deekoo 0x7D3 December 0x11: <%technical%> DO COME FROM (69) A valid statement in Intercal. Tasks for beforenextweek: Learn enough Scheme to add a fairly trivial feature to batchgimp. (which is a bunch of perl programs that write scheme programs to control gimp. Which'll be fun, as that means Lluzhionne will be able to do Gimp filters soonish...) Requisite Discoveries: OK, so I guess I'm *not* the only person who thought 'condition data data' would be easier on the parser than 'data condition data'. Disjointness-mania Going out, one thinks. Will one need one's purse? No? Then leave it home. Eight blocks out, one passes a box containing a brokenwinged avatar of what seems to be a Hindu diety (or possibly a syncretic angel) amongst Energy Rearranging Coils. Stuff all the Energy Rearranging Coils into one's pockets and go onward. Go a block further than you had originally planned after endpoint, no point in mind. The coils interact with the forces to produce a steady downward vectorpressure. And finding, found, a pair of computers that had been thrown out. P166 and 486DX, respectively. Not boxen I want to drag all the way through the subterranean passages leading to the cavern in which my base has been constructed. Thence begins the Quest for a Screwdriver-Equivalent. None of the plugs in my jacket will turn a screw; neither will my keys (which is just as well. Breaking one's front door key retrieving a bunch of old HDs is probably not a worthwhile tradeoff.). However, a 14.4 modem (The only card not screwed down.) turns out adequate, at least to get the netcard out so's I can then use it to take the metal plate off the modem's arse and bend that around to make a less-awkward jabby screwturner. Of course, when I finally do get the whole mess off, I find the coils have filled all the pocketspace. (Unless I want my pants falling off from gravitic excess, at least.).
