Yes, for those of you who didn’t know it, I play World of Warcraft from time to time.
MMOGchart.com from time to time attempts to chart the number of subscribers for the various MMORPG’s (Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game) out there. It’s kinda cool to check out.
Here’s the one with WoW on it: MMOChart
Here’s something interesting that I stumbled across this weekend…
This guy creates custom weapons and lego mini-figurines:
Gizmodo has an interview with the guy that goes into more detail about how he creates the products, which I thought was pretty cool.
Apparently, a new study has shown that cat owners are less likely have heart attacks.
Cats Help Prevent Heart Attacks
This probably isn’t helpful for the Garfield minus Garfield guy.
So, what happens if you take a bunch of Garfield strips and, well, take out Garfield?
That’s exactly what happens here.
They are interesting to look at, if not a bit… odd.
I’ll admit it… I was weak.
Like a middle aged man suddenly forgetting all about his wife and fantasizing about spending time with the young, gorgeous 20-something girl that has shown an interest in him, I was tempted by the seductive thinness of the Macbook Air.
Sure, my Macbook Pro and I have been through a lot together, but still, there was something about that “thin” goodness that appealed to me. I tried to rationalize why I needed one, and for a while, I was able to resist.
But then, I wandered into an Apple store and touched one…
In all seriousness, if you’re a road warrior and are considering purchasing a “thin and light” notebook, you really owe to yourself to go to an Apple store and look at one. The pictures/videos on the internet simply don’t do it justice.
It’s simply an amazingly thin and surprisingly sturdy little machine, and it had to be mine…
Let’s face it, we mac users are spoiled.
For years, Apple has created laptops that have been a marvel in both design and engineering. Both the Macbook and Macbook Pro overall have changed little over the years because they are just that well designed.
Even the competition has finally realized that design makes a difference and are putting a little more thought into the look of their machines.
Late last year, the rumors started floating around that Apple may release a subnotebook. Everyone started dreaming up what that could be. A lot of folks wanted Apple to bring back the 12″ Powerbook: a machine with all the power of the MBP in a smaller package.
And, if Apple were any other computer manufacturer, like Dell, HP, or Lenovo, that’s exactly what they would have done.
This has been making its way around the intertubes. Carnegie-Mellon has been doing a series of lectures called the “Last Lecture,” where speakers would talk about whatever subject they thought important if this was the last presentation they would ever give.
One of their CS professors, though, is dying, and this is his last lecture.
The video is nearly two hours long, but you’ll want to set aside enough time to sit through the entire thing.
Yeah, I know, there are probably a lot of other things you could do with that time, but you won’t regret it.
I suppose this is meant for the married folk out there, but funny for all.
If you’re ever wondering when you should stop playing that game, here’s a nifty flowchart that should help you.
Yes, that’s right.
You know your fifteen minutes of fame have started ticking away when:
Yes, that’s right! Act now, and you too can get the “Don’t Tase Me, Bro!” shirts online.
Now, imagine what would have happened to this guy if he had waited until this week and pulled this on Iranian president Amendi, Amaner, Amonalisa… whatever.
But, alas, maybe he can hook up with the “Leave Britney Alone” shemale and they put on a show together.
Still, the tee-shirt is classic!
Even better, the “dick in a box” shirt
