Take The Train

I'm heading off to Tram Town next week to ~~bother~~ visit my family. Naturally, I'm taking the train.

Why?

Here's why:

Go to train website.
Check timetable.
Buy ticket online.
Receive ticket as PDF via email.
Print ticket on printer.
Catch train.
Snooze and/or read and/or watch anime and/or listen to iPod and/or play games on Palm Pilot as countryside rolls by. (I haven't got the extended battery yet so I'm limited to about 3 hours of anime.)

Multiply And Conquer

This card sports two Nvidia 7800GT graphics chips and 512MB of memory. This motherboard has four 16x PCI-Express slots. And this delivers 1000W continuous and 1100W peak.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

2 Only if you're thinking "I have no idea what he's talking about"... ;)

3 Actually from the picture (me no speak Francais) it looks like the multi-GPU card has an external power adaptor, so you don't need a 1000W PSU, instead a 4-port power board.

4 Jojo - uh, yes, so it does.

5 I guess so, Pixy, but can it emulate a native speaker of Chinese?

6 Yes, Pixy, but where will we get a bucket of llama spittle at this time of night?

7 Are you thinking what I'm thinking? I think so, Pixy. But where are we going to get rubber pants at this time of day?

8 Misa--Can you email me? I don't know your email address, and I have a question for you. Thanks!

10 As someone who's been using computers for ages, I find it fascinating how video cards have become virtual computers of their own.

11 Forgive my rather... um... disjointed... comment up above. I had two teeth pulled yesterday, and was under the influence of a couple vicodin when I wrote it. To make matters worse, it took me close to five minutes to type that sentence... because I was being careful with the spelling. Dean, last I checked, the newest GPUs actually have a higher processor count than most P-III systems, and maybe even P-IVs. Scary, very scary.

13 Edmonton dominated the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday night and the 4-0 margin in Game 6 makes it hard to imagine the Oilers not hoisting hockey's Holy Grail above their heads in less than 48 hours. And it would not come as any shock to see defenseman Chris Pronger, who had another 31-minute night, take the honors for the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoff MVP.

Yay For Technology

I have wireless internet! On my notebook! 1Mb/s at 100km/h! Well, the trains don't actually run that fast, but then again I got the slower plan, so it all balances out...

Sort of.

Another Modest Proposal

There are nations in Africa that have no Senators at all, yet America has one hundred of them.

Help Africa help itself: Donate a Senator today.

1 Heh, that may well be the best idea i've heard today.

2 Pixy, O/T: I had to change my password to the MT Dashboard. Please e-mail me so I get pass along the new one....

3 Certainly we Californians can spare Feinstein and Boxer.

Posted by: Steven Den Beste at Saturday, September 17 2005 09:42 PM (CJBEv)

4 I thought you said you wanted to HELP them! Sending a Senator, or any congresscritter, will merely drown them in red tape and balderdash. If not literally drowning them, that is.

Posted by: Wonderduck at Sunday, September 18 2005 02:42 AM (KnWO3)

5 I was going to offer Feinstein and Boxer, but Mad Mikey beat me to it. They should enjoy Africa since they're always talking about diversity, though I have a feeling it's more about diversifying my paycheck.

Posted by: Rossz at Sunday, September 18 2005 03:57 AM (n5Jbg)

6 In fact, it was Steven Den Beste who offered Feinstein and Boxer. I'm sure Australia will step up to match contributions; we can throw in Bob Brown and Kerry Nettle for starters.

Posted by: Pixy Misa at Sunday, September 18 2005 08:38 AM (QriEg)

7 I'll gladly donate Hillary Gaddam Clinton! Although I think the Africans are still pissed Bill turned down their offer of 40 goats and cows for Chelsea .

Posted by: michele at Sunday, September 18 2005 07:13 PM (OQ2GD)

8 I thought only Governors and Mayors were in charge of drowning people? IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢d happily donate always unavoidable for comment McCain to fill the RINO quota.

Posted by: Azygos at Sunday, September 18 2005 10:10 PM (zrUz/)

9 Gotta give 'em at least two, to be generous. I think we could spare 1 Hillary and 1 Durbin.

Posted by: Seth at Monday, September 19 2005 12:35 AM (1Mbgi)

10 Can we substitute a Representative? I'd like to send Lynn Woolsey, our Rep. That bitch is useless.

Posted by: Mark at Monday, September 19 2005 12:59 AM (qEeIY)

11 Wonderduck, Senators have their uses even in Africa. They are supposed to taste good roasted, for instance.

12 I see that all comments are going into the comment queue again. Sigh...

Note Spelling

I'm not dead, I've just been messing about in the engine room of the good ship Munuvia. Basically, I have time to do that, or to blog, but not both. I'll have to change the flags here every so often just so you know I'm still alive.

Speaking Of Evil

I'm getting spammed by a freaking public library! What's wrong with people?

On the other hand, I compared John Kerry to a cabbage - unfavourably - on Slashdot and got moderated up to +5. Republicans with mod points. Phear the power!
