  • While Apple seems to have acted immorally when buying the iPad trademark, the success of the iPad has nothing to do with the name. It could be called the iPoo and people would still buy it if it offered the same functionality.
    Tried to play Ultima 7 yesterday, but the cursive writing combined with the scaled low-res got to me. I have seen it better-rendered before, so I will play around with DosBox settings. The default settings from GOG also had the NPCs running around at super speed, so something was off there. I'll check out some gameplay videos to make sure.
    Anyone have experience with microwaves that have convection ovens in them? I'd like to get one for my range hood to replace a 25 year old over-range model, and to use as a non-microwave too. Do these things work at all? User reviews I've read on Consumer Reports and other places seem to moan about the convection ovens not working properly.
    Veni Vidi Vici! Finally got the 20th trinket in VVVVV. Hardest level of any kind I've ever played. (search YouTube for videos of the dastardliness)
    I am considering no longer attributing quotes / ideas to their source. Attribution devalues the idea itself and replaces it in the reader's mind with their attitudes towards the original author. Thoughts?
    Good with the Bad:
    Good: Deciding on eating chili for breakfast. Yum!
    Bad: On my second bite, the peppers in the chili made me sneeze. Sneezing with a mouthful of chili in front of 3 monitors is not good. Fortunately, I rose my hand in time.
    My favorite breakfasts: Omelette or Apple Pancake at Original Pancake House; Migas (but only if you can get salsa on top) at Kerbey Lane; Western Blend breakfast tacos with cheese and beans and hold the tortilla at Jim's; Potato Egg and Cheese at Jim's. And this is why on work days I eat 1.5 cups yogurt with cinnamon, guarana, cacao nibs, mulberries, gooseberries, goji berries, flax meal and almonds.
    Will the zombie apocalypse be robots instead of zombies? Isn't The Terminator more plausibly possible than Resident Evil?
    Indian chicken wings = good. Teji's started those on Wednesday. I will try vindaloo wings sometime. Might need beer with that though for bravery.
    I got an email from a support organization stating that they have created a "PEA Activity". Is that a joke?
    Looking for suggestions for a new news reader. I use Google Reader and since they changed their interface a couple of months ago, I find I just cannot stand it any longer.
    (Mis)Adventures in cooking: While I was out at friend's playing a game, Buffy made some Portuguese Bean soup. I have my morning spices in ziploc bags, sometimes unlabeled. Including bulk cinnamon and guarana powder. When adding cinnamon, she added guarana powder instead. I came home to a clean kitchen! :)
    An acquaintance confided that his meat shop business is up 72% this December versus last year. Now that is good news! (He is in Canada, but whatever.)
    Is electing a politician whose stances are malleable a good thing or a bad thing? In general, I think it is good. But it sure makes it hard to vote in a primary.
    If SWTOR actually taught its players to meditate, would there be less griefing on PvP servers?
