"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped. Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses. Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder. Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."
Building sandcastles at the beach, being a kid again. And then cry because the tide came in and ruined your sandcastle. All things are temporary and finite.

‘I can’t be having with this.’ - Esmeralda Weatherwax
Discovered that when my computer hard disk controller says that a hard disk in an array has "failed," it doesn't mean it's dead, just that it hiccuped or something and needs to be re-inserted into the array. On the plus side, I thought my new 2TB RAID 1 mirror had crapped out, when it hadn't. On the minus side, I spent $38 on a replacement drive for my other disk array, and now I don't need it. It came off ebay and I have 30 days to return it, but I think that I pay shipping, so I just may keep it for the day when a hard drive really does crap out.

Tried charging my Cowon J3 mp3 player. No go, the battery is dead. Cowon is poorly supported in the U.S. so I'll probably have to send it to Korea to get the battery replaced if I can't find a source for a replacement battery that I can install myself. (Opening the case is tricky, but I can probably manage.)
ETA: Just found a service center in the UK. They want about $50 for a battery replacement. I may stick with using my tablet as an mp3 player for a while. I've got a couple of Sansa Fuze mp3 players which are also likely needing a new battery. Fortunately, that only costs $12. Maybe I'll use that instead. No bluetooth though. ![]()
Just heard about another mass shooting in the States.
