For all those who joined in late, I now have an unlimited 256 kbps connection from Hathway. And as a consequence, my download time for the same amount of content has reduced five fold. So basically, here’s what has happened: My eMule download list, with the whole of the Gilmore Girls and a lot of other (unmentionable?) stuff, amounting to over 100 items, has now reduced to a flimsy list of less than 5. And that too will finish by tomorrow. I never thought there would be a time like this…
(Yes, I can start new downloads, but there’s a slight problem: With this speed, I do about 1.6+ GB per day, and my hard disk space cannot keep up with it… Major problem, I’d say!)
=======================
Now, if you are expecting some mushy or lascivious stuff, go away. This is not about my first date, or something like that. It’s about a rather innocent question that a friend put forth. The preparatory leave (PL) makes people think about funny things, that are very important in reality, but we kind of push them because we don’t want to deal with them at that moment. And because the PL is actually about all such things like studies, the other things like this one, being much easier to confront, arise at such times…
Anyway, so his question: Imagine you are on a date…
Me: With a gal?
Him: Yes, with a gal.
Me: Go on…
Him: Yes, so say you go get some coffee with a gal…
(pause)
Me: And then who pays?
Him: Exactly
Me: Ah, you have asked a very important question, my dear friend. The answer to which, I strongly feel, is: Split it 50-50. At least on the first date.
What do you feel? Weigh in…
=======================
What will a nerd say to his girl friend?
Your code is beautiful.
And it really might be so… The genetic code, for all those who proscribe to the natural world. The matrix code, for those who take a more laid back attitude to life. All you need are the eyes, to view it so.
