I’m just setting a bookmark to this Mac Mini Media Center post. I may have to pick one up and try that some day.

I spent the past week or so working my way through 5 years worth of Questionable Content back archives. It’s a web comic strip.
On April Fools Day, this super geeky comic that I love, XKCD switched comics in a round robin “prank”. I read a few, and was kind of interested in the characters. I got busy and forgot about it, but then earlier in the week, I was reminded and decided to start from the beginning.
I think I liked it generally. A lot of the drama seems pretty goofy, and many of the characters (particularly the 3rd tier characters) are basically the same unrealistic character with like 1 quirk to make them different, and in the case of parents really unbelievable. Still, it held my interest, and there are a bunch of Dune references that I love. Really, more things should reference Dune.
