Great:

Also the support number they give on their contact page doesn’t work!
UPDATE: this number did work in the end. Thanks Smog for the reminder!
My new iPhone 3GS has issues. I think. The screen goes very dark every now and then (auto-brightness is not on BTW), the screen is very yellow and the camera just sucks – grainy, dark, out of focus. It simply cannot be this bad so it has to be an issue!
Not that happy with the camera so far!
The brighter photos are from the old 3G.
That’s The Western Flyer all ready for the off tomorrow. Heading to Seoul for the weekend.
Let’s see how these go down! Leungies:



I asked FMPMSPD what she thought of gay guys:

iPhone 3GS. They said 1-2 weeks – my initial delivery date was the 5th August.
But it just shipped! So happy I waited!
Arrives on Friday though, when I’m away. Booooo.
Via Google, some of the computer source code used during the Apollo 11 mission.
To commemorate this event the Command Module code (Comanche054) and Lunar Module code (Luminary099) have been transcribed from scanned images to run on yaAGC (an open source AGC emulator) by the Virtual AGC and AGS project.

So, remember the 1202 error that nearly caused the Apollo 11 landing to be aborted? No?
Well, the guidance computer on The Eagle Lunar Module was reporting errors. The 1202 being one of them. It meant the computer was trying to process too much information, due to the rendezvous radar being on when it didn’t need to be, resulting in an executive overflow. Jack Garman knew it wasn’t a problem and gave Gene Krantz the OK to continue the descent.

Hooray for the geeks!
Anyway … there’s the code:
# 31202 EXECUTIVE OVERFLOW-NO CORE SETS EXEC
I gotta read some more on this.

See!?
We spent an hour here being interviewed to see if they would let FMPMSPD back in to HK. They let her in for 7 days. No egg!
