I run a bind nameserver both at the office and at home. Got into that habit because of things like this.

Wow. It has spread clear to the north-east since I last looked.

This DDOS is yet another example of why I refuse to kill our local, non-cloud stuff.

I can definitely tell it is centered around the southeast. That's okay. One more excuse to not fool with too much today.

I wish they still made movies like that. And, no, I don't mean "Re-imagined remakes" of those movies. That stuff is tripe.

Movies with a strong but subtle plot. Great acting. Not treating the audience like five year olds and over-explaining everything.

Today's movies are too influenced by bean-counters and metrics. Not enough 'art'.
