Retinal Scanning Displays – this is immensely cool

new scientist has tons of cool tidbits

sea levels rising? (7-13m in the next 500 yrs) unpossible! gee dubya doesn’t believe in global warming!

If sea levels were 10 metres higher than today by the year 3000, it would cause the inundation of a total area larger than the US, with a population of more than a billion people and most of the world’s most fertile farmland.

the new scientist also has a little article on ogg vorbis.

cool, there’s gonna be a moby play music video dvd. moby diary entry. maybe it’ll be as cool as the beastie boys criterion. well, probably not, but the moby videos are pretty cool.

ok, tested this on ns4.76/x and msie5/mac and it looks like the new design will need a bit of work. branches to load completely new files is relatively easy (gotta do something w/ my spare cpu cycles).

now these are some good charts from toms hardware. check out the 3dsmax rendering scores for the p4. list of all the p4 stuff has been ongoing at jc-news since this weekend. bottom line: sucks ass, gets whupped by 1.2ghz athlon.

slightly new design, testing it out for a swing. cheating right now b/c i’m too lazy to do the include/archive bizness, but it should be cleaner once i do. using css floats for columns just because. eventually there may even be useful stuff on the left column.

hmm, just noticed the left column just doesn’t work. it’s ugly… um, oh well.

oops, looks like my memory sucks because i don’t get any sleep, and not just because of the paint chips.

something about when mozilla edges past 100mb of memory used really pisses me off…

the somethingawful guide to posting on forums is great.

6 megapixel kodak pro cameras selling for $2500 on closeout. nifty for those w/ money burning a hole in their pocket…

i’ve been listening to nelly furtado‘s single “i’m like a bird.” it’s pretty neat. dig the strings.

it’s not called random for nothing. – coming soon, updated design, now with even more css.
