Karma in Antioch

First off let me say that someone completely aced the assignment here: One of my coworkers always tells me Antioch is a terrible place. Nah, it s just very untamed. While sitting here having lunch I watched a horrible old chud-boomer randomly walk over to a homeless person resting in the shade and yell at them. [ ]

In der dunkelheit

Or, German for this: Sometimes you just get thrown a curve ball in this bizarre business. Back near the beginning of the month, I noticed the lights on the B-67 Tower from Fall were starting to flash white at night instead of red as they usually do. While on site I called up tech support [ ]

Oh, I’m naming and shaming this and nothing’s safe:

I have a project in mind for which I want a very simple, old-school simple, webpage for it. I have previously fallen into the WordPress trap. [ ]

Linkin Park – Closer.mp3    .exe

Like really I swear this product has firmware that could be considered about as desirable as pure malware and I hate it. YES IT S THE SSE BOARD AGAIN Seriously, the way this handles a bad temperature probe is adorable: one part of the code flags the reading as invalid and sets an alarm. The other [ ]

Just for the record, I am not kink shaming, but—

Please don t give Miku pubes. Yeah this takes a second to explain I guess. I call my scooter Miku because she looks a lot like Miku s black and gray outfit in a variety of textures. I went to leave work yesterday and uh (see also: Nice.) It looked like someone with short hair who had [ ]
