Check out this real-life Kwik-E-Mart full of Simpsons stuff. Also, here's some amazing pictures of the three gorges dam (some NSFW ads) in China. More info on that dam here. As of 2007, it is the largest hydroelectric river dam in the world, more than five times the size of the Hoover Dam.
KS sent in this link which shows off some impressive multi-monitor (and multi-PC) setups, apparently for playing multiple MMORPG characters at the same time..?
Tech-Report have a confession to make. Forgive me father, for I have sinned. I've been an avid PC gamer for more than a decade, but it's been months since I played games at a keyboard. Instead, I've been on the couch, controller in-hand, getting my fix on consoles. And it's been glorious.
Speaking of which, IGN have listed their Top 10 Virtual Console games for Wii. No matter; we still have a massive selection of games to choose from, and for those of you who don't have an encyclopaedic knowledge of every game ever released for the NES, SNES, Mega Drive and N64, it can be a little overwhelming deciding which games are worth the attentions of your limited finances.
Timbot sent in this cool carPC project. I created this page because, while there are plenty of CarPC (Car Computer, Carputer, whatever you prefer) installs out there, I could not find any well documented LINUX based setups. As you will see, with a little effort you can create a powerful (and useful) Car Computer. With the new version of my install, I have extended my CarPC's capabilities even further!
NeoSeeker checked out DDR3. This is a review of both Asus' P5K3 DDR3 P35 based board, and a review of Corsair's TWIN3X2048-1333C9DHX DDR4 1333MHz memory. We compared took the Asus and Corsair and overclocked them to the very limit of what the RAM could take, and compared it against DDR2. You'd be surprised how well DDR3 stacks up!
Iain notes what he calls some sensible reporting on the recent London "terrorist" attacks. Now we have this; one terror-clown badly burnt and nobody else hurt at all. An event about as significant as the teenagers burning cars down my way - and don't I wish those little sods got as much police attention and jail time. The jihadi threat has seemingly sunk to animal-lib levels.
From Paul: This map is the approximate journey of [Makiko Sugino] - so far. She's been riding a Yamaha 250 all over the world, and she's still going. Awesome pics and details. Wow, what a great trip.
