Last dog watch, 2 bells (7:27 pm)
Today is my old friend Laura's birthday. She recently had a baby. Happy multiple birthdays, Laura!
Morning watch, 8 bells (8:03 am)
- Old people make any line LONGER.. #
- Ordered a 21" multi-touch LCD monitor from HP for $299. Could that be a typo?? #
- Gonna take this new iMac home and I'm so gonna do.......something! #
- Tweeting from the new iMac. Had a weird update issue with iTunes, but it seems to be fixed since I rebooted. #
- Installing Traditional Chinese language support. Hope this works as easily as it does on Linux.. #
- Apparently the install claims I've put older files on my system that may not work properly and I have to download a 500Mb update. #
- Installed HandBrake. Let the transcoding begin! #
- Um, yeah. That 500Mb update won't install because of my hard drive. I guess 988Gb free is too little. #
- Now I'm downloading a 260Mb update for Xcode. Madness! MADNESS!! #
- Just discovered "port." In the terminal. I am home. #
- Okay, did somebody ENTIRELY FORGET how tab should work on an Apple when moving through dialog boxes?? #
- Sweet! Lost a real follower, not just a pr0n bot! #
- Having a wacky USB issue. I think it's my printer. Time to go networked. #
- Yup, it was the printer. Time to find a network hub, or make a really long CAT5 cable.. #
- Stupid iMac won't recognize my thumb drive. It said it needed to be repaired, so I did. Still won't mount. It's just FAT32.. #
- Can't figure out how to rename a folder. Yet, somehow, this is more intuitive. #
- Folder rename issue is because they were copied from DVD. A terminal and a quick 'chmod -R u+w' should fix it. Haven't tried yet though. #
- Copying files to the new iMac. Lots of data to copy. Seriously, how could they distribute it without TeX? #
- I got all excited about installing Minix in VMware Fusion, but it just doesn't work. One of my dreams just died
# - I named my new iMac "smacky" after Torque Smacky from Invader Zim. Well, that and it has the word 'mac' inside it. I'm clever like that. #
- Got Qt installed, built sample application just fine. Also installed TeX and OpenOffice. VPN works great, calling it a night. #
- Oh yeah! The latest @Footstompin podcast is off to a great start! #
- Been a @Seapine customer for many years. Really wish TestTrack License server propagated client changes faster. 30 minute wait is too long. #
- Very nice! http://tweetphoto.com/10350837 #
- My life (lately) is one long line of file copy operations.. #
- WTF?? Latest release of Zend Studio for iMac requires Rosetta? No Intel version?? #FAIL #
- Trying to finish up some work I brought home. Unfortunately, I didn't bring home my whiteboard with the algorithm I wrote up.. #
- Between meetings and lunch, I'm just now starting to work. I hate days like this.. #
- I hope you wore your purple fedora, too! (@NathanFillion)http://yfrog.com/3guzgjuj #
- I just can't get over how much I like listening to @CarbonLeaf. Especially at work! #
- Watched some dude ski into a tree in downhill on Olympic preview. Epic fail! #
