That saying actually predates railroad trains, which were called that because a train meant “that which is drawn along”

I take supplements in the evening and i got so boring taking out the pills from top to bottom, left to right. So now I’m doing various patterns, usually symmetric.
Thanks, now I feel not quite so absurd.

- Comment on Split Keyboards Are Superior And The Reason I’m The Writer I Am Today. 7 months ago:
Many, many moons ago (must have been around 2006?) I managed to procure a FingerWorks. It was magic, like holding a piece of computing history!
It allowed a lot of the gestures we take for granted, to switch applications or workspaces, to go back a page, etc. But it also had really cool stuff. You could bind gestures like twisting your fingers clockwise to open a file (just like opening a jar!) or counterclockwise to close it. Pinch and zoom for copy and paste.
I was only able to get a hold on a Dvorak copy. And because the key labels were printed on the board, you couldn’t really change the layout. Getting used to a split layout, no keys and Dvorak at the same time was too much and I had to sell it again. But I’ve been using split keyboards ever since!

Not really. I was quite surprised when they recently celebrated 40k users.

He says a lot of things when the day is long and he’s standing for election. I mean, what to expect? He’s a pathological liar.

The rule of law has eroded. You have a convicted felon in office who has brushed away an impeachment and is in control of all branches of government. So what is next now?
- Comment on Mid game review: Lollipop Chainsaw (2012) PS3 9 months ago:
Played it for a few hours because it’s a Suda51 game. And because it’s a Suda51 game it’s style over substance and waaay over the top. But in this case they style wasn’t enough to engage me the whole way through.

After some short bouts of Forza Horizon 4 and Dirt 5 I’m back at Final Fantasy XIII, hoping I can finish it sometime soon.
