• Remember that study the press reported as claiming that bisexual men are a myth? dr_d tracked down the original study and researcher and reveals it to be non-peer-reviewed complete bullshitting with statistics. Gosh! Well I never! etc.

It's been packages and technology day! This morning we got a bird feeder stand and bath, which is sitting out the back and failing to attract any birdlife in the pre-storm weather. This afternoon we got a DVD±RW writer and a PCI 11g wireless card. This evening we put the DVD into the Macintosh. (The blue and white G3 is a wonderful machine to work on. Designed not to piss off hardware techs.) Right now redcountess is doing software and firmware foo and tomorrow I'll try burning something with it.

Someone on #wikipedia asked for help getting shots of Wikipedia on Palms and phones, so I volunteered Liz's Zire 72s and arkady's Tungsten C. The C's stock browser is Palm Web Browser 2.0.1.1 (from 2002) and renders it horribly; the Zire's is palmOne Web Pro 3.5 (from 2003) and does a surprisingly good job (having the small screen rendering foo). It was actually enjoyable to use, reading and editing. Now all it needs is multiple browser windows. Arkady is considering a more recent browser for hers. Here's to Minimo making it to Palm.

Tomorrow I will put the old DVD reader/CD burner and the PCI wifi card into the FreeBSD box and start on getting the card working. I am being interviewed in the afternoon about Wikipedia for a radio show (not sure who, I'm speaking to a Clara Long) and in the evening I will be having dinner with the luvverly nisaba. I really should buy a new phone as well.

I am eyeing up a new camera. I'm really annoyed the current Casio Exilim range doesn't include the MP3 player cameras. Though I might get a 1.3 megapixel one (the old EX-M1) real cheap soon.

Oh, and a few days ago I got a pile of backup CDs from 2002 which I thought were lost forever. More photos to put up before I die!
