Maybe 85% of the passengers will live to the end of the journey.
Westward ho! With a bunch of weekenders who have no idea what “quiet carriage” means, and this #purpletrain lacks the signage.

People send me the strangest photos by MMS.
SwiftOnSecurity I wish it was harder to be lonely. Like, NP-hard.
I’m glad so many people appreciate my predicament.
@scottcarson1957 Thank you. I’m a tolerant man, but even I have my limits.
I have found a pub that is capable of serving me both food and beer, so there’s that.
I have just found a pub whose kitchen is not open on Sundays. I will return later to burn it to the ground.
@semibogan @juhasaarinen I appreciate how you make things simple for me.
My emergency duck has been sabotaged. The quiet duck spot has been inundated with 300+ rugby fans for a rowdy thing.
Sun plan, redraft: Chores (done); tram to Haymarket; lunch; train to Wentworth Falls, sulking en route; wine; re-plan the week ahead.
Sulking.
The nearby cafe’s kitchen is closed already. What the fuck is wrong with these people?
@JoshuaWithers Ta. I’ll have a squizz and get back to you later today. I’m rushing to lunch right now and don’t have the docs handy.
@JoshuaWithers … but I’m happy to look at that pricing if there’s cheaper on the market here.
@JoshuaWithers I’ve gone under the cheapest actual Australian retailer I could find, and then there’s a 2-year warranty covering courier…
@JoshuaWithers Where can you get it new for $420? And yes it’s new, as the tweet said, a warranty replacement.
Re the Zoom H6 for sale, I accept credit cards, and if you’re in the Sydney metro area I can deliver in person. Or not, if you prefer.
I’m selling a Zoom H6 audio recorder, overkill for my needs. Brand new warranty replacement in (opened) box + 2y warranty. $460.
Thanks for all the ssh client suggestions. I’ll check them out when I’ve finished my errands. Much appreciated.

@scottcarson1957 I agree, the Manifesto is key to the whole lifestyle.
I’m surprised no-one’s tried to sell me a virtual desktop yet. I guess they value the bruise-free nature of their own face.
Happy now, @PeteLawler?
Hey The Other Kind of Developers, can anybody recommend a good ssh client for an Android tablet?
@PeteLawler Look, I just need to get into a shell on my remote Linux server. From an iPad. That said, I do gave an Android tablet here.
@scottcarson1957 That’s pretty much my option, yes. Also, stop washing and shaving and go live in the mountains. Oh wait.
Hey Developers, can anybody recommend a good ssh client for the iPad?
@scottcarson1957 Such things aren’t open on the weekend. It’s like the third world here. Wait, no, the opposite.
@OaaSvc Yes, but not because of that. Because @crikey_news use the word “terrorism” in a headline I’ve been labelled a Zionist. Hilarious.
RT @stils_laptop: Hey watch it, that is the MagSafe port. How would you like to have the wrong thing put in the wrong socket? [Well… ;)]
Bugger. The surface of the broken titanium weld is too rough for Selleys Quick Fix to form a bond. I’ll try Plan B a bit later.
@swearyanthony The standard is “3 to 5 days”, they work weekends, and the parts are in stock. So Wednesday- ish.
OK, now to fix my temporary vision problem. The procedure calls for mineral turpentine and methylated spirits, in that order.
@swearyanthony Well, I’m making that assumption. I’d need a thing to add a USB port in any event. All. Too. Hard.

@PeteLawler No, it’s also the modular capsules with more mic choices, more complex mixer, better mics… But I don’t “need” that.
Well, @purserj, there was a Pozible for a guy to get a perm. pozible.com/project/24047
@PeteLawler Was it? No, I take responsibility for my own actions. It was good to evaluate it, and if I did more complex stuff it’d be good.
RT @purserj: Actually if you want evidence that the asteroid is due this is it kotaku.com/potato-salad-m… [Er, I cannot judge this person.]
@purserj @carolduncan I accept Visa, MasterCard, AmericanExpress… .;)
@stils_laptop Traitor!
stils_laptop I’m so sorry I didn’t mean to break the gfx card. I was just trying to disable the iSight so I didn’t have to see *everything*.
@erkpod @carolduncan a plus the whole 6-channel thing would be very useful for certain kinds of work. The Zoom website shows configurations.
@erkpod @carolduncan a superior all round. Mics have bigger surface, more rugged, better interface, hard faders. Beautiful kit.
DeptOfAustralia The seal is a kangaroo wearing a monocle, smoking a cigarette (FDR-style), and has octopus arms with fists at the end.
DeptOfAustralia I’m looking for a illustrator who can quote on creating the @DeptOfAustralia official seal.
@carolduncan It’s brilliant gear, yes. A powerful tool. But I’ve found that I can use a Zoom H2 for my simple needs.
@virag064 Well Zoom do now make video cameras. Have a squizz at their website.
@reselsnark @leslienassar Indeed. Alas, I don’t gave one, and the budget for new hardware is empty.
stils_laptop I am back home! The apple store! Free from the evil master @stilgherrian. Maybe they will believe the stories of what he does with me.
RT @stils_laptop: Whhhhat happened? [Oh FFS…]
If you produce a podcast and you live in Australia, you may want go see my immediately previous tweet about a new Zoom H6 recorder for sale.
I’ve decided to sell my Zoom H6 recorder. It’s overkill for my needs. Brand new warranty replacement in (opened) box + 2y warranty. $460.
@blahjedi “Hitherto”? Apple’s idea of autocorrect is hilarious. Anyway, I’m sure the meaning came across.
@JL_Whitaker I don’t have the budget for that. It’s easier for me to rearrange the schedule.
@blahjedi Kinda, apart from the ability to run OS X software. Thanks for hitherto offer, though.
@leslienassar Thanks. Fortunately Tuesday is a conference all day, and Monday is planning. Wednesday is the killer, ‘cos I’ll have to write.
RT @mpesce: did it die? [It did. Graphics card died. That’s integrated with the logic board so all that’s being replaced. Also keyboard.]
I guess it’ll be a chance to check out some iPad and Android tablet apps. Though I can’t read data off the encrypted Time Machine backup.
It’ll be interesting to see if I can plan things so that I can still work without my MacBook Pro until about Wednesday.
Sun plan, draft: Laundry; fix glasses; re-plan week ahead (a); deploy emergency duck; afternoon and evening TBA, depending on (a).
Is there some kind of support group for people who read ‘mX’?
“Pavlov’s Cuckoo Clock.”
OH FFS PEOPLE THAT WAS NOT AN INVITATION FOR YOU TO TWEET YOUR TONY ABBOTT FEELS AT ME JUST FUCK OFF IT’S TOO EARLY YOU LIFELESS ARSEHATS.
@SquigglyRick @expectproblems @TheMurdochTimes I had though that might have been the case. Subtle sarcasm etc.
Yes, @expectproblems, this was tweeted by @TheMurdochTimes … “Just trust Tony” pic.twitter.com/iItvjV3Hpp
Just heard on @RNBBing: “Kevin Andrews wants an organisation called the ‘Civil Society Centre of Excellence’,” which I am unpacking slowly.
@expectproblems “Just trust Tony.”
@jeamland This app could be called UberUber. It would ask why you have requested an Uber and offer suggestions for improving your life.
@jeamland I have noted your suggestion for future reference. Possibly we should make an app.
Didn’t kill anyone.
Awake again, after being asleep again, but still feeling dreadful. Rearranging the universe appropriately.

@scottcarson1957 I may not be an aeronautical engineer, but I don’t need a test to tell me it’s safer to not be on a rocket sled.
@AllAreNoOne @anongirlx2014 Excellent.
SwiftOnSecurity I have been informed that “InfoSec Thought Leader” is not a singular office. Thus I have promoted myself to “InfoSec Thought Supreme Leader”
@JanJoostBouwman So, ACL says 24 mo to “reasonable”, Apple says 12, or 36 if extended. That is, the third year is fuzzy.
@JanJoostBouwman The ACCC recently pointed out that Apple’s warranty terms didn’t match AU consumer law, hence this. apple.com/au/legal/statu…
Seeing @johnemcintyre start his day in a similar* mood to me reminds me to tweet his second most recent blog post. touch.baltimoresun.com/#section/-1/ar…
TheMediaTweets Good infographic from the Guardian. Can’t vouch for the accuracy but looks about right… pic.twitter.com/Rb7j4lfxqS
Statements like “I do not want to be awake at 0300” challenge the notion of what “I” even means.
Sunday. God hates you. The video feed has failed. Your life support systems will be turned off. No-one will care. Sunday.
