my vmware esxi guests is not working for inbound traffic. It should...Annoyed.
@nnubeh if someone lights the bbq to melt them on ;-)
final straw. rebooting esxi. then off home.
@nnubeh you are kidding. Get it nice and brown but not catching fire! yumm.
Silly Windows XP. Right last thing done. time to head home
oh err. Summer is leaving us nhow. Just looked out of office window and think I'll be driving home in dark. #wherehassummergone
@howardlucas ha ha very funny. I get it.
@howardlucas quite a few now.
@littlelawyer84 It does seem far too tricky in some - air filters, batteries in way. Though my focus is still on originals (after 10 yrs)
@littlelawyer84 I recently had to fix my espresso machine (gaggia). Delight that thing was just built to be serviceable.
@chrispepin can you quantify? what's latency/throughput like. No 4G in UK yet tho - expect a few years before LTE.
@chrispepin even now in UK some nets (vodafone, O2 in particular, others better ) struggle with broad 3G coverage outside towns/cities
@chrispepin Actually 3Uk is up around 94% population, Orange 93% ish, Tmob not sure. Voda/O2 are down around 80%+. Those top 3 are ->
@chrispepin merging their radio access layer (effectively) so will only go fair bit higher. I've been using 3G since 2003
@chrispepin Ouch The 4 Mbps down is nice (don't think I've seen much above 2 in my 3G area) but have > 1Mbps up latency 80ms
@littlelawyer84 a bulb went in our microwave (panasonic)., Turns out replacement is virtually an entire, complex dismantle and need to take
@littlelawyer84 care due to big capacitors/shock risk so not really cost effective. That design REALLY bugs me.
@Petronella @SarahAnnGreen Stop the dominos talk. makes me depressed as I pull 2 supermarket pizzas from freezer. Dominos=yummy
@littlelawyer84 so it will be the classic £10/bulb part, £60 labour? Actually at least ford tends not to be too pricey for service
@littlelawyer84 definately bulb not fuse? just a thought. Am sure it is...
@littlelawyer84 Aren't they often on different circuits. 95% chance it's the bulb, just thinking worth checking in manual as fuse accessible
@littlelawyer84 couldn't resist sorry -->. As a lawyer-type person did you read rule #5 on dealsplus? ;-) Seen many do it tho so not alone!
@littlelawyer84 US/canada residents only (like many of their prize draws :-( )
Dog whelping box assembled, with fleeze lining, warmer pad for puppies etc. Getting scary....
Tried my #giffgaff preactivated SIM to see if home coverage better than 3. Err no, 3 and orange get 3g in a few rooms. O2 gets 2G in less
shame about the #giffgaff coverage. I like the community participation idea, but reviewing coverage it's not a step up. :-(
watching the great british waste menu...
@vixisabel similar here -- 2 had text, 2 didn't - and only one had properly formatted text. Think tech difficulties....
@Tim_Meakins seen lots of that now.
@Amy_Walker ha. late in cinema last night, little tv tonight, have stayed away. f1 this w/end but must finish NYC photos. lots of work!
@Amy_Walker sounds like a bit of competition going on there! Bit of peer (and self) pressure... ;-)
