    Beautiful Gmail

    April 26, 2019 /

    If all you need out of Gmail is the e-mail functionality, check this out: Darwin Mail If you want to try something similar with a Chrome extension that changes the look of Gmail and was created by the former lead designer of Gmail, you can try Simplify Gmail. This is what I’ll be trying first, since I use Hangouts and sidebar categories a lot.

    How do you like them jackfruits?

    March 31, 2019 /

    My favorite urinal in the whole world because peeing while staring at swollen jackfruit pairs is somehow fascinating. This is at an all-you-can-eat hot pot/grill buffet that has unfortunately changed owners, upped their prices, and is no longer worth going to. RIP Mum Aloi Ban Din Dam… Your 99 Baht buffet was the best in town!

    Max, Into the Arms of America

    March 27, 2019 /

    Max is going to stay with my sis in Washington for a couple months. He’ll be there until the end of the last term of 2nd grade there to see what it’s like. We’ll see what happens from there, but anything is possible. We can uproot and move within a couple years, if that feels like the right thing to do. We aren’t really keen on splitting up the family in different places while the kids are so young. But Max wants to go, and hasn’t wavered at all, even while playing with Mina for the last time in a while earlier tonight. Meanwhile, my days are filled with keeping…

    We are Cosmic Buddha

    March 19, 2019 /

    Aadab arz hai. They are not us, yo : Cosmic Buddha has never charged for music, mostly because we know we suck (although that obviously does not stop others). We have not released music for many years, but we have the Real Media files, several mixtapes, and Y2K coding errors to prove we were first. Our band predates our blog on this domain by 10 years or so, and it’s been going since 2003. Also, here’s some album art and gig posters from back in the day: Seongbulhaseyo. UPDATE: Really?

    Marchall Amps AKA Weiduka

    March 18, 2019 /

    I was online looking for a cheap amp to replace my current cheap one (which has bust a capacitor or something and picked up an oscillating ground loop type hum) when I stumbled onto this beauty of a knockoff: At first glance, I thought it was a legit Marshall product made for millennials, because with the similar font, my brain just skipped over the odd letter. But this is only part of the reason this is one of my favorite knockoffs this year. The other lies in the specs: Wongchongkrong noise is the sound of the People’s high-end AC power filter… Wongchongkrong for the people! WONGCHONGKRONG FOREVER !! Buy your…
