Mind the gap
Filed Under Random | Leave a Comment
Gaps are dangerous and can cause terrible accidents. It doesn’t matter whether it’s an actual physical gap, e.g. the one between the platform and the tube train, or a more immaterial gap between, e.g., blog posts.
Here is a handy illustration of gapspace that you may wish to carry with you in order to safeguard your [...]

Water way to go…
Filed Under Random | Leave a Comment
Unfortunately, the many constructive things I could have blogged about today seemed to fly out of my head as I actually sat down to write something. Instead, have this pointless YouTube video of some random Minecraft multiplayer action involving water, spirals and water. And spirals. Oh, did I mention it has watery spirals in it?…
…Yeah, [...]

Party like it’s 4096
Filed Under Random | Leave a Comment
This isn’t new by any means (gosh… is there anything I post here which actually is?!), but if you ever wondered exactly what it was possible to do in just 4 kilobytes’ worth of computer program, check this out:

As you might have guessed from my lack of posts over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been quite busy with this “other writing” which I mentioned a little while back. What on earth could I mean? Will you get to see any of it? Does it somehow involve marmots? Who knows. I’m not really [...]

Thinking with portals
Filed Under Funny, Random | Leave a Comment
This is seriously dedicated stuff. I don’t know exactly who made this, but someone has created a brilliant copy of Aperture Science’s portal gun:
I love it! It’s even got authentic-looking wear and tear. Very professional indeed, and best of all it’s completely safe. Oh, and your cake is just through that doorway over there…

Your DNA… in space!
Filed Under PC, Random | Leave a Comment
NCSoft announced today that they’d be immortalising video gamers by launching a so-called “Immortality Drive”, a time capsule containing the digitised DNA of selected Tabula Rasa players – along with copies of their in-game characters.
To make the project slightly less geeky, the capsule will also contain some of “humanity’s greatest achievements”. NCSoft are inviting everyone [...]

I did get the latest Millenipede teaser ready yesterday, but after receiving literally some emails relating to the 1.2 beta I got entirely sidetracked and forgot to post it
So here it is:
Mmmmm. Nice pixels But I wonder what those strange icons that have appeared on the status bar mean? And how on [...]

C’mon ref! Are you blind?
Filed Under Funny, Random | Leave a Comment
Not blind, just drunk.
Perhaps it was Sergei Shmolik’s first big match and he’d had a few to calm the nerves beforehand…
Oh dear. Someone give the poor fellow another drink!
