Sunday. Another day at church…and now I find out minister Jackson is off to do some church-planting. That officially leaves us with…Pastor Paul and Minister Heald. Grrrrreat. I love how the heads of our church are like disappearing.

In other news, [this] is a very good read. Its about how girls should not date startup guys….or if they feel like a bumpy adventure they should. Though I tend to disagree on one point, because some developers don’t like Mac. I personally think Apple is worse than Microsoft in that Bill Gates became a philanthropist…while Steve Jobs just takes a $1 salary…but gets HUGE corporate gifts. Microsoft develops expensive software that gets stolen….Steve makes expensive software and hardware to steal your money at hugely jacked up prices. Microsoft isn’t “OSS-Friendly,” Apple “is” but locks hardware down so tight you can’t change your graphics card. Oh and OSX only runs on Macs, legally at any rate. Way to go, Apple, you startup-friendly bank-robber!

Vive Linux. Compiz-Fusion pwns all graphical interfaces.

Interesting read: [Are we losing our minds?] (thanks to google? I know I just about am. I’m upsessed with translating words on goosh haha. so fun.)

While we’re on the subject of losing our minds…good poem.

Solitude
By Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone;
For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air;
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.

 
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn and go;
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad, and you lose them all,—
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life’s gall.

 
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by.
Succeed and give, and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a large and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.

My sentiments exactly.

Obamarama continues: [Via Communist News Network]

What do I think? I think a Obama-McCain Ticket is… Haha. I read an editorial on the Washington Post and it actually sounded like a pretty good idea. Until I knocked myself into reality, remembering that Obama supports infanticide. But its still an intriguing idea. Combine a total rookie with a foreign policy pro, and see what we get. [(Instant withdrawal from Iraq + X Years In Iraq) / (1+3)] = 1/4 the time in Iraq. I say 1+3 because as President Obama would be about 3x more powerful if not more. Of course, I’m pulling this out of my ass as anyone does who thinks of statistics.

OK in another round of geeking, I think I can conclude a couple things.

1) Tipjoy doesnt work. Sorry.
2) A lot of slashdot articles come from YC News. Sort of funny. E.g Goosh Shell.
3) Goosh Shell has so many problems its stupid.
4) I just defaced some nub’s blog and its funny.
