n-strike vulcan

so nerf is making a battery operated, tripod mounted machine gun that fires three darts per second.
belt fed.
i can’t even imagine what reloading this baby is going to be like, assuming you can even find all the darts.

just a thought

i want a zen v with a flip-out usb dongle. let my thumbdrive have a screen so i can look at the pictures onboard and play the videos and music and etc.
that would also be nice on mobile phones, albeit harder to pull off due to the weight issues. flip out mini-usb and [...]

sporecraft

apparently what i need out of spore is not a full game to plug creatures into, but a town where i can just have creatures i’ve created run around, be cool, and hang out. maybe acquire furniture and make them live together in house. train care bears to ride around on deep crows. [...]

re-up

if i renew my verizon contract right now, i can get a smartphone for $50. this is better than what i’d get by switching to at&t, and vastly cheaper than the umpc’s i want. ergo, it’s actually practical.

who watches the watchmen

you do! quickly. before they take it down.
[update - 9:24pm]
and we’re done. no surprise there.

the transmetals hung on the pegs for six months to a year, an entire endcap all that time at [...]

things i think should be

one - drivebys with the katana on the motorcyle.
two - google maps for gta 4, with street view. tag all the pigeons, stunts jumps, weapon locations, and etc, make them easy to find and thereby acquire. allow customization, hooked into your profile, such that you can see what you’ve acquired, what you haven’t, [...]

stargate continuum trailer

looks much much better than ‘ark of truth’ turned out to be. hundreds of goauld ships, giant battles, jack, baal, time travel, what’s not to like? and it’s being released on blu-ray.

from elsewhere

‘The Indy trailer drew cheers. Not so much the Hulk and Dark Knight.’
hulk looks too much like the first one. either don’t make cgi hulk 30 feet tall, or make him smart hulk, or make him fight iron man, thor, or fin fang foom. but i can’t get behind dumb hulk vs the [...]
