My friend Laurence Pitt (and one of his friends) are driving this delightful Mini Metro from London to Prague. Via the Alps.
It’s all for “Charidy Mate” – so go give a few pounds – http://www.justgiving.com/beryl2prague
I’ve been asked a few times which tools I use to build the panoramic pictures.
I use Hugin with autopano-sift for control point generation. I also use enblend for smooth blending.
There is a great manual online now at the Hugin Wiki – http://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin
I spent some time this morning on the forums for the ZCM open beta.
A frequent comment is regarding downloading the ZCM ISO – it’s 4GB in size.
I recommend testing the md5 hash – I use Digest IT 2004.
I wrote last year about the 3M Privacy Filters; I’ve not worked with my laptop and confidential data on a flight in over three years.
I recently purchased the filters for my team; I must say I am impressed. They are unobtrusive – and really work.
Somehow my PGP passphrase got corrupted; there’s no way back.
PGP support tried – but my brick of a laptop needs a rebuild.
I was disappointed at how seemingly fragile the passphrase piece is; the support guy at PGP said he’d never seen it before.
Hmm.
Back to a new build; if it happens again I’ll be somewhat upset..
Somehow the SATA drive in my new Thinkpad is screwy. The surface test is good; but PGP Whole Disk Encryption doesn’t like it. It doesn’t recognise my passphrases.
I’m back up and kinda running on my ‘old’ ATA drive in my new laptop; it’s faster but the drive is slow and I’ve lost a little data.
I’m going to get a USB-SATA enclosure and see if I can restore the drive.
