  1. My phone's not connecting to Vodafone at the moment. Doing a "search network" only gives me 3, O2, T-mobile and Orange. That probably means the reception mast in this area is dead. Don't bother to ring/txt me, guys.


  2. If you've upgraded to FireFox 2.0.0.5, your LJLogin needs to be updated as well. You can do this by going to the FireFox add-ons on the menu and then click "find updates".


  3. LJ makes a second attempt at clarifying, after the flood of comments to their previous post, that they aren't banning underage pr0n, just badly written underage pr0n. (Badfic will now be deleted and badficcers banned? \:D/?)

    (Dear flist, please, chill. I thought we all know by now LJ always takes about 5 attempts to say anything they're trying to say, and another 10 before they correct and recorrect themselves enough. There's no need to scream bloody murder just yet.)


  4. Still making Rikkai plushies. Now I look at the notyet!Oshitari and Atobe and they look really crap, so I'll just abandon those and make new ones. I suppose that means I'm getting better at this. When it comes to selling to the greater public (if I do get orders!) the price will have to go up, though, because the materials I now use are better and more expensive. And crap, I really don't like making clothes, they're so hard to make and I can't find the right materials. Can I just make nekkie plushies?


  5. *sits on hand and waits for DL4* =/ Come onnnnnnnnnnnn.


  6. I want a really small, lightweight, wifi-enabled laptop that I can travel with. =/

2. Oh, woot. I spent a good part of yesterday evening flailing about the extension not working anymore. ;_;

3. Yes, it appears that people tend to get overexcited whenever LJ says anything these days. :/

2. I was all WTF when it didn't work this morning, but since I only upgrade from 1.x to 2.x recently (yes, I know...) and had the same problem, I thought that'd be the way to solve it. XD

3. I just refuse to pop veins over LJ politics. I do think it's low, though, to make this sort of announcement when the HP fandom population has gone on hiatus for the new book.

One of these days, someone insane is going to take LJ to court...

2. But I tried yesterday and it didn't work. ;_; So I just turned off the extension for the time being. I'm glad it was sorted out so quickly...

3. Indeed. Regarding HP fandom though: if they want to go on hiatus, it's their problem. They know they're going to miss things, they make that choice. This is one level on which I don't expect the LJ team to cater to fandom. As far as I'm concerned, they can make their announcements whenever they want.

That someone would have to be really insane. O_O

2. They probably did solve it last night!

3. It is their choice. But somehow I think someone on the LJ team might have said "let's announce this when the largest fandom isn't around!" and thought he was being really clever. =/ Kind of like how goverment minister announce things when natural disastors are all over the news, so that it gets covered up/not listened to...

2. *nodnod*

3. I don't doubt that it was deliberate, but I can't blame them for it. It's basic tactics, after all. And anyway, I suspect the HP fandom as a whole of being too immersed in Potterwank for the next few weeks to pay attention to details like the TOS. >_>

...the strange thing being that, for example, my department doesn't actually make any major education announcements over the school holidays, because we'd be criticised for burying them even if it was just a matter of practical timing. I've been known to refuse to put things out until after Christmas for the same reason.^^

And yes, I suspect LJ timed it on purpose, given the little bombshell they were having to drop about fic.

Several people on my flist were freaking over it, but honestly I can't manage a reaction more than "Eh. Here we go again."

Probably should update my ficblog just in case though. :D

I'm going to try to LJArchive my fic comm too....

I'm not too worried since I write all my fic using Google Docs and the likelihood I'd be TOS'd by Google is highly unlikely, but I did most of an update this morning and will finish it shortly.

*puts on Macvangelist hat*

Boot Camp, which comes with all new Apple computers, allows you to run both Mac OS X and Windows.

It amuses me that I've seen more talk about Firefox expanding and the need for an ljlogin upgrade then I have about Harry Potter in the last two days. It's fun.


And I'm not too concerned about LJ because they've stated they won't go actively searching for them so it's only if you get reported. Though more clarification about how they will look at locked posts would be nice but other then that, I feel they are doing their best to do what they want to do and still make LJ happy. Will they succeed? Only time will tell I guess.

Because the HP people have gone into hiding! XD

Whatever they end up doing, I can't change. There are enough people who share my views who are commenting to them anyway. So it's just a matter of sitting back and see...

ANYTHING! I was thinking about going to see Joseph, but I might be too lazy/not have time.

Also, I discovered a maybe yakiniku place in London. Near the shop that used to have Yagyuu Genichirou. Only it was Korean, but it was YAKINIKU!!!

It'd be difficult to get tickets anyway, since summer holiday just started and the show only opened like a day ago.

So should I meet you at Leicester Sq at around....?

What day is better for you? Tomorrow? 3? 4? Earlier? Later? I have, like, no schedule, but there was a few things I wanted to do earlier in the day, nothing major, though.

4 is better, I kinda want to sleep for a longgggg time and then do some housework. XD Outside the cinema as usual?
