Been messing with fractals, the last few days.  Here’s one I particularly like.

It’s about time. Pre-ops to mangoat for finding it.

I love when I can post stuff that’s nerdy, yet I can still show to my not-quite-as-nerdy friends.

Here are simple logic gates, done in dominos.

I still get that twinge of jealousy with all his equipment that would have cost a pretty penny back then.  Not to mention his parents never seem to care about him wardialing thousands of calls on their line.  My parents freaked out everytime a computer would dial me.  But how else would I join those wionderful BBSes and get my TradeWars on?

WarGames: A Look Back at the Film That Turned Geeks and Phreaks Into Stars

The DeLorean company was reformed when Texan entrepreneur Stephen Wynn acquired it.  They currently have a ton of leftover parts that they will be making into new DeLorean DMC-12’s with all kinds of new options.  Plus they plan to manufacture completely new cars and models from new parts in the future.

Headquarters is in Houston, Texas, and I plan to visit soon!

Jalopnik announces the DeLorean and tours the facility.

The previously mentioned 20 minute gameplay video… in HD:

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:

The Call of Duty : World at War trailer was just released, along with the revamped callofduty.com website.  The new game will take place in the Pacific theater of World War 2.
