• .@i2yh Thanks. Thinking of getting a giant network cable from our place in Singapore over to here, would be more reliable an cheaper :( in reply to i2yh #
  • This has caused my work incalcuable damage and set me back weeks (and lost me brownie points). Epic #Telstra and #Internode fail :'-( #
  • #Internode made no attempt to contact me before disconnecting my service even when Telstra admitted it wasn't my fault. Very poor show. #
  • Update: Just got an email from #Internode, I have to reregister from scratch again. And that will take even more time. I'm mad -_- #
  • @monnie Yeah alas Telstra munted up our phone line, they've fixed it now just waiting on Internode. It's been a very quiet, lonely week! in reply to monnie #
  • .@edible_hat it's hailing pieces the size of rice grains here in Mawson Lakes, loud as all outdoors! in reply to edible_hat #
  • @spam @MaurineBradfo #
  • Oh yeah one last thing, my generation's obsession with the word "like" needs to stop! It's like, totally, like, grating. #
  • Better get home to watch the Singapore F1 :D. Goodbye internets #
  • Maybe Australia needs a Telecommunications First political party or something. Name is a bit long, but I'd vote for them! #
  • I love Australia, but the chronic lack of telecom. investment is making the decision easier to live overseas when I'm done studying again. #
  • Okay maybe just a bit more whinging, SCV in SG had us connected within 45 minutes of us signing up. Here net goes down and takes days to fix #
  • To spare you all the whinging of not having internet at home, I blogged about it instead. Good to vent :) #
  • @nikc Are you a Pickaxe fan too? :) in reply to nikc #
  • Uploaded all the Sudoku puzzles I've done since the home Intertubes went down. Fascinating stuff! http://rubenerd.com/sudoku.xml #sudoku #

  • One Java class with methods down, 16-19 to go! Hey, at least I'm not bored :) #
  • @jerrynovak Alas the 3.1 update broke tethering for me, can't use it at all any more. Thinking of downgrading back to 3.0.x for now in reply to jerrynovak #
  • Good news though, I downloaded full copies of the Javadocs and updated ri at uni for Ruby so can at least do work #
  • Another day without home intertubes at home and 9 times of 10 I get timeouts on my iTelephone data plan. I just want stuff to work!!! :( #
  • Little to no mid semester break for me, and I needed it. I really, really, really did. Whinging over, g'night. #
  • And the 3.1 update messing up tethering so I couldn't use my iPhone for internet, and UniSA blocking SSH, absolutely perfect :( #
  • I just can't get over how devastating not having Internet at home has been, its set me back weeks. I hope Telstra is happy. #
  • Aside from the strong wind, nice day today :) #
  • At Cocolat at Rundle Street. Schweet :) #
  • I wonder if Alan A'Dale ever made David Bowie's Golden Years a part of His Tale? His Tale? The Tale of Alan A'Dale? #
  • Still can't get this blasted David Bowie song out of my head. "Golden years! Goooold… Ha ha ha… Golden years!" #
  • Off to have Indian food. Still no Internet at home -_- #
  • @i2yh Jeebus! Make sure you get plenty of coffee and other such healthy whatnot to help you in reply to i2yh #
  • @mister_peterman Hey that's a brilliant idea! I've been writing iPhone web app for my Django blog but that'd be a simple stopgap in meantime in reply to mister_peterman #
  • And I can't use the WordPress iTelephone client because I bolted down my WP install. It's just so insecure by default, creeps me out #
  • My poor blog (http://rubenerd.com/ …I feel like Dvorak!) though hasn't had a dry spell like this for a while. Last post was on Monday :O #
  • I hate to admit it, but I've been surprisingly productive without Internet at home! Just wish I had a local copy of the Javadocs API whatnot #
  • @owlwaltz Can you get other people to help you or are they individual project things? in reply to owlwaltz #

  • @Tarale Heh exactly, if I wanted celebrity boobs I have an iPhone with Safari :P in reply to Tarale #
  • Forget that Krispy Kreme crap, Max Brenners is where it's at! They have a branch in Sydneyland now don't they? #
  • Just suddenly have a craving for Max Brenners at the Esplanade in SG. Hug mug dark Italian chocolate drink… aaaaaa soooo good!!! #
  • @Tarale A current Economist or BidnessWeek would be cool though. Well, at least until the blasted Kindle starts exporting! in reply to Tarale #
  • @owlwaltz Worrys and problems seem to be rampant this week -_- Whats up? in reply to owlwaltz #
  • Still no Internet this morning, and still don't have the time to sit down and try fixing it. Me angrys. -____- #
  • @edible_hat I can believe that! You'd think with the money they rake in they'd have more recent ones in reply to edible_hat #
  • @braindouche Southpark already did that Gayfish episode for Kanye, not sure that they'd do the awards thing. Would be cool if they did thou! in reply to braindouche #
  • @Tarale Ha I'm waiting at the docs too, but here for my sis. In a stereotypical way all the magazines are old :P in reply to Tarale #
  • That Refund Home Loans guy is a tool :P #TheMorningShow #TVInDoctorWaitingRooms #
  • Can't connect to my SSH server from UniSA computer pools. #FailDay2009 is rapidly turning into #FailWeek2009. Some mid semester break! :P #
  • Ugh, been offline for basically two days, where do I begin to catch up? #
  • It's official, @simonpegg is now the single greatest celebrity using Twitter. Not that I'm a brown-noser or anything, mine is more pink. #
  • @spam @moneymome #
  • At the computer pools at the Mawson campus because we still don't have internet at home -_- #
  • RT @SBSNews Retrogamers call for creation of interactive museum of classic arcade games that bewitched teenagers in 80s http://bit.ly/2t7QH #
  • Wow, computer pools are pretty hectic and busy at 8am http://twitpic.com/imsc3 #
  • Don't have time to diagnose this silly home net connection, so gonna grab a huge Americano and sit in the library #
  • Ugh & not only is our home Internet down but the data connection on my iPhone is the slowest & buggiest it's ever been. Can't catch a break! #
  • Morning all, Internet still down at home here, fantastic :/ #
  • G'night all, gonna try having early night tonight. Here's hoping home Internet working tomorrow so I can make all my calls, send work etc :( #
  • Got fingers caught in door, owies! This day just keeps finding new ways to fail! #FailDay2009 #
  • Home Internet is still down and iPhone data Internet connection only works maybe 1 in 10 tries. When will this day end? :( #
  • Even more problems that aren't my fault but I have to deal with them. It'd almost be easier to take if it *were* all my fault :P #
  • @monnie Heh thanks. ah it just keeps getting worse, but I keep thinking "this'll make an epic blog post!" :) in reply to monnie #
  • "What, you're leaving your part up to me?" "Sure, no worries, lump it all on!" :-( #
  • Today is officially become Fail Day 2009. 99% of things that could have gone wrong have. It's actually making me roar with laughter! #
  • Word processors are painful :/ #
  • Well okay not boiling with rage, just pissed of that the Internet chose today to fail. Murphy's Law working perfectly -_- #
  • Well looks like I'll be spending my entire day at the library. My blood is boiling with rage, but what can I do? #
  • @pschulz01 Bummer, it must be something on our end. Phone line or router or something in reply to pschulz01 #
  • Just finished at the bank, back home to see if The Internode Internets are working again #

  • The daughter is not happy! #MidsomerMurders #
  • .@tekhelet is a nice person but she keeps tweeting me bible quotes after I repeately told her not to. Violation of the 11th commandment :P #
  • @tekhelet I don't know how many more times I can politely tell you to stop before I block you. in reply to tekhelet #
  • Midsomer Murders on tonight!!! #
  • Reason I don't like PHP #213, the "===" operator. Why can't false just be false? :( #
  • I always spell content as "cotnent", not because I think that's how you spell it, but because my fingers hit the keys in the wrong order #
  • Time for some shameless self promotion, my pointless new Sudoku site is launched! http://bit.ly/U1ZgY #
  • I've counted 12 messages to me today trying to convert me to their respective religions, in clear violation of the 11th Commandment! -_- #

  • Check that, I can't "delete" tweets from then Mentions column, seems I still can everywhere else #
  • Is there any reason why I can't "delete" tweets in TweetDeck as of 0.30.4? I don't like having hate tweets visible all the time :( #
  • Friends, don't let your friends use JavaScript to compose pages!!! http://bit.ly/3Do0OX #
  • I like the course's flexibility, as long as you can justify your networking choice with solid reasons, you get the marks. Creativity rules! #
  • Okay I lied, I kept Twitter open :). Of all the courses I'm doing, I'm actually finding networking fun. I get to design stuff :) #
  • I'm going to do something unprecedented and turn Twitter off for much of today so I get more work done! See you all later #

  • I think my favourite Opera 10 browser theme colour tint is purple. Uh oh #
  • @monnie Good good :) Tiger Balm (from my beloved Singapore!) is the best heatrub bar none if you're shopping for any, not that I'm biased in reply to monnie #
  • Opera 10 is beautiful! Sidebar tabs! Easy ad blocking filters! Fast to render pages and app launches instantly. Could be my primary browser! #
  • @monnie Ouchies :(. I hate that kind of pain, there's literally nothing you can do about it other than chewing on a log or something in reply to monnie #
