Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

Prodded mail. Builders arrived around midday to start putting
joists into the attic. Played with pulseaudio - why is my audio muted
on boot ? dug into it more and more - interesting, pulse believes alsa
for it's very first set of defaults, and alsa is configured by udev,
and (hopefully) system install. I need to debug system install instead.
-
Solomon over briefly, for lunch to sign contract. Discussion
with builders to re-assure them that, in fact the metalwork &
pad-stone should fit exactly where it's drawn.

Pulled children's cartoons from archive.org for babes to enjoy on the
road trip to (near) Scotland tomorrow morning. Tried to build 'thoggen'
and was stunned to see sourceforge demanding form
filling with my life story before it would let me download the
source archive - what gives ? - it turns out that the list of
mirrors failed to load, and the form below was a Verisign advert -
amazing. What sort of security concious person enters their personal
details into an embedded advert ? and why hinder people from reading
your white-papers (makes no sense at all to me).
My content in this blog and associated images / data under
images/
and data/
directories are (usually)
created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under
the public domain, and/or if that doesn't float your boat a CC0
license. I encourage linking back (of course) to help people decide for
themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE,
Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International),
or anyone else.
It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
or fun.
