Was completely offline for 4 days. Strong recommend.

@kiteless
also worthy of note is compact flash's similarity to IDE - converters are cheapish...
Syba Dual Compact Flash CF to 44 Pin IDE/PATA 2.5" Adapter Enclosure, Black SD-ADA45006 a.co/d/fphqBfK

check if your hard drive is the 80-pin parallel ATA type or the 44-pin stuff - above is 44 pin. also check drive height to make sure it fits - I had (from memory) 19mm and 12mm high ide drives for laptops

Unbelievable Black Friday sale at my local library, any of the books I’ve been wanting to read for free and I can take it back for a new book when I’m done

Still waiting for my landlord to show me this year's Black Friday rent deals.

@Wildheart_Baby that is a question we only suspect the answer to based on his behaviour around kids later in life :(

I am still marveling at the statement from the FBI special agent investigating the US/Canada border crossing explosion:

“We feel, at this point, this might be just something that occurred.”

I can see myself using this in future:

BOSS: Why did you send hatemail to our 60 most important customers?

ME: We feel, at this point …

or

PARTNER: Did you just eat an entire cheesecake by yourself? What were you thinking?

ME: We feel, at this point …

Just had a thoroughly dystopian online chat with a computer at HMRC where it failed to even offer me basic information on the correct topic, despite me telling them what the topic was in a very succinct manner.

It wouldn't have helped, as I've already read that, but it would have at least felt like it was potentially achieving something.

Fuck this future, I want my jet pack.

Earlier on today I mentioned a Sandwich Gang & it kind of rattled round my head a bit.

I finished work & thought "Oh, I could make a badge for the Sandwich Club" (I'd already forgotten that it was meant to be gang).

Then I got distracted by the fact you can get something called a club sandwich & how I've never known what that is (now investigated, basically a fancy BLT).

Anyhow.

Eventually I gave a sandwich a club.

Still no badge. My bad.

The very best thing about being fire folk is that you can toast marshmallows whenever you want.

100% of fact.

I don’t know if any time of my life has blurred together more than the last four years

Dungeons and Dragons is a role-playing game that lets you live out such fantasies as:
• Having money
• Making close friends as an adult
• Travelling the world without crippling debt
• Being able to change the world
• Getting better at something with practice
• Getting 8 hours of sleep each night
