From Twitter 04-26-2011



@jtonline AT&T is working on laptop. just checking lmc on desktop ...
imported opml containing several authenticated feeds into @opera. Pops up unique dialogue for each one (all same user). tedious #fail
Oh but saved some face, once first entered all the other msg boxes disappeared! @opera
all my external feeds are managed in google reader, so #feedreader works great as it syncs with cloud.
For *internal* RSS feeds @opera may be better - more compact display -- still looking for cross-device synchronization of articles/read etc
@antonpiatek @oldmanuk Woohay another one joins the party. As anton said it's *great* - and even 300Gb fup now removed (just p2p restrict)
@oldmanuk was at parents on Sun. We realised they have 1.5 Mbps downstream. Thought slow then realised ours is >20 times faster...
@jtonline BTW just checked LMC on my desktop (europe) and it works fine (as well as AT&T)
time for another coffee .. and observation. Using brita filter kettle. disadvantage - boils much less -- but pays back in less energy waste
@sxa555 Nope it seems @opera sync doesn't touch mail/news/rss - accounts/subs letalone articles/read marks. Big omission imo.
@sxa555 indeed - hit this too. hence for now follow list is huge and lists for subset, but lists don't support streaming ...
RT @saltyF1: if love & happiness grew on trees id bag it up and post it to all my followers to plant share around the world. #twitterlove
@etherealtype @RobFerrari Oh cool - just saw the post. Glad it was only a temporary loss. Now you can be popular again.
@jtonline well you did sound keen ...
Popped out to gym over lunch. Getting out of car whilst its sunny its positively cold compared to earlier in week. Heat Back for friday? ...
Still need to fix/get fixed windscreen wiper before it rains.. Tho is only rear fortunately
Must email #davidlloyd later. Most of the treadmill machines have sw probs of one kind of another. Either program/display/tv/ipod #south ...
Watching the #engadget show. Seems so flat since all the existing crowd left. Boring
@antonpiatek @oldmanuk good theres selection of packages. Mostly downloads/backup/lots of video streaming inc hd. Even got over 30 vpn
@sxa555 @antonpiatek @oldmanuk Only 21cn exchanges get fttc. So basically 19/25. Latter for unlimited (exc p2p peak) imo far better value
@SlyRenard how long does it last?
@sxa555 ah i was answering wrt bt. Guess plusnet varies depending on handover
@SlyRenard wow. R there diff brands? Others any good?
My idea to sit out in the sun working (and feel better/be more productive) is thwarted.LCD panel can't hack it.Should let me spec decent HW
should really figure out how to prevent my external screen becoming default, internal lcd off, when I dock laptop (win 7 x64).
why a discussion thread web page where have to click on each article to display contents - no way to do flat view. UX nightmare (for me)
Noticed google powermeter not updating. #currentcost sw whinging net conn. No good recovery or update of missing data, bit poor really
thinking best option is custom sw -- current google sw is basic - not a service, needs UI, not autostart, no recovery, no temp data ...
@noelrooney still winding us hard workers up then noel ! @lauracowen
just checked my WHS box (had been cpu issues, disabled search) - yep all stable/cool/low cpu. good.
had a call back from EON trying to persuade me to stay. To be fair in a very amenable (yet trying hard) way. bottom line, prices mean BG.
@Soggous YAY! Figured so only bad news now is you can carry on paying murdoch your hard earnt cash @Lord_Sir_A
No more work but on with tidying up and cooking dinner.....
@tkei everyone has their favourites, but they're my favourite "chain" takeaway pizza (tho authentic family italian style best!) #dominos
@shellk1984 it could almost be the iphone5 launch ...
@melissa_RBRx they're starting the police royal wedding street party early?
@kimifan don't let out-of-warranty put you off. Phone/say broken/ask to cancel/will offer to fix free. @Soggous @lord_sir_a
@kimifan they make 20-60 per month from a sub. they don't want to loose that income for a small cost... @Soggous @lord_sir_a
@kimifan see "techie troubles" here http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/utilities/1133805689,83738 - more on mse forum @soggous @lord_sir_a
@tkei maybe just a bad flavour choice. But everyone has their favs (I find #pizzahut generally too plastic tasting & #dominos fresher)
@Gaila88 sounds lovely. good weather for it. Not visited scotland for more years than I can remember. silly really
@SlyRenard have never had lebanese, only looked at menu once, but sounded appealing ..
@noelrooney yay great news!
@melissa_RBRx About time there was more use of technology - barcodes/email codes/text etc. Why physical tickets...
@sxa555 I'd far rather appropriate ads that stupid ads...
@jtonline teehee - when I do that the struggle is finding any more floor space to create a new pile. I really should scan & shred...
RT @vixisabel: Lol. I <3 Harry! RT @Telegraph: Prince Harry: 'If you get off your arse you can achieve anything' http://tgr.ph/fbVv3J
@OzoneVibe tut tut for not trying before (tho equally updates can break...)
@pj_kent top priority being the aircon so that ppl can carry on playing with their iphones in peace?
@racheeroo01
RT @saltyF1: happiness is like a butterfly which when pursued is always beyond grasp but if u sit quietly may alight upon u
@Lord_Sir_A I had some out of warranty repairs and didn't have to agree to extra 12m. Possible though if @kimifan @Soggous
@Lord_Sir_A upgrading ie sky+->skyhd etc (fair enough) @kimifan @Soggous
Just submitted my (small) @London2012 ticket appliction (DO IT NOW!) - Website good, very fast. Surprised #win
Apart from "verified by visa" that is -- had to change securecode/forgot normally use mastercard. That bit took longer than tickets!
@rachelclarkef1 we only went for opening+1 athletics session.Chances low, but better than not applying!
@OzoneVibe This is the pain with windows -- much prefer linux where most stuff uses "repositories" and updates are far far easier/seamless
@melissa_RBRx phones are starting to have "NFC" chips in them (like contactless security passes). that's the future IMO, while b4 everywhere
@sxa555 probably not
@jetlbomb Ah yes I remember you mentioning that before.
@SlyRenard thanks for the info -- always sceptical until heard of 1st hand experience
@SlyRenard (adds to todo list) not sure any lebanese in Southampton. Bournemouth perhaps
@kimifan Just one warning. If sky replace box you'll loose recordings - so get watching! @lord_sir_a
@melissa_RBRx and even worse on those days you feel naked and lost having left phone at home
@jtonline did I hear you complaining about the olympics site earlier? Intrigued as I found it just fine and super quick even at last minute
@kimifan yep a dilemma. Only viable option is to connect up vcr/dvd recorder/pc (if u have suitable) and record @lord_sir_a
@kimifan I'd guess you could probably ahem "find" the season review around if you looked (I haven't) @lord_sir_a
@Kateroon Woohay! sounding good @SparksEllison
@andypiper lol. Mind you it's usually me complaining/breaking things. Was *stunned* it was pretty simple/quick @jtonline
@andypiper actually I quite like opera too. use opera mobile on #n900 browsing & on pc mostly for mail/news/intranet rss @jtonline
No tele watched tonight. Just dinner+olympics discussion. May watch #theevent or #V I think
RT @angryjedi: Sony Finally Speaks on PSN Outage http://t.co/iEjybOR via @gamepro -- Sheez. "Timely response" apparently not in Sony's v ...
@Soggous who does ironing. We rarely do (only smart shirts for any formal meetings/sons work etc). #meetthescruffs
@rachelclarkef1 you could add tiramasu
@debs_70 @saltyf1 not complaining. makes lots of ppl happy, an extra day off & drinks with friends so can't be bad!
@jtonline so many variables? really? compared to...? You tried any software recently.. @andypiper
@Miss_F1 well done!
@saltyF1 been working etc..
@OzoneVibe ie when your cC bill arrives...!
@icicle_halo_ no - we always take stuff in (home made popcorn for example)
@jtonline yep fair comments. I'm on the low side on 1st, and not massive fans so 2nd not a factor meaning no big worries on 3rd ...
@Soggous given the date - olympics? or bigger?
In case you haven't heard -- you have TWO HOURS to get any last minute applications for london olympics 2012 tickets in ... (UK/EU)
Just noticed #tweetdeck reckons I'm in Winchester - well I'm not. Less than 10 miles away perhaps (and less civilized?)
@jtonline that won't take long then
RT @ruskin147: Sony email to 75m PSN users - name,address, DOB, passwords obtained by hacker. Cannot rule out credit card details obtained.
@xplane0202 not exactly -- a request for the lottery made...
@geraintwjones yes indeedy - and the time/hassle, and dog looking after etc.. cross that bridge if/when needed
survived 2 days now using #chromedeck ...
