Now, this is interesting. Apparently, the deeply faithful lady who is suing for the right to wear her chastity ring is the daughter of two of the organisers of the programme. Their database isnt registered with the Information Commissioner and they have an evangelical PR man. And one of their prominent promoters is a former lingerie model turned asexual, who seems to have a history making obscene phone calls. What comes next is amazing, and I don't want to spoil the surprise - take a read. For those of you in the UK, it involves the 'NF'. Go read it. I love this kind of dirt digging.

Lifehacker has a guide to installing Subversion on your machine. Once you've installed Subversion, I'd recommend using Eclipse. It works beautifully with SVN. TextMate looks like it has nice support for SVN too (but if you are using a Mac, you have SVN installed anyway!). 2007-06-28T22:38:06ZUntitled entry permalink

My friend Andrew has published an article on the Labour deputy leadership and their views on state/church. 2007-06-28T22:36:38ZUntitled entry permalink

uTorrent is coming to Mac. I'm really not sure about OS X torrent clients. Azureus is feature-packed but bloated and ugly, while Transmission and Xtorrent are not really powerful enough to be useful. uTorrent is a beautifully elegant little Windows torrent client - it's the little torrent client that could! That's exactly what Mac software should be - feature-packed and beautiful. That's why I have bought CSSEdit, Interarchy and will buy TextMate when the free trial expires. 2007-06-28T22:33:16ZUntitled entry permalink

This OS X error message is silly, but I think I am paying attention. Just because langauge is bad doesn't mean it's not understandable. That's not to say it should not be better. I guess the answer would be to have "Allow" and "Do not Allow" as choices and rephrase the question as "Do you wish to allow the update version of Whatever.app access to your Keychain?". That doesn't then say anything about updating the Keychain. 2007-06-28T09:21:55ZUntitled entry permalink

I am a , an , like to code in and noodle about with and the . I also have a BA in philosophy from London, and am in preparation for an MA. My philosophical interests are in Victorian-era German philosophy, Kierkegaard, Robert Nozick, hermeneutics and current approaches to the demarcation problem in the philosophy of science. Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.
