  1. @mshea Why would I have a cable subscription is everything I watch is through Roku, XBox, etc?
  2. Installed Oneiric. Ubuntu has the weekend to make itself useful, before I delete it with prejudice.
  3. So I'm "Lead Sysadmin" at #ReverseSpace, based on the idea that I 'control' the internal net, and protected streaming access last weekend.
  4. Too much food for not enough party. Need people to come over and have apps and Chili. Please call, I'll direct you in. 248 802 9711 Tyson's
  5. Still alive.
  6. @LetsTryScience My phone claims to be able to be a presentation remote by bluetooth. I have yet to see a bluetooth enabled present-kiosk.
  7. Awesome word I heard today: Enginerd. I hope someone applies this to me.
  8. @LetsTryScience: I don't think there are enough half-truths.
  9. I've been learning about openpgp. Now I want a smart card so I can put my A subkey on it and be able to SSH into other computers.
  10. @mshea So are you going to buy more dwarven forge with your winnings?
  11. I bought Spook Country by William Gibson and World War Z at the McLean book fair for $10. Awesome!
  12. Yes: http://controversy.wearscience.com/design/timecube/ Four 24-hour days per day! A cube has 4 sides.
  13. I'm fired up. I'm ready to go
  14. I now have a keypair. 4096 sounds like enough for the immediate future, eh?
  15. Coming to you live from the rebuild EEE. I fixed the screen. Woo. Also, there's space inside... what to add?
  16. Hilarious, in short doses. http://bit.ly/KCqz0 You'll enjoy for two minutes. #overTheTop
  17. @mshea I expected a story about Scarytown, or possibly the Shadow-shadow-bo-badow. This is just normal multiverse stuff.
  18. I need my wife's butt. To finish setting up her bike seat, of course.
  19. District 9: "fookin'" awesome. The alien is a chemist, soldier, hacker, pilot. His kid runs a UAV 'mech. All other aliens: brick stupid.
  20. Wednesday I stayed until nine, and last night a colleague stayed until 9.5 to get a customer's server working. Last I heard, it works. yay
