Apologies for the lack of a short and snappy title but I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to find out why ptpcamerad kept relaunching every time I killed the process – one option was to run this command in the background: while ; do; kill -9 $(ps aux | grep “[p]tpcamera” | awk ‘{print…

Let’s start with the bad, I woke up this morning all ready to head off to work and found that my scooter not only has a flat front tyre but also a flat back tyre as well. I guess the saving grace being that I can work from home which meant it was a giant…

One more day to go – working at the moment (Saturday) then one more day (Sunday) before the weekend. Although it isn’t everyone’s cup of tea I love working Wednesday to Sunday and having Monday/Tuesday off for my weekend because having two week days off gives me the ability to chase up errands that need…

Only another three days to go before I am officially on annual leave for two weeks. I’ve decided that this year rather than waiting up until 5am then try to watch WWDC as a complete zombie resulting in almost 90% of what was said ended up being forgotten (assuming I didn’t fall asleep while it…

Well, that was a quick weekend but no rest for me – back to work on Wednesday and looking forward to the two week break in around two weeks time but in the mean time I’m keeping busy with all the changes at work. The most exciting part about the change is the potential of…
