Weird people have lived everywhere

Even tough I've been living in the historical Castle District of Budapest the last two years which is more famous for its tourist sights and being the birthplace or residence of numerous world-renowned artists, politicians and scientists rather than its high-tech-affectionate population, I can't seem to be able to avoid the unmistakable signs of nerds living in the same flat before me. Last year it was CSS on the bottom of the dining table, now it's a dryer made out of Cat5e cables:


I wonder what's coming next.

(By the way, the Twitter destination driver is getting some affection: I've received the first contributed patch cleaning up some build-related issues, Bazsi, the main author of syslog-ng called it the "Neatest syslog-ng hack ever" -- for which I feel deeply honored and proud -- and I've heard of at least one guy outside the company who've actually tried it. I aim market dominance on the platform of Twitter clients, so if you haven't already given it a shot, please do so :))
