Still in school. Working in tech. Trying to do some other things. Yippee.
Great movie. Great scifi wrapped up in robots (who behave a lot like humans, but eh).
Let’s just get one thing straight. EVE does look like she was engineered by Apple, so you could say she’s like Mac or whatever. But WALL-E sure as hell ain’t Windows. He’s Linux straight up.
Mass Effect and Spore were reported as being released with a 10 day authentication scheme in order to prevent piracy. As in you would have to authenticate every 10 days.

I became fascinated with the PS3, and specifically the Cell processor when I discovered that PS3s were whomping PCs for Folding@Home processing. Stats as of the writing of this entry showed a total of 173,398 PCs and 39,388 PS3s, a lot more PCs as expected. However look at TFLOPS per machine and PCs [...]
