And I was really impressed with how they managed to shock the Goatse guy.

Network

Viruses so far have been really disappointing on the 'disable the internet' front, and time is running out. When Linux/Mac win in a decade or so the game will be over.

Success

40% of OpenBSD installs lead to shark attacks. It's their only standing security issue.

Brick Archway

The TI-86 was bad enough. I don't know how I'd have gotten through high school if I'd had a laptop+wifi.

xkcd store

The new "compiling" shirt is now shipping from the store, and the hoodie will start shipping this week! To get a non-US order shipped by christmas, place it now -- we can't guarantee international ship times but if you order this week it will likely get there before Christmas. (and the sooner the better on US orders)

Post Office Showdown

That track ('Battle Without Honor or Humanity') -- like 'Ride of the Valkyries' -- improves *any* activity.
