The wild life gets the better of me. Too much running around on bicycles, too many beers, too little sleep. Too much proximity to Jo’s cold as well! Spent the day home in bed or on the couch or half-heartedly trying to fill in gaps in pages here that’ve been left blank.
Hmm, enter “Deadly Treadly” into Google and the only references it finds are to my website. I guess that explains why I got the phone call at work one day from someone wanting to go on one, pity she didn’t read anything and see that I’ve got nothing to do with them! After ten years running them, you’d think that at least someone else would have mentioned them somewhere…
Brings on the next thought… one or two of my friends had found this out and mentioned it to me. Felt weird, trying to reconcile the difference between writing that is read by anonymous and unknown audience, and writing that is read by people who know me. Does it change anything? Probably not, nothing of any great import is ever written here, its all just ramblings to keep me occupied and have the fun of playing with a website.
Tried to tidy up a few other pages, but wyvern’s disk is 99% full and I need to either delete a whole lot of stuff, or just buy a bigger disk. It’s getting closer and closer to “buy a new computer time. After a fortuitous reading in slashdot, I’ve found that unison seems to fit my needs for file replication, or at least provide a better fit than tra does, so for now I’ve got unison scripts setup to try and keep my WinXP laptop, linux desktop and linux home PCs in some sort of agreement… It does seem that a whole lot of people are after a decent distributed filesystem that can be used for “partially connected operation.
I’m not entirely happy with using http://allconsuming.net/ to record my readings and my books. Too slow, too many hassles, and too often there’s no record of a book that I own! I’d prefer if I could make my data available via RDF on my site, and give them a pointer to it, rather than me having to maintain my data on their site. I think I’ll try to maintain my own list, referring to theirs where I can.
