1 word: Games

If it weren't for most games not being written for Linux, I'd not use windows at all. Believe me. Nothing would give me more pleasure than to never have to use Windows again. I don't use it because it's good. I use it because I have to.

(g)MUDix or Crystal

On: What is a Good Free MUD Client?

I'm a big fan of minimalist mud clients (at least in appearances. More room for text) so I've gone with gMUDix (or MUDix for the console version). It has all the trigger/timers/paths/macros/alias/etc features. Occasionally I use Crystal as it's even more minimalist and reaches the goal of, basically, a telnet client with a command input line (so the scrolling text doesn't make you unable to see what you're typing). They're both very good and very free. Depends on what you need.

On: Skulls Gain Virtual Faces

I wonder though, will this work with any skull, like a monkey skull? Or would it try to make the monkey look human?

Well, seeing as most humans are about as smart as a monkey (at least most of the people I know) I don't see why not...

"if that was the case, nobody would drive the speed limit."

OptOnline is primarily on Long Island (where I live)... Believe me. No one drives the speed limit here. Not even close.

Fortunately, God smiled upon me that day ;)

Crome the moon!

On: Lunar Power

Look, if we just chrome the moon, then we can use the reflected sunlight (well, for most of the month) to light the earth at night, and so our solar panels would never be without a source of energy. Problem solved. Get with it people.
