    Tastee (del.icio.us) links! (August 1st)

    Links for August 1st from 03:00 to 03:00: 365 tomorrows » The Incomprehensible Being – I love stories that play with the idea of time and how limited our perception of it is — it's an idea behind a novel I'm working on, in fact. This vignette is a take I haven't read before, and it works really well. Where the Hell is Matt? (2008) on Vimeo – This is some awesome mess. (vibeo) Thaumatocracy » Post Topic » Textmate for Linux – I'd been eyeballing my Mac-using coworker's text editor (textmate) for the last couple of weeks. Turns out I can get some of the same style of interaction…

    Awesome smoothie

    WO and I experimented this weekend with smoothies and ended up with something rather tastee: Cranberry/Strawberry Smoothie 1 can Ocean Spray whole berry cranberry sauce (Anyone know of a low/no-sugar alternative? We couldn’t find frozen cranberries, and this crap has high fructose corn syrup in it.) 1 bag of frozen strawberries 3-5 tablespoons nonfat plain yogurt Blitz in a blender (my low-speed “puree” setting works very well for frozen fruits) until smooth. Makes about 4 1-cup servings at about 270 calories each (ouch! damn HFCS). Very, very tastee, though. The yogurt makes it a little creamy. If you’ve got frozen cranberries, I’d recommend using 100% cranberry juice as a liquid…

    Tastee (del.icio.us) links!

    These are my links for June 15th through June 18th: xkcd – A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language – By Randall Munroe – Everyone probably already reads xkcd, but I loved this one. "DAR: A Super Girly Top Secret Comic Diary" By Erika Moen – This whole comic series is amazing, but this particular comic (especially panel #4) had me rolling. I'd probably be arrested if I had a penis, too. An important issue? « I?m just saying? – This author (professor?) and a group of students set up an exhibit exploring white privilege at Seattle Pacific University. I always love discussions of white privilege for the different…

    Busy bee

    One of the big worries I have is that I will look back at my life in a decade and realize that I spent my youth working only for a company. I work for a pretty awesome company now, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t want all my accomplishments in life to be through them.

    Tastee (del.icio.us) links!

    These are my links for May 4th through May 27th: migrating email to Gmail – I just moved this domain's email to Google's hosted apps, including their gmail interface. The issue was, of course, that I had years of emails stored from IMAP that I wanted in gmail for searchability. This thread in the DreamHost forums offers two wor Tips for Building Your GM Notebook – Treasure Tables – I've started a GM notebook for the game I'm running for Greg. So far — just one session, and far from a completed book — it's been a big help. So what IS D&D anyway? : Critical Hits – One of…
