From Twitter 04-27-2011



remembered it. That took a few minutes. Damn. always happens...
trying to organize a conf call with US west coast/UK/india. I give up... *its too hard*
"check if all required can attend" / "in next 30 days". Computer says "There are no times". Aarrrggghhh
Always something wrong. Currently VPN going painfully slow. Need to check if BB or not.
Oh sigh. the media.. RT @vixisabel: Well, it is their wedding... RT @SkyNews: Royal Couple May Attend Wedding Rehearsal http://bit.ly/fiCUGn
So internet fine, and different VPN on another machine fine.
Yep proven on two machines, looks like AT&T VPN is choking. Alternate VPN fine, machines fine, local net/internet all fine > 30 Mbps

@vodafoneuk any plans to improve coverage in so53 2gh/2lg . Small town centre pop 20k but coverage really Poor esp in businesses. @Xplan ...
@vodafoneuk sig marginal. Just about can get sms thru. Sustained call/data session not viable @xplane0202
@BTCare as per the forum thread. Gigabit connectivity issues to the GBe port on HH3. Admittedly a little academic but have plenty gige stuff
Popped out for a hair chop before shops shut.... Was getting pretty bad
@scottywotsits feeling hungry. Lamb=fav (tho that was roast of choice at weekend)
@scottywotsits Am sure it will be lovely tho we have another fav here fajitas...

Further confirmation that the 300Gb usage limit on #btinfinity option 2 (unlimited) is now removed http://j.mp/lZw1Wp
@xplane0202 what?
RT @Casholini: Rather sheepish 5news producer just came to our live spot to ask @MishalHusainBBC if his presenter could borrow her makeu ...
wondering what's been happening today - busy. Heard about lotus/caterham, that's about it.
In using #chromedeck for last few days, I am finding it lock-up for 30s-60s from time to time & loop CPU... anyone else?
@_pocketdynamo how's the pride/embarrasment level. Perhaps you should have drunk it there...
@scottywotsits nice - definately feeling hungry now. I take it mind sauce or redcurrent jelly too? Has to be done!
thought my leg was itchy. that would be the 4 (shallow) gouges across it thanks to the woodland brambles. (delayed) OUCH!
Ok no big deal, but strange the way you cut yourself and don't realise for a while THEN it starts hurting

@Kateroon Nice to have a break like that! (working here.. though just been out for a dog walk)
@EmLah first thing is to check vents look clear - maybe try sucking with a hoover. It's poss fan may have failed or be full of dust
@EmLah you could change settings to slow CPU but that's only a temp measure. Does it just go straight off - no BSOD. If so yep prob temp
@EmLah Use it on a service that conducts heat too (ie not on duvet in bed etc)
I see we have an all-hands meeting on friday. more like all-except-the-brits-and-other-international-wedding-fans-hans meeting ;-)
@vixisabel ikea would be proud (though I guess theirs is often with chips). Seriously though homemade meatballs=very scrummy
#chromdeck must have a leak. after all day lockups getting longer and more frequent (like every few mins now)
RT @eileenb: Putting my new intro to Twitter course 'ON' twitter http://bit.ly/fACCZ7 & hope you'll use other ways to tell folks about i ...
@VodafoneUK nothing showing - 3G upgrade not far away but issue in (teeny) town (center) - supermarkets/shops/business is NO SIGNAL :-(
@_pocketdynamo actually now I think about it, that probably would have been worse...
@NeilBaileyF1 a friend of mine managed to slip getting off the train - very nasty broken wrist...
@macie_sherwood really -- oops. over optimistic bbq?
@honeybee85 somehow I doubt you're the only one. Should be an opportunity to get more done but no doubt all that socializing to think about
@F1_Girl I had that a year or two back. Whilst I had to fork out for excess on the upside I got a nice clean unscratched screen!
@slackbladd3r everything ok?
@sxa555 indeed. it does get maddening. And the flashing disk light
@miss_vix a bit odd, what was wrong with other one - I mean anything can be forged so.. but trump involved? Not seen news. troublemakers
RT @vixisabel: Sexy!! RT @nommer: Oh I've spoiled my dinner by eating half a packet of fizzy laces. I'm also frothing at the mouth slightly.
@RachEdwardsF1 why not use the petrolprices web site - you pop in postcode, job done. free to sign up, get email notify.
@vixisabel EXACTLY! Had this issue with EON yesterday. MBNA b4 They have to prove WHO THEY ARE too! Cant ask for user/pass! @Halifax_Online
@jodyeric thx. Still not found perfect client :-(
@OzoneVibe oh we've found a wormhole to 2007 !
@eileenb well it's probably better than 666 minutes - otherwise it would be time to get worried ;-)
@SlyRenard @vixisabel I've only been there once, but loved walking brooklyn bridge towards NYC. Ellis island/liberty brilliant (museums) .
@vixisabel central park - 1 time walking, 1 time cycling. Trump tower, empire state, rockafella centre (double/twilight visit) @SlyRenard
@vixisabel @SlyRenard your chat has reminded me I really want to go back. Fly out/back on QM2 I think :-)
@NeilBaileyF1 breaking news seems to have morphed into "top news item".. been like that for ages now
@vixisabel tough. I've never been to copenhagen so I'd choose that but sure both lovely #holidaydecisions
@SlyRenard no idea on availability etc but what area. always a maybe #F1 #hampshireF1
@kayels ah the mythical o2 coverage map. Seemed the most "optimistic" of any net around here. full 3G apparently. truth lucky 1 bar gsm top
@vixisabel quite like cruises, and living few miles from southampton makes it rather convenient
my key isn't working properly. tricky isn't it. any guesses which one?I hve no ide
@vixisabel off on Queen elizabeth (just a few days) in late May :-) tho not been on QM2.
@vixisabel 5 nights just amsterdam (*2), zeebrugge (for brugge), le havre (going to honfleur). Then ventura/west med in Aug.
@sxa555 to be fir its intermittent. shift playing up too, and s -- the lhs of the keyboard looks a bit dodgy
@vixisabel only done longer/warmer ones before -- this one's a sneaky extra
@kayels certainly none perfect and often very localized issues, but from checking locally the o2 one by far is the most unrealistic1
@kayels tmob/orange merge & joint venture with 3 for the radio access network so overall should be best, tho no 900 Mhz (better propogation)
busy "sorting stuff" tonight. Now free for an hours tv b4 bed I think
change of plan. worn out. sleep instead methinks.. want to have a good effective work day, exercise session tomoz, then party on Friday!
Hoya HD CPL arrived today. went the extra mile to reduce light loss on the Tamon 18-270 pzd - already slow, but cpl needed for sun/sky
can't believe not been out fr a decent photowalk with new lens -- been so busy...
@NeilBaileyF1 yep!
@kayels I really liked @ThreeUK when with them. fast data, lots of 3G, fun. I just moved (sadly) due to home+work (!). elsewhere super...
@F1_Girl dropped brick? clumsy or giving yo ua message....
@slackbladd3r Ohhheerr I guess good to know what you're dealing with so can be addressed.
@scottywotsits garlic slices always good -- I do same with chicken/turkey/ham etc too - piece skin and push them in :-)
@VodafoneUK sadly no upgrade info suggested there - 3G net speed improv <1km away but that lock is a blackspot. needs filling in ...
@50ftwoman I feel a) bad a did it b) good I mentioned it. like being honest :-)
@kazb711 I was too lazy. I needed to faff around with security & put somewhere - email was the wrong lazy thing to do
@NeilBaileyF1 ever seen a launch in person? We saw (I think) STS-111 from the nasa causeway (6 miles away - closest public viewing)
@NeilBaileyF1 fantastic. I must pull out old photos (film) video (digital). Remember the total vibration (not sound) watching firecracker
@Unicorn36 I have this vision you'd get more dangerous if anyone dared take any of that easter egg?
@NeilBaileyF1 just amazing.
@hunni_h not all bad. time to chill with friends perhaps.
@_pocketdynamo I've paid little attention, but hopefully everyone will chill a bit and they'll be happy. thats fine by me
@lau_amyf1 EXACTLY! I dislike *any* disruption. (except twitter). ok with other "sensitive" fams that know the rules #pleaseshutupif
@lau_amyf1 quite enjoyed the @BadgerGP event last year for example. Should prob try watching with friends (and beer) more #pleaseshutupif
@sxa555 I take it you'll be ignoring all the wedding faff and heading in to work then ;-)
@sxa555 still not seen anything more appropriate/funny/well done than the #tmobile #royalwedding spoof
@sxa555 usual sunny with showers, possible thunderstorms possibly turning to an ice age moving to a heatwave by saturday I guess
@sxa555 A non #geek suggestion could include "understand women"
It does seem to take a LONG time to switch gas/elec - 6 wk this time around. why so long. only billing etc. should be a week or two tops #fb
@NeilBaileyF1 @jacko2254 That's giving me a very bad taste. Like trumps apprentice progs but this all feels very wrong and underhand.
like the note "add more space for just 4.95 per TB per month" - http://bit.ly/jVnEPJ - now that;s my kind of online storage prices
@mike_griffin_f1 my daighter went #WP7 on Sat (from android). Am very impressed. intriguing for my nxt switch (end 11/early 12)
