This made me laugh more than these things usually do...

So I was just browsing hotels, as you do, trying to set something up for our forthcoming 10th wedding anniversary (it's a surprise, but there's less than no chance she'll ever read this), and found this (with a screen grab here for after they fix it).

Well it's not THAT weird but I'm trying to work out what's going on.

Does anybody want two before I stick them on eBay?

OK they're a charity, but that doesn't make them immune to incompetence.

This chap's solution to the problem of his neighbours stealing his wireless bandwidth is worth a giggle:

I've been getting an increasing number of emails of the "be our agent in the UK and earn cash in your spare time" ilk.

So you can run Windows on an Intel Mac with Apple's Boot Camp, and get all the speed and loveliness of running native, should you need it.

My clichéd list of sovereign apps keeps growing as I remember more and more stuff. (I can't belieeeeve I missed Novacaster off! Now remedied)

There is a Bruce Ure in Watauga, Texas (amongst others) -- director of Watauga's Department of Public Safety. I sometimes look him up and see what's going on in his life.

Well so much for reliable. My Mac Pro isn't.

So I place an order with Scan, thinking they look cheaper (even) than Novatech and have a wider range, and am slightly disconcerted to discover AT THE CHECKOUT, i.e. after an hour's careful selection of stuff, that the order won't be dispatched for FOUR DAYS.

OK, it's a bit of an inflammatory title, but it's another Finder annoyance and it'll be interesting to see if it's just me.

This has to rank as one of the stupidest things done by a criminal in recent years.

I don't think much of the way OSX cops out of some multiple operations.

At last, a food delivery service in New Malden that not only isn't pizza or Indian, but is sushi: Forest and Ocean, 020 8337 7500 / 020 8330 4369, and apparently their web site is bibimbub.com although that seems to be another branch.

I just placed a trial order for prime ostrich fillet from OsLinc. If it checks out well, it may be on the menu this Christmas.

For the second time in 3 months the idiots at OneAndOne, my rackspace providers, have reset the DNS on my ure.org.uk domain to its default (wrong) setting, and then denied all knowledge of it, insisting that someone must have logged in to my account and so I ought to change my password with all speed.
