Next weekend I’m moving into a flat on my own; a flat with just myself for company. This will be the first time I’ve lived on my own. I’ll have a whole two rooms and a bathroom to myself! Like a real adult person and everything.
At first I was a little worried about the prospect of living on my own. What if I got lonely? What if I find that I am an annoying flatmate? Will it all feel very empty as I’m used to living in a single, cluttered room?

Being an atheist means being atheistic, that is, not taking a theistic view point. This does not mean one doesn’t take a religious viewpoint — though I don’t take one — but that one doesn’t agree with the notion of an omnipotent, omnipresent being. In ordinary life, a disagreement with another viewpoint isn’t generally a cause for decrying the holders of the other viewpoint as stupid, more often it is an invitation for a reasoned debate on the subject (at least, amongst reasonable people).
In a very interesting twist to the continuing DRM soap opera, this week Apple and EMI announced that they will be offering EMI’s entire selection of songs on the iTunes music store in a both a higher quality and unencumbered by Apple’s FairPlay DRM (and at a higher price). This is a very important milestone in digital music. For the first time, major label music will be available to purchase digitally without DRM spoiling the experience.
I use the Document Map feature of Word all the time as we work on quite large documents at work. I have Word set up so the document map is always shown. A couple of days ago, however, I opened up the Thumbnail sidebar also present in Word. I quickly decided that, for my purposes, the thumbnail sidebar was useless and changed back to the document map instead. Incredibly annoyingly, now Word opened the thumbnail view every time I started Word, no matter how many times I changed to the document map.
