You know what drives me mad? "Happy Christmas". It's been driving me a bit nuts for a while now. Surely it's "Merry Christmas"? Cos otherwise how can you say, "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year"? Google agrees with me: Merry Christmas (661,000 results) vs. Happy Christmas (183,000 results). So stop it, advertising wankers. Stop it TV people. Stop it, annoying card makers. Merry is better. It means drunk.

Anyway, I'm off to see the family today, so I would imagine posting will be even more sporadic than normal over the next week or so. I hope you all have a good time visiting family and stuff. I'll be back online properly in a few scant days, no doubt busting at the seams with enthusiasm and turkey and ideas and vim. In the meantime, if you want to do something good in the world, why not donate to Oxfam US, Oxfam UK or to Stonewall. And if that's all a bit worthy for you and you've enjoyed the guff I've pumped out over the last hundred years, then why not buy me a present or something. Best wishes... xx Tom

Merry Christmas, Spymac!

Merry Christmas, Spymac! 12/25/2004 05:20 PM
On Spymac this Christmas, Forums are littered with missed gifts, Bamboozled, glossed-over wish lists With iPod minis and iTrips. For some, the tunes will be rocking, For others, megahertz clocking But what of all of those stockings With neither socks nor a dock nor The shocking bow-wrapped black box With a Power Mac peeking out from Under out of a bounty of wound-up frowns Not an ounce of astoundment, wow or surprise Decline in all shapes and sizes, Stifled cries and replies Of, “Oh, that’s not the right size? Should it have been bigger? White? Pink, blue or green? Did you want the red click wheel Or the new color screen?” It seems the holiday spirit Has gone the way of the Cube It’s presents now that we care about Instead of renewing The vows of tradition and family and love we hold dear, having replaced what were tidings with an endless frontier Of wrapping and ribbon And piles of debt, After two months of sweat There’s no time for regret, It’s Christmas, so let it Be, lest we forget it, If you got the wrong iPod There’s always Apple Store credit. Merry Christmas, from the Spymac News Team

A belated Merry Christmas

A belated Merry Christmas 12/29/2003 09:47 AM

I'm back to work after enjoying that most precious of things: a holiday without computers. Comment spam has been deleted, email spam has been saved in a special folder (for rapid training of bayesian classifiers in the future) and the few emails of actual importance have all been flagged for follow up. Oh, and my Mac's shipping date has slipped to the 32nd of January. If haven't received it by Macworld and Apple drop the price I'll be understandably upset.

Christmas 12/22/2003 11:25 AM
SCO is celebrating the end of one year and the start of the next with a new twist in its long, ever-changing, and never substantiated legal saber-rattling against IBM and all things Linux. In this latest turn, they have embraced the DMCA, claiming in a news release today that "Distribution of the copyrighted ABI code, or binary code compiled using the ABI code, with copyright management information deleted or altered, violates the Digital Millennium Copyright Act codified by Congress at 17 U.S.C. §1202. DMCA liability extends to those who have reasonable grounds to know that a distribution (or re-distribution as required by the GPL) of the altered code or copyright information will induce, enable, facilitate, or conceal an infringement of any right under the DMCA."

I got to Madrid okay yesterday, but, in the end, I couldn't get the modem connection to work properly... and in truth I didn't spend that much time with it (I fixed that a few minutes ago problems with a DHCP connection that required some fixed TCP/IP settings)...

... but now we're about to leave, so I'll be brief: Happy 2004 everyone!

PS: Digital life resumes tomorrow afternoon, after I get back to Dublin. :)
