Last time I did that, there was awkward silence. That is, until Ross joined Nik into the call.

But I'd have to get offline to do that anyway. Too much bother. 😛

yeah I am not sure what I would talk about either.

Go to www.distrowatch.com find yourself some Linux distro you haven't tried yet download it and play around with it, that's what I do when I am bored and stuck at home.

Well, it would probably be June before the distro was downloaded, since I'm currently connected at 28.8 Kbps.

Also, I'm not about to install Linux on my laptop, and my desktop is at a friend's house.

I would think it'd be like ATOT...without the AT part. I mean, I dunno...he could have his own tv show I think. Better than Jimmy Kimmel or Craig what's-his-name.

LOL

I remember that, conferencing in Nik.

:laugh:
 
<sigh> Yep. Still bored. This time I'm at a friend's house.

Oh, and I tried to learn a new OS, as CorpRec suggested. Unforunately, I'm having data corruption issues with it now...
 
Over three weeks later...

I've designed a new website, and added a lot of functionality to it above and beyond the original scope.
I've added functionality to an existing website.
I've had 2 job interviews, and will hopefully be receiving offers from both in the next couple of days.
I've built a desktop PC.
I've helped associates with numerous computer problems.

All of this on top of a 40 hour work week, plus normal mundane tasks.

While playing solitaire.

And I'm still bored. 🙁

<edit> Oh, and I planned, sketched out, and started building a new online distributed identity system... and then scrapped it, citing a waste of time. <shrug> Just another thing on the growing list of things I should never have wasted my time on.
 
Found myself launch solitaire for the first time in a couple of months, so thought I'd revive a dead thread, for the hell of it.

Hrmmm... I haven't drawn a picture (I assume that's what you mean by "draw") by hand in many years. Will a camera work? 🙂

play enemy territory, free, and more fun than solitaire.

hrmmm... I had never even heard of that one before.

But given that the enemy territory website is still less than 50% loaded, and i've been trying to open it for about 5 minutes now, I'm betting it's not something I can do tonight. I'll keep it in mind for the future tho. 🙂
