Make Love Not Spam

2004.11.30

Remember the SETI screensaver, where everyone’s screensaver is used to search or extra terrestrial life? Well the guys at Lycos had a good idea: They’ve created a screensaver that spams spammer websites. What’s the idea? To shut them down with worthless traffic. Man, that slogan sucks.

This is one of those things where everything seems pretty simple, but in reality it is excruciatingly difficult to calculate. The Gallery of Fluid Dynamics.

Changes

I thought I had posted this long ago, but I didn’t. The ever good-linker Waxy posted it two days ago and reminded me how good these images are. Variations, is a collection of CG images of the same objects each renderd in a different style and illumination. Pretty cool if you ask me!

Rizzatto Knows a Thing or Two

This Montina table is like the most intelligent way ever to expand a table.

Talk about a nice car; all bare, only essentials. The Ariel Atom is a single seater with two places. Shit, my Clio sucks.

Hot Bods

While in Saint Etienne one of the things that caught my eye was Vincent Ackermann’s work. I wanted every single piece he was exhibiting… I felt my every fetish answered.

Can You Feel It?

I for one welcome our Epic overlords… In the near future (2014) Google and Amazon merge to form Googlezon. Sit back, relax and enjoy the future.

For those of you who want a sculpture and have a little room to spare.

Ah 1, Ah 2, Ah 1, 2 , 3 , 4

Here’s a semi-fun app: Ripples in Time. Just wish it had more choices…

Alegre Despertar

This is for all my Venezuelan friends… A huge gallery of the images, songs, and info on all the cartoons we watched as kids. Enjoy.

Fine Grain

What a 4000 Mega Pixel photo looks like: The GigaPXL Project
The colors are something else.

Reloaded

2004.11.22

If you are kinda bored today why not just go and fire some shots? Live-Shot allows to shoot real fucking live ammo through the magic of what we call the internet. Aim and shoot. By the way they are planning a hunting version where you’d kill some animals. Can’t wait for the Cops version.

Fast and Danger

The Segway has very cool technology, but nothing can be done to shake its dorky stigma. Now they are developing the Centaur, a four wheeled “fun” vehicle… I thought it was the same but with more wheels…Then I saw the video, I changed my mind.
I noticed the possibilities (note to Segway): give it to some badass-tattoed-rap-listening-kids on a vert and sponsor the Xgames. Then everyone will want one.

Know Knot

Sometimes tying shoes one way isn’t enough. Ian’s Shoelace site is just what I needed back in 1984 when I was trying to do the lattice on my Converse All-Stars.

Lurker No More

2004.11.19

Today is a happy day for me… I am finally a member of Metafilter, quite possibly the best site there is. I’ve been reading it for a while and their signups have been closed for two years! Yesterday Waxy posted that it was open, and I ran to their signup like a madman. Oh, and by the way AskMefi is an excellent resource for Q&As.
