(hairy) arse!
Check in semi-regularly and have a thread or two to add but too busy with work. :(
I would check in more often, but I'm too busy getting the preparations for Teh Forum Awards 2007 sorted out. Takes time, y'know? Had been planning on getting PWC involved, but after the Oscars, I think they might be a bit shambolic, and we don't want that, do we?
I still pop by occasionally but I'm trying to live my life according to the idea that it's pointless saying anything unless what you have to say is interesting.
Which it usually isn't.
And I find it easier to deal with my moodiness/depression by never talking about it and screwing it into a tiny ball of frustration and then storing it in some deep dark corner of my psyche while avoiding people who might, conceivably, be bothered about me.
But we do miss you being in here (YJ)..
'lo. I pop in every few months but I've just added Teh to my startup tabs in Chrome, so will be here a lot more now. Been busy, got married, had a daughter (that hurt), lots of adulting, work etc. Glad to see so many familiar usernames.
As everyone else is meandering down Memory Lane... I joined the PCF Forum after installing Steve Guntrip's Doorz 3000 explorer.exe-replacement shell from the cover-disc and wanted to find out more. Or maybe wanted to change it back, I forget. It was very yellow.
I think I earned 5 dragon points when that was a thing. They were a lot harder to redeem for goods and services than the tremendous artwork would lead you to believe.
I met Xenophon once, like IRL, he made excellent tea, and we discussed why mint was considered to be a fresh smell. We eventually mooted the concept of bacon-flavoured toothpaste.
Excellent! I really feel this could be a great place again :)
5 dragon points? I think that means you get to peek up Simon's kilt.
A bit of a dust and a vacuum and Teh will be good as new.
Congrats on the offspring, the missus and I were following William's surgeries on Facebook practically in tears. The phrase "you won't know until you're a parent" really is a truism.
Looks like you're driving the old paraffin budgies now too. You should start a thread about that! #MoarThreads
Hallo. I'm still here, too. I just don't have much to say, and I know fuck all about electronics and Raspberry Pis and such, which is what a lot of the chat seems to be about.
Anyway, still doing stuff. Living in sunny/windy/rainy Auckland in New Zealand. Fixing networks by day, and generally doing that by night too (God damn those out-of-hours jobs). Weekends generally involve bemoaning the lack of whitewater within a four hour drive, and having to make do with sea kayakking or climbing a local volcano instead.
I met Xen, too, at least once. Lovely chap, he was. Right up until I refused a cup of tea. That was awkward.
