I’d like to thank, uh, I’m not really sure…

All I know is that, between 1999 and 2007, I bought a bunch of graphics cards, mostly for the purpose of making Everquest look better. Kind of a sad statement that, but it’s more or less true. Your average graphics … Continue reading →

Some examples of sadness

Posted on June 25, 2007 by baudattitude

Goals for the summer

Posted on June 18, 2007 by baudattitude
