How to ask a question with an obvious answer without sounding like a dick?
Xbox RRD and I buy a Roku and Robot Unicorn Attack for iPad. Adobe and MS CEOs meet to discuss Apple’s cell phone dominance. Oblivious much?
Why won’t fax curl up and die already? It’s not “more secure” than email. In other news the iPhone knows how to auto complete Luddite.
Count letters not syllables, the 140 tweet, becomes the new haiku. Win.

It puts the wiki in the pocket, or it gets the hose again.
AT&T’s regret grandfathering unlimited 3G and then not letting me play PvZ ‘cuz it’s >20MB. Worlds first 24/7 pocket lint webcam?
Huh, am I the first one to notice the HTTP request to http://init.ess.apple.com/ when attempting FaceTime #iphone4 Google sure thinks so.
So who do I know who got one, too? Need a FaceTime buddy. #iphone4
FaceTime attempt #1 #fail #iphone4 The other party didn’t have the button & it wasn’t connecting.
Seeing the reception issue? Try resetting Network settings back to factory defaults. Might have helped me. Fixed MMS at least. #iphone4
In line and I have my card in hand. w00t
Half an hour fighting the pre-order system, an hour and a half standing in line and paying. I probably fared better than most. #nciphone
Huh, that’s 5.95 kindles right there.

Amazingly frustrating when something is impossible, not because it’s hard, but because we won’t let it be easy.
Hello Snow Leopard. Yes, I’m a straggler. Had to upgrade pre-iPad, they were gonna revoke my early adopter card.
Wait, min viable product can be an email signup page? Dang, I was feeling guilty about http://getsyncin.com #leanstartup
“What features should we build?” I wish that phrase wasn’t so familiar. #leanstartup

Congratulations, Thawte, somehow you’ve made me think Godaddy is more scrupulous than you. That’s impressive.
The purpose of success is flexibility.
Currently batting a respectable .400.
Yes, Virgina, FF XIII does have unicorns in it.
How does one backup their Xbox 360 hard drive? Just got a hard drive error that went away. Almost FF XIII cock-blocked by the RRD. #noirony

Games on more than one disc? Wow, it’s like a Wizardy V on my Apple ][ flashback.
Talked myself out of a PS3.
SW patent solution: provide a working model. Too many for the old rule to apply to physical objects. Buy for software it’s just disk space.
We’re all on the same team, unless I want something.
Answering my question with a paragraph of questions is a surefire way to get me to sit on your email for a week.
This is new: I just saw an assumption make an ass out of someone else entirely. That was fun.
Always refreshing to be reminded that it doesn’t have to be hard.
Nerdiest xkcd yet.
Always fun watching the dog try to figure out what to do with the car, when it finally catches it.
We coalesce FAIL to empty string. (via @tom_harris)
The primary product of failed startups is folks who know how to make the next one work, available for the low, low price of huge equity.
So refreshing to deal with support guys who actually know what they’re doing.
Your poor planning is not my emergency.

Omni apps for iPad… now that might make me care. http://bit.ly/aJjHNe
Found in my old notes, “He can’t even focus on one sale. Fuck this.” Wish he’d prove me wrong.
Reminder that if I can’t find it in Google, there’s probably an easier way. In this case, click the print button, save the legit PDF.
So heat fixed. *phew*
The iPad is the next form of computing, but it’s 2 years out. When I can have three devices all acting as my mini cloud, that’s the winner.
I do believe the downstairs heater is busted. @#$!
