I question the occurance of uppercase numbers that almost every font uses. How hard can it be? I want lowercase as they go much better to written texts than their taller kin. This is important, and would do alot to improve the screen readability.

I got some spam today. That is by itself nothing unusual, even though I usualy doesn’t get things encoded in Big5. It was a stroke of genius. I can’t understand a word, and there is no link to click. In short: all you can see are numbers, equal signs and letters, all in a glorious pattern of chaos.

Strangely enough, it doesn’t feel intrusive, or that it occupies valuable storage space. I wish all spam should be like this.

Addition 22:09: The spam is now printed and typset properly, ready to be pinpointed on a wall.

I’ve seen it about ten to twenty times now, but Office Space is still just as good.

-- Well you don’t need a million dollars to do nothing, man. Just take a look at my cousin, He’s broke, don’t do shit.
