I was just reintroduced to bash.org, a site that catalouges the best of quotes from IRC conversations. I’ve been on the floor laughing for a good while now. Give it a read.

The plot thickens

And why, might you ask, I need to locate some mp3 encoders? Simple. I just got a fancy new slimp3 player for my home stereo and I plan on encoding all my music and putting the discs into storage. For those that care, the slim rocks the house, small-form-factor-style! It’s quickly becoming one of my favorite peices of gear! It’s easy to use and does what it’s meant to do wonderfully. You’d think the fine folks over at Apple had something to do with it…

I’ve always had a problem finding a good build of the more recent LAME encoders. Then I found RareWares. I *heart* RareWares. They even have the ACM encoders. Yummy!

EGM had a bunch of kids play test a variety of old-school computer games to see how they would react. I suddenly feel so much older.

I just realized just how butt ugly this site is. Maybe I’ll fix that on the plane to San Francisco. That’s right, I’ll be in SF for the entire next week (sunday – friday). So if you’re a hitman with a contract on my life, I won’t be here. I’ll be in SF.
