It's Friday. Normally I'd be swilling some cheap rotgut in a fancy glass, but the holiday has waged war on my insides.

- Fremen, ??? sand
Mine? I get to just fucking give my ally money. I subsidize their violence. I'm Daddy Warbucks with bloodlust.
Sietch Tabr (Fremen)
Habbanya Sietch (Fremen)
Tuek's Sietch (Guild)
Arrakeen (Atreides)
Carthag (Ya Boi Daddy Warriorbuckeroos)
So. Uh. There goes my alliance. There goes ALL alliances.
The Fremen also get to surf the worm wherever they want. Fuck me.
:C
This time, WE are the diet of worms.
Metaphorically. I'm the Emperor. Everyone is poor compared to me.
Fucking Dune, man
But it is expensive. The Guild lost a LOT of troops. Daddy WARbucks felt that a little.
The Fremen are being... weird.
If we win in Habbanya Sietch and Sietch Tabr? We win.
Which they do. They fend off the Guild at cost of all their troops. Mutual destruction. Love it. (I hate it).
Fun fact! I can't renegotiate my alliances until another worm card comes up. We've had almost all of them come up already.
No reason I'm thinking about new alliances. No reason at all.

So I got out some CF cards and noticed something odd about this one. Do you see the weirdness?
How the fuck is a CF card "USB Enabled"?
So CF cards are a weird beast that act as either a PCMCIA card or an ATA/IDE card depending on a mode pin.
They're definitely not USB.
And it's not like that weird SanDisk card I have which you can fold in half and plug it in as a USB device.
It turns out the reason for "USB Enabled" is because it's a Lexar drive from the jumpSHOT era.
This is a normal CF card in most cases, you can use it in normal CF card readers and such

Flip it over, bend it in half, and now you can plug your SD card right into a USB port pic.twitter.com/jeBefP2xU1
