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, house tidying, out shopping for baguettes, back
to get Barbeque going - it burned rather well, cooking both the
sausages and the hair on my right arm to a fine crisp. Met up with
the parents of E's friends (we accidentally over-ordered, with ~20
kids). Eventually got everyone fed, games played, things cleaned
up etc.
-
Left J. hard at it; set off to the Newmarket Carnival with
the babes. Amused by the neat "do not drill this panel" legend inside the
fire engine (presumably to protect the enclosed water-tank), makes you
wonder how often it was pierced previously. H. went in a mini-Zorb
(rather fun), N. and M. in some back-of-a-trailer "fun house" thing,
and E. plonked for an ice-cream.
Lots of wandering, and choosing, climbing etc. Much free amusement
from the rather steep bank by the exit.

Babes to bed, watched Hustle, spent a good while fixing
libreprap's serial comms code; adding a few tricks to reset
confused firmware when re-starting the client software; nearly back
to full printing glory. Switched repsnapper master over to the
'meeks' branch of libreprap.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under

created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under

themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
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.
