I was conversing with a group of friends the other night, and the question of "Which is bigger, the Millenium Falcon, or Serenty?".
The 15-some minute conversation that ensued discussed each vessel in great detail. I couldn't help but say "So, this is what life was like before the internet..."
To give relevance to that phrase, the locale where said discussions were taking place has no wi-fi, and little to no cell service.
"If we had internets, someone would have looked this up, and the current line of inquiry would have been over 10 minutes ago."
It were amusing evening to be sure.

Slightly related topic, this article on how Warp Speed works, was equally interesting (though, absurd and preposterous).

I recently had the opportunity to play around with a production ASA 5505. I must admit I was far less intimidated by it than my first experience with them, though packet-trace struck me as a bit of a red herring.
To that end, I'm tempted to track one down in reasonable shape to play with at home.
More strangeness, I found that the ASDM manager app doesn't appear work over RDP which struck me as a bit of a stupid hurdle, though that may have just been my laptop.

I'm also pleased to report, Airsoft Kitty is making an expedient recovery.

Toodles for naow.
