If you enjoyed the first film as much as I did, Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle will not disappoint in the slightest. Don't even consider bringing your brain. It's received a bad rap from people who demand 'plausibility' and 'original CGI' and 'vague acknowledgement of the laws of physics' and 'not being utterly ridiculous' and other such foolishness. Don't believe them. Their hearts are not pure.

Just received elixxir's card. I have, however, learnt the hard way to check cards for crunchy glitterbomb goodness before opening. Nice try, babe. I can so imagine you in Charlie's Angels, though.

Thunder cracked so I cracked back.

I decided not to wait for a contrib build of Thunderbird 0.4 for FreeBSD. No - being insane, I decided to try building it myself. First time through, I ran out of disk space. (Mozilla's arse is FAT.) Second attempt, something obscure died two-thirds of the way through, and I really can't be arsed to fix it. Bah. I have downloaded the French build again, now that it's up. (You can tell it to speak Engrish.) It includes Enigmail, so I may even try harder to remember my GPG pass phrase.

The spammers have discovered a new and particularly low and scurvy trick. You know the worst form of cube mail: badly-written glurge meant to raise your spirits and be forwarded to your address book to brighten their trash folders in turn. Today's had an admonition at the bottom to forward it to two other people ... and an ad for the spammer who sent it. I only read that far to work out whether it was spam, having not recognised the sender.

This, of course, raises an important research question for computer science: can Bayesian filtering detect and dispose of stupid email jokes? I'll be doing my bit to find out.

Update: redcountess says the 'send' button doesn't work in this build. However, the menu item and Control-Enter both work fine. Does the button work in the official Linux build? (I'd be very surprised if it didn't work in the Windows one.) Update: She says it's working okay now. w31rd.
