  1. EDC Gear

    Oh, way too many cool little things for your pockets, none of which I need at all.

  2. webgamingcentral - YouTube (SimCity)

    I keep meaning to watch some of these SimCity playthrough videos, as I find it fascinating… but if I was wondering how I’d justify the time required to play the game, I’m not sure I can justify watching other people play it.

    @holgate I’ve used Postmarkapp.com and been happy with it.

    @blech Adding “film” or “movie” is interesting too.

    HELP! I JUST HAD AN OPINION AND I’VE RUN OUT OF COMMENT FORMS!

    @tomcoates @minor9th We should totally get him fired! Oh, wait, he’s leaving anyway, damn. Let’s fire you instead for making a fuss! And me!

    Maybe Vint Cerf or someone can get this all over with and fire everyone on the Internet.

    @whoisdanw Inappropriate language. FIRED!

    @blech @yoz Thanks, but I’ve finally kind of pieced it together via a few articles.

    @yoz By the time I hear about one of these things there’s been: Event; Reaction; Twitter hate; Refutation; Firing… Hard to piece together.

    @beekernortham It was all SPLATTERY KILL ALIENS WITH MASSIVE GUNS FOR AGES then a weepy bit about his old dad THEN SPLATTERY KILL ALIENS…

    @alruii Ooh, ooh! Prad Bitt? Wuce Brillis? Cenedict Bumberbatch? Or something more like DJ Puggle Wuggle?

    @beekernortham I found the Gears of War “story” cut scenes laughably po-faced and irrelevant, so find it hard to take that seriously…

    @aanand The answer is a very patient and determined human, who shall be known as Botman or Botwoman!

    @hondanhon I’ve never relied on Gmail in the first place for just this kind of reason. Plenty of viable alternatives in this case.

    Really, the root of this whole problem is Python itself. I mean, semantically relevant whitespace? What did they THINK would happen!?

    @cdevers In this case the Brits!. Never add a possessive or plural “s” (or hyphen) 2 'LEGO' & always add a descriptive noun (eg LEGO bricks)
