Another lazy day...

Was too apathetic to get up, so stayed in bed until around one. Then I had to do mundane stuff like shop for food and do obscene amounts of Laundry. Oh, what fun. Added a few new pics to my LiveJournal and noticed that a couple more people have friended me (waves). After that, I got down to doing some more writing - had to forcibly restrain one of my characaters from referring to himself as a t00b (whatever that means), so have clearly been reading too much LJ. Watched WarGames while I ate tea - another surprisingly good movie which I haven't watched for years. More CD ripping and writing and writing after that - noticed that have just passed 15,000 words, so about 1/5 done. Unfortunately, expect to run out of plot ideas in about 5-10,000 words time. Darn. Wrote LiveJournal entry. Went to bed. (OK, that last part is still in the future).

Absolutely Nothin'

I got WarGames on DVD (£7.99 on Amazon, the have the VHS for £2 less). Definitely one of the better hacker flicks - actual wardialing! Some of the tech is less plausible, but I'll let 'em off for dramatic license.

It's actually a LEGO® cam that you can build into your LEGO robots along with some basic vision recognition stuff. You can of course use it as a basic webcam as well, not that I ever have. I have no desire to be the next JenniCam.

Not sure what the TLA YKW means (hey, It's Monday Morning), but if you're referring to what I think you're referring to, then dinna fash yersel' - if you get the chance to have a look, then great, if not, that's fine too.

YKW = You-Know-Who, or in this situation, You-Know-What. And evidently you do know what. :-)
