Interesting

Check out that link up there. I'm a little torn about the whole thing. On the one hand, fuck pirates. It's my livelyhood on the line if they steal my software so what do I care if they lose their documents? I don't. On the other hand, I don't have a problem sharing some software/games with close friends. They're close friends and it rarely leaves them. One of the links in the article makes a similar argument, except they care about not deleting things from people's harddrives (Mac users are a little off anyway). I'm sure the guy regrets what he did because it was obviously just a childish "if you're going to steal my software, I'll mess you up!" response. I really do like shareware (it's the next best thing when open source won't work) and wish it could get a bigger following. Heck, demoing software is pretty much the only way to get me to buy any of it.

In other news, new Rancho's on the truck! Stiff sum' bitches they are. It's become painfully obvious my truck needs an alignment as well. Going to maybe schedule that for next week or something when I get my fluids changed up. I wish I knew more about the automobiles so I could do this stuff myself... and maybe have a better idea of what mods are better than others so I can have my truck a really long time. Unfortunately, science is a mystery to me and we is dumb, so I'm stuck relying on word of mouth and expensive repair shops. Kind of embarrasing, but if it keeps my truck running good then I'm all for laying down the greenbacks. It's a love afair, really... mainly me and my truck.

All I need now is them 33" BFG ATs, nerf bars, and some exhaust fixups. Smooth frickin' ride there my friends... smooth frickin' ride.
