Lunar eclipse wot wot tomorrow peak @ 6:05a local? I think, time I saw was 9:05 eastern time… On rss feed that could be 24h out of date. – 02:21 AM GMT
Radiolab is killing it for me tonight, thee best stuff to work on computer config to – 03:57 AM GMT
Dog: collar of shame. Self: cascading Windows, Mac, Dropbox installs. I am the IT dept. stupid userbase. Wait, that’s me too. – 05:08 AM GMT
Ah, still waiting on the this and that download and update. I did get 5k+ x 1080 on one of the rigs finally, so, yay – 08:29 AM GMT

a) dog ate the Christmas candy, estimated not enough chocklit to hurt himself b) he cut himself on glass fragments from cat-smashed ornament – 06:06 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt @desjardins specialty combat-oriented sim, not free, and takes horsepower, but BEAUTIFUL: Rise of Flight – 06:24 AM GMT
@johnmoe I think they should carry Marketplace Tech Report DURING THE HOURS I AM CUSTOMARILY AWAKE. – 06:25 AM GMT
@desjardins @arthurwyatt otherwise I think the current standard is XPlane, which I personally find hard to configure and fly. – 06:28 AM GMT
And oh yeah, homebrew VESA mount a shining success. Except for the drilling and sawing at 2am bit. – 06:35 AM GMT

Nembutone, apparently. Tarry stool, bleeding from the stomach (rarely fatal), may cause drowsiness. – 01:54 AM GMT
Gotta cook up some cockamamie home brew VESA mount adapter. Let’s hope nembutone and shedgineering are a happy fit. – 01:55 AM GMT
Hey! I stayed up until three futzing around with hardware. One new piece of hardware doesn’t speak 1080p but its monitors do. Silly. – 11:12 AM GMT

Dog treed two rackety coons: yfrog.com/mmidmhj – 12:15 AM GMT
He is very proud of himself now. – 12:16 AM GMT
@danelope @mubay @manwhoyells 7p – 12:24 AM GMT
It’s not now, nor has it ever been, a tax cut! It’s a change in the withholding which remains due: BAIT & SWITCH! Burn in hell. DIAF. Etc. – 02:18 AM GMT

@mubay can you bring us all along? – 12:35 AM GMT
Mmmm underarm biopsy hurtses – 12:36 AM GMT
Further news: Barry Lyndon, much stranger than expected. Visually amazing; slower than Tarkovsky; obvious inspiration for The Duellists. – 12:40 AM GMT
@brandonblatcher certainly. Krampus, Osiris, et al. NOTE: while true, is is not factual. – 12:42 AM GMT
@SnapJudgmentOrg you can see the high school and football field from Brick driving by on I-5 in OC. Or SD? I forget. – 12:57 AM GMT
Hmm, events are pushing toward a new computer. – 01:01 AM GMT
@manwhoyells @mubay we will all meet there! No? Jim can join us on Phinney Thursday then. – 01:22 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt yep. uses a two-to-three beat reaction response rhythm, apparently to make it like reading Thackeray or looking at Constable. – 01:26 AM GMT
@mubay I KNOW RIGHT – 07:18 AM GMT
@mubay @manwhoyells Thursday, Santa Finimex cafe – 04:52 PM GMT
Hurr hurr wifi password at the Polyclinic is “polyguest.” apparently my sense of humor belongs to a 12 year old. – 05:43 PM GMT
Neato! My MRI results enable me to admire my flesh as though it were a fine prosciutto or serrano hamhock! Speck even! – 11:09 PM GMT
from Hibari

I have a nice big desk again for the first time in years. gotta work on shelving and my drawing tables next. – 01:36 AM GMT
You know what makes me happy? Being around and using technology developed in in pre-industrial times. This is very curious. – 02:13 AM GMT

So, now that the body scanners are actually being used at airports, a year after they arrived, I realize Viv must ALWAYS get a pat down. – 04:07 AM GMT
She’s not as grouchy about as I am. I am PLENTY GROUCHY about it. – 04:08 AM GMT
Words that amuse me when heard on the news: “rogue Russian space probe” – 06:05 AM GMT

I believe I shall inflict Barry Lyndon upon my tired, easily bored wife this evening. Comfy slippers, candles, a glass of wine. – 01:21 AM GMT
Oh, and last nite we rented a film on Amazon to play on tv from within the web browser. Verdict: acceptable, except for the script choices. – 01:23 AM GMT
RT @desjardins: Occupy Deep Space 9 occupyds9.blogspot.com/2011/12/future… #startrek (blog entry by me) – 01:25 AM GMT
@desjardins awesome! Do they mention John Titor? J/k, obvs – 01:26 AM GMT
@hell0jed character name Captain Harlock. Forget series name offhand. – 05:20 AM GMT
@hell0jed maybe actually 1970s. – 05:21 AM GMT
@hell0jed en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_H… / 1970s through 2000s, various incarnations / series – 05:24 AM GMT
@hell0jed … And finally, you are also thinking of Battleship Yamamoto, which once was a crossover with Harlock, but apparently now is not. – 05:29 AM GMT
@hell0jed cf. shipschematics.net/yamato/chronol… // scroll for pix – 05:30 AM GMT
@hell0jed d’oh, Yamato, I mean – 05:31 AM GMT

@mcgee_gorgo this idea interests me, especially. I make my living on the internets selling things that were necessities before electricity. – 07:12 AM GMT
@mcgee_gorgo or at the dawn thereof. – 07:12 AM GMT
20 years ago, where u vill crate & barrel is, there was an enormous bowling alley, University Lanes, with a huge canvas mural of Rainer. – 07:49 AM GMT
So basically, the iPhone is way better than the iPad. Mac OS is also better than both. I use the phone when I can & the iPad until I can’t. – 07:56 AM GMT
@zipties it’s hard to say. For some reason using the phone is never frustrating while using the pad often is. Certain tasks best on Mac OS. – 03:02 PM GMT
Boy cat is drinking my coffee! I suppose that may be a bad idea. His sadly-deceased sister used to love to munch coffee beans. – 05:51 PM GMT
@zipties what’s odd is that I will use the iPad over the phone *even though* I know it will frustrate me. Screen size? Dunno. – 05:53 PM GMT

@sabrinabonus GUESSTIMATIZE – 12:13 AM GMT
Man, I hate TV so much. It is not even rational. Turns on, I leave the room in a snit. – 05:28 AM GMT
Ridiculous. – 05:29 AM GMT
