Short Updates

Posted by Scott at 11:44 PM

Over the weekend AMD added twitter.com to its internal list of blocked sites. No more twittering from emacs. ssh tunnels work well though.. 08:47am

I couldn't believe it. As I was dropping Claire off at school, it was 50°F/10°C outside. Wet commute in due to snowbanks melting onto roads. 08:54am

Laughing at a game press release headline at (related link) saying "Give Free Rain to Your Inner Emperor" Excuse me? Rain? 09:17am

Staring in awe at a newly released die photo of our new 45 nanometer four core CPU. (related link) What a monster! 10:47am

Amused at local weather forecasting - "Today: high 55°F" followed later by "Now: 59°F". Exceeding expectations before noon! 11:10am

Heading out. Going to an Opus Dei Evening of Recollection in Bedford, NH. Still lookin' for that supposed albino monk Dan Brown mentions... 04:28pm

Rolling my eyes. A red Toyota "Pious" (my nickname), vanity plate "CONSRVN", & the prereq anti-Bush sticker. 06:15pm

Apologies for my earlier semi-rant (ala "the red Toyota Pious"). I just find secular norms of piety so misdirected. 09:28pm

Back from Eve. of Recollection. Listened to more of The Passion on the drive home. (related link) The whole book is so intense. 09:31pm
