It wasn't too long ago i worked long hours in removals. It still remains the only job (among quite a few) i've had that day to day I happily felt something was achieved and didn't go home drained. [edit] I've been working as an EE/SE for the last 4 years.

404ing already. Anyone with a mirror/cache?

regomodo | 13 years ago | on: There is no better battery (2008)

Which is a bit moot because, going by the trend, it's not until ~ the year 2220 that batteries will equal petrol for energy density by weight.

regomodo | 13 years ago | on: E-Ink Android phone promises a week long battery life

For camping surely an old nokia will do? I keep one, which isn't much bigger than a mars bar, for this purpose and the battery lasts for ages.

I graduated 5 years ago with a maxed 2K overdraft. Last year I went to the bank to reduce the limit and the nice lady informed me I hadn't been paying interest the whole time on it, she promised to not to tell.

regomodo | 13 years ago | on: Startup Myths – I shall not be fooled again by gurus
