Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

People will never learn.

I think the % of people with unsecured WiFi is lower now than when I first started using WiFi in aught-three.

I think so, too, but there's always someone, you know? The network is named COOLESTNETWORKEVER (the asscaps are theirs, as is the lack of spaces).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The network is named COOLESTNETWORKEVER

See that, to me, says deliberate choice to open and advertise their network. The ones who don't know what they're doing always seem to call them "default" or "linksys".

I thought about that, and then I decided, hey, free wifi.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Yeah, me too. And I know at least one person who feels its his civic duty to leave his wifi unsecured.

Trust my rage

Kalliope is an awesome name.

Buca's, while crazy, has one of the best Ceaser type salads I've ever had. It has bacon!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

My computer is named COMPUTRON after a line in a Group X song.

Damn you all!

I'm in the car on the Southern side of PR with Joe. I'm starving *and* hating that we are still here. This Olive Garden/Buca/Carrabas conversation is making me even hungrier and more irritated about being here still (because none of those rstaurants exist here. )

I did that for a very long time (with all of our actual content protected, of course) -- but my sense of civic duty ultimately crumbled before the annoyance of getting constantly bumped off my own network.

(To be clear, I wasn't thinking of open wifi as trap, but as dorky cybersocialist idealism.)

My computer is named Titans Tower and my external hard drive is the Batcave. Lo, I am a dork.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I leave my Wifi unsecured because I'm lazy and live on the top floor of my building. I figure if someone really wants to scale the walls and steal Wifi from the roof, they probably deserve it. (Inside the building, everyone has their own network, and if someone's internet goes out and they want to mooch off me I'm find with that.)
