    When I was in my teens and twenties, I used to believe that if I thought of something that I’d never heard of before, I must have been the first person ever to come up with it.

    Now that I’m older and the Internet is ubiquitous, when I have those moments I go straight to a search engine. And even if I’m not the first, I still feel pretty good about discovering whatever it is for myself.

      ‘I bet you could combine Wine and QEMU’ was on there for a while, and oh thank god, FEX is serious business now.
