Tesco’s so call new self checkouts :D

Ok I went pass this Tesco metro where they had new self service system, since I like this type of things I thought 2 give it a try. bought 2
pain au chocolates and took it near it. it will ask you to scan it or find the item from it’s menu, I some how I manage to find it in their 29 pence, and then it’s ask to put inside the bag. that’s where the trouble started. I think it’s monitoring the weight of the bag to assume the items r inside the bag, as pain au chocolate is weightless. it didn’t tell the computer as it’s in the bag so it didn’t let me do any thing lol, I have to call some one to sort it out 4 me, even for her it wasn’t easy she took nearly 15 mins to scan 2 pain au chocolate 😀

next time I’m only going to human checkouts 😀

downloaded Internet Explorer 7

well no different than the RC 1, and the runones page doesn’t seems to be working busy I guess, I don’t know a new thing call clear type. It’s gone confuse many users and no file edit menu etc, and some said it’s come with yahoo toolbar but I didn’t see it
side note using firefox RC 3 to post this wonderful browser. no way me moving away from it. 🙂

Rolling on dedicated server

My ex host is just pain full. As my earlier post, just moved it to this. I still can’t move my din100.net domain, as I need to move lot of data and some sub domains pointing 2  some of my private servers. So gone stick with din100.com for the time.

Hope it’s fast 4 all u lot 🙂

Time for a sever upgrade

Well, time for me to move to a better server, my current host just painful. They were cheap and good at the time(thats few years ago) . But now it’s just over subscribed. And changed all the php setting very restrictive 🙁 .   I thinking to move this with a dedicated server I do my testing on. Most of the time its does noting. So I might make use of it.

May be a another blog software. But wp doing the job fine but a change will be good I guess,  may be not .  1st the server move and see how this works.
