@psidnell Ooopsie. One abiding memory of the ZX81 is unsticking the “DELETE” key using one of those spring-and-sucker jumping toys :)
@psidnell Nice keyboard, though, from what I remember.

@psidnell Microdrive!
@psidnell I went ZX81, Electron, BBC Master, Archimedes, then went to Uni and got onto big computers :)
@benjohnbarnes A JVC, from what I remember. Classic technology. And you should have seen the wallpaper in the downstairs loo.
@tsunimee 1983, I think. Might have been ’84.
@tsunimee If you think that’s OMG, you should have seen my *first* computer. But I don’t think I owned a camera back then.

Why is Skype using 100% of my CPU in order to just sit there, idle? Grr.
@timhayward I think I saw them supporting Camel once.
martingoode Looking for top resturant options around the Bath area …
@Narshada (e.g. this, which I’m putting together now, is a Twentyeleven Child, with just CSS changes and new images. devpop.net )
@Narshada …based on one of the latest ones provided by WP, e.g. Twentyeleven. You can do a lot just with the CSS.
@Narshada I’d say the best bet would be to go through the basics on the WP Codex, and if your theme is simple, then use a Child theme…
@Narshada It’s mostly knowing how to make web pages and understanding the template hierarchy codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hiera… and what hooks you need.
@Narshada Hrm. I mostly used this sitepoint.com/books/wordpres… but it relies on Thematic, which feels a bit long in the tooth now.
@Narshada Yeah. Jetpack installation wordpress.org/extend/plugins… says to log in with a .com account, so I think you need one to make it all work.
@Narshada …so I guess you need to do that in the self-hosted backend, then log in with the same .com account in the app.
@Narshada If you install the plugin, this is the first thing you see: pic.twitter.com/U9uc1gTK
@Narshada By the looks of it, Jetpack sends stats to .com, and the analytics is hosted there.
@ratsass I shall look out for you, Comrade.
@Narshada But now I’m just guessing. Hrm. Maybe I should try this jetpack thing…
@Narshada …to get an Akismet key, for example. Wonder if some of the stat stuff is provided by their service so you need both logins?
@Narshada Hrm. Must be Jetpack-specific, then. Some self-hosted things do need .com login, though; you always used to need one…
@ratsass And I will look out for… Er. Chairman Mao?
@Narshada I don’t use jetpack, but I do use the official iOS WordPress app with self-hosted WordPress. Does that help?
@ratsass Might see you there, then!
@hayles It’s the Latin for “with”, among er, other things. Used as a combination form, eg, a bedroom-cum-sitting room is a bedsit.
@hayles It seems it is real. But making Facebook Less Shit would require superpowers & the overthrow of capitalism, and I’m not up for that.

Hrm. Much as it seems unlikely that Facebook want to recruit me, these email headers look genuine. Maybe I’m losing my touch.
@Jorence Coolerama!

Aborting BTP lunch due to overexcited running toddlers. Hrm. Where to go instead..?
danoliver Hello, London. instagr.am/p/IL4KYcFT1y/
@Cookwitch Apparently, neither do I, even when it’s one of the few ones I like. *drinks more tea*
@Cookwitch Except it was bollocks! You can’t be 15 - 40 down, can you? Bah. Too early in the morning for me.
@utterben Damn you. *drools into paltry cornflakes*
@stroughtonsmith Wouldn’t that have been the abacus?
@mikeotaylor …and extra weight. Lucky to get in in under three hours. Pah. How’s you? Not seen you about much recently…
@mikeotaylor Hah! Sadly, it was a bad one for me. Glad I finished it, but second lap was a git due to lapses in training…
