@jamesshelley Seeking “satisfaction” is a much more fruitful endeavour than seeking happiness.

@Naina Sure; but it wasn’t pointed or anything.

via Twitter for Mac in reply to Naina

@Naina People pay more because they can AND they need to. Nobody “wants” to pay more, and people who can’t, can’t.

via Twitter for Mac in reply to Naina

Ppl charge more because they can, not because they need to. Nobody wants to have to “need to” charge more, bc then there are bigger troubles

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: proving a point is the worst reason to do something.

@codelust It doesn’t. I manually block them, and sometimes legit people get caught in the fire cuz I’m doing it too quickly.

People don’t like personal jokes from strangers.

Yep, just as I had suspected. It wasn’t the ports on my MBP that were dying but the USB connector on my Logitech.

And my Razer is here. (!)

It’s satisfying and actually a little amazing to see something turn into/become what you had envisioned.

Chinese #DotA2 at its best. 75mins and still continuing.

via Twitter for Mac

And the first ever #Dota2 lag spike?

via Twitter for Mac

I must say. #HoN is still a very visually graspable game. #DotA2 has a long way to go to be visually comparable.

via Twitter for Mac

Hero models look good. UI not so polished. Beta > Valve. #DotA2

History is being made! #DotA2

Big day for the guys at @own3d, now that Valve is streaming through them. Gratz! #DotA2

via Twitter for Mac

Valve is being very punctual about this. I like. iG vs. eHOME is up. #DotA2

via Twitter for Mac

Yes I’m going to flood Twitter with #DotA2 updates for the next whatever amount of time. No, I don’t care. Yes, fuck you.

via Twitter for Mac

The stream is now live! (There’s nothing there, but OMFGIMPSYCHED) http://t.co/0qXLqz2 #dota2

@Naina That’s phone calls. Mails can be deferred/pushed back to your convenience. @tferriss

Venting on Twitter has kept many people alive. Because I would’ve killed them otherwise.

Why are we so big on symbolism? Especially symbols you have to WEAR on yourself and are irritating as fuck.

Now to break the news to my family that I’m a Buddhist so that I don’t have to wear a string on my wrist the whole day.
