    Mandelbrot Fractal Zoomed in to 6.066+e228 = Hypnotic

    Haha. Jonathan Coulton (the guy behind Portal's Still Alive) has a song about the Mandelbrot Set and it is awesome. I just posted a line from the song.

    Mandelbrot's in heaven, at lease he will be when he's dead.

    Ted Stevens killed in plane crash

    Now that there are solid news reports, I was wrong, it was the NASA director's son that survived. Ted Stevens' son wasn't on the plane at all.

    Does the FBI Care More About Copyright Issues than Missing Persons?

    I think this is more low hanging fruit than a reallocation of resources. I'm sure its easier to track down "pirates" than it is to track down missing persons. Regardless of what is actually happening, it certainly isn't good PR.

    ASUS O!Play Air Media Player

    Good looking product. You mentioned a few times throughout the review of firmware updates. Will those be from the cloud or will you have to have direct input with a USB stick or memory card? If they can push updates via the web, like XBOX Live or the Playstation, it's a lot better looking...

    Ted Stevens killed in plane crash

    It's a sad story but one that happens all the time. Fortunately, his son and others survived the crash.

    How Does the Original Doom Fare Today?

    I have purchased this on steam, XBOX Live, PSN and my iPhone. I still play it all the time. I contend that it holds up very well. The play is still awesome.

    StarCraft II Causing Graphics Cards to Overheat?

    This seems sillier the longer it goes on. I'm interested to see how this "fix" works on your system.

    StarCraft II Causing Graphics Cards to Overheat?

    Black Andy has had issues with his install. He continued to get BSODs in Windows 7. I suggested that he update his video drivers and I think that has remedied the problems. I haven't heard from him concerning the overheating but I can certainly see the system crashing if the video card was...

    Posting this from my new Gentoo machine

    No. Not at all. Most of the work is done by the developers. I just stand the site up in IIS and troubleshoot where needed. Concerning using Linux full time, it's the only way I can force myself to learn it. If I have my Windows machine up and running, it's too easy to fall back to it. It's...

    An In-Depth Look at openSUSE 11.3

    Solid read Rob. It's nice to see that the regulars in the distro community are still releasing quality software. At any point did you feel that this could replace your Gentoo install or is that still your flavor of choice?

    Happy birthday Doomsday!

    Happy birthday man. I hope it's a good one.

    Could Universal Notebook Power Adapters be in Our Future?

    I like this idea. I wouldn't mind seeing 2-3 different sizes of adapters though, for varying levels of power requirements. I liken it to a gas station. You can try and fill your tank with diesel but you can't get the nozzle in because it's larger than the gasoline nozzle. This would prevent...

    Quick impression of the HAF X

    Rob, I made the comment about the plastic because I have been in love with the Corsair cases since I first saw them. I love how they look and everything about them... aside from the price :) Concerning the wheel, I wonder if they sell replacements. I also wonder how difficult it would be to...

    Posting this from my new Gentoo machine

    Most of corporate uses Red Hat or Windows. I have been wanting to learn Linux for YEARS but have finally taken the plunge. Aside from work and playing games, I have migrated 100% to using Linux. My notebook is running kubuntu and that's my primary machine while I learn to ride the Gentoo...

    Blu-ray: Dogged by delays, will it still have its day?

    I don't know if upper scale players include a HDMI cable but they damn well should. I go to a place called Meritline.com for all my cables. You can get 3 six foot HDMI cables for around 10 dollars from time to time so keep your eyes open and you can find great deals. For every Meritline...

    Posting this from my new Gentoo machine

    I choose Gentoo because thats what you have been using. It's a bitch but I at least got it installed. I plan on getting to know it better over the next couple of weeks. My personal laptop is running Kunbuntu and so far, I am enjoying it. I have been running it for a few weeks now and am...

    So I'm a noob when it comes to Linux. Any other users around here? I know Rob is all about it but who else?
