Hard, wet crit. The boys took out A through D grades, with me winning B. Great times.

Shot some Vikings Supercrits racing the other week in Canberra.

Everyone’s favourite @mome_raths Paddy pulled out second, then moved up to B grade this week and got second again. I’m stoked for him, but it’s making me think about giving up and growing my leg hair back. Getting dominated!

Simon’s a champ. For those (three of you) who don’t know what I look like, second photo, second wheel with the FML face.

LET’S JUST ADMIT THAT YOU ONLY BECAME A HIPSTER BECAUSE NO ONE INVITED YOU TO THE ‘COOL KID’ PARTIES IN HIGH SCHOOL. YOU MIGHT HAVE THE SEXIEST FIXED GEAR EVER OR THE SICKEST RECORD COLLECTION ON THE EAST COAST BUT YOU BECAME THIS ELITIST PRICK, THE EXACT SAME KIND OF ELITIST PRICK THAT DIDN’T INVITE YOU TO TARA NEWTON’S BIRTHDAY BASH, BECAUSE YOU WEREN’T ATHLETICALLY INCLINED OR VERY SEXY.

INSTEAD OF BECOMING THIS ALL-INCLUSIVE PUBLIC FIGURE WHO EMBRACES THE DISILLUSIONED YOU GET A HALF-SLEEVE AND A CAFE JOB AND TALK SHIT ON EVERYTHING IMAGINABLE LIKE YOU INVENTED IT, ESSENTIALLY BECOMING THE THING THAT MADE YOU, IN SOME SAD SORT OF OUROBORIC FEEDBACK LOOP, WHEN YOU SHOULD IN FACT BE THE MOST WELCOMING, TOLERANT PERSON ON EARTH, KNOWING THAT YOUR ENTIRE PERSONALITY IS BASED ON BEING EXCLUDED FROM THE THINGS YOU WANTED SO DESPERATELY TO BE A PART OF AS A TEENAGER.

DON’T GET ME WRONG, I LIKE YOUR BIKE, BUT GO FUCK YOURSELF.

“Peter Bright wrote a good piece earlier this week at Ars Technica, documenting his attempt to buy a MacBook Air-like Windows laptop (he doesn’t want an Air running Windows using Boot Camp because he doesn’t like Apple’s U.K. keyboard) and finds the experience confusing (too many models to choose from) and expensive (comparatively-equipped machines from Dell, HP, and Lenovo cost considerably more than an equivalent MacBook Air).”

Daring Fireball: The New Apple Advantage

Nothing has changed in 7+ years since I first purchased my iBook 12” G4. It was ~$AU1200 cheaper than a comparable small (<13”) monitor lightweight laptop.

My real problem with Apple is that this doesn’t translate into their higher end products, e.g. you can buy a $4k PC that will slay, at least on specs, a $10k Mac Pro and there’s no real explanation for why this is when they can produce an air that can sell for a lot less than anything close on the PC front.
