Dear Microsoft. http://localhost is supposed to point to 127.0.0.1

Making it point to another PC without the benefit of an entry in the hosts file is just a sick fucking joke.

I was listening to the radio on the way to work this morning, and they credited a song to “Jethro Tull and his flute.”

Uh…

Ed_Solomon · 2012-04-25T20:45:07.000Z

By the way, which one’s Pink?

I knew toms hardware turned to crap many years ago but when did they start hiring implanted bimbos for their videos? That’s even lower than low.

Disclaimer: I only went there because they turned up in a search for the new r6300 router.

It seems that those online ad things hew a bit too closely to what I’m searching for. Like, I’ve been looking at SWTOR, Tribes Ascend, and the Secret World recently. Now I see ads for those games everywhere I go. But I obviously already know about them! Show me something similar but not the same as what I’ve typed into Google, sillyheads!

Motherfucker! If you sprinkle powdered sugar on Newt Gingrich, he would look like a beignet!

Yesterday I watched “angels and demons” and got really angry about the mcguffin SPOILERS … The idea is that theres a bomb with a wifi cam, and the cops are trying to find it. It would be posible to do a traceroute or a signal triangulation, but instead try to determine the position by shutting down parts of the city. And thats wha made me angry, nstead of using a binary partition of space algotrim, shutting down half the suspicious area, thy did it by shutting down small areas.

It’s a little thing, but Google is doing one of their quarterly/bi-yearly PageRank update – PageRank is a number from non-existant to ten telling you how valuable Google sees your site, which is based on the value of incoming links – and my blog went up from 2 to 3! That’s a big deal for a little site like mine! Yay!

RichVR · 2012-05-03T16:54:06.000Z

Each stalk has a built in groove for peanut butter.

John_Many_Jars · 2012-05-03T17:03:28.000Z

Or cream cheese

RichVR · 2012-05-03T17:57:12.000Z
