“I’m on a Mac” is just like “I’m on a boat” only it’s not funny and it’s about computers. I cannot tell a lie. since it isn’t really funny, it might as well be about anything… Kohler faucets , bicycles, you get the point. I’m on a Schwinn. I’m on a Schwinn. And really, the original track doesn’t specify the boat… it doesn’t go “I’m on a waverunner” or “I’m on a seadoo”. Well, at least the production is good.

super-zoom-videocamera

For the average consumer, a video camera with a decent level of magnification is probably somewhat rare, I suppose. I don’t honestly know since I’ve never shopped for a video camera. I can only assume, since this camera has a gigantic lens on it. It’s perfect for people who like taking video of wild animals, but don’t want to worry about hunting down term life insurance quotes for filming bears. This is a cheap-o camera, that I would probably pass on buying- unless you like throwing your money away. That sure is one big telescope lens… are you trying to compensate for something that you’re missing?

There’s really not much to say beyond the headline- Intel has developed a CPU that also functions as a graphics processor. AMD has been talking about making one for quite a while, but Intel actually did it! Just goes to show- talk is cheap!

This processor uses less energy and less space than the traditional setup.

Let’s face it: France isn’t the most popular country in the world… they’re probably just a smidge more liked than America. But, I must admit to seeing pure genius when I see it. And this is it. Some French super-intellect has come up with a brilliant idea- combine wind turbines with electrical towers. If you think about it, it makes perfect sense- it’s already connected to the power grid, the land is already being used as an electrical utility, and the electrical tower makes a nice cage to boot!

Mountain Maniac: He’s a lumberjack, and he’s okay. Actually, Mountain Maniac is a retro styled game that is being served up on a platter by the good guys at Adult Swim. You know what I have to say about that? Sweet Dizzle. I’d like to give the people who made this some dough… can you take a phone check ? No? Well, it’s the thought that counts, right? No? Dang.

So, this guy makes art out of dust bunnies. Being the owner of two cats, I happen to be the proud owner of many piles of dust bunnies. If this guy can recreate a living room , then I probably have enough dust to recreate several south beach miami hotels . I’ll be sure to make it look like a scene from Dexter. Unlike the maker of this .. ahem… “art”… I don’t think of it as recycling. It’s taking the pack-rat mentality to a whole new level.
