Nothing much happening around the house. Waiting on a second quote for a replacement door where the crappy old one has leaked. Bloody tradesmen. I also need to get the internal stairs in the garage done and the door on it swapped over to open inwards. Who the hell puts an exterior door on a small porch that opens outwards? WTF!!
Had a meeting with martin today at tech, Looks positive to proceed despite not completing the second half of last semester. I am a bit pissed at myself since I was actually happy with where it was going, and it would be a usable idea DM or not with the integrated charger etc in it, but I will still be taking it thru to completion for DM.
Still have to clean the pool and sort out the poolside area before its really usable. The pile of rubble is still there.
Personal projects are all on hold at the moment because tech is the #1 priority, but I may get some stuff done along the way.
The tech blog is still at richms.vox.com - I really hate vox but its forced upon us.
It seems that every time I get a working Epson printer, it stops working soon after I start using it. The C65 I got is now having major errors, and likes to move the head along and smack it into the end really hard. Lack the motivation to look into it at the moment. Pulling these to bits really is a good insight into the manufacturing process for a cheap mass made consumer goods, and some of the mechanics are really clever inside it.
Not feeling too bad since taking the steps that the specialist said to, the no caffeine after midday is the hardest, so I have being having a lot of juice instead.
The fish are still all OK, I am going to at some stage get to a plumbing place and get the fittings to put an overflow and a proper spray bar onto the tank. This will at a later stage be hooked up to a sump, but for now I will just put the canister filter onto the hoses with some ghetto engineering. I should also see about solving the 30mm drop in the floor along the length of the tank.
On the cat front, its a bit sad, Steph had to get Amin put down since he had a paralyzed anus and tail, its also why he walked funny. Shame because he as actually a really nice cat, and his niceness is the only reason he didn’t disappear soon after they got him with the pooping problem.
I have being neglecting the myminicity a great deal. I have put the link into a few forum sigs and that’s about it. Try to visit myself on the PC and the N95 everyday but forget often.
This blog has being totally neglected unfortunately with me having better things to do, but I will be seeing about doing lots of my research to the tech one on here and importing it to vox since the only way of posting a proper post (the web editor) is so horrid to use.
