Remember the old days, when you could just sell your old laptop on eBay and buy a new one? Apparently those days are gone. Read about Bruce Schneier’s troubles, then feel the pain of the horrible misadventures of Timothy. I was considering trying to sell my laptop on eBay and getting a netbook. Not now.
My name is T.F. Torrey, and my mission is to write things worth reading, to get people to read them, and to get a little better every day. This website exists to connect me and my work to my readers and the world.
