Also cool: at the bottom of the box were a pair of AUI-to-Ethernet trasceivers, a laptop IDE to USB2.0 enclosure, and the Sun 13w3-to-SVGA adapter for my namesake Sparc IPX.

I mean, I love them and support them and all that, but... they're not very good.

I wish I'd been paying closer attention to soccer... I only just learned that Eintracht Braunschweig are back in the 2.Bundesliga!

@publius Yeah, one of my best quotes. Surprised I left my real name in the screencap though.

As a kid, authority figures in my life told me that playing video games was a pointless waste of time. Yet, here I am reading about the Mohorovičić Discontinuity, all thanks to a brief mention in the video game Star Control II. SHOWS WHAT YOU KNEW, TEACHERS!

Today seemed like a good day to watch the one CFL game I watch per year. Go Bombers!

Suppose I had to do SOMETHING while waiting for Debian to install on this Acer tower I acquired from work...

Having been a vocal public transit advocate for three decades, it's painful to admit I've stopped taking public transit. Incidents like this happen on our buses several times a day.https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/winnipeg-transit-knife-attack-1.6531406I'm not exaggerating. I've witnessed and experienced violence on city buses personally. It's gotten worse over the past decade.I know it's due to a number of socioeconomic issues and there's no quick, easy fix.

I always wondered what the Hell this thing hanging in our porch was.Today, after seven years of owning the house, I was bored enough to take a look. A National Geographic Remote Sensor. Cool. Now to do some research!
