Subject: SSDs are too fast

I've gotten my new PC up and running. I'm using a spongey wireless kb+mouse
and an old TV as a monitor, but it's running. I even have networking! I don't
have ethernet to my room, and no wifi card for the desktop yet (it's on the
way) but I can use my phone as a bridge.

The main thing that strikes me is that it's actually kind of freaking me out
how fast it boots up. Admittedly part of that is a lack of the cruft that a
Windows installation seemingly inevitably collects, but part of it is that
this is my first SSD.

I don't really have much else to say at the moment - I've been wrestling with
core architecture for a less-hacky rewrite of my phlogging tool some, but have
otherwise not done much the last few days. Hopefully I can think up things to
ramble about at least a couple times a week!
