Just a quick vid to demonstrate the setup and use of software based KVM, Synergy. Synergy allows you to share a keyboard and mouse (say from your desktop) to other PCs (like a laptop).
Synergy is an FOSS app available for Windows, Mac OSX, and *nix OS @ www.sourceforge.net or through your friendly neighborhood linux repository.
There are many blog outlets featuring a post on Synergry, but Tombuntu.com, IMO, has the most complete review and setup instructions.
12 count Binder Clips (Large) - $3.99 and a legal size wire paper tray - $8.99 (I already had bent it into the shape I wanted before realising I should take a photo. Oops.
Hooks.
Hooks installed under desk.
"Man goes in the cage. Cage goes in the water. Shark's in the water..." Wait, what? I mean... Put the big pile of shit into the basket.
Binder Clips (Large) with screw and washer... you see where this is going?
Cage is hung from hooks. Cables are held by binder Clips (Large) which are screwed to underside of desk.
"This is a cheeseburger. In a can. It's a cheeseburger in a can.
I honestly can't figure out how I feel about this: is it the greatest achievement of mankind thus far, or is it an abomination of foodstuffs that deserves to be hucked back into the gaping maw of whatever food processing plant it was spewed from? I just don't know what to think anymore. Would you eat a cheeseburger in a can? Keep in mind that it'll look nowhere near as delicious as the example above when you pull it out of the can.

Oh, and to the enlisted, yes, a crate of these delicious snax iz already en route to Corinto to be loaded directly onto the sub for our next "purely scientific" voyage. Muahahaha... ahem, i mean "yum!"
Today marks the 50th Anniversary of Lego's. Those little bastards have made it to the big Five-O.
It's funny to me because just the other day I was in Target, (LOL), and happened to stumble across the Lego aisle. It brought back memories of all the buckets of random pieces that I had accumulated over time. And of course stepping on a Lego in the dark and having it pwn your poor foot. Spending hours and hours making these wonderfulmasterpieces only to have someone break it.
But now things have changed...
As i strolled down the aisle i noticed something extremelydifferent about the Lego's. there were less pieces???
Why I asked my self?
And that's when it hit me, America has grown stupider, so Lego has made there puzzles easier.
It's a sad day now to know that for 50 years they had to change their product to support the ever growing stupid people of America.

Dear Cube,
Shave, then put down the horn.
As a former "clean up the crap in the middle-east by killing lots of people" field rep, I would pass along the learning that blowing a horn and wearing a Fez is a great opportunity to find out if "Mo" was right about the 72 virgins.
Initial surveys of thousands of "crispy critters" says "Mo" was wrong. Most survey respondents just fall apart when probed with a bayonet.
TO: ENLISTED From this point forward, in addition to blogging about videogames and the culture that surrounds it, lets start blogging about tech and gadgets and the way that they interweave within our lives.
We, of the Hello Kitty BubbleGum DeathSquad, are constantly exposed to myriad wondrous technologies here on our secret island lair. Whether it be a new death-ray, weather machine, EMP disruptor, cell phone, or the hottest new laptop. We *do* love games too, but we should take the opportunity to share all of this other very cool stuff we run into on a daily basis.
So by my decree, we shall double our traffic of infidel jackal subscribership. So thats like, i dunno, 5(!) additional infidels!
and so shall it be...
Now if you will excuse me, i need to see if my pants are dry.
