  • MegaMegaMonitor v100 released, now with support for /r/gilderguild



    Full announcement over here
    So yeah: I've just released the new version of MegaMegaMonitor, and it includes (among other things) support for /r/gilderguild.

    What does this mean? Well: it means that you can install MegaMegaMonitor and you'll be able to instantly identify your fellow Gilder Guild members anywhere else you see them on Reddit. โ€ฆ

  • MegaMegaMonitor v100 released - "suppress icon" option, slight CSS improvements, new build system, smaller download




    Hi all!

    I've just made an interim release of MegaMegaMonitor. Not many new features, but I've made huge improvements to the way that I build and release MegaMegaMonitor versions, which will make it easier for me to have a "test" version that's under construction and to later roll those changes into the live release. Which โ€ฆ

  • Quick experiment I did using a polarised camera lens filter: looking at a CRT screen and an LCD screen and proving that the light from a LCD screen is polarised (which is a side-effect of the way that they work).

  • HMF episodes of outTHERE (2001-2003), because it seems to have vanished from the planet.




    Back in the early 2000s when I was suffering from insomnia I used to sit up and watch all kinds of trashy late-night TV on the UK's (then new) Channel 5. There was one show that I got hooked on and tuned in to religiously, simply because its presentation was so bizarre. That show โ€ฆ

    Too Many Cards

    This week, Dan performed a magic trick (via webcam) for some friends in an exclusive part of Reddit. And then he thought he should share it with you, too.

  • Would you like to see automatic (and private) graphs of where, what, and who you gild? I was feeling guilty that I haven't made you an MMM icon yet, so I made you a tool to graph-your-gilding!

    [Yet More Graphs!] Where, what, and whom do you gild?




    They said it couldn't be done! And, technically-speaking, they were right. But I've come up with a way for you to generate your personal gilding history graphs. By which I mean, things like this pie chart showing which subreddits I gild in the most.

  • Gilded ents who should be considered for admission...




    Hi! I'm /u/avapoet, and if you know about me already it's probably because you're using MegaMegaMonitor, a browser plugin that enables you to, among other things, spot other gilded ents elsewhere on Reddit by the "universal flair" gold cannabis leaf they carry (note that only gilded ents get to see other gilded ents: no โ€ฆ
