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.

Off to Rock in the morning, J. dealt with the babes, solid sermon.
Back for lunch at our place, with James, Kate & Peter. Fed them up.
Played with the babes a little, examined the problems of in-castle shelf
and sofa construction.
-
Laura & Creighton arrived with broken Acer laptop. Diverted
to this task, then out to Hope Baptist in Teversham to hear James speak
in the evening - stayed for some after-service snacks, a fine community
going there, interesting people.
-
Back for dinner & more laptop disassembly - having removed
almost every screw - and levered lots of plastic bits (many of which
surprisingly failed to noticably break) located, and de-soldered the
evily under-engineered power-jack. Never seen something so important,
so obviously flimsy - the tragedy of the thing is that a beautiful
and hyper-complex working laptop, should be laid low by a tiny piece
of broken wire doing the simplest of tasks.
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.
