From Allusions to Illusions
Over at the Atheist Experience blog they do a wonderful comparison of the Batman Begins movie with the Sodom and Gomorrah story. It’s a bit long but the argument that Batman Begins is a retelling of the story with a humanist twist is fairly complelling.
So I’m in the process of moving through the upgrade chain (new gaming rig, move desk top to old gaming rig, move server to old desktop, etc) and so was installing Ubuntu 8.04 onto my desktop and all is going well. At some point I plugged my Sansa Express in to recharge and move some […]
I find myself often wanting to move a file in a directory tree to same place under a different parent directory. Usually this is because I have a directory tree that I want to separate into different bins depending on criteria. The upshot of which is that I’ve written python code similar to the below […]

I got lucky and picked the right pre-gen character […]
Saturday night in the 8pm slot I played Misspent Youth written by and run by Rob Bohl. This was an unexpected favorite for the con. I had high expectations for PTA and a few other games, this one I actually skipped over on my first pass through the games on tap. I […]
I woke up all early so I could make the 2pm Prime Time Adventure game run by Jeff Collyer. This is the first time I’ve played PTA but I’ve heard a lot of really good things about it.
I thought the pitch session was a lot of fun. We had about 4 broad ideas […]
This is the first of the Dexcon 11 posts. Think of it as sort of an introduction to the con before I start talking about the games I played. This is the first con I’ve been to since I was in highschool so it’s unlikely that I’ll talk about anything anyone who has been cons […]
I really like these T-Shirts. Sadly I think many will misread them.
Another post of the Nephilim Song 4.0 design series.
