Yet another totally unexplainable, yet strangely addictive Japanese Flash game.

NaNaCa_Crash!
The word “Aerial” on the left is somehow important: when it’s blue you can press the blue arrow below the it… which will push you downwards. You get three goes at the red version – which gives you extra height.

Right – second time lucky.
It appears my server has been firewalled for the whole of this week – my shiny new NetGear DSLRouter is a bit too clever by half – and has a built-in firewall that cannot be turned off. I didn’t realise this until this morning.
D’oh!
Drop a comment if your the first here, and salve my tortured mind, would you?
Thanks,
Digs.

mmmm – new broadband…..

The static IP addresses took longer to allocate than usual – that’s why the site has been down longer than necessary.

Bulldog have contacted me and will install on Wednesday – so I’ll have to change DNS details then – which may take up to 2 or 3 days to propagate.
I’ll contact Easynet on Tuesday to let them know I’m still connected to them, so I should go dark after that.
See you after the change-over (I hope…)
(edit – changed days to be accurate.)

A Fascinating Video of a Demo shown recently.
Finally – Military commanders can plan missions just like in the Movies…

BT is offering better access & prices to the local-loop in an attempt to head off Ofcom’s threat of using the Enterprise Act to split the telco.
That’s good news.
Meanwhile – in related news, Bulldog still can’t provision my DSL order — five weeks after the order — because they are waiting for BT to open slots in the Bayswater exchange….
Which reminds me – I’ve got a dilemma for my three readers: Easynet haven’t disconnected my DSL yet (as you can see by reading this post) – even though the three month cancellation period has elapsed (and they sent me a three month bill instead of my normal annual bill.)
Do I ask them about it now, and probably lose my DSL, or wait until I get a definite provisioning date from Bulldog?
Knowing my luck – they’ll try and charge me another three months for not telling them, or something…

What happens when XCode goes mad and decides that certain letters are evil?

I know that code looks Greek to most people – but it’s not meant to look like that. Have a look at the pop-up menu in the toolbar called “Active Build Style” – it’s like a crossword puzzle. (It’s meant to say ‘Development’)
Most peculiar.
