Diablo III is coming

The big announcement that Blizzard has been keying up to is indeed that Diablo III is in development.  This makes me happier than Starcraft 2, although I’m sure  will enjoy both immensely.  The official Diablo III website has a 20 minute gameplay video already, and it looks really great.  The bread and butter of the Diablo series for me are the animations and immersion, and the video seems to show that in spades.  Not to mention new sparkly weapons and multilayered creatures that come at you from all sides.

Two classes are revealed in an interactive way, the Barbarian and the Witch Doctor, with more to come as they draw out expectation.

No release date is announced.

Here’s the teaser trailer:

Firefox 3 to be released Tuesday, June 17th

As the title says, not much more to say. This is a huge update with thousands of changes across the board, both on the frontend and backend… so pretty much a brand new browser. I’ve tested a few of the builds, but a couple of my extensions wouldn’t work with 3 (yet), so I haven’t used it for my main browsing.  But I love the auto-bookmark search addition, which was my favorite feature of the Flock browser.  Plus it seems alot more snappy, and less memory hogging than Firefox 2.

Mozilla is trying to get a world record for most downloads in a day off the thing. See more at SpreadFirefox.

Old Hardware remixes new music

And I do mean old. I will say that I had almost this exact same dot matrix printer that I used for many many years. Kudos on using the Spectrum, but the amazing thing to me is that the hard drives act as speakers.

Here it is… the remix of Radiohead’s “Nude” :
