A Series of Tubes

Ok here’s my birthday wishlist for 2006:
(my birthday is 3/9)

• The Cingular SLVR
• The Fantom Titanium 250gb External Hard Drive (I can pay for a part of that)
• A set of headphones (surround sound or wireless, preferrably) with a microphone
  (like this one)
• iTunes gift cards ($15, $25, $50)got one
• Trillian Pro
• more RAM
• Pretty much any tee-shirt, hat, or sweatshirt from ThinkGeek (Darker colors are better, XXL or XXXL).
• Windowblinds 5 full version or Object Desktop
• A graphics tablet, check Amazon.com for good ones.Got one! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
• If all else fails, any amount of money above $10 would also be welcome. I gotta save to buy my mac…got $95! Happeh.

Most things in life….priced.
(Use a Mastercard)

Love, Laughs, and Linux….priceless.
Not all good things cost money.

This is a really good video made from taking a clip from The Matrix: Reloaded and the Star Wars Kid (A kid with a metal pole dancing around prentending it’s a lightsaber). The guy put the Kid over Neo, to make it look like he’s beating up the Smiths with the pole…

[EDIT: I’ve taken down the movie from here because it’s giving me this security notice thing…just click the title to see the move! (or click here)]

This tee-shirt is great. It follows the standard cliche of “I ____ and all I got was this lousy tee-shirt” with a funny (and ever so true) twist. Go liberals go!

(While you’re checking that out, also take a glance at the hilarious Dick Cheney shirts!)

*Hee hee…I guess it’s actually spelled ‘liberals’, not ‘librals’ 😛

This is crazy. Yesterday my friend and I watched a bunch of home movies on Google Video of 2 french guys blowing up computers and stuff (sometimes with bombs, sometimes with tractors, sometimes just by removing the heatsink), called Extreme Overclocking. I thought that was cool until I found the 5 ghz Project. These guys rigged up a liquid nitrogen/compressor cooling system for their computer and managed to get up to 5.25ghz without it overheating. That’s crazy. The fastest processor I’ve found on the market is a 4ghz CPU for a few thousand bucks. 5.25ghz is crazy. Crazy. Ridiculously crazy. Man.

Boo hoo. My server has (once again) stopped working. Some IP issue. 🙁

Well, it’s been a while since I added to this list, but here’s another item that I REALLY WANT: The Ampco 7920 German Type Sledge Hammer. It’s got 23.79 lbs of smashing beauty. Perfect for smashing computers. Plus, it’s non-magnetic, so you don’t have to worry about messing up your hard drive while smashing it.

Holy crap! I can do a 3-ball cascade, but this is just crazy. Really. Watch it.

Yesterday, the Uru community recieveda letter from Rand Miller, announcing the official D’mala Shard for Uru. I’m on there right now, and it’s amazingly populated. The great part is, all you need is uru to get on. No authentication key (which you cannot buy anymore) required! Woot woot.

Today I was accepted to the United Shards, a group of Uru admins who gather online to discuss Uru matters. It’s cool, because it’s really the third-to-last step in completing my Uru server setup. The last two are registering the server on the official list, and getting an adminKI. Those will both happen soon!
