LifestreamThat is what I call winter. Finally.
Besides shovelling snow, wandering through the icy woods, playing Warcraft 3 and writing a very non-essential report in social psychology, nothing is happening really. Everyone seems to be on holiday, thus no dev. on any of the projects. The harddrive is still MIA in the goddamn Netherlands. *sigh*

Like so much else this season it is a matter of faith I suppose. I’m thrilled by the possibility but sad that the task has been left with questionable organizations like the Raelians. I suppose that their faith and determination could very well speed things up compared to government funded operations BUT had any legitimate […]
You know you have too much time on your hands when …
.. you search out old Hasbro Transformers toys.
Everyone remembers the Transformer robots, right? “More than meets the eye”. They were an enormously successful series of comics and toys in the mid 80s.
Ok, anyway. I remember once when I spent an entire day […]
NewScientist magazine has begun summarizing the year in science.
2002: The year in medicine and biology

And we bring our bare backs to your villainy. OK, it’s not a cataclysmal negative event, but it is as tedious as ever.
Is there actually a point to xmas presents? Maybe. The idea of giving and receiving is something that is quite puzzling.
We give stuff away and we get things back. And that takes us […]
The problems are just falling over me it seems. Now the sleeve bearing fan on the chipset seems to be failing after just one year.
This is however not necessarily a bad thing! Why? Because chipset fans are controversial. They produce extra noise and provide very little extra cooling. I did a web search and came […]
It’s so typical for the European distribution of electronics. Release date is currently 15th or 19th of January. Just great, now there is DX9 but no games that take advantage of the technology and few hardware solutions that have the power to back it up. I’m still waiting …
I almost forgot to make a note of this. I got my first order ever from LensWay.com yesterday and overall I’m very pleased with the concept. It took only about two days for the package to arrive and they did not require a written proof or prescription.
What can I say? It’s big, really big. Almost too grandiose up to a point where you kind of loose interest in two little hobbits. This is also what fans of Tolkien have pointed to. Furthermore, the biggest change as I feel from the the first movie is the splitting of storylines. Now there […]
Still no replacement unit. And the RMA status page still says “received but not shipped”. I’m kind of disappointed with IBM by now … I mean, why is it so difficult to find a replacement unit? From what I’ve understood many of the RMAs have resulted in brand new. So needless to say, this delay […]
