lovepuppy:
I am so bored. I can hear my heart beat in my ear. Camera battery charger at the office, crocheting all day. Blah blah wanna do something fun with another person. Maybe go to cafe in a bit for a snack and tea?
This is a crime, someone take this girl out.

Build a render farm
I’ve picked up 10 systems off the side of the road that people have thrown out due to ignorance. Most just needed a new psu. All the systems came with 20 gig hard drives or more and windows xp. The best system I found was a dual p3 with 1 gig ram running at 750 mhz per prosessor. and the slowest is a amd k6 running at 250 mhz with 512 megs ram. all total on my farm I have just over 7...

Pandora's Bailout
Here are some unsorted thoughts on this shit show..

I know it’s circular reasoning, but the fact is that if we’re going to bail out the bankers, we need to bail out...
