LifestreamCheck out the review. Apparently Roger Ebert is not very pleased with the way the second movie turned out. It is not Tolkienesque enough. I wouldn’t know since I’ve never read anything by Tolkien. 3/5 is the verdict from Ebert anyway. I will go see the movie on friday and then I will publish a [...]

I just picked up Indesign 2.0. A bit late I know. The good news is that it adds / fixes one of the most annoying shortcomings of the previous versions - object transparency! Now, finally, you can place and paste objects from Photoshop and have the full set of parameters preserved if you’d like.
Basically, this [...]
I found this fascinating view on religious belief, Ending Biblical Brainwash. “For better mental and cultural health, it’s time we classified religious fundamentalism as a psychological disorder”.
This is by far the best description of religion I have seen in quite a while. And I couldn’t agree more. I think it is time we took [...]
Stuff like this really sickens me. Apparently it is NOT ok to critizise the regime in the US, and especially not the president. And whatever you do, NEVER wear the Anti-Bush T-Shirt to school.
Who would have though? I always imagined it was the “land of the free”. Now that the society show it’s true colors, [...]

I find this amusing in a number of ways. But according to psychology dogma [...]
According to the HollywoodReporter, MGM is being sued because of their sloppy or possibly fraudulent DVD cases. Some guy bought discs that he thought were widescreen (and said so on the case), but ended up with cropped versions. Hehe, it’s time to pay up …
And Roger Ebert doesn’t like Star Trek anymore. What else is new? Ebert is not the first one to say it - Star Trek needs a vitamin injection, and fast.
Now, this story has also reached WIRED magazine. Denmark Bills Users for Downloads.
Essentially, what APG did was to take the IP of unknowing users on Kazaa and eDonkey and then trace them back to their ISP and demand that the ISP would reveal the users’ real life identity. And of course the cowardly ISPs buckled [...]
The returned defective hard disk drive was received by IBM but the replacement hard disk drive has not been shipped yet.
This is sure a tough choice. It’s time to act in the gfx card matter, but DX9 keeps eluding me. The 9500 isn’t in stores yet and it is the only mid-priced card with DX9 support. While it is not much faster than the Ti4200, the latter obviously lacks both DX9 support AND good AA.
And [...]
