RFID (Radio Frequency ID) chips emit a little radio signal that contains digital information, and this signal can also be used to track them. They’re versatile: perfect for warehouses to track cases, scary as hell when they talk about putting them in people. They’re stupid when in credit cards. Stupid and dangerous and […]
You know what, “nerd” may not be the proper term. Maybe it is for me, I build computers, I drool over new technology, I am a nerd, but I’m referring to my being a fan of Buffy and Angel. I suppose this doesn’t make someone a nerd in the traditional sense. Anyway, […]
You know, I was thinking about how having a blog is kind of like having a pet, in that you have to be responsible or it will get neglected. But then I realized, having a blog is nothing like a pet. You can’t ignore a pet, it will bug the shit out of […]
There’s nothing like the great pleasure of checking your web site’s traffic, seeing a fairly large number, getting slightly excited and then seeing that it’s just a bunch of web crawlers scanning your site. It makes me feel quite meek, especially because the “fairly large” number really isn’t large by most standards.

Well, Super Tuesday has come and gone, and I’m a little ashamed to admit that even though I knew it meant nothing (either Hillary or Barak could have had a clean sweep and it still wouldn’t have guaranteed either a nomination) I was still on the edge of my seat waiting to see who won.

Okay then, it’s […]
So I was bored today, looking through the archives of some of my favorite websites, and stumbled across this little gem. It’s from writer/director Josh Becker’s website, Beckerfilms.com, which I check daily for updates to his “Ask the Director” section.
The article is his personal history of writing machines, from typewriters to computers, and it’s […]
Hey, everybody should check out Tom Green’s new talk show. He converted his living room into a talk show set. Although it’s very odd, it’s also very interesting. He’s had quite a lot of cool people on–Joel McHale from the Soup, Bob Saget, Dave Foley. I’ve been watching it since almost […]
So check out this video of a Christian disproving evolution:
Some of you might suspect something fishy by the end, maybe the term “wrath of my loving God” threw you off, or the prayer at the end. Well, if you had any questions as to whether or not this guy is a HUGE Christian, here’s […]
Just checked LMMS site and saw that a new version was released (about 2 months ago). LMMS is a Linux music app that acts a lot like Fruity Loops. It used to be terribly unstable, but with the 0.3.0 version I haven’t got it to crash yet. In the previous version, simply opening one demo […]
