oh yeah, and the power crisis continues. Rolling blackouts start at 4pm. If you're in California and reading this today, go shut off a light somewhere. You're taxing the grid, man. (Diablo Canyon 1, why can't you be more like Diablo Canyon 2?)
this storm is some of the worst weather I've seen since I moved to CA. As I drove to San Francisco this morning, my windshield wipers couldn't keep up with the horizontal rain the wind was throwing around. The palm trees along the Embarcadero were shivering. If you stand outside for two minutes your clothes get completely soaked, and the wind simply eats umbrellas. So yeah, the rain sucks. But the sound of the rain on the roof is calming.
Have you heard about IT? this must be IT. [via the clever boingboing] (this device is hated by the knights who say ni!)
They tell me the beaches over there are black
From lava gone into the sea
And unroll at the foot of an immense peak fuming with
snow
Under a second sun of wild canaries

And unroll at the foot of an immense peak fuming with

I highly recommend Genghis Blues. (universal music.) I also recommend State and Main. (cutesy cinecism.) I somewhat recommend All About My Mother. (complex roles.)

CNET.com: Linux to star on silver screen: "The film promises to be a Linux lover's dream, featuring shots of the Gnome desktop, consulting work by Linux leaders, and cameos by at least one of the Linux movement's geekiest idols." Whenever you see "real-world" technology in a movie, it's always this weird alternate-universe technology. Usually with HUGE UI elements. Like a big red box that takes up an entire monitor flashing ACCESS DENIED. or in Independence Day: uploading virus. Maybe this movie will get it right.
I sure have been swearing a lot lately. I'm not mad. just swearing.
