@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social Just an "only in #Cambridge" everyday life.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social In the UK it'd be "Have you got a postcode for that?" But sometimes you get operators who do know what they're doing. Like the last time I called 999: Them: "Which service do you require?" Me: "I don't know - there's a cow in the river." Them: "OK, I'll call the pinder. Which bridge is it near?" Me: [names bridge] Them; "Thanks, I'll get onto it, bye." (It's not that rare for a cow to get into the Cam. The pinder is the guy who knows how to persuade the cow to move to somewhere it can be rescued.) #Cambridge

While tidying out a cupboard, I discovered that I still have thee boxes of author copies of books: the first and second edition of the Objective-C Phrasebook and the Cocoa Programming Developers Handbook. The first edition of the ObjC book and the Cocoa book cover pre-ARC Objective-C, but most of the examples still work (and now a lot will work with GNUstep or other open-source implementations of OpenStep / Cocoa). Does anyone have a sensible suggestion about what to do with them? Any schools or computer clubs have a need for a load of programming books? I assume charity shops don't especially want around 20 copies each of three books. Otherwise, I'll probably end up slowly distributing them among little free libraries. (Any friends of the Milton Road library: I see they have a book sale tomorrow, do they want to try selling some of them?) #Cambridge #Books

First time alighting at Cambridge South station today. Biggest change to my commute in 15 years 😀. Very new, very shiny. Flexi season ticket did let me through the barrier. #Trains #Railways #Cambridge

Having just found out from @diyelectromusic@mastodon.social and @rc2014@oldbytes.space about the #Z80 at 50 event at the Centre for Computing History in #Cambridge on the weekend of the 18th/19th July... If you weren't able to get a ticket for #EMFCamp, which is the same weekend, this might be an interesting alternative? https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/77032/Z80-at-50-Saturday-18th-Sunday-19th-July-2026/ #retrogaming #retrocomputing Edit: remove bonus "X" as it is a celebration of the Z80 CPU not just the ZX80

Hey there #BikeTooter my friend Barney is leading out another edition of his #Vintage cycle rally in #Cambridge on Saturday 9th May. A perfect opportunity to get dressed up and bring out some of your #cycling esoterica. There are normally prizes/recogniton for the best outfit, oldest bike (1896 last year, I believe). There'll be a planed, mostly traffic free, route with opportunities for refreshments along the way. Informal fancy dress fun on a bike, come along if you can, all are welcome!
