“Wii!” Shout Sony
Heh. Had to happen. Sony have developed a new controller for the PS3 which sounds remarkably similar to that of the Nintendo Wii - a tilt-sensing remote control.
This picture, sent to me by Jon, says it all. -
Of Unusual Troma Nights
Well, Paul's mid-Troma Night fire was still on, so after watching The Wicker Man we all raided the nature reserve for wood, raided the filling station for petrol (mmm... accelerant) and went and set up on the beach.
Hollywood Pizza were good enough to bring us our pizza on the beach, which was awfully nice of … -
Paul Is The Most Fucking Random Person In The World
Paul M: fucking nutter. The most random person you're ever likely to meet. But you've got to love his sincerity.
This morning, I'm happily sat at my workstation, staring, as I do, at program code and pausing from time to time to check the RSS feeds of the usual crew, when the phone rings: Matt answers … -
Some Pictures From My Phone
Some pictures I just extracted from my phone:
ASSA are branching out. Not just (experi)mental music, they do locks, too!
This sticker was found in the ladies toilets underneath the library on Llanbadarn Campus. I think it might be a little out of date... look at the phone number!

So I’m Sat At Work…
...minding my own business, and some random guy walks in through the office door, looking lost. Nobody seems to get up to see to him, so I - in my new desk, which is quite close to the door - go over to greet him. "Is there;" he begins, sounding a little unsure of himself, …

For Sale: Wireless Network Cable
This auction on eBay Germany (you can use Babel Fish to translate it if you like) seems to be trying to sell a Wireless Network Cable.
(and, for the benefit of Adam, who won't 'get' it: a wireless network, being wireless, doesn't have cables - this is geek humour that even you can understand) -
Daddy, Why Did We Have To Attack Iraq
Daddy, why did we have to attack Iraq?
Because they had weapons of mass destruction.
But the inspectors didn't find any weapons of mass destruction.
