Dec. 28th, Nemesis

Star Trek Nemesis

I just got around to watching *every* Star Trek movie ever made. Which is not a lot (10, to be exact), especially considering most are basically just your regular Star Trek episodes streched over two hours. All except one.

Nemesis is the latest and greatest Star Trek movie, the emphasis on the movie part. While it's prequels (and indeed, the entire franchise) focused heavily on sociological and phylosophical questions, which is all well and good, this one is just a great movie.

They do all the stuff they never dared before, like huge starships ramming into one another, and in this one scene, Data *JUMPS* from one half-destroyed ship to another, which was just such an awesome thing for him to do (he is superhuman, afterall, and this was his first real show of his abillities).

It's a real shame more movies aren't being made, they just got it right with this one and they quit production plans.

Dec. 20th, LANparty

Me and a couple of guys have been talking about doing this since before summer, and finally we got around to synchronising our schedules and actually do it. Basically, what we did was, we took our computers to this big house in the middle of nowhere and we played games for two days straight. Unlike this other party I went to a week earlier, this one had no drinking or loud popular music, but it was just as exhausting.

I won at pretty much anything they threw at me, but even when I didn't it was fun. There's just something about wasting the guy sitting next to you with a flak gun that does it for us nerds. It was fun.

Dec. 14th, Worst night of my life

I am having the absolute worst night of my life in the history of Worst Nights of Somebody's Life. I came down with a high fever yesterday and managed to knock it down a few notches with excessive sweating. I was almost OK come bedtime.

But then... For the past 5 hours I was absolutely sure I was going insane. It was the worst feeling, let me tell you, and I'm being dead serious. Instead of the usual uninterpretable halucionations, which can be kind of fun, my brain was stuck in a feedback loop of crunching numbers.

The numbers were five figured and the process involved placing the number in a particular order. The thing was, just thinking of that number spawned a bunch of other numbers, which would make my head hurt until I had done away with them. But they never stopped...

I'm putting this down to the excessive coding I've done in the past month (well, the high fever probably had something to do with it as well). I'm sure I haven't conveyed my true feelings well enough, but let me assure you, you don't ever want to fully understand... It was insanity.

Dec. 12th, Coolest GIF Ever

120 coolest gif ever

I was just browsing some websites looking for certain news, when I came across this fantastic gif animation. It looked like garbage at fist glance, I mean how many stick figure animations have you seen in your lifetime, but something grabbed me and made me look at it long enough to realise it was special.

It probably won't mean much to you if you don't have an affinity for the image staring at you from the top of this page. See if I care. It's a pretty basic joke presented in such an over-the-top fashion. It's a thing of beauty. Even if it is ugly as hell.

22. Nov, Makeover

Makeover

If I had ever been deciding on a sex change operation, I would surely abandon all doubts after seeing this precognition by Urska. If I actually went through with something like this it's pretty obvious I wouldn't be able to fool anyone. I'd be getting a refund on the procedure by the time they handed me a mirror.

I'd keep the hair, though.

This is probably not the most appropriate time to mention this (which is why I'm going to anyway), but I thought I'd share my amateur bodybuiding progress with you. I was optimistic enough to take measurements of various parts of my body 11 months ago, thinking I'd notice a difference in a year or so. Well I decided not to wait a full year, being insanely impatient and all, so here are the results.

My weight has gone from 86kg to 96kg, which is an 11% increase. That'd be fine if it were just muscle mass, but no such luck. Still, I'm told I've progressed nicely so here are some more numbers: my upper arm has grown from 34 cm in diameter to 39cm, (14%), my chest from 94cm to 101cm (7%), my thigh from 60cm to 66cm (10%). My forearm has grown 11% and my neck brings up the rear at 5%.

On average that's almost a 10% growth overall, which either means I'm getting really fat, or buff. In reality it's neither, because at my height of almost 2m changes like this aren't as noticable. Perhaps someday...

Nov. 13th, Bartender

Virtual Bartender

Here's something to piss off those feminists who are without an ounce of appreciation for humour.

So basically, all feminists.

Those of you able to see things for what they are will enjoy the geniuenly funny, although admittedly erotic situations you can get the Virtual Bartender into.

http://www.virtualbartender.beer.com

Besides the obviously perverted commands you'll try to get her to follow, I suggest "change", for an interesting twist, and "fight" for a shameless attempt at exciting the geeky freaks among us.

Feel free to experiment on your own and let me know if you find any other interesting things to do with her.

Oct. 31st, dubya tee eff!?

Now here's something that makes you go WTF for the duration of the experience. This is probably the most amazing thing I've seen in a while (and tah intarweb holds some seriously screwed up shit). I don't know what the purpose of this activity is but whatever it's all about, this girl is the authority - on stacking cups into little pyramids, and back. Little pyramids, people. Out of cups.

Cupgirl, state champion (WTF!!)
