This [link] is the video made by others based on a comic sketch at a game show.

This [link] is the same clip, but allows you to see the comedian as he is going through it.

I just came across this today while doing my daily reading. With Apple’s iTunes 7.0 release and their new games, people thoguht it was a great extension of the iPod line. But appearently, people have been doing this with Doom for over a year now. Who knew :P

Strange word association game – it may not work, since the moron got himself fark’d (almost as bad as /. effect), however when it does work it’s pretty cool.

Apple’s iTunes Day
September 12, 2006, 6:51 pm
Filed under: emorgoch, news clippings

For those of you that haven’t paid attention to the media circus that was Apple’s product announcement today here’s the summary:

1) New version of iTunes (version 7). In the US, you get full movie downloads, with international movies hopefully coming early in the new year. (Ya right, still waiting for TV downloads in Canada). The new interface is actually very slick and a much improvment (atleast on Windows) over the last one. One thing I did notice though: 100MB of Memory used. Download here. Oh, and one more thing: for fifth generation iPods, we now have much better games to play on them, but they’ll cost you money ($55 for the set of 9). I’m just waiting for someone to download them, hack them, and make them freely available.

2) New iPods: We get the 5.5 Generation video iPods (now in 39 and 80GB capacities with brighter screens and longer batteries, for a lower price), new iPod nano’s that feature the same aluminum colours that the old Mini’s had, and a new iPod Shuffle that looks more like a matchbook.

3) Project iTV: a MacMini like set top box which is suppose to allow the supposed wireless streaming of media files from your computers to your TV (very useful with Movie downloads). Not shipping yet, just the project was announced, which is admitely unusual for Apple (to annouce products before they’re released.

Doesn’t mean you are smart. This is quite possibly one of the most amusing things I’ve found on the net.

Not because of what it is, but because it is sanctioned as a valid advertisement method by a major Canadian University.

Culture in your pocket

Many of you probably don’t read The New Yorker.  (Hell, I glance at it probably once every few months!)  But I assure you, the magazine is filled some some high quality culture and information.  This is why I find them releasing their entire archive (from February 1925 up to April 2006) to be so fantastic.  For a mere $300, you too can own a part of this wonderful part of American culture.

Well…not really. Ninjitsu is just one of those things that takes years of hard work and endurance to master. For the lazy, here’s the next best thing. Creating Shurikens as if by magic out of ordinary paper. I wonder how long it’ll take before the TSA starts banning folding paper on airplanes.

Now with Sudoku

Yes, it’s popular. God knows why. They have books of them…they even have little $10 pieces of sh*t that gets you playing it.

Hell…they even have more expensive pieces of sh*t that’ll do it too…and then a bit more. Acer is trying to cash in on the follies popular trends of today by incorporating Sudoku into their next line of Digital Audio Players [DAP]. So while it will continue to suck because it’s trying to be an iPod [and fails at it], it will suck even more for pandering to the mindless idiocy of the peoples.

Interesting look at the things that people starting out in college this year don’t know, since they never had to experience it since it happend before they were born.

I wonder what our own list would look like?
