= Such Stupid Things =

Yesterday was pretty frustrating, as days go. Things were not coming up Jeff.

My late-night experiments a catostrophic failure, so when I got home I decided that watching last wednesday's Lost would be a fitting distraction. I couldn't find a decent torrent for whatever reason, and feeling an ever-so-slight sense of creeping guilt at my continued television theft, I decide "what the heck - I'll just *buy* it on iTunes".

So I did. And how was this act of unbridled philanthropy rewarded, you ask? With 500 megabytes of choppiness that wouldn't play for a damn. Turns out, my laptop from 2002 doesn't even meet the system requirements for playing videos on iTunes. Wtf is that? This only grants more ammo for the new computer movement. And I've got a birthday coming up..........
