   Uh, I tried upgrading to 10.8.5 in the middle of nowhere with bad Internet and it broke my OS X install. Fortunately I have the installer mirrored in a different volume and installing OS X over the hosed volume fixed it. Ran into the same p

   Accents? Yeah, I have three for English alone and switch between them depending on the other person I’m talking with. I’d also argue that, as a non-native speaker, personal identity is not part of your product. Accent-free speech is like ch

    The last time back to Vancouver, the CBSA guy actually had to be convinced that I don’t have additional clothes… I showed him a hotel business card, then he postulated that I could have left clothes in a hotel! (I got in.) Another gem: “No

    Just got off from a Singapore → Taipei Scoot flight today; sat in the quiet zone. Compared with the other flight where a family placed their loud baby right behind me, this is pure bliss. I’ll happily pay up to $500 for guaranteed silence.
