Tersosity

• Must be time to watch Notting Hill again. Just burst out laughing when a train of thought took me into a couple of scenes from it. #
• Specifically: Spike picking a T-shirt, Spike wearing the diving suit, Will wearing the prescription goggles to the movie theater. #
• @Shurakai Shhhhh… be vewwy vewwy quiet. And kill da wabbit too. #
• @Shurakai You know, they could change the Tweeter Center to Twitter Center with only a couple letters, but then random events would simply #
• @Shurakai not happen as scheduled, or be inaudible, or the audience size would be arbitrarily limited. #
• @SeanMarler I supported Dragon Naturally Speaking at a couple law firms. It mostly rocks & is a rare exception to upgrades not being better. #
• @SeanMarler There was one bad release when the company was changing hands midway, but it’s gotten astonishingly good. Way back when 3.0… #
• @SeanMarler was what we picked after buying and testing IBM Via Voice, Dragon, and Learnout & Hauspie Voice Xpress. Key considerations: #
• @SeanMarler Reasonably powered PC, decent microphone & sound hardware in PC, some people/accents it just doesn’t fly, train & use shortcuts. #
• @SeanMarler FWIW mostly they used Pro, but Standard probably fine. Also I think they may have a utility specifically for transcription. #
• @SeanMarler But not sure and doing a playback by a microphone may work enough to save typing, even if it needs editing. #
• Didn’t even notice Sadie going to sleep on a pile of bedding behind me in office. Then Val needed service & bedtime, went pullup-free. #
• Be great if it sticks this time, which is likely. #
• @Tammisworld Happy birthday! #
• @TraderMike Happy birthday! #
• Finished the daily stuff that falls into the “done by 8 AM” slot. #
• Cuil: #1 for real name. #1 at old site for pseudonym, but… #2 result for pseudonym is resume under my real name. #
• All that coffee should be accomplishing more than bladder overdrive. Apparently I’m immune today. #
• A while back I noticed an intense amount of inexplicable crawling by Limelight Networks. Wonder if they were working for Cuil in development #
• Fall must be coming. Now I’m almost unbearably hot. Overnight and into this morning it was downright cold. #
• Seems wrong that we borderline qualified for energy assistance on what I made before I was unemployed. #
• No wonder is was so easy to end up owing $2500-odd. #
• Just talking about what you get stuck in your head for what things *should* cost or pay to be reasonable. #
• I remember so vividly 20k/yr being a good income that it still seems wrong for not unreasonable rent & utils to be 18k/yr. #
• @Pistachio Missed that. Standard far better, but automatic is less annoying in stop & go traffic. My 88 Sentra got 30 MPG in part b/c manual #
• @MikeG1 ftl will always mean faster than light to me. notwithstanding fruit of the loom’s best efforts. #
• Not sure why the girls try so much harder to limit baby’s napping when both of us are here. #
• Appliance calculator tells me our electricity usage should be 3x what it actually is based on, well, what we have & how much it runs. #
• If McCain picks Romney, I might actually go vote just to vote against him. #
• Sleep would be nice. #
• Yuck. Kids. #
• Nice to see gas down to $3.77 around these parts. #
• Time to check the beans continue the dishes start the other food get a drink reorganize the freezer. #
• @christinelu Wow! Something views, but the first word completely escapes me. Looks like U, a bunch of lowercase L, and S. That’s absurd. #
