I figured I’d test out the CUDA 2 release for OS X, see what it was capable of, all that. As far as I’m aware my iMac with its 8800GS should be supported, at least partially. Alas, while the SDK & toolkit are somewhat simple to install, none of the apps run out of the… Read more
Well, the moving stuff has begun, which has me running around in circles changing addresses and trying to organise stuff. That combined with on-and-off illness the last week or so (nothing much to worry about; good old stress and dehydration for the most part) took out nearly three whole days. Yay.

Rob poked me me earlier today with some suggestions for the infamous Cairo -> Melbourne route, which got me looking into it a bit more. Long story short, I did actually find a route, via Singapore Airlines, for something like $850. Much more reasonable. However, when I add all this up, I’m still looking at… Read more
