Being alone tends to make you notice things that you may not have seen before.

Tonight I’ve been entertaining myself by walking past the vending machines in the hallway by the cafeteria.

All the vending machines are hooked up to motion sensors. To save power, the display lights shut themselves off after a period of time and the machines go into low power mode. When you walk by, the sensor detects your presence, all the lights flick on, the bill readers make a “whirring” noise, and theres a couple thumps and bumps.

It’s as if they’re saying “Hello Human. Look at my wares… aren’t they temping? Buy some now!”

Perhaps I shouldn’t be left alone like this.

In other news: the blaster worm is flying around the net. Do us both a favor and download the patch for your pc (leaving one less computer to get hosed by it).
