Eclipse

First frame with the 200 mm, the rest with the 500 mm. I mis-estimated the exposures, and it was getting cloudier by the minute. (And i should have been shooting RAW - i might have been able to get something better out of them. Well, there's always next year.) Under each is a link to a rather bigger...

Re: More Stuff

Twenty years ago when i was working phone support for NEC, the state-of-the-art computers they were shipping with W95 had problems running it.

Now there's this kid here in Atlanta who wasn't even born yet then, who has it running on a wristwatch.

W95

Re: More Stuff

The Minister of the Exchequer said to the King, one winter's eve, "Majesty, I do not understand. Last year the harvests were poor, and the people face famine. Last fall, there was flooding in the south that destroyed roads and bridges and devastated cities and towns. "In the north there ha...

Re: We don't got to show you no steenkin' Windows 9!

From a friend who was a Windows developer through Vista: The reason for leaping from Windows 8 to Windows 10 has to do with a whole shitpot of legacy application code from non-MS sources that assumes if the operating system name starts with "Windows 9" it's Windows 95 or Windows 98.  The M...

Re: Camel Spider Food 2014-10-02

Heh. I haven't checked lately to see if it's been challenged or removed, but there's a line in a Wikipedia page that resolves a long-standing controversy, which has no attribution - it's there because i know it for a fact, because it happened to me, but i have no other authority for it. It is, howev...

Re: So Cute 2014-10-03

I am fully expecting Cricket's counter-curse to miss tiny Deitzel and zap the spider instead. One hopes there are exceptions to the square-cube law in the Wapsiverse, then. An exo-skeletal critter that got enlarged in that sort of proportions would likely squish under its own weight. Certainly its ...

Re: So Cute 2014-10-03

So much for Cricket's fears of immediate and condign vengeance and desecration of her corpse... Not by Monica's hand anyway. Dietzel, on the other hand, may start plotting her downfall pretty soon if she doesn't figure out how to get him back to normal. :| Yes, there is that ... but not, i suspect,...

Okay. This is not obscene or pornographic, but i'd say it definitely is NSFW - a special glove designed for (right-=handed) men's self-gratification.

Tiles?
