Ping Pong

I received a portable ping pong set (the important part is the net that extends and clips on to a table), but Talore refuses to play with me. Clearly we need to have a game night at some point to try this instead of just playing rock band/guitar hero.

The paddles feel smaller than standard, but my table is significantly smaller too, so I’m pretty sure that would work out, and it does make everything fit in a fairly compact carrying case.

Hacked!

Apparently my GMail account was accessed from South Korea several days ago. Time to change passwords on everything that linked to that email account…

It’s nice that GMail flags unusual activity (and tells you about it highlighted in red at the top of the email page when you log in), but I’d rather have an email sent to me so I get it on my phone instead of having to log in through a browser.

I also like that my bank requires verification when accessed from a new computer even with the correct password (it sends a text or calls the phone number already associated with the account). On the other hand, online access to my bank currently seems to be down.
