Apple Malaysia fails. They’d take a week to import the MacBook part from Singapore and fit it. Now it won’t be fixed until next year. |
Staying awake, somehow, in Kuala Lumpur. |
Why is the "San Francisco Soup Company" serving "New England Clam Chowder"? Has SF run out of its own clams? |
Six days later, leaving California with MacBook still unfixed. Crappity crap. Coming up: Will Malaysia's service centers do any better? |
@secretlondon I feel your pain. Five days and counting for me too. |
Edward Tufte, yesterday: “The way science was done before Galileo was people sitting around in armchairs speculating.” |
Edward Tufte, yesterday: “Users have no natural interest in operating systems. Any interest is unnatural.” |
At Edward Tufte course in San Francisco. |
Being at #uds without a working notebook is ... frustrating. |
Wondering what was said in Fosscamp’s “UI in 2020” session. |
Fell asleep about 6pm, woke hungry at 3am, no room service, and nothing nearby is open. D’oh. |
Bored-looking Google security guards are ensuring #fosscamp attendees don’t go where they shouldn’t. |
#fosscamp messaging session: Led by Mozilla’s Dan Mosedale. Thunderbird needs help with OS integration. Working on easier account setup. |
@garrett But every tweet has its own page, fraught with zero context. It’s like http://overheardinnewyork.com/ but with names attached. |
@secretlondon Absolutely, CinePaint in Ubuntu. I’d love to do my image editing in a program not named after a cripple. |
#fosscamp digital media session: Led by Songbird’s Stephen Lau. Spreadsheet of songs gets boring once you have thousands. What else to do? |
@newz2000 Most importantly, to be Ready for the Enterprise, computers need to constantly forget exactly how you like your tea. |
My near-new MacBook is running off mains power, but the battery isn’t charging. Same happens with someone else’s power adapter. Not happy.... |
#fosscamp UI experiments session: How can developers publish experimental software, so people can try it without borking their systems? |
#fosscamp paint/photo-editing session: Gimp has its own interface direction. Krita follows KDE. CinePaint aims for Photoshop familiarity. |
