My family doctor had an appointment so I don't have to go down to the clinic to get this bullshit doctors note for work.

« on: March 13, 2015, 06:49:12 pm »God, I'm so upset about Pratchett. I wonder if I should read something he wrote or just try not to think about it too much.Read the fuck out of everything Pratchett you can get your hands on, he poured his life and soul in to his writing, it's the only fitting way to remember him.

The drought doesn't help matters either anyway.
Canada has a lot of water, and global warming is predicted to increase precipitation in the coming decades. Importing Canadian water to keep the American West going is probably the least bad option.

The joys of spring!

« on: March 12, 2015, 01:30:00 pm »Ah, I figured. Oh well. Will still probably pick this up soon.Can you make a round-about with only 1 way roads leading in to it? Will anyone drive on to it? *cackles maniacally*Yes you can make one. Nobody will ever use it though because they calculate the whole path prior to taking the road and would see no exit.
If you removed a road after they were on the roundabout they will simply vanish and return to their origin point once they get to where the road should have been.

The left/right arrow on the bottom left road looks like a battle-axe. Seems fitting.
This actually reminds me a bit of an intersection in my home town (although it technically only has 4 roads still).

The weirdest thing I found about that was that all the service vehicles are obviously google-cars, and everything ran without workers.

I want to wax poetic, but instead I shall just sit here sad. Asked my boss and, sadly, your favourite author dying is not a valid reason for time off. Also, she said there's no way I could read 70+ books in a day, and I can't have a month off. Damn.

Socks or booties are highly recommended for walking dogs in populated areas in the winter. The cold/ice/salt is a bad combo and can rather damage the pads of their paws.

I was fiddling with my download settings the other day, because I wanted it to download a game while I was playing another game. Found out it had me set up downloading from Vancouver... wrong side of the country... explains why my DL speeds sucked.
