דניאל Tech for His Glory

A stock that’s -56,800,209,148,329,600,000,000.00?? Wow, all I need is buy 1, and I’ll be the richest man alive. Got this from Digg.com.

As most of you know, I had a very long Saturday last week. What with 65bit’s 50th episode, and another awesome Arrow service. It was a late night, I was tired, and I knocked out the moment I touched my bed. I woke up super early the next morning to pack my bag to book into camp, and as I was unpacking it, I found a small Postpac package to “Daniel Tsou, Beloved of the Father ” and “from: Open Heaven”. I was surprised of course, but I was in a hurry too, so I thought of maybe opening it in camp. Good thing I didn’t, cos inside of it was a 4GB Sandisk Ducati thumbdrive!!


There was no note in the package, no letter, and the geek me plugged it into my mac hoping to find some sort of note or something. Nope. Nothing at all. But boy did that thumb drive make my week. I called my caregroup, Hei Man, Farinelli and Jerrick, but no one knew who it was from! It turns out that my bro Edwin had won some competition, got it for free and decided to bless me with it. Man, am I blessed!! Thanks so much bro!! To be honest, the biggest thumb drive I have is only 128MB!! That’s right, the founder of Tech65 only has a 128MB thumb drive…

In other related news, Edwin has also written us a brand new Jingle for 65bits! It’s pretty cool sounding and finally something unique specially for us! We’ll probably only use it from Episode 52 onwards because NTT wants to do some levelling on it first (an audiophile is always an audiophile…) I’m not gonna spoil it for you, so just wait for it next week! Thanks again bro!!

After recording episode 45 of 65bits yesterday, we heard about a slashdot party was going on later that day. Jerrick had to go, so NTT and I sticked around. At about 3 pm, the first of the slash dotters (I don’t know if that’s the right way to call them) arrived, and I realised it was really a geek gathering, so I decided I’ll join in, and crash the party! In the end, only 4 of them turned up, but I had fun chatting with them and telling them all about Geek Terminal, since it was their first time there. Emlyn Philips (3rd from left) even asked me if I was a share holder for GT since I kept saying good stuff about them!

They’re pretty cool people, really, and definitely more geek than me! Chen Yang (most right) even runs Ubuntu as her primary operating system on her notebook!
