You are looking at the shaft. A large red block, four units by one unit,
is above your head, dropping slowly. It has its long edge horizontally
aligned.

> turn the block

I don’t know how to “turn” something.

The block descends lower.

> rotate block

The block rotates in mid air, now with the long edge vertically aligned.

The block descends lower.

> move block left

The block shifts to the left.

The block descends lower.

> drop block

You aren’t holding the block.

The block descends lower.

> move block down

The block drops into the narrow gap, filling the four columns. The
columns flash twice, then vanish, dropping the blocks above them down. A
musical tone is heard.

A square grey block, two units by two units, is now overhead, slowly
dropping.

The Lotte Chocopie is soft biscuit with the good taste of enrobing chocolate and more chewing marshmallow.
We are happy to serve the Lotte Chocopie with your pleasure.

Engrish is a little less fun now with the advent of the spellcheck, but it can still raise a few laughs.

Sun! Go away sun! You’re not welcome here.

(Note: this is referring to the big hot thing, not the person Sun.)

If I sit just right with the metal kitchen screen door reflecting the signal, I can jack in to a nearby wireless signal at home. Of course, only being able to use wireless in a single place sort of diminishes the usefulness of a wireless connection, except for the fact that it’s uplink downstairs…. useful when upstairs is too hot to be habitable.

Hurrah for data sharing!

I have to ask what is the point of having a house which is too hot to live in.

Why is there an abbreviation for ‘at’? It takes just as long to write @ as it does to write ‘at’. And when you type it, you need to press two keys (shift and 2) just like you do for at (a and t). The benefits just aren’t there. If it weren’t for email it really wouldn’t justify its own key.
