mythbusters video: cpu vs. gpu

yet another reason why mythbusters is awesome.

This was at Nvision, and they demonstrate... well, you just need to watch.

So, where can I get one of those setups?

yes, that is bad drainage

Just like this site says, drainage fail.

Make sure to watch the whole thing, it's worth seeing what happens.

it's bacon wrapped around mac and cheese?

count me in on that action.

Paula Deen is awesome enough with the "and a stick of buttah" in almost everything she makes. This time she ups the ante with bacon... wrapped around mac and cheese. Oh yeah, and it's fried. Awesomeness.

PS - anyone know of a home arterioplasty kit?

in the whole wide room

This one goes out to all the ladies.

I know I've posted a lot of videos lately, but I want to share them here, as opposed to the multitude of other sites I'm a part of and post to. Is anyone really paying attention, or should I just keep doing what I'm doing?

but will it make me uncomfortably energetic?

This is one of those things that I thought was really funny the first time, and it's still funny, but I have to be in the mood for it to really laugh (or watch it with others around).

That reminds me, I need to have a videos page set up 'round here (gotta plan ahead). Maybe it's time that I get on that.

[Update: there is now a Videos page.] 

5 dangerous things you should let your kids do (video)

This goes back to the idea (and article) from a previous post (hefty-hefty-hefty). It's a video describing 5 "dangerous" things we should let our kids do. As a father of a 6-year-old and almost 1-year-old, I'm dealing with this on a regular basis... The safety thing, not the things listed in the video. Oh, and these are part of a book that the speaker wrote... which is 50 dangerous things. The first taste is free, then you gotta pay for it.

rick james for halloween: I'm a super freak...

We had a costume party at work, and the winner of the best costume was... well, you just have to see the video (or at least click on the picture to see it).

This should be up on YouTube soon, but in the meantime... it's here.

UPDATE: it's on YouTube now.

trying Winamp again

It's probably been four years since I used Winamp, and I decided to try it again as of this afternoon (more on that later).

Still pretty much the same look, and it still seems small-ish and quick. Of course, compared to iTunes (especially the later versions), it seems a lot faster. There are also different features that I realized I miss, like the Windowshade mode. The whole app shrinks to the size of a title bar, which is nice when I like having as much screen real estate available as possible. Yes, iTunes has a minimal mode, but it's too blocky.

More on it later once I've used it for more than two hours. In the meantime, I'm wondering about the different media players people use. I have several (just on my Windows XP machine): WMP, Media Player Classic, VLC player, Winamp, iTunes, and last.fm. Any other suggestions, besides getting rid of some?

youtube, itube, we alltube for...

Is there anyone who *hasn't* heard of YouTube?
Hahaha... Retarded? Goofy? Stupid? Yeah, it is.

what do you use for podcasts?

I need some help. Right now I use iTunes for all of my podcasting goodness. I'm not sure that I like it though... It's mostly good, and I mostly like it. They're pretty well managed, and I can edit what I need to (most of the time), but I can't add externally downloaded podcasts and have them show up in that directory.

I'm looking for something else (maybe), and I want to get some recommendations. I already looked in a couple of places (like Podcasting News and Wikipedia), but I'd like some feedback on what other people are using before I start installing everything.

As far as features go, I'm looking for something that works like almost a cross between iTunes and Picasa, but for audio. It would allow me to subscribe to podcasts and manage them, and (hopefully) have bittorrent support... I'll leave the rest open for now.
