I've been threatening to do this for months, but as of last night I am now a Linux user.

Let me explain:

Website Questions

Why did my ability to post things via Cell Phone stop working? I had some good Chess night quotes that are now lost!

Who the heck is Pie Peps?

Who the heck is Magicwoods?

No, seriously. I don't get a lot of a visitors to this site that aren't people I don't know (or people that got really lost off some Google search.) The ones that do show up without knowing me generally don't make accounts.

"You will be happy socially and in your work."

Very true... Spooky isn't it.

Today's Fortune Cookie

"Everything will now come your way."
Taken as a good thing, that sounds nice.

Taken literally, well I always wondered what was on the other side of black holes.

A New Portal Level

The game makers over at Bethsesda are apparently Portal addicts (and so is just about everyone that's played it... great game).

Now they are such addicts that they had to go an make a new map for portal, and let me tell you, it's a damn doosey. It's fun, it's interesting, and it has some impressive new gameplay functions that Valve didn't throw at us in the official game.

It also looks nearly as good as a "real" level and even re-uses some of the GlaDOS voice snippets as you go along. All of it makes for a good time out.
