Max Raabe & Palast Orchester in Glassalen, Tivoli, Copenhagen (DK) | ★★★★★ Excellent spectacle, great sound, great show.
$ lsb_release --description Description: Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 (wheezy) $
Only problems were updating Dovecot configuration, Apache segfaulting (solved by moving a website from mod-perl to mod-fastcgi), and ImageMagick mangling some graphs while cropping (solved by adding '-colorspace rgb').
Debian rules. That is all.
Update: Also, Dovecot now expects/keeps email in ~/mail instead of ~/Mail.

Since I bought my first "smartphone", I have wanted a count down function in the clock application.
When I checked my phone this morning, there was an update waiting - and after upgrading from Android 4.1.1 to Android 4.2.1, the clock has built in count down!
Oh, how easy cooking pasta will be in the future :-)

Do see Amanda Palmer tell the story about the Eight Foot Bride and the future of music.
Interestingly her talk touches upon some of the same keywords as the (apparently an internet sensation I missed in 2010) talk The power of vulnerability by Brené Brown.

Since I replaced my Mac Mini in the role as jukebox with a Raspberry Pi I went looking for a powered USB hub, because the Raspberry Pi didn't provide enough juice to run the USB harddrive that I store my music on.
Today I got a Conceptronic 4 Ports Powered USB 2.0 Hub (C4USB2 V3) - it works great so far, it even powers the Raspberry Pi, so I don't need a separate power supply for the Pi itself.
Woohoo!
Update: Ok, the harddisk just fell off, so I'll try using the separate power supply for the Raspberry Pi, and see if that makes a difference.

E. Munch at Aros, Aarhus (DK) | ★★★★★☆ Well layed out exhibition and very interesting paintings and prints. Go see it (ends February 17)!
It looks like there might be a genetic reason for not liking coriander: "Cilantro as a matter of taste".
I don't like the taste of coriander. I wonder if I have that SNP (mutation).
Somebody make me a table top household sequencing machine!

I really like npr.org's (new?) webdesign. The frontpage perhaps a little too BBCish, but the other pages: nice! xrl.us/bn8nuv
I was reminded of Jerry Seinfeld's bit about how everything is 'up' to children, while reading Calvin and Hobbes: "Wake up, get up...".
I guess stealing^Wbeing "inspired" by Calvin and Hobbes is nothing to be ashamed of.
(The Seinfeld show was recorded in 1998, C&H ended in 1995.)
