//twitter.com/47teen/statuses/433704852”> @bootload …I’m fascinated. I don’t know much about SVN, so what would you suggest as an alternative? BZR?

@heygabe: yup. Nice and simple VNC client for OS X.
feeling surprisingly productive today, with TeXShop + MacFusion + Chicken of the VNC
now going to be late for class…
OK, all is well. Still, I really hope that Apple is not going the way of M$, making rushed-out system updates with insufficient testing.
@raster: no can do. Mine does it every time. Installing combo update now over firewire…
@raster: It said it failed, but now my MBP is close to bricked. Booting it causes an endless loop. (I can tell because of the fans.)
just been screwed over by the 10.4.11 update…possible fix: use the combo updater

will have to get used to flock’s tab-switch keys.
just got over a major personal fear. +400 XP!
trying macfusion and considering replacing cyberduck…
@heygabe: Windows is the leading cause of dead internets.
@AngryRabbit: I turned on IM updates…
falling in love with @dlanham’s autumn desktops again
@AngryRabbit: It’s more like finding a way through CAPTCHA. http://tinyurl.com/c9662
quite satisfied with adium + growl as a twitter client, actually.
@neko congrats.
how to fix MBP DVD “unsupported” message: use Disk Utility to repair your HD’s permissions.
ditching twitterriffic for IM for now
figured out the speed issue: a bad wireless router
having ISP issues…suspicious of bait-and-switch speed throttling
sad that Shiira development has been slacking, and that it handles application/xhtml+xml incorrectly
@overshard, @bunneh: I make it a point to find a book to go with my coffee.
