RE Closing and opening the project file - not sure what you mean here. If you came back to your desk, the moment you moved the mouse it would start tracking again and it would be tracking the document in the window that was active - so yes, if you were scrolling around, it would track that time to that project. An ethernet enabled kettle sounds awesome. The perfect solution for knowing how long you spent making tea. Why don't you invent this, then we can co-author a protocol to communicate with Lapsus? Synaptic Mishap was my flatmate's suggestion, as that seemed to sum me up. @PeteB Thanks for the comment, Pete – nice to hear from you again.

Otherwise it looks great, good luck. Well done at the pharmacy. Is synaptic mishap how you get your ideas? All the best Pete B.

Windows is a terrible OS that has nothing to do with any of my ideas. But it's true that Microsoft seemed to actually ask some people what they thought this time around. It's just a shame they couldn't have made in anything more than "not as bad as Vista". Although that would have been difficult... I claim full ignorance.
