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.

-
Up early, feeling more or less unwell - a day of conference
calls with some hacking in the background at this & that.
-
More plumbing today - great, finally a radiator in the
loft (my office) to warm the cockles of the (extremely sedentry and
furred up) heart. Nice.
-
Having showered the babes, discovered the shower would no
longer turn off; drat. Dis-assembled it, apparently the spring loaded
solenoid valve is clogged with crud internally: huge great chunk of
corroded copper & scale in the (partially broken) copper mesh
filter to stop that sort of thing getting in. Re-assembled - sadly
it is necessary to disable the toilet and sink in order to turn it
off. Down to one functioning toilet up-stairs, one sink in the
kitchen, and no shower: bad. Contemplated ordering the spare part
myself post-haste - still, nothing so fun as turning an isolator
with a screwdriver each time you want to wash.
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.
