DWP: 20 minute wait, two-minute interview. I'm paid till August 24th, so still count as employed until then. My paperwork is all the right stuff should I need to put in a claim then. Stopped in at SpecSavers and they put new nosepads on my five-year-old glasses free.

The strawberries fed on coffee grounds are a huge success! Very nice and taste like very healthy strawberries. I'm not sure if they're actually caffeinated. Certainly the slugs and snails left trails on the ground (and grounds) but no more than nibbled the leaves. (Coffee grounds are full of nitrogen but quite acidic; strawberries like acidic soil, many other plants don't. Experiment at your peril.)

Linutop set up at last, replacing the ancient Thinkpad 560X I was using as a server. It has not much CPU (though quite enough to happily play full-screen video off the USB drive without a hiccup — 400MHz Geode), 512MB RAM and only 1GB disk. This means that you can't aptitude update; aptitude safe-upgrade without FILLING THE DISK. You need to remove OpenOffice.org first (because frankly, it's so fat you'd have to be on crack to run it at all). As a bedroom video player and household server, it's ideal. And it's SILENT. Utterly silent. I like it. I like it a lot. Many *pint*s to lproven!

that study is rather good fun :) looks pretty much like what the true believers produce, too.
