From Twitter 12-14-2010



watching the high street 1960s program.. how things change!
adverts then so sexist 'the shopper was on HER own' ref supermarkets 1960s
RT @BradBerman: It's Prius payback time. GM & Nissan have delivered electric cars, so they take jabs at Toyota, which ONLY gets 50 mpg. ...
@iMismii I'm on a rolling 1 month (original expired) tho coverage issue is nothing new - never been good. Wsa better up to 1997 with O2 roam
@iMismii didn't leave then (was offered) & put up. 3 network otherwise v. good just not home/work :-( #mustbemad
@pj_kent I'm using more bbc iplayer streaming, demand 5, and sony are now getting ITV/Ch.4 too :-) - hoping o2/sky launch bttc/bt revise fup
@iMismii @mediacat1978 Just seeing 2D at #southampton #imax is well worth it esp #orange wednesday. Seen inception and harry potter.
@iMismii @mediacat1978 Screen takes up entire wall top/bottom/left/right. Stable/clear digital. Sound is 12kW and vibrates seat/so clear
@TashaDragonfly You know I was just re-reading my mentions and didn't even realise the pun I'd written. just natural :-) thks for spotting!
@lookingspiffy You too? They were driving me nutty last few days. Not had any for a few hours. timewasters @spam
@AKinseyFoto ref btbb/flickr - only rsn I asked is BT infinity. ££ and I have an issue with fup, but remains a maybe
@Joyouscomms Matt was superb but remains a maybe to me for album purchase. Rebecca - absolutely now! Cher - intrigued #xfactor
Hear that PS3 is getting ITV player/4OD... should be on Bravia Internet TV (I hope=bluray) soon then too...
Well the latest ones @sxa555 hitting me are about being helped to conceive naturally. I spot a problem, less so for @lookingspiffy @spam
@Megankimbo And so is @Joyouscomms who I met Saturday - interesting hearing about process other than via tv editors @ApprenticeLaura
@sxa555 not had the time to be honest. overall prefer the sony for stable content and use most, whilst samsung has more whacky stuff
@sxa555 the new yahoo tv widgets seem to suggest this, but it aint working for me. It could only be some models?
@sxa555 http://bit.ly/fQ9Lhx though I'd prefer a simple textual stream without widget clutter!
@sxa555 remember AFAIK the samsung players have no A/V sync (for audio correction if no feature in amp)
@pj_kent according to BT they're the same fup. and around +40% more in cost. sky/o2/be are better for adsl, hope they can get fttc sorted
@pj_kent do you use 300Gb+ - that's current FUP. We do lots of streaming tho haven't gone above 200. My beef is the approach if one does
@pj_kent some months (even as total amateur) I can backup 10s of Gb of photos online too - averages 30, but can be more
@iMismii that's the key "enough" signal. Just for text msg is all I'd ask & calls as BB not needed since have wifi, sadly dont get that
@iMismii Yes 3's network is good, fast & exc. tariffs. even better lately. that's what bugs me about leaving- don't want to !
@iMismii My son is of the opinion he never wants to see a "normal" film showing again! #IMAX
@pj_kent just checked my online backup. reporting 500Gb currently (I bet I'm popular). only 1 up, but could get 6-10 with fttc?
@pj_kent on fttc at least if you're going for the "unlimited"=300Gb package it's 10 anyway, so that limit forces you there (consumer)
@pj_kent For ADSL 2+ sure, but only if a shorter line than me - and be dont have fttc yet..
@iMismii nope, and what's more I Orange cov is even worse in both locations. I'm just really unlucky! :-( real shame
@jtonline I think so!
@timdp must admit i dislike protected accounts. dont feel thats the purpose of twitter. use facebook instead?
@ThreeUK I'm sure I'll be back if/when coverage is extended and any contract commitments end
@OzoneVibe first time on ebay. really? cool
Need to get outside ext cable for xmas lighting 20m (OH bought!). Anyone recommend ahything better/cheaper than this http://bit.ly/ebZMNQ ?
@OzoneVibe what is it?
@OzoneVibe wow. Yep didn't think you'd post that!
eek not enough time to finish lunch. meeting. have to have rest at 2 :-(
@OzoneVibe there a lot of stuff i have looked at that sells for more than best price retail too
RT @Darllenn: @realwfee iae coroa!kkk,fica entrando em mejt twitter!
RT @alexisbicknell: #snow starting to fall in central London!
yay. i can eat my lunch now :-)
@AKinseyFoto compared to the cost of camera kit, broadband etc, flickrs $24 pa is less than £2/month. I know every little helps,
@OzoneVibe there is a risk factor!
@OzoneVibe at that price you deserve to give it a very good clean.
Various ppl pointing me to #daily #fail articles. I think not, no point / waste of space. Burnt too many bridges
@SarahAnnGreen oh good. Everyone is finishing so can leave town quiet for when I do mine!
@BT_Infinity Is it now reduced to 4 Mbps? Didn't it used to be 1 Mbps. If so that's a step forward..
@vixisabel ph no you're not ? ;-)
@BT_Infinity thanks for that info. very useful esp since I get about 4-4.5 currently it now at least is no worse :-)
@eco_retro same here. cant believe last was 5 or 6 hours ago. too busy to realise.
@Joyouscomms i would say no....but have refs on website/facebook fan to aid searchability but be yourself in tweets. but only feeling
@Joyouscomms I guess a half way house would be to have a 2nd id, and point to main one in bio with just occasional reminder tweet. messy?
@JayMontano 1080i broadcast on sky hd i think. also iplayer hd is only 720 i think.
@katybairstow @piombo could use same arg for anything then. person or object. so there are no rules. can there be workable well def ones?
@dank_ross must watch. like ellie tho
@vixisabel He's behind you! (widow wanky that is)!
Realising it's time to leave work for the day #mademesmile http://t.co/pTkuLCU
@vixisabel that was an honest typo.... tw' right
@pj_kent you spotted it too. yep!
dogs walked, tea done. And it's already 2030. How does the time go *so* quickly...
Oh now, this is going to be so hard to resist despite my (possibly overkill) concerns over the @BT_Infinity FUP. Umm http://post.ly/1KtqP
@andypiper Must admit #giffgaff sounds very cool. Just wish I had coverage at home so I could join in the fun!
@OzoneVibe main bt infinity site
@OzoneVibe I was hoping for o2/be but it's difficult to resist... #fttc
@MummaBear no! i! do! not! want! to! switch! i! love! chrome! too!

@quirkygeek not just a student thing. sometime quite enjoy the challenge when running out. inspires creativity... and rewarding (mostly?)
@honeybee85 @sxa555 I have power and water guess I'm not popular now...
@sxa555 @honeybee85 :-) Of course I am unlucky for mobile coverage though am liking vodafone now (only net that works here properly)
@sxa555 how long was the outage? guess at least it was after xfactor! (missed xtra?)
@lookingspiffy @suziedre Have you watched "up" ? really enjoyable (and teary) - another pixar film
@lookingspiffy @suziedre Now feeling silly I didn't follow the tweet links - you did ....
@lookingspiffy well I'm rarely teary in movies, but the beginning of up was a real tragedy - definately teary!
@honeybee85 just remember to save some hot water for a shower (and get in the q first). @sxa555
glad I went to bed early last night (for me that's before midnight!). coffee and gym, though can't say I have staceys energy!
think my laptop hard drive only has 2 modes on and off. Most of the time it's on. all of the time. And slow. :-( analysis needed
nothing is fast enough this morning :-(
it's one of those mornings where each thing I try gets blocked for one reason or another. Deep breath time...
timeouts, unavailable, performance issues, excessive IO... only thing keeping me sane is that spotify is working perfectly ;-)
RT @epredator: Tweetups and pants explained http://tinyurl.com/2dj9bgl
Finding a network (vodafone) that has 3G coverage at my home and work inside and out (the only one) #mademesmile http://t.co/pTkuLCU
@iMismii yep
Very cool. Want for xmas! RT @rodet: This is the hottest electric car - a Mercedes SLS :) http://bit.ly/gTvM99
Nice. want here?! RT @Jenna_Ice: Revamping the employee lounge with an Xbox Kinect & a Samsung 46" 3D TV so everyone can play on their break
@vixisabel from past history I can't possibly imagine the answer being not to?
@pj_kent Yes I know, I was having some FUP banter relating to infinity. I have an issue not with level but what happens when hit
Black eyed peas proving to aid effective working! http://www.lastfm.com/user/planetf1
Feeling sad :-( Just called @ThreeUK to get my pac code. may be back some day (need base station near work./home ...)
having fun adding tracks to a collaborative spotify playlist ready for an xmas party :-)

@MorganF1 :-) +1
@OzoneVibe none of the duets tonight were quite up to the special duet with beyonce/alexandra in 2008. That was so unique
I've subscribed to linerlovers's channel on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/user/linerlovers?feature=autoshare
@tpphotography yep, think it was a little over 20 turned up, good chats. exc food, food for talking until 9ish then disco/noisy
Mmm. getting somewhat of a lady gaga mention spam storm. had to block/report 4 or 5 within minutes ...
@etherealtype that's a tricky one I suspect she won't win (so more flexibility), but she's bound to do well
@etherealtype who's your favourite winner from all the shows. Leona's a great singer, but alexandra is now my fav
@sxa555 I did block/report spam within seconds 5 or 6 times from different users, each with just a few tweets
@Texrat I've repaired mine more times than I can remember, but this year current one hit 10 and looked like board fail so bought new #fail
@spam - getting a number (about 7 in 20 mins) of spam mentions about Lady Gaga - known? Have blocked/reported by each is a new user
think we are now close to silly o'clock. hope to get a little lie in tomorrow before famil xmas decoration duty
@macie_sherwood its happened to me before at this time of year - they want to avoid the backlog and ££ asap I guess #sundaysaredaysofrest
FAR better - I'm on http://bit.ly/bSK5ii RT @peteralevy: And if you're on last.fm i'm here, http://bit.ly/bphaDe (it's better than ping!)
@Texrat ah. most I've had to do is motor brushes/pump/elements/seals/limescale
@pixiefish I'd be perfectly happy if daily mail stopped watching/contributing to our common intellect... well they don't anyway
our neighbours efforts with christmas lights/snowman/reindeer - it's like disney #mademesmile http://t.co/pTkuLCU
@noelrooney indeed - its a marketing promotion, but in reasonable taste imo
@AKinseyFoto Do you get a free pro account with BT broadband or something? If so interesting (I pay - amateur but find it useful < £2/month)
@BT_Infinity @redwards78 to jump in. issue is what happens when hit. 30 day=unusable peak. Option to pay say £10/100Gb or similar perhaps?
preparing ahead for 3 hours of #xfactor tonight from 7pm :-) dinner being cooked... wine being opened ;-)
Tired out after afternoon walk! http://pi.pe/-osewhb
RT @anildash: Fascinating first-person account of being in the cockpit of an A380 when an engine explodes: http://2.dashes.com/h0XmnR
reading about the A380 engine failure - one of the pilots notes/photos. amazing. (see last tweet for link)
@Kkirgirl To be correct its 1930-2130 itv then 2130-2245 xtra factor on itv2 #xfactor so actually 3 hrs 15 mins :-)
@StraightLineUK that is spam. block/report #RTHour
@BT_Infinity I notice your tweets don't have any "in-reply-to" links (either web or app) - be great if possible as makes conv easier?
@BT_Infinity Also comment was about what happens when hit limit (specifically on unlim) ie make it a 300Gb package an pay 4 extra 100 etc
@sxa555 I had it from loads of accounts last night. they kept coming. quiet for now...
@sxa555 did also contact @spam - maybe they did some additional filtering?
@sxa555 wow -- must admit I;ve become more of a fan (and no not just because of her outfits) #xfactor
@etherealtype I've managed to avoid! No SCD probably (i take that is where you saw robbie?) ;-) #SCD
@jtonline same as argos then?
And now the #xfactor final. Time to switch to phone and only occasional discrete tweeting!
@etherealtype and more take that ... #xfactor ... at least a song (apparently)
and more. the full works! #tt #robbie #xfactor @etherealtype
music in the adverts. same guests. adverts all flows into one.. the intent i guess #xfactor
we like it here... RT @mike_griffin_f1 Yeo Valley!!!!
@mike_griffin_f1 have had loads esp last night...
fashion tips from ej .. #xfactor
really good perf. #xfactor
can anyone understand stacey? lovely tho she is #xfactor
one direction doing good, but i dont feel it. prefer natalie imbruglia version #xfactor
brilliant rebecca. really liking her voice with dance ish tracks superb #xfactor
rebecca definately my fav performance. really good #xfactor
matt has def done some great performances. who goes? who knows. must be really close. given young/female audience could be rebecca #xfactor
oh dear... time to leave the room... #xfactor
@Alexandra_1608 who do u want to win?
@AdamManning maybe but like many more dancy tracks. i liked it though. eurythmics/lennox oldtuff fan!
@sxa555 sad face... though will her from her in future no question
@honeybee85 oh all you girls are just going weak at the knees with those guys! @sxa555 #xfactor
@Alexandra_1608 think she wont win. too many girls lusting over one direction... #xfactor
rebecca. stay. #xfactor
rebecca is off surely #xfactor
amazing. one direction out. woah. go go go go rebecca. yay yay #xfactor
so did not see that coming @sxa555 #xfactor
@Alexandra_1608 too many closet grown up fans... #xfactor
have thought rebecca and matt would be top 2 from first show (then wavered)
just voted for rebecca #xfactor
@cowelltweets was very surprised 1d left though rebecca is a true star anyway win or not #xfactor
RT @Princess_Beffy: WOAH. That's a shocker. It's because the One Direction fanbase have run out of credit! #xfactor
so a lot will depend on the song.. #xfactor
matt really went for that #xfactor
wasnt that keen on matts winner song.. tho he really has had some v.good pers during the live shows #xfactor
stacey is a lovely nutter #xfactor
not my fav song either. slightly dodgy start got lots better. going to be close #xfactor
@Quayfront scarily i think thats her normal!
show me love - rebecca mentioed to dermot was her favourite. me too. very cool #xfactor
the surprise. here it is. wagner has a wildcard to the final. hes on next.... #xfactor
heston does cover all bases... little chef to waitrose #xfactor
@littlecough and classy
take that again @etherealtype ... ! you cannot escape
is it me or is the itvhd dog extra opaque? used to be more transparent... #xfactor
the competition had lipsync issues here on alex's vocal ... (itv hd via sky) #xfactor main show fine
a new xmas coke ad. not seen that before #soneverwatchads #xfactor

@TimelessP we have one in similar dist but there isnt a lot of flexibility. v. good tho
@lookingspiffy i guess i havent.. also have reencoded old cd collection
@sxa555 true tho am happy with around 256 vbr aac
@_MissAnnie_ if you have in a room with space it is very good though
@sxa555 mp3 or aac. when i last tried some blind tests (long time ago) i reckoned aac / mp4 better
RT @sophiiebailey: Now F1 is finished i used the x-factor to use up my weekends now that's finished what am i ment to do for 90days now?
@sophiiebailey spot on! play kinect games maybe..
bother. just found some puppy damage. cute but naughty
wow. watching xtra and seems matt basically won every week. amazingly mary 2nd first 3 #xfactor
@etherealtype and mary too... thought rebecca 1 some but obv not. yes matt was domimant. so right guy one from that view #xfactor
woohay. konnie and dermot correctly predicted matt would win - beating the judges... #xfactor
if #xfactor is finished and no #f1 for ages... what else will drive manic tweeting...?

@littlecough 'fraid it was quick tonight. xmas dinner appt! hey we're a sociable lot reallty..
@paulbackhouse hopefully then. am off there tomorrow.
lovely xmas dinner tho convinced coke is worse for you than wine/beer (driving) have to remedy tomorrow and let train take the strain!
Escaped from being crawled all over by the dogs.. they're extra cuddly tonight!
@peteralevy thanks for the #ff
@vixisabel trying to preserve family reputation? #fb
@sirsteveyoung is this for home? what raid sys are you using? is ti a drobo?
@Thrinne1 silly Q but have you called? Inside warranty-free? Outside - ask to cancel. they'll offer to fix free soon enough ;-)
@Thrinne1 ah! I see ... 3rd party involved...
@jayegan that';s throughput not sync? ISP restrictions/throttling?
@jayegan bt master socket bad? even in the "test" jack which disconnects extension wiring. if so does sound like BT needed :-(
@jayegan but if it's extension wiring / filter they'll want £££. Having adsl filtered at master is best for noise.
@EmLah we've only seen victorian and war so far. 70s is in sky. others expire on iplayer in next 2 days. If we got 2 watch 1more - 60s?
@jayegan at least if you get noise on voice line it's a voice fault so easy to get bt out rather than tricky broadband/isp problem
@honeybee85 i felt sorry for crofty on last race where his voice was totally disintegrating over weekend. i did 4 days on a demo at @sxa555
@honeybee85 a while back. on last day was talking to cust and suddenly voice stopped. couldnt get word out. doing radio too? @sxa555
@vixisabel i was going to say find another town.. though some things are invariant
@BellaCombs as long as you avoid the rabbit... @f1gossip
@Tuesdaytweetup Seen on the orange rooms website that you can signup for a "keycard" on night (at bar) for 2for1 drinks/25% off food
@OzoneVibe probably get the 1614 from CF, likely train. just looking at bus too as presume it goes up/down avenue
@OzoneVibe @amandagolding i suspect it could get noisy after 8pm anyway, so conversation best before
@amandagolding @OzoneVibe yep. I do prefer train to bus though BUS is hourly to >> 0315 << !
@parboo thanks for the kind offer. Just going to figure out 1st whether to do any shopping (looking) first whilst down there so may go early
@OzoneVibe and no I don't intend to be that late. Suspect much earlier after it gets noisy (b4 11? so prob normal train)
@amandagolding @OzoneVibe 6 of us out for a meal last night. Only small pub but at times could hardly hear across table. some ppl SO noisy
@amandagolding @OzoneVibe and this was a jovial across-the-ages friends/family gathering, just ppl get so noisy in large groups !
@KataHyde Did you visit the Christmas Market by the Cathedral? Very cute and bustling there
@OzoneVibe how many of you went to @amandagolding #TwurryUp ? sorry I missed it. sounded fun
dilemma - off to gym, or xmas decs/lights sorting. family probably wants latter
@LukaSambuca Na Gym wins. will use time to think about tonights cocktails /// Nope I meant xmas present lists ;-)
@LukaSambuca I mean if I do the gym I needn't feel guilty eating/drinking out tonight right #whatsthepoint ?
@LukaSambuca a health binge before xmas. Ummm.. too many parties/meals eek.
@EmpireSteve :-( sorry under the weather. next time.
@Maddie28 8 saw wicked in #nyc at gershwin in april and *loved it*. def a really good musical. would see again!
@LukaSambuca I see your point. Allows for more parties. will not try to compare cal.s earnt at gym with food/drinks later
@popey switching to techie mode to read ;-) did rather make me wonder how many people will be fsck'd tonight. multiboot needed for mornings?
@lookingspiffy am starting to feel a little worried now. 2 week countdown... may take look b4 tweetup tonight! #FalseExcitement
@anghelides that is bad bad bad! #fb
@popey boot live usb/cd? check disk/mount/logs? #ubuntu
Going to miss #xfactor tonight for the #tweetup. Have to watch late - at least get to watch results show tomorrow live...
@Walkerooo Yep should be a good one. #Tweetup #Southampton
@ananyah there's a lot of cher hate. guess marmite. I think she's good, tho trying but will evolve. fav def has to be rebecca 4me #xfactor
@parboo <feels bad> :-( I've decided to head to town shortly to look at xmas presents... so will catch you later but thanks for offer!
@Walkerooo do you have speech reco or are you really using your phone in the bath ' Worried tweets will get wet soon!
@OzoneVibe @Walkerooo And I'm free to eat/drunk tonight after burning off cals at gym ;-) #itdoesntaddup #Tweetup #Southampton
@ananyah I think I could *listen* to rebecca lots, whilst cher would be intriguing to watch and has a way to go.
@epredator it's a lost cause at this time of year... #TwistmasTweetup
@Walkerooo so xmas present for amy should be waterproof floating iphone (?) case ....
sat down to drink coffee before heading out and write a letter (ok long email). Did I, nope. #itsalltwittersfault
@epredator that could be pretty cool and dynamic especially with multiple projectors you could throw things around
going to brave town for an hour or so b4 #tweetup #uselessxmasshopper
every twitter app i've used is somewhat unreliable. esp in how network drop/reconnect is handled. grr.
@tpphotography #southampton #tweetup ...
@popey same here. be it ubunti fedora maemo. just prefer/trust cli more?
not that warm out. decided to leave ski jacket at home. eek. hope summer jacket warm enough later....

@lau_amyf1 just local train (8 miles or so?) to #southampton for one of our regular #tweetup s org.by @tuesdaytweetup . 20-30 ppl?

@linerlovers will be interested to see it. do u have other cruise stuff up there? url?
just realised i mentioned 'ubunti' in earlier tweet. are they little ubuntu boxes? babies? or is it correct plural? @popey

Puppy bed time http://pi.pe/-uzasno
@SlyRenard thanks. i did use some off the shelf stuff months ago. somewhat sceptical tho info sounds compelling.
@racheeroo01 thanks for the #ff
@SuperR0B I dare not use abroad, *though* just noticed vodafone have scheme 25Mb/£2 a day (or £10/month). Sounds useful for twitter fix
@pj_kent I wonder also how many of those are even at uni ? (or shouldn't be?) @vixisabel
@SuperR0B take itm it's not vodafone then
was going to login to #foursquare/gowalla then decided what exactly is the point as its clear i am here.
throat/headachoe. not good. hopefuly caffeine will help...
listening to vince cable on bbc r4 - he's actually standing up to the barrage rather well. clearly v. intelligent man
@geraintwjones know the feeling. a) realtime ac on those dirs kills perf b) defrag c) new ver better d) win 7+ram e) linus more io
def hooked on the taste of vodafone after a few weeks now with constant coverage at home/work. sadly my fav net 3 didnt do home/work
wondering if power saving of not constant network search is more than offset by continual data conn...!
@ananelson that will surely change now though given androids increasing market share, tho fragmentation is a concern raised by some devs
@macarne the thing that bugs me is requiring mac to do dev. assume thats the case? choice by dev fine but shouldnt need to go all apple
@franzseabrook please can everyone finish theirs... then i can think about starting mine...
@macarne true though can legally run windows on mac. cannot legally run osx on pc... #android #meego #symbian all multi platform sdk
started day with sore throat and had the most talking day in long time. all day. wonder if no voice tomorrow/later. still sore...
@sxa555 really? will check so21 now. super if true as seriously about to switch to voda (using payg sim now and cov good) @threeuk
@sxa555 No such joy around here. pretty nothing except within 0.5m of window 2G or 3G :-( Does vary across site. Voda has onsite mast
@sxa555 could ask Orange? @OrangeHelpers
@sxa555 got me excited for a moment. 1 bar 1m away (on old sensitive phone) - but poor audio, drops any more away. not good enough
RT @Tuesdaytweetup: Don't forget! CHANGE OF VENUE FOR SATURDAY's #TwistmasTweetup!!! Now Orange Rooms, 1-2 Vernon Walk, Soton, SO15 2EJ. ...

didn't expect liz to have been fired tonight after such a strong start. Thought stuarts card marked he saved it in BR #apprentice
@davidchow yes that didn't come up in BR, but really didn't seem to go down well.... #theapprentice
@Swordsman_uk Saw HP in imax 2 weeks ago. Fantastic. best so far IMO really helped by the super A/V #IMAX #Tron
RT @vixisabel: RT @guardiantech How the # became the sign of our times http://bit.ly/eV712K #fb
@icicle_halo_ i do remember the name from many years ago but not heard for a while #
Morning!
@darthpelo interested in your comments about the transition. Think will stick with N900 for longer, though android tempting esp with hard kb
@BellaCombs fortunately only new little ones (have 2) were recent pups (kept 1, now ~14 wks)
@rachelclarkef1 @OzoneVibe I get the impression there's more critical mass in London,
@rachelclarkef1 haven't done photo mapping. interesting idea tho more course grained than just recording gps log & merge with photos
@rachelclarkef1 ... when I remember... I do this on my flickr photos.
bbc - article on purchasing particular product & beginnings of panic buy. "urging people not to panic buy". Guess what will happen now.... ?
@david_hay tee hee. I thought I'd omit the commodity - else it's fueling the panic...
@Sulman well the wikileaks action has stopped you from using your credit card anyway so no point!
@david_hay I couldn't possibly comment... but did detect from your tweet that you were driving to a conclusion.
@amanjon we shouldn't be accelerating the panic process, must steer people away from the panic & get back on the road to normality
@amanjon I know.. but I was enjoying the posts ;-)
@amanjon read my previous tweets...
@IamNii_Teiko No my point is that what's relevance is how the device sw/hw together works to help end user perform typical tasks
@IamNii_Teiko I agree about things like CPU *not* being the key issue -- but they're easier to measure... and nokias had some underpowered

Looks like sky HD channel numbers for HD/SD are being swapped in 2011 (ie BBC 1 HD might be on 101). useful! http://bit.ly/f1FT2z

flicked bbc news website on and feeling somewhat uncomfortable at the scenes
so now i know why wife wanted me to take her car. it's broken. diesel xtrail 2.2dCi been bit unreliable. latest is splutter under load (any)
@Sandanista yes it could be causing the 2k restriction but last code check suggested fuel issue. need to check this time prob same
could be sensor or indeed starvation (filter pump etc) debris or eek turbo/boost. much prefer my reliable car (10yr focus)
diesel specialist recommendation around chandlers ford romey eastleigh southampton winchester? better than mail dealer...
annoyed #n900 roams onto any open wifi net inc those protected by login. then apps hang. can disable all but would prefer autoroam list
@O2 am watching. have been for months. trying to resist the bt empire. know many locals talking about switching. lots of business will go bt
@Sandanista should add have had limp mode before... its been more sever and clear cut. this felt like fuel starvation to me..but no expert

@IamNii_Teiko yes you can but not on a per access point basis
@kayels what irks me the most the tiny minority intent on causing violence. they dont deserve any uni place and frankly no loan/payback best
this will be fun. hopefully wont totally conk out on way home
yay. got half way home. will check code when get home.
@Hedgewytch prob from a small bunch of loosers causing grief for the majority?
tired. sore throat. car broke. not got home to even start dinner yet....
home, sadly no ECU code logged. rpm > 2000-2500 =kangeroo. gentle or hard so prob not turbo. sensor or filter maybe ?
@TweetDeck Any news on TD 0.36.2 mentions column not getting refreshed after network down/up -- stream/all works fine. requires TD restart
@OzoneVibe Mmm.. I get it *every time* with 0.36.2 #tweetdeck when I suspend/resume or loose net. Other apps ok, "all friends" timeline ok

From Twitter 12-08-2010



Not great network wise tonight. loads of pauses watching SD prog on iplayer, now a TV sw update is taking an age!. local normal. O2 issues?
Seems like every night either my TV or bluray has either a firmware update or service (apps) update...
Bit poo - firmware upgrade for samsung LED tv - all user settings lost.... reset to factory. Not great UX
even has to rescan channels, set language etc...
Nice to see the samsung led tv update has lost all my account settings too....
The new yahoo widgets/flickr app on the latest samsung TV software is rather nice ...
Sheesh the latest fw update for samsung I think allows onscreen twitter whilst watching TV... exploring ...
@OzoneVibe can't see how to do it. WOnder if my tv doesn't support it. widgets are fine - flickr nice, but can't figure out overlay.
@Shelley__Lee To be precise a Samsung UE46c6620 (samsung 46" led, internet@tv pvr, dvb-t. not 3d)
it feels like 5am, dark/cold/tired... but it isn't, nearly 7 - so time for coffee and then work.......
even the dogs can't be bothered to get up. still curled up in bed.
@Shelley__Lee The most useful apps are VOD/catchup services IMO (iplayer etc). facebook/twitter less so - perhaps ability to overlay a
@Shelley__Lee twitter keyword search for current prog might be interesting, tho not sure works on my model
@Shelley__Lee Also have sony bluray with bravia internet. Less pretty/flexible but IMO works better for streaming services
still feel rather full after chinese meal yesterday. Xmas lunch with current team today :-) #goingtogetsomuchworkdone
@Sweeping_Curves we watched ep.1 (victorian) on iplayer, but showing only 6 days, so we may work back from 70s->60s->war etc
@xplane0202 JIT should speed up performance in general, but will take some disk/ram #cm6. try it? could need reflash but not 2 many apps yet
Anyone getting any O2 bw issues. Had some iplayer streaming probs last night on SD even with 4.5Mbps physical connection (old unlim pkg)
@MickyFin I got burnt by claims of the N96 being more efficient yet for me was slower than N95 8Gb. put me off somewhat...
@MickyFin that's not new though is it? We've had several twin tuner DVB-T small USB devices for a few years (kworld 399U works nicely)
Installing the new chrome app version of #tweetdeck http://bit.ly/emcNJu
hate it when people don't read a clearly written, broken down email and only respond to a teeny (simple) part and ignore rest :-(
"don't know" , please clarify, not my area, try XXX, will get back to you -- all fine, but not acknowledging is annoying
@doclorraine yes, I do if topics are fairly distinct, but here they were closely related - some audience, some history, paras hdng ) B) C)
@doclorraine thanks for the tip tho
@Shelley__Lee There's a lot of info on AVSFORUMS and AVFORUMS too...
enjoying team xmas lunch...
@noelrooney that is going to slow down the tweeting? @lauracowen
enjoyable xmas lunch. good team building day....
@IamNii_Teiko agree but have also been stung by under delivery in past - n96
@Joyouscomms immensely varuable. some take seconds, some minutes some far longer. not usually email per se but discovery around it?
@OzoneVibe now thats a cool idea to make a statemen,t
@lau_amyf1 even down south i feel i may as well have stuck my head in freezer waiting for bus
free bus home much appreciated after an enjoyable lunch. not sure how much work occurred today... (ans. less tangible team discuss kind?)
@IamNii_Teiko agree but challenge is how to quantify the ux characteristics. time to find weather in current loc. to post facebook loc etc
view of @vodafoneuk vs @threeuk *in my area* remains breadth/base capability/inbuilding vs performance/3g for phone have to switch 2 former
RT @GdnCables: MasterCard confirms SecureCode payments system is in trouble – more on Guardian live blog http://t.co/KjoW29D #wikileaks ...
@davidchow what phone. #UMA strikes me as great idea but limited handset support nd only orange?
RT @daraobriain: Tonight is a really, really good episode of The Apprentice, by the way. Let's just say, shit. gets. real. Yeah, you hea ...

serious puppy/mummy dog scrap going on here....
fortunately they know when they're getting told off. quiet now... for mins ...
@littlecough was a bit like that, but after a telling off and stern stare they're now both flaked out....
@littlecough yes ppl do travel a fair way. we got ours 2.5 yrs ago from essex, pups now gone of course to a) east of portsmouth
@littlecough b) bournemouth c) local (0.5 mile away) - so hoping to see them all! And of course we kept the naughtiest monkey of the bunch
@littlecough .... who is also soo cute
Asleep now @littlecough http://pi.pe/-qmd9d5
@davidchow its a good idea but doesn't seem to have taken off. I have wifi cov at home/work but *only* net that works in both is Voda, so
@davidchow it's going to force me to change UMA would address this as primarily issue is inbound sms.
@etherealtype it still has me as 23096 -- the "missing tweets" hasn't hit me so far....
@etherealtype or have I done a lot more than that. if so... eeek! #fail
@andypiper I can believe symbian will start taking over the "featurephone" space more than grab current smartphone mindshare? #bcsagd
@psychemedia the whole ebook thing just seems a mess. drm, formats, resale, vat....
@etherealtype it's quality not quantity ;-)
@etherealtype Just looked at your stream and realise you said exactly the same. didn't copy honest!
@jtonline how about "sorry, but your call cannot even be started let alone completed" #fail #isaconferencecallthatdifficult
@jtonline or how about a little britain "computer says no" #fail #isaconferencecallthatdifficult
@psychemedia cruddy since it shouldn't be about the actual "media" but rather content. I'm ok with DRM in the spirit of current use.
@etherealtype even if mine is 200 x bigger based on tweet numbers #notbigheadedreally ;-)
@TheF1Forum The whole lotus thing is starting to get boring. how about "the team with no name" .... #f1
@jaylimburn Nice idea. sadly another xmss commitment (for which I'm driving :-( ) otherwise I'd be there!
@Lipstedo Arrgh. been there. That's one thing the UK plug design isn't good at preventing :-(
Pretty much deciding to give up on #foursquare and #gowalla - failing to get any value/fun/collab. Am I wrong? (UK)
@OzoneVibe which sector do you think? Could be of interesting shopping wise but not materialised, and I'm now bored ? #foursquare #gowalla
@sirsteveyoung suspect you have a fault with one of the phases -- the flats/houses will be mixed between different phases to balance
@jtonline the thing that always bugs me is distorted music. Absolutely no excuse
@OzoneVibe well looks like I'll be at a clubbing venue on sat!
@OzoneVibe certainly at early o-clock!
@Stewzer User preference can disable the tweets (I do)
@sxa555 everything will have location as an aspect anyway #foursquare
Anyone heard anything about @O2 , @bebroadband or @skyhd offering FTTC yet... hoping 1Q10 (live here by end/year @BT_Infinity only)
@Lipstedo one of the few things US/europe plugs are better for - far harder to step on in that way...
@chris_dudley yep I have, that page not changed in an age...........
@BellaCombs so you get the fun without pain and can run away if too hard work!
@rachelclarkef1 for personal use or sharing. i try to take gps log (when i remember) to geoencode photos
@vixisabel have any gaffa tape? make them work for their gift?
@gregjroberts tweetdeck or gravity (or similar). no question. also good facebook app. we have some but none as good as android/iphone by far
@vixisabel lucky recipient! make em work for you gifts
@gregjroberts tweetdeck by itself was almost enough reason to ditch meego/maemo. #twimgo is my fav client so far
waiting for rest of family to return home. will be watching #apprentice delayed?
just thought. must disanle @skyhd preview so i dont see #apprentice result when going to planner later!
oh great dead (crashed) @skyhd yet again. peeving me off now. anytime broken sw on amstrad. boot/backup/update again hope another update
so glad i checked otherwise no apprentice (tho iplayer would be ok). if crashing keeps happening want subs discount or cancel @skyhd
@skyhd only few weeks old. i'm pretty sure its sw bugs in new anytime sw. same as others reporting. whats status on these?
