It seems that Sega has decided to stop selling Dreamcasts. Now, I don’t own one (although I might now, with the price dropping to about a hundred bucks), but this kind of thing is a little unsettling to me. I thought Dreamcasts were selling like mad, and that the more-expenive-but-hard-to-get PS2s didn’t come close in graphics quality and gameplay. But whatever. Sega is still going to make games for other platforms… it just sucks that a decent, relatively cheap system is going to the birds, and that Sony now has the field all to themselves, despite the fact that they can’t even ship enough of the damn things. I just really hope the Nintendo GameCube kicks mutha-fuckin’-ass, as I know it will. I can hear Zelda calling my name….

….grrr….

Given that today is 2 days before my cell phones current billing period expires I decides to go find out how many minutes I have remaning.

Due to an “error” I end up (re)learning what I already know, THAT WINDOWS AND ASP SUCK FUCKING MONKEY BALLS.

🙂 by the way… PHP rules!

Moving into a new place is both the worst and best thing ever. It’s a new place, so you’re stoked, but you had to move 2 (heavy) couches up 3 flights of stairs. So it’s a give and take. But I’m here. I’m in. No more actually going to a place of employment… it’ll be 10 feet from my bed. What does this mean to you, the beloved reader? More posts. So rejoice in Kevin’s new Wash Park residence. Rejoice.

Where do I start… All sorts of companies are cutting back, cutting heads, and just generally taking it up the ass. Even, “well established” companies like Adobe, Nokia, Ericsson, Amazon.com and Sega are stocking up on Tylenol in anticipation of the free-market actually coming into effect. Now Europe is laughing at our dumb asses.

While Apple products have failed on the market many times, with the Newton handheld device as a prime example, others have picked up on Apple’s ideas and turned them into PC standards

Check out this pretty decent article on how Apple gave PC-peeps all the shit they take for granted. This is why Apple will never go away, and if they did, why the PC hardware and software makers alike would be doing heroin to fight off the pain of having to come up with their own ideas.

Okay. I know. The site’s been kinda slow lately, but I promise I will be able to post more shit when I’m working from home. Which will be this week.

This is hilarious but scary at the same time.

So last week, my car got towed from a spot that, yes, I was not supposed to be parked in, although it was within 5 feet of a spot that I could have parked in. I bummed a ride to the towing yard, paid the fees, and angrily got my car back. But it was over.

Or so I thought.

Fast-forward to tonight (Saturday), 7:50PM. I arrived at work and sat down at my computer. One of my co-workers suggested we go see Snatch. Time: 8:00PM. We leave the building, the 3 of us, and arrive at where I had parked my car. Gone. From the spot that I am authorized to park in. Motherfucker. Called the towing company… ‘Yeah, we got it’ was the response I got. When I told him that the towing was unauthorized, and that I wouldn’t pay for my car, he replied ‘Well then you ain’t getting your car back.’ And it’s 8:00PM on a Saturday night, so there’s literally no one here who could have towed my car, right? Wrong. There’s a stupid-ass apartment/garage right in front if where our spots are, and this guy’s been known to be an asshole. So he’s going down.
