It was a hobby of mine a long time ago, back in like 98 or 99, but I lost interest in it around 2002, back when I lost interest in a lot of things. That's a topic for another night, though. If you maybe harass me about that later, I could talk about it in more detail here.

Today is the Washington State Primary! Did you vote? I did.

I also went to my dad's office to drop off an old router that wasn't being used and while I was there, I was gifted a computer, which I am currently installing Gentoo on. Right now, it's compiling (and it will be doing this for a while longer) so I'm studying. Today we learn about Microprocessors, RAM, BIOS and CMOS.

The big issue that I always struggle with when getting a new computer, what to name the new machine. Historically, I've named computers after characters and things in Serial Experiments: Lain. I want a new naming scheme. Actually, I think I going to name it Scheme.
