Tiger vs Linux
Monday, April 18th, 2005Exams soon, far too soon. At least it’ll be over.. and it’ll be time to relax for a short while.
I have seen some nice instructions to enable xscreensaver load images from flickr; the script that is pointed to is written in perl. I’d really like to modify this script to allow the images to come from a tag, instead of from a user. (e.g. Screensaver = latest images tagged Glasgow) Ah well, in time maybe.
In other news, Tiger vs Linux - let’s see which will prevail in one-on-one competition : Tiger vs Linux.
Fire…

Thursday, April 7th, 2005Offshore and wifi
Thursday, April 7th, 2005I had not realised that Offshore provide free wifi access. That explains the abundance of laptops that seem to be present in that coffee shop.
I’m writing this post on the ipaq, while I await the arrival of Chao, a friend from university.
How cool.

Just for Laughs?
Tuesday, April 5th, 2005I noticed something in the TV guide, reminds me of when police in town stole my ID..
60mph 1m from the ground…
Sunday, April 3rd, 2005Yesterday, I flew a microlight over central scotland. Cumbernauld airport (EGPG) to Stirling Castle, and back. The weather was excellent, though a little hazy, about 8km visibility according to glasgow airport ATIS.
Throughout the flight, we performed several exciting manouvers. We buzzed a field close to the ground, throttled the engine back and glided for a minute, and stalled to lose altitude, rapidly!
It was amazing. I want to get my private pilot’s license. Oh, and I was scanning for Wi-Fi access points throughout the flight.
