Happy Skynet Becomes Self-Aware Day

Apr 19 2011

In Terminator movies, the military created Skynet, an artificial intelligence which becomes self-aware today, April 19 2011 at 8:11pm / 20:11.

Then it turns against the humans… carnage, mayhem etc.

The below made me literally LOL today (this Skynet thing was trending on Twitter earlier , it’s not that weird)

A few weeks back, @SkyNetOperative started following me on Twitter. Today we engaged in a back and forth.

This is its bio (the code basically means its watching the internet, and saving it all for future use)

So I said I dropped into its computer, and took ownership of its accounts and information.

It came back with uh-huh, I just kicked you off the server, undid your changes and copied your hard drive to a USB key.

Note it knows what kind of computer I’m on.

I replied by making it its own account.

I’m Going to Start Bolding More Things

Mar 27 2011

Think I’m going to start writing in bold more. I think I’ll start with this post.

Had a great weekend. Went to a favourite bar Friday, The Barking Fish, which I’ve mentioned I’m trying to rank in Google for. 58 Beech Avenue Cambridge, Ontario 519-658-4451

That’s Tammy, who you should tip well because she’s awesome.

Woke up in suburbia yesterday, which I like because like, I do not own a shovel. Garbage day is every day. It’s different.

Went walking in the afternoon and dinner out, hung out with the girls, and didn’t touch my computer or phone last night once, it was nice.

Picked up these in a vintage shop… Stella McCartney for Adidas with the tags still on, in my colour for $17 come ON.

I always forget how much I’m online until I’m around places and people who aren’t at all as much, this usually happens outside the tech city bubble I live in. I have a Just a Minute video coming together in my head about that.

Have been really liking wearing a watch again, it’s been years.

Did music reasearch for the next video I’m going to edit, ‘The Imperical Sand Dunes of Star Wars‘ (working title). If you don’t edit you may not know that music for your videos is a real pain, because it has to be royalty free, which is not free, and YouTube music fingerprints everything it uploads, you have to be careful.

Been making lots of notes for my upcoming speech. Still leaning towards no slides.

Also this week I submitted a word to Urban Dictionary, “Gigilala” click here, and I stumped Scribblenauts with the word ‘blog’, and that’s my new profile picture.

Sunday cleaning included re-adhering my front hall mat, ha – This is My Hack.

Night walk.

I Love the Barking Fish Cafe in Cambridge ON*

Feb 7 2011

It’s a special place, and I’ve only ever had a good time. Kay a really good kinda hazy time.

The people are non-judgy fun and the place just let’s you be you… and if you wanna get into some horseplay by the pinball machine after a game of pool, they’re like, unaffected. And if a old friend appears, who just got a big promotion you’d been cheering on, the Fish doesn’t care when you get rowdy because you’re so excited.

You’ll end up with only two grainy photos because you’re too busy having fun to take any, and know how I know it’s a good place? I left my purse unattended on the table, something I never do.

It’s a terrific spot… so if you go, don’t be a douche.

* part of the reason I’m doing this post is because there is nothing online for the Barking Fish, so I’m trying to rank in Google for it, because that’s funny.
