On the Motorola Droid's camera
"I did check out the camera. I have very little experience using cell phone cameras. So I guess I’ll say the Droid’s camera is far better than the Blackberry Pearl’s and far worse than my Digital Rebel."

From an IRC chat game of Mafia
I have learned a new online abbreviation, "rofd."
<testie> The werewolves have decided to kill nailuj24 with 1 votes.
<testie> Oh no! nailuj24 was the seer!
<testie> The sun is rising and a new day begins. The seer is dead, but the shooter has the opportunity to shoot someone now.
<nailuj24> rofd
<nailuj24> rolling on the floor dying
This is from the #linuxoutlaws chat room.

Quassel quotes
I'm trying the Quassel IRC chat client. It has some nice features, like showing me a "Chat Monitor" of all my channels.
It's like could standing in three rooms at once of a party and snickering at the juxtaposition of conversation.

Behind glass
"To an engineer of the day, using valuable computer time to simply enter text in an interactive text editor was unthinkable. It was the hackers who understood that interacting with the computer, rather than treating it as a hands-off behind-glass computation resource, was the way of the future."
-- "The Culture of the Programmer".
