Konstructenlust

It builds, slowly.  It could be anything.  A stutter in framerate.  A texture tear.  Just the feeling that things could look better when I’m shooting Skaggs in the wilds of Pandora.  (Yep.  Still playing Borderlands.)  So I think about my current setup, and I have to wonder if there’s anything else I can do, other [...]

Another Ode

Twas the night before Apple, and all ’round the net,
All the rumors were flying, but no real news yet.
Speculations were read, with the utmost of care,
With the hopes that the keynote, soon would be aired.

New Phone, Part I

I just picked up a Nokia e71.
Currently it’s in the “new toy” phase of gadget ownership.  I’m enamored of its styling and snappy performance. Battery life is probably not indicative of real world performance as I am constantly fiddling with it.  I’ve uploaded a video and a pic to flickr as a test and it [...]

Street Fighter IV accessories

Get the Flash Player to see this player.

I’m going to see how many times I can say, “surprise” in the first ten seconds.  Here’s the Tournament Edition Fightstick for Street Fighter IV.
It’s rather large.  I’ve been sitting on this video for a while, I actually got the stick a week before Street Fighter IV dropped [...]
