The Minority Report…It’s What’s for Dinner

I’m a Mac Now Long Shot

This could suck ass. The A.V. Club has an interview that they’ve done with Justin Long of the Apple I’m a Mac vs PC commercials. He talked about his work on various projects but the one that we are most worried about are the continuation of the “Hi I’m a Mac and I’m [...]

Chrome Quakes

Everything is explained in the clip but just imagine how Castle Wolfenstein would look!! :P
In all seriousness, Google Chrome is fucking awesome just because they are pushing the edge (beside Opera but people actually install Chrome…) and that is pushing all the other browsers. Even IE9.

The new crop of HTML5 web browsers are [...]

Beaming Straight to Your Ass

George Takai is the shit. I’m not against gays and really don’t pay much attention to their issues but even if you are a hardcore fag hater, you have to admit that George Takai is the shit.

Quinthar Agrees with Popular Blog

Looks like I’m not alone in my opinion, based on the Guardian article on James Lovelock, that he is a socialistic idiot.
Anybody who calls
for a suspension of the worlds’ democracies in order to fight climate
change is an idiot. Don’t get me wrong — it’d take that (and more) to
actually do anything about it. But the [...]

Tact Filters

This is an essay written by Jeff Bigler back in 1996 after speaking to a friend at MIT. Jeff thinks that “geek” can be substituted for “nerd” and I agree. Very interesting and explains a lot of my interaction with people including my geek friends. What do you think?
All people have a [...]

Deep Fried Roof

Now you can have your nuggets and eat them too!
Scientists reported the development of a “smart” roof coating, made from waste cooking oil from fast food restaurants, that can “read” a thermometer. The coating automatically switches roles, reflecting or transmitting solar heat, when the outdoor temperature crosses a preset point that can be tuned to [...]

Humans are Stupid So Suspend Democracy

Humans are too stupid to prevent climate change from radically impacting on our lives over the coming decades. This is the stark conclusion of James Lovelock, the globally respected environmental thinker and independent scientist who developed the Gaia theory.

“I don’t think we’re yet evolved to the point where we’re clever enough to handle a complex [...]

Bohner Pulled

I think this is unfortunate and sad for both parties however, Eric Schmidt needs to get on the right side of the privacy issue.

Eric Schmidt might advocate for making information “even more open and accessible,” but not when it comes to his mistresses. We’re told the Google CEO’s aggressive lawyers brought down [...]

Bots 1 – Cancer 0

Look close. You may be staring at the end of cancer. Those tiny black dots are nanobots delivering a lethal blow to a cancerous cell, effectively killing it. The first trial on humans has been a success, with no side-effects:

The most amazing thing is that you can send as many of these soldiers as you [...]

Mexican Coke vs American Coke

One of the many things I’ve discovered here in Austin is Mexican Coke. Prior to moving here, I wouldn’t of had the slightest clue as to what it is. Now I can’t get enough of the stuff.
So I’ve decided to have a battle between regular Coke and Mexican Coke.

Intelligence is Like a Knife

Intelligence is like a knife. If you are intelligent, you are at a clear advantage against people who are not intelligent. But if you are intelligent, and another person is not as intelligent, but the other person is willing to train harder than you, the other person will very quickly overtake you in ability.Your high [...]

Snoverkill

Ditto.
Right now, activity on the sun is extremely low, causing our climate to cool significantly. That’s exactly what the sane voices have been saying to counter the Anthropological Global Warming morons. CO2 has little to do with the climate compared to the effect of the planets single, overwhelming source of energy – the sun.

I Can Hear You Making Woopie

When even leaving a note is too direct…you folks with wireless networks still named “linksys” or “trendnet” are clearly missing out on a priceless opportunity to piss off your neighbors.

Turkey Rewrites Human Evolution

Standing on the hill at dawn, overseeing a team of 40 Kurdish diggers, the German-born archeologist waves a hand over his discovery here, a revolution in the story of human origins. Schmidt has uncovered a vast and beautiful temple complex, a structure so ancient that it may be the very first thing human beings ever [...]
