Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

Awoke early, boggled at the massive eco-house under
construction behind them. Apparently adding fifteen 2x1 metre
solar panels on your roof and a load of insulation is license
for an unfeasibly large and unattractive building.
-
Off to the Booth museum while M. was asleep, to admire
the avian casualties of the 19th Century - of course it's
pleasing to see five Golden Eagles stuffed and in a case, but
you can't help wondering if the would have been prettier in
their unleaded state.

Home, lunch - off to Maplins with Father - picked up
a load of tiny spade clips, and returned home to try to
construct a compatible laptop battery connector - to allow a
true on-battery power consumption measurement. Spent hours
with father drilling holes in mahogony, spreading, thickening,
soldering, and arulditing a new male connector for the netbook,
while the babes watched a DVD; fun - left the epoxy setting
on the Aga.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
