Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-09-26

Posted on September 26, 2010 by Chris Samuel
  • 6+ months since last able to access the details of my UniSuper account due to their review, what on earth is going on? #
  • Still no benefit statement for December 2009 either from UniSuper.. 🙁 #
  • from latest git pull of the #Linux kernel – "alpha: fix a 14 years old bug in sigreturn tracing" – oops! #
  • Rule 1: do not leave your coat in the data centre. #
  • Rule 2: if you leave yourr coat in the data centre do not wait until 5 mins after the ops team have gone home to find out #
  • Rule 3: if you fail on rule 1 and 2 pray that the good folks in the DC eng team are working late. Thanks Will and Robin! #
  • An owl and a golf course (almost) went to sea, on a great big ocean liner http://bbc.in/9ARVYE (with apologies to Mr Lear) #
  • Archaeological dig at Little La Trobe Street with big yellow trowel lurking http://twitpic.com/2qtd6n #
  • It appears that one of the games on show at #SFD Melbourne was Osmos which is proprietary! 🙁 #sfd2010 #sfd_melb #
  • Last of stage 1 #VLSCI #HPC systems went into production today after last minute hardware failure, already over 50% busy! #
  • So now at #VLSCI we have 1080 cores of SGI Nehalem, 640 cores of IBM Nehalem (both 2.6GHz) and 8192 BlueGene/P cores 🙂 #
  • Anyone know anything about this archaeological dig in Little La Trobe Street ? @melbournemuseum? @museumvictoria? http://flic.kr/p/8D6Sk1 #
  • Hmm, don't think the #newtwitter works with Konqueror in #KDE 4.5.1, just get a blank page… #
  • Aha, so #newtwitter works with the #webkit rendering engine in #KDE #039;s Konqueror, but not the default #KHTML engine #
  • Stuck at Box Hill on Belgrave @metrotrains, no idea what's going on! #
  • The #newtwitter interface is broken on #N900 browser, typing is very slow and spurious characters appear whilsy typing. #
  • Train on it's way again after 10 mins or so at Box Hill, no announcement from @metrotrains driver about what was going on #
  • What a fabulous afternoon; lovely spring sun, working in the garden fencing, weeding and paving and absolutely no #aflgf #
  • Transportal lets you compare 5 transport methods between 2 locations in Victoria http://bit.ly/beVOA8 (via @kattekrab) #
  • Well done to @gavinballard on #Transportal http://bit.ly/beVOA8 #
  • #Linux kernel commit bb9c861ee1b94c97cd98c783a2b4c1cf53ff1712 has a "X-Roothole-Covering-Cabal: TINRCC" tag 😉 #
  • Overclocked my phone thanks to hint from @andybotting, makes the #N900 much snappier! #
  • I'm using the "power" kernel from the extras repository for overclocking the #N900 also includes IPv6 support + others #
  • Issue for archaeologists: finds near water could have been trampled by animals, making dating harder http://bit.ly/9USawC #
