it's also shameful that i own a car that i'm still making payments on, that is functionally powered by buggy closed-source software that the manufacturer has no intention of ever fixing. i can't even choose to pay for a hardware+software upgrade path.

i had a good idea!

is it really a good idea though? i mean, have we thought about the possible downsides or repercussions?

do i really know enough about the subject to know that this is a good idea, or is there something even better?

maybe it's not a good idea.

And I'm all alone tonight
Distant highway din
Leaky roof my doubt drips in
And as the streetlights and my prospects dim
She turns in bed and thinks of him

I have to say that I have basically moved on from half-life. In a lot of ways half life is quite adolescent. It’s very linear, not quite a hallway, but very non-deterministic. Small choice of weapons, very few complexities to master.

i never really impressed anyone with 140 characters, so 280 isn’t gonna make a whole lot of difference.

note to new parents: if your kids has a favorite stuffed animal, immediately buy 2 or 3 more. put them in a closet for a couple years.

Idea: Waze knows when the school buses run, and factors that in so that I don’t get stuck behind one for 8 miles.
