Froyd's Rants

Iteration³:

Brewing beer.

Got a nice spiced ale coming up in about 6 weeks. Hopefully by then I’ll have a keg system of sorts and a place to put said keg.

It’s good times.

Sweet, sweet vindication.

They finally have opened up the official transcripts. That means all the edits have been accepted, the bill has been paid, and I’m homefree.

I expect in about 2 months to have bound copies of my dissertation (I’ll take pictures for you all).

It feels really good.

All professional ties with California are now over.

really CNN?

the Warmest Decade EVER?

I quote their headline “NASA: Last Decade was Warmest Ever” and the first line of their article “The first decade of the 21st century was the warmest ever on Earth according to data released by scientists at NASA.”

Really? Considering that the earth is over 4 billion years old, and they’ve only got data since the 1880′s, one would assume it’s safer to say “Earth is warmest since 1880s”

But nope, it doesn’t fit the narrative of holy shit the earth’s screwed we’re all going to die if they TELL THE TRUTH.

BSU library network lockdown

Holy bejeezus, it is impossible to connect to any computer/network in this library if you’re not a student or if you don’t have an ethernet cord. And if you use a computer for catalog searches, you need to sign out.

Of course, the good folk at the help desk have extra cables that they were kind enough to let me borrow to connect.

I forgot mine at home because I brought my backpack instead of my computer case.

Note to self: pack an extra cable in the backpack.
