Reg reader unlocks secrets of LHC restart

(LHC = Large Hadron Collider)

I found this interesting:

Chris has now created an “unofficial” LHC portal with links to all the various fascinating CERN webpages, which are at the moment so little known.

In a superb twist, Chris tells us that the main users of the LHC Portal so far are in fact CERN personnel, who evidently find it the handiest way of navigating around their own websites. The portal is now linked to from at least one of CERN’s internal sites.

Remember, the World Wide Web was created to help people at CERN manage their documentation.

One of my favorite Mac programs is OmniDazzle. When it’s on, I always know where my mouse pointer is.

Earlier this week I upgraded VMWare Fusion to version 3. Unfortunately, now I can’t have OmniDazzle on while I’m using Fusion. For some reason, when you first start a VM in Fusion you have to click in the window (or press command-G) before input is sent to the VM guest, and with OmniDazzle on this doesn’t work. Well, if you click four or five times one of them will eventual get through, but then Fusion switches back immediately to “you must click in the window” mode.

So now I’m getting in the habit of turning off OmniDazzle whenever I launch Fusion. Bummer.

(I wrote this last week, but apparently clicked “save” instead of “publish”.)
