@R_Chirgwin No liberty has been taken. The photo is licensed out as CC BY. Though that fact should perhaps be mentioned.
Copying files. Lots of files.
@SnarkyPlatypus “Snob”? No, I am merely noting the bleak reality of my existence.
Losing two whole stars.
@bob_bain I must admit, Bob, the extent to which you’re RTing so many of my anodyne tweets to be a tiny bit creepy.
This headache is a bit annoying. Actually, a lot annoying.
@AbrasiveTeapot Ah, I’m using “feeding the chooks” more broadly. Throwing the assembled punters little seeds to keep them amused.
I would respond to more people on Twitter just now BUT THE TELSTRA NEXT G DATA LINK DOWN NEAR DARLING HARBOUR IS CURRENTLY TUMESCENT.
@AbrasiveTeapot Oh, you don’t know Joh Bjelke-Petersen’s usage of “feed the chooks”?
@R_Chirgwin Ah, yes, I see. There WAS arsehattery. It was me not understanding what day of the week it was.
Many police cars with sirens heading up Bathurst St towards Town Hall.
Feeding the chooks is such a simple but effective pastime. ;)
@R_Chirgwin Belay that. I just read the bookings calendar properly. I am an arsehat.
@R_Chirgwin Also, if you’re prepping Tea Tree Cottage, there’s a bazillion freshly-washed, unfolded towels in Rosella Cottage dining room.
@imtimhanlon Thanks for the BusyCal recommendation. I’ll browse now, but do a proper requirements spec before choosing.
Thu plan, version 3: Potter through email, planning; do Ron Jeremy / Sexpo / return to Wentworth Falls tomorrow. Ping @R_Chirgwin
A week from today: iappANZ’s “Identity and Privacy” workshop with Identity Woman. I’ll be there, thanks Lockstep. arseh.at/t7f
Becoming quite dissatisfied with Apple’s iCal and Address Book. Do they assume Mac owners have no friends or responsibilities?
@semiboganman Indeed, @caseyjohnellis suggested 7 days until exploits, @ChrisGatford 10 days on. To badly paraphrase what they said.
Me at @CSO_Australia: “Microsoft patches Remote Desktop Protocol hole but danger remains” arseh.at/t7e
Survey scammers are now targeting Pinterest? Excellent. arseh.at/t7d
“Australians value privacy – but are they willing to work to protect it?” ask@zyzzyvamediaiarseh.at/t7cJE
I approve of healthy diets.
@SnarkyPlatypus Only 4.5 stars, alas.
@SnarkyPlatypus “Goon”? But I have a bottle of cabernet merlot courtesy of the hotel… ;)
Story for @CSO_Australia filed, and it contains Facts which have been Checked. Now, to check out and figure out how fucked my schedule is.
I’d like to be in Canberra on 27-28 March, but the thing I want to attend is only one hour so can’t yet justify the trip. Anything else on?
I’m also doing a keynote at the @saasu Cloud Conference on 11 May in Sydney. arseh.at/szu
On yeah. I’m speaking at @media140au’s Digital Futures in Perth 26-28 April. arseh.at/qtz
Committing further acts of journalism.
You’ll have to wait, @liam_dwyer, my @crikey_news piece has had to be bumped to tomorrow’s edition. Was just told.
@Bondles That is a lovely teapot. There is no reason why I wouldn’t use it, except for that fact that I haven’t yet.
Story filed for @crikey_news, using the terms “doggy style”, “sex with food”, “jackhammer” and “pandaslut”.
Thu plan, reordered: Write for @crikey_news then @CSO_Australia; Ron Jeremy interview and Sexpo floor; errands; return to Wentworth Falls.
My schedule is becoming toast. And there isn’t even any toast.
Hmmm. That plan looks a bit unsensible. I may try to move things around a bit once all people are awake.
Thu plan: Write for @CSO_Australia and @crikey_news; 1100 Ron Jeremy interview; lunch; errands; return to Wentworth Falls; produce podcast.
Oh hello, Fursday. More or less.
