At 6’6 as a software developer, I live with a bad back every day – but what can you do? Here is a video about your very own spine and how to make it happy (while keeping your geek lifestyle).

Monday, April 27th, 2009


This has got to be one of biggest collections of humorous action shot photography around. There are some absolute pearls. There is even some Kiwi netball action, although those pictures look like fakes!
Starcraft 2 Mod For Starcraft
Monday, April 27th, 2009
I found this sweet little write up on gameriot which details a bunch of dudes trying to make a mod for SC which essentially skins the game to look like SC2!

Sunday, April 26th, 2009I think realistically this product saves a lot of water as far as washing up is concerned.

Ubuntu 9.04 Released
Friday, April 24th, 2009
Horray!
Two of the things they’ve been pushing in this release are the new (‘faster’) ex4 file system and quicker boot times. Here is the official technical overview from Ubuntu.
Unfortunately I don’t have the time or the inclination to be a Ubuntu test subject for the first week post-release, although they’re generally pretty good. I think I’ll wait a good few weeks to see if any major issues arise before I take the plunge.

Left 4 Dead – Survival Pack
Thursday, April 23rd, 2009
The L4D survival pack (the free expansion) will have been released by the time you read this!
It adds a new mode called survival which is a shorted version of the game (they say 10 minutes) in which the survivors face wave after wave of zombies. The aim is to survive for as long as possible, with the time survived being the measure of a teams success.
You can read more about it on the L4D blog!
