On 22nd discussing logins in Feds - there are three kinds, the regular with the dialog, the automatic (assuming windows username is the same as inside the app) and another automatic (same user as last time on this machine). There was some confusion among the users, so we talked amongst ourselves (Jan and I) about how to document this on our wiki (hosted by George). Never managed to talk Laura into actually using this wiki, it was too complicated for her. And Feds 5.3.3.31 has been released for testing.
Did bunch of stuff on validation etc for Belrap. It's nothing complicated in there, just that there are so many fields with so many sets of similar names, my mind is buzzing after an hour of it.
So I'm 56 and Go is 32 now... We visited Lena, and she showed her some of her schoolwork. Her 3d somehow jumps out, it really feels in-depth. I know she employs the same tricks that painters always used, but wow - she's still in this preparatory class, still needs to pass the exam to qualify, and she does stuff like this. Picked our jaws off the floor and went to _pahuljica for dinner. Nice summer evening, perfect for sitting out.
On 24th had another exchange with Škrba about 26 vs 30 characters, and the ambiguity introduced when the šđžčć are haircut. This time he noted a case that I missed on sGradlj.com, that 'sala' doesn't mean only sala (hall, as in concert), genitive of salo (tallow), šala (joke) but also šala (genitive of šal, i.e. shawl). Duly noted and fixed on the spot.
Looking at opened tabs... First one is, as always, UA. Next, playing bejewelled2. Next, Facebuk aka fejs, where I was probably watching what videos of Raja has Nina posted, or perhaps the longer work by Ender on how to dismantle and reassemble the gear shift on his Honda VFR motorbike (still the same one he used to tether to a hook behind our backyard), with special emphasis on synchro rings. Then ppp and finally sGradlj.com with the case in point.
In status bar, AdBlockPlus, NoScript (as per advice of George), and FoxClocks showing time in the UK, Seattle, VBeach and India. These four timezones sufficed for more than 90% of my needs. Perhaps once or twice a year I'd have to be in sync from someone down under, which I'd usually do in my evening, their tomorrow morning.
Had lunch with dad on sunday. He brought another fluffy cake with artificial whipped cream from Brižita, had some wine from dad and mine's common partner (not at the same time, though, and I really think he was mentioned enough) and that was it.
