I was innocently surfing tonight when I was all too suddenly broadsided by a careening semitrailer of technological illiteracy. 03:13:48 Unknown_Player(1): if i stick songs on itunes from a cd, do those songs take up a lot more space than an mp3 03:14:07 I: that’s what an mp3 is 03:14:14 I: a song that was … Continue reading

My post about that freaking sweet Portal song by Victims Of Science got me thinking that the world needs way more videogame tribute music. So I fired up my sweet professional audio synthesizing software (read: GarageBand) and coughed up a turd. When I linked Jordan to my newest brainchild, he said: “I don’t want to … Continue reading

This city of Munich is beautiful. The upkeep is remarkable, the overall effort the city exerts to make sure it stays beautiful is really worth a tip of the hat. Sometimes, when I miss a tram, and have to wait up to two minutes for the next one, some street cleaning crews will stroll by, … Continue reading

OK, it’s been awhile since I’ve plastered lolcats all over the place, so give me some leniency here. This picture freaking rocks. Oh man, that just made my day. That dog is absolutely getting rocked. “Pwn3d,” one might even be driven to say. But that expression of sheer horror is yet bested. The poor kid … Continue reading

Great article in the Wall Street Journal today. Misleadingly entitled It Dawned on Adults After WWII: ‘You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out!’ (the only mention of the relevance of the War in the realization that kids are retarded and prefer their toys in their eyeballs is the increased incomes of the post-war economy, rather than, you … Continue reading

The friend (of the friend’s group) had written something about “Using inspiration based on designs found in nature,” and Jim strongly objected to this phrasing, suggesting it … Continue reading

I’ve never really been picked on for reading science fiction, but I’ve definitely gotten some weird looks. Fortunately, people don’t find it too weird, because at least it’s consistent with all the other freaky loser things I do, like listen to metal and run Linux. I live SF, man. But today I found another person, … Continue reading

I was really pleased to read about an article about a guy who took a hunting rifle and destroyed a traffic light camera. The cops were puzzled after they caught him, because apparently he’d never gotten a ticket from it, as one might have expected. Clark, now facing a $50 fine if convicted and loss … Continue reading

I love headlines you don’t have to think about. Or maybe that you don’t want to. The point is, if an article headline is good enough, I shouldn’t have to read the article. So a big tip of the hat to the New York Times for this little gem. Chicken Fat Leaks Over 20 Miles … Continue reading

The internet’s a pretty big place, right? Nonetheless, I let to think I get around. But somehow I’ve missed this gem for a year and a half. I’m glad I’ve finally found it. I know the first 30 seconds of the vid are boring, but they’re characterization. Hang in there. Certainly has me thinking about … Continue reading
