Slow

A 3-post collection

Glacial is an insult

To the tune of The Internet is for Porn from Avenue Q:

The internet is so slow
The internet is so slow
Why can't I just make it go?

Things suck at the moment. They suck so bad that I'm actively thinking about hanging out at a mall with wifi and doing a portion of my work there.

It's that awful.

But I'm being patient for now. I'm almost positive that it's the kids' internet usage that spikes the bandwidth and slows the whole mess down.

I successfully posted the first chapter of Babes in the Woods this morning, and you can find it over here if you want to have a look.

...anyway, there's a collection, now, of stories where Ango McDango is the son of the crew. I just started it. I'll definitely be writing more.

Fingers crossed we get NBN real soon now.

Three concentric redstone repeater circles make a random signal generator. The rest of it is to take the signal to the lights.

When I finally moved on to build the next chamber, an asshat mob went and stepped on the triggering pressure plate, and damn near killed my computer. I’ve stopped all the circuitry, but
