Dave, completely Off Topic. What was the new release RaspberryPi OS you mentioned the other day?
About to go pick up 2 new 512MB Model B to make OpenELEC to access Movies and TV shows from NAS using XBMC. That will leave my original 512MB Model B to piss about with Wheezy or whatever it is.
The older 2 x 256MB Model boxes will probably find use as SSH targets at a customer or relatives place to allow secure remote access without having to have a full size box running.

"The other day"?
I can't think of any posts I have made about RasPi recently, the last must have been a few weeks ago The only thing I remember talking about lately was the GertBoard IO module for RasPi.
I just pick up my RasPi OS from the usual source: http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads[^].
The NOOBS release was updated just last week.

Must have been someone else. They mentioned a new version of Wheezy (or maybe something else) and said they were looking forward to getting to play with it when they got back home.
I thought it was you waiting to get back to shore. It may have been weeks agoi, but didn't my memory was that sh*t.

It was Eve Alpha RasPi wireless platform I was planning on playing with last time home. Never managed though, too much other stuff got in the way, like kids being on school mid-term holidays and having to keep them occupied!
That and the gertboard.

For those of you who's Googled by the keyword "architect sexy"[^] - it seems to reconfirm that architects really are sexy. After all, Google represents the collective knowledge of human being.
Then, why are we not? (I guess I understand this - they make things that are tangible)
So if you make tangible things it makes you sexy?

and any sex that thinks is male or female, is not.

Most architect (the building types) I know are good looking (both men and women).
They have a strange secy mix between an artist and a scientist.
I'd rather be phishing!

It's a huge generalization of course, but the market would have been quite different if a certain mister Gates would have been a chick-magnet.

Under no circumstances can I be even remotely considered to be sexy. My code, on the other hand, exudes an allure that causes most women to swoon.

A fart, if done just right (i.e., the noxious gases that emanates from under my dogs tail - dear lord, how can such a small creature produce an odour that fills a room like that), also exudes something to cause most women to swoon.

Gawd I wish I knew.
When Dij was a kitten, he was really tiny - he comfortably fit in a single hand.
But the smells he could "produce" - seemingly at will - filled the room with a noxious miasma that glued itself to your throat...

The last time I showed my code to a woman, I also thought she swooned.
Actually she had just fallen asleep.

In my case it was the 14 goto statements in a short method that caused her to swoon. Apparently she misunderstood when someone had described me as being the "go to guy" in the group.

Perhaps in Hong Kong you aren't seen as sexy.
However in Europe geeks are major league sex symbols: we have to "Beat them off with a stick" and pretend ineptitude with anything electronic if we want a quiet drink...
