I ended up spending 16 hours at the casino, drunk as hell. My sleeping pattern is screwed up and I have a visitor coming today and it feels like I'm ready to go to sleep. -

Kuma: I'm not, what can I say? It's a talent! BP: I think I was, it's hard to tell how long though, could have been 0.0001 of a second or it could have been 10 mins. I just knew I was on the the ground which I wasn't before FT: Unfortunately not, and even if I did, I wouldn't take pictures, and even if I took pictures, I wouldn't send them to you! -

Yeah, I'm fine. My shoulder hurts from getting jarred but other than that, all good. It's pretty crazy though, I can imagine if a little kid had touched it they'd be much worse off. -

FT: so you'd suggest a bit later rather than a bit earlier? I was thinking mid Jan is more likely to be consistently good -

charlotte: Not noticeably, the only real thing affecting the sound is the quality of the headphones/earphones. These things usually come with really dodgy ones (for instance, the ipod white earphones). I'm waiting for the ipod that's coming out in December or early 2007 (apparently) - full touch screen interface.

People spend too much on consoles, the only one I've ever owned is the original xbox which was given to me as a gift. I don't understand people paying so much for the PS3 though. As far as I'm aware, there are only two games that will be available that aren't already out on the xbox360.

What's cooking Went for a pretty good walk yesterday, there's a whole lot of hikes near Sydney that are overnighters in winter but can be done if you push during summer I hate the ski base, such a waste of time. -

New notebook - best to wait for Vista?
sava replied to LiquidX's topic in General off-topic discussions
I've used Debian, Mandrake, Redhat and then Fedora, Mandriva and I've been using ubuntu for the past year. It has definitely come a long way and there are a lot of basic tasks that work smoothly (multiplatform software such as firefox play a large part in that). However there are so many little things that are frustrating. Given how much time I have to spend in front of a computer, these things end up making a big difference. I *can* understand why some people like it, but if you don't like tinkering, it can be painful. -

For computer science academia, everything is based around conferences... There's about 4 big ones a year and 16 medium ones and a shitload of irrelevant little ones. You submit your work to a conference and 3 months later, you find out if it was accepted or rejected (in which case, you get comments). After you get it back, there's another deadline about two weeks later which you send to. The next biggish deadline is in about a week, which I'm not going to make. So I'll keep working for the next 3 months, but I miss the (very valuable) opportunity to get feedback. In addition, I wou -
