share information via fingering
Oh, I used to love to stalk people that way! Also, after college when I'd moved to not using my oldschool college email, but had moved on to WEBMAIL (ooh), I still went back and fingered some friends who always updated their "plans" or whatever, just to see what they were up to. You could even do it to friends at other colleges!
Liese, what does "fatou_dust" refer to? I've always wondered!
Fatou dust is the disconnected bits of a Julia set (like a Mandelbrot set) in fractal math. They're really pretty. [link] (Scroll down to the bottom image.)
My project this afternoon was repainting the bumper of my car that got scratched up when the screaming lady hit me a few weeks ago.
In my only car accident (literally just a fender-bender), I hit a Mini. Did more damage to my car than the Mini, which just had a broken tail light.
(The Mini pulled in front of me and stopped.)
It is cracking my shit up that the secondary meeting we have tomorrow after the normal "ABC" meeting is now being called the Shadow "ABC" meeting by even the people who run it (they started off calling it the "ABC" 2), since I decided that we were the League of Shadows and referred to it as the Shadow meeting.
They have been caught in the dork undertow, and don't even know it.
Has anyone noticed the RC Minis on the track and field field? Apparently they're being used to run tapes to officials and return javelins and shots back to home. Hubby wishes very much that he was an Official Olympic RC Car Driver.
I'm way behind in movies, but they just hired some guy named Joss Whedon to direct the next Avengers movie.

Plus a Marvel TV show for ABC.
You know, I was kinda looking forward to the geeksplosion if for any reason Joss wasn't on Avengers 2, including by his own hand.
Damn, I hate not getting the train-wrecks my pettiness enjoys.

FINE. HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO REMEMBER????
I wrote it down this time...
If the site said that login IDs were email addresses...well, I'd still have forgotten I'd made a custom ID for that purpose
at first,
but when I saw that the "lost username" email was going there, I might have worked it out.
Poopyheads.
Security officer gave the required biannual "Be afraid, be very afraid" presentation last week. There pretty much is no way to be sufficiently careful for a) the company and b) him. I usually have a week or so of guilt and false resolutions after these presentations. Still rolling around in it.
Another one of those articles that insists
everyone
has the Facebook, so if your prospective squeeze/employer can't find you, it's a red flag: [link] -- I can't work out if the author is serious (because clearly some people
do
believe that), or they're milking a convenient topic.
I emailed the developer who didn't catch the bug we set loose in production to ask what happened with her testing. I am going to assume I stressed her out, because I can't make head nor tail of her English. I am no more informed than before I asked. So it's no easier to defend her, and no harder to throw her under the bus (uh, which I have no intention of doing).
