I’ve always been a huge open source software proponent– this blog is ran by FreeBSD, PHP, WordPress, Apache, MySQL, etc., yet the PHP language has never really sat well with me.

I just found a site which has has a list of the ten geekiest hobbies, and I’m proud to say I don’t partake in any of them. About as close as I get is owning the first of the Cowboy Bebop videos (and that still would not really even qualify as a “comic book”). [...]
For those times when you get tired of telling someone to look things up on Google before asking you questions… fucking Google it before you bother me!
Apparently the 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix has a glitch which completely hoses up the calendar display because they forgot 2004 is a leap year.
What day is it? Don’t ask the driver of General Motors Corp.’s Pontiac Grand Prix.
Due to a software glitch, the computer display in the 2004 model year Grand Prix shows the wrong [...]
