Spicy

Entering your personal Space
Bought a new pair of earbuds: sony’s MDR-EX70LP. They rest completely within your ear-canal, but are the most comfortable ones I’ve used (and sound very nice (for earbuds ;))). But rather expensive… :p
Paranoid about Fire
The strike of the English firemen is starting to p*ss me off: (I’m not saying they shouldn’t strike, but…) University buildings have been closed after 18:00 and on weekends so that you can’t get any computing work done out of hours, and worst of all, we’ve had to cancel many Anime-Society meetings… We might even have to cancel our end-of-term quiz, if the new strike (from wednesday) goes ahead… 🙁
Ramune
went to “oriental city” in london (previously called “yohan plaza” (sp?)). had a good time, a good meal, and finally got to play w/ my own bottle of ramune. but how on earth does one open it without making it all fizzy??? ^_^
Adjusting ClearType
I’ve written a web-page / script (using Microsoft’s ClearType control) that you can use to adjust ClearType without being online (mainly because my Compaq TFT8030 uses BGR pixel order instead of RGB, there is no documentation on how to set that and my computer is not connected to the ‘net). You’ll need WinXP SP1 to use the BGR pixel-order, but you can set the anti-aliasing type and ClearType contrast on pre-SP1 machines. Get it here.
Geneon
I want Pioneer to hurry up releasing “Mahoromatic”. Hope they pick up season 2 as well… ^_^
And while they’re at it, pick up “Haibane-Renmei (Charcoal Feathers Federation)” (if they haven’t already) and release it!
