I think that I may finally be living in the future - "Put down that wrench!"

http://nmg.livejournal.com/184215.html

Put down that wrench! I think that I may finally be living in the future. August 6th, 2012. I've just followed the landing of a spacecraft on another planet from the comfort of my armchair. 2012-08-06 08:28 am (UTC). I suspect we will be the last generation to think of tv, phones and computers as separate devices. Your boys will take this stuff for granted. 2012-08-06 07:42 pm (UTC). 2012-08-07 08:19 am (UTC). Death to the mouse. Horny handed sons of toil. Not quite rocket science.

Role Models in Science Fiction - "And his trails do not fade."

http://elseware.livejournal.com/82200.html

Role Models in Science Fiction - And his trails do not fade. Role Models in Science Fiction. Oct 14th, 2009 02:24 pm. I've been considering the lack of scientist/engineer role models in current TV science fiction. This is in response to some discussions about how TV sci-fi is now just good-looking people kicking ass (all fine and good), but it doesn't inspire the next generation. I think the strongest science/engineer characters (as role models for future generations) are currently in. Star Gate and Star...

Naming Cats is Easy, Naming Blogs is Hard: They Made Me Do It

http://naminghard.blogspot.com/2011/07/they-made-me-do-it.html

Naming Cats is Easy, Naming Blogs is Hard. Elizabeth Zwicky's more computer-relevant thoughts. Saturday, July 30, 2011. They Made Me Do It. Security is a favorite excuse; "We can't do that, because of security". This is usually at least sort of true, but it is rarely entirely true. I present another rant in the form of an extended metaphor. It could finally be that the vet said "The problem here is that you are not being a responsible dog owner; if you let the dog run loose unsupervised and it bites peop...

This means nothing to me - "Put down that wrench!"

http://nmg.livejournal.com/183445.html

Put down that wrench! This means nothing to me. March 19th, 2012. Next month, just after Easter, I have a business trip to Vienna for a project meeting (hopefully - the project coordinator has *still* not sent the details for a planned meeting that's now less than a month away), and so. And garklet2 (WINYOLJ) are coming over to make a short break of it. We've been trying to enthuse the. With the idea of the trip, but he's currently being quite grumpy and negative. They go in bins. We saw it in a film.

Kitchen clutter - "Put down that wrench!"

http://nmg.livejournal.com/184756.html

Put down that wrench! September 24th, 2012. Passing on memes is like posting new content, isn't it? Here's one doing the rounds:. Bold the ones you have and use at least once a year, italicize the ones you have and don't use, strike through the ones you have had but got rid of. There are additions. I wonder how many pasta machines, breadmakers, juicers. Deep fat fryers, egg boilers, melon ballers, sandwich makers, pastry brushes. Crepe makers, electric woks, miniature salad spinners. And there's no cockt...
