It's very easy though to procrastinate when in 'command' of a web browser. Removing the device removes the temptation. Typically I can be in the middle of something else, sit down in front of the laptop to quickly check the n

I can easily go a bit tab mad. And noticed this in myself ages ago. At work I vowed not to look at sites that weren't work related. And instead checked personal email/sites before or after work. I was more organised. I even u

Quiet contemplation. That thing you used to do when you got an early night, that may have helped your brain get into order, or possibly aroused the senses, and led to panic. My partner monopolises the main living space, and always switches

The home vs shop bought items rings true. I can make a bean burger without much effort. And I have a good idea what went into it. But if I buy one, I'm not sure how old the ingredients are, how long they have been stored and what ot

If I ever buy shop bought tomato pasta sauces, there is a flavour in most that repulses me. It's something I can't recreate with home cooking. So this post does make me think that it could be something like a flavour pack. I al

That's a shame. I was wondering if I could use a Pi0 with an old USB camera as a cheap IPCam.

Configuration can be a pain. Sane defaults help and smart UIs help not to mention good documentation. I've been playing with some software over the last week that has wiki for documentation and an active user forum with people willing

That's what I do. Once to get rid of food debris. Then start with toothpaste. Then floss, rinse, and a quick brush again with toothpaste. But sadly too little too late with my teeth. They are screwed. I rarely ate sweets as a chil

I was excited to find your robot brick layer link, but it didn't look that great. There was still a chap doing some of the finishing work sitting alongside. I prefer the idea of programming the robots, leaving the site, and then retu

Wood is a renewable and a carbon trap. On site, dirt is a good choice for a building material. You can also use it to bulk mass. You just need a digger and some grunt work. See building with rammed earth. I've a friend who has just

A bit of web history, mention some static site generators, end by saying their tool is the babel fish of static site generation.

Cheers, I have tried that, it might suit a symmetrical keyboard a little better or a tenkeyless, but the keyboard feels a little low still. And slightly wrong. It's the pointer that's also a pain. I recline with a laptop on my

I had such bad pains in my neck and shoulders that I had to lie down alot, and from that position I learnt how to touch type and use vim. I thought the position had some merit, and that a light recline might be good. About five years on a

Well that sounds better. But perhaps a poor choice of name. VisitorId might have been more appropriate.

Does she vocalise her deliberation? Or ask involve you in the opinion making? I love to be made a drink. And love a surprise, partly because it saves me having to make a decision.

From my limited knowledge of BrowserId, it feels slightly wrong to me to place my identity in the web browser. What happens if someone borrows my PC, or I have multiple identitiesL This is still a bit of a 'mare for me when swapping

Off topic: Pocket turned up in my Firefox. I don't even know what it is, and why it's there. It weirdly replaced my Readability icon. (Goes off to read). Okay so it's ReadItLater. Which I assume is something like Readabili

I wish there was a sandwich I'd like to eat, but there never is. Perhaps that's what it is. But yes I've been meaning to upgrade my laptop with an SSD for about a year, and still can't decide on size, make or model.

As a Brit, then yes I think most people would rather a renationalisation, even the Tories. But it's weirdly complex, because Network Rail is back under public ownership. So the infrastructure is backed and bailed out by the tax payer

I remember hearing or reading an article that said that suggested that making a choice/decision was tiring, and it pays to save your strength for important choices. Rather than deliberate over which beverage you are going to drink in

And they have their own brands: a basic and a finest. Less choice may be a win for them.

Other companies swamp you with choice. Hotpoint washing machines come in loads of different forms. And I'm sure for most people, they don't really care. I'm not quite sure about the logic behind this. Have you a better ch

I assume you are referring to the mathmatician. It's odd because reading what you said makes me think I'd rather a diversity of product types, but I care less about having more than one of each type. Having said that, Tesco stoc

To be honest, I get anxious when choosing a company to buy my rail ticket. Not to mention the whole horrible process of trying to find a suitable ticket. Splitting journey's etc, trying to work out the cheapest route etc. That'
