Pete's Log: oit sucks

Entry #644, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 22 years old.)

stupid oit. Since yesterday, 9 times of of 10, when one of their modems answers when I dial in with esgeroth, it answers with this kinda high-pitched sound that modems don't usually make. pppd on esgeroth doesn't much like that sound either, because it'll panic after a few seconds of it. So dialing in has become something of a pain, since you need to keep trying until you get a modem that's not high on crack. But that's ok, there's a simple solution, I think: don't disconnect anymore.

Been doing some writing for a Mona paper. I still need much work on my technical writing skills.

I would work on comp arch stuff, but it seems most of my comp arch handouts are at school. So I'm gonna figure out the last few bugs in my shell instead. Then maybe bike to school later today. I was watching football, but lost interest, since there weren't any games on that I care about even remotely. And with pro football, after having watched as much football as I have this weekend, I have to care about the game in order to remain interested. College football it's much easier to stay interested even if I don't care. So now I'm listening to Rancid instead.
