Inlife sämst i test! 10 ggr dyrare för EXAKT samma minne

vs
Jag ska uppgradera en Apple Powerbook G4 1.67 ghz. Exakt samma 1 Gb RAM-minnesmodul från Kingston kostar 175:- inkl moms på Dustin, och 1496:- inkl moms på Inlife. Jag råkar också veta vad återförsäljarnas inköpspris är på just det här minnet, nämligen 150:- inkl moms.

Slutsats: HANDLA INTE PÅ INLIFE!

How To Break Into a Maximum Security Nokia Party

----------------------
OPERATION "BUS TOUR" - AFTER ACTION REPORT
With extensive security (A) at the gate, getting into the Nokia MWC 2009 party seemed near impossible. But using a tour bus (B) as an improvised camouflage, and with Agent Tommy (C) distracting the guards, Agents Anders and Tom (D) could successfully sneak inside the camp. Mission accomplished!

Appendix #1 attached.

Press: Ghostwire scoops Nokia Games Award

And I quoute...

UPDATE: The Guardian gets in-deep and gets it right:


Scary Ghost Game Wins Nokia Innovation Award
"Ghost Wire, by the accurately named Swedish studio, A Different Game, was the eventual winner of the top prize. It's a ghost hunting sim inspired by TV shows like Most Haunted, but based around a Pokemon-style collection dynamic. Players must locate and capture 40 different ghosts, some easy to find, others much more rare. The thing is, there's no onscreen game world – instead it's an augmented reality-style experience in which your phone display becomes a ghost-tracking device, which you must tune in to the spectral frequency and start grabbing spooks.

Ghost Wire fully integrates with your mobile clock, so some ghosts will only appear at certain times, or on specific days of the week. Cleverly, others will only materialise if you are completely silent – the game utilises your handset's microphone, so you'll need to shut yourself in a very quiet room. In a nod to Sixth Sense, every ghost has a problem that you need to solve via a dialogue-driven interface (Tom Söderlund of Different Game name-checked Monkey Island as an inspiration here) – some have become separated from loved ones, others require you to unite them with certain objects. I'm not sure how this element is going to work, but, again, it sounds very much like the Pokemon titles.

When a spectre becomes available for capture, Ghost Wire has another technological convergence trick up its sleeve. You need to switch on your phone's camera display, and the ghost will appear, transparent and hauntingly abstract on the screen, as though hovering in real-life, right in front of you – a really quite spooky effect. Söderlund told me the idea with the game was to make players believe the ghosts were really there."

W3C Valid XHTMLMP start page

This is not super ease to do, so if you need a completely valid XHTMLMP start page to kick you off, here is an example. NOTE this took adding one mime type to the web server;

extention: .xhtmlmp (this can be anyting, as long as it is the extention you use)
mime: application/xhtml+xml

(adding mime types can also be done via a .htaccess file in the same folder as the xhtmlmp document, if you dont have access to the servers mime types)

this is the actual code, save it in a text editor as index.xhtmlmp

Mute industries design nursery table

Mute industries has put together a collapsible nursery table. It's soldered copper pipes, a crafted reinforced wooden rib table, plumbing parts and various brass details. It is not attached to the wall, but is completely movable, yet very stable.


The nursery table in its usable state.


Collapsed against the wall and secured.

The safety stop.


The lock handle, actually a ball valve, in its unlocked position.


Specially ordered brass acorn nuts, distances and bolts.


Art Deco inspired table top, custom shaped and routed details.


Copper pipe holders used as hinges, bolted through the wood, and metal bars for reinforcement, on the back. You can see the painted over bolts that holds the metal bars.


Brass decorative cigar box corners, ordered from Holland of all places.


An extra brass handle on the top of the bottom side.


Not all parts are soldered, to be able to dismantle the construction. Here a T-shaped brass compression fitting.


The back leg rests on rubber feet to minimize vibrations and corrosion.


And of course a name plate in brass to top things off.

LHC rap, follow up. MP3 and lyrics.

The Large Hadron Rap

Twenty-seven kilometers of tunnel under ground
Designed with mind to send protons around
A circle that crosses through Switzerland and France
Sixty nations contribute to scientific advance
Two beams of protons swing round, through the ring they ride
‘Til in the hearts of the detectors, they’re made to collide
And all that energy packed in such a tiny bit of room
Becomes mass, particles created from the vacuum
And then…

LHCb sees where the antimatter’s gone
ALICE looks at collisions of lead ions
CMS and ATLAS are two of a kind
They’re looking for whatever new particles they can find.
The LHC accelerates the protons and the lead
And the things that it discovers will rock you in the head.

We see asteroids and planets, stars galore
We know a black hole resides at each galaxy’s core
But even all that matter cannot explain
What holds all these stars together – something else remains
This dark matter interacts only through gravity
And how do you catch a particle there’s no way to see
Take it back to the conservation of energy
And the particles appear, clear as can be

You see particles flying, in jets they spray
But you notice there ain’t nothin’, goin’ the other way
You say, “My law has just been violated – it don’t make sense!
There’s gotta be another particle to make this balance.”
And it might be dark matter, and for first
Time we catch a glimpse of what must fill most of the known ‘Verse.
Because…

LHCb sees where the antimatter’s gone
ALICE looks at collisions of lead ions
CMS and ATLAS are two of a kind
They’re looking for whatever new particles they can find.

Antimatter is sort of like matter’s evil twin
Because except for charge and handedness of spin
They’re the same for a particle and its anti-self
But you can’t store an antiparticle on any shelf
Cuz when it meets its normal twin, they both annihilate
Matter turns to energy and then it dissipates

When matter is created from energy
Which is exactly what they’ll do in the LHC
You get matter and antimatter in equal parts
And they try to take that back to when the universe starts
The Big Bang – back when the matter all exploded
But the amount of antimatter was somehow eroded
Because when we look around we see that matter abounds
But antimatter’s nowhere to be found.
That’s why…

LHCb sees where the antimatter’s gone
ALICE looks at collisions of lead ions
CMS and ATLAS are two of a kind
They’re looking for whatever new particles they can find.
The LHC accelerates the protons and the lead
And the things that it discovers will rock you in the head.

The Higgs Boson – that’s the one that everybody talks about.
And it’s the one sure thing that this machine will sort out
If the Higgs exists, they ought to see it right away
And if it doesn’t, then the scientists will finally say
“There is no Higgs! We need new physics to account for why
Things have mass. Something in our Standard Model went awry.”

But the Higgs – I still haven’t said just what it does
They suppose that particles have mass because
There is this Higgs field that extends through all space
And some particles slow down while other particles race
Straight through like the photon – it has no mass
But something heavy like the top quark, it’s draggin’ its ***
And the Higgs is a boson that carries a force
And makes particles take orders from the field that is its source.
They’ll detect it….

LHCb sees where the antimatter’s gone
ALICE looks at collisions of lead ions
CMS and ATLAS are two of a kind
They’re looking for whatever new particles they can find.

Now some of you may think that gravity is strong
Cuz when you fall off your bicycle it don’t take long
Until you hit the earth, and you say, “Dang, that hurt!”
But if you think that force is powerful, you’re wrong.
You see, gravity – it’s weaker than Weak
And the reason why is something many scientists seek
They think about dimensions – we just live in three
But maybe there are some others that are too small to see
It’s into these dimensions that gravity extends
Which makes it seem weaker, here on our end.
And these dimensions are “rolled up” – curled so tight
That they don’t affect you in your day to day life
But if you were as tiny as a graviton
You could enter these dimensions and go wandering on
And they'd find you...

When LHCb sees where the antimatter’s gone
ALICE looks at collisions of lead ions
CMS and ATLAS are two of a kind
They’re looking for whatever new particles they can find.
The LHC accelerates the protons and the lead
And the things that it discovers will rock you in the head.

LHC rap! Why didnt i find this one!

HA HA HA!
This is ingenious! Why, oh WHY didn't I find this one?! Kudos to Naseer. I took a course in quantum physics the other year, and during that entire 10 weeks, they didn't manage to squeeze in the amount of info crammed into this HILARIOUS rap...

Olycklig slump, eller spännande kulturkrock?

08-08-08 invigs OS i Kina. Men det händer minst 2 saker i Gamla Stan också. Socialdemokratiska Studentförbundets Burmautskott och Svenska burmakommittén demonstrerar för att hedra och minnas de som dog i protesterna, "8888", för 20 år sedan, 1988.

Samtidigt intar ett gigantiskt vattenkrig Gamla Stan från bårde norr och söder, och dessutom försvaras Gamla Stan av sina egna. Nord mot Syd har enligt uppgift över 7000 anmälda som med ballonger, hinkar, gevär och pistoler ska göra upp kampen en gång för alla.

ShapeLock! Create what you need. Easy.

Ugly website, beautiful product! ShapeLock is a super strong plastic similar to Nylon or Polypropylene in toughness. However, unlike the two former plastics it does not need high temperatures or high pressures to form into useful shapes. ShapeLock is easily hand-formed into shape at just 70°C (150°F).

Today I ordered 500g (yes, the ship internationally), and have no idea what to make of it. Time will tell.

Update: They do NOT shop internationally, money was refunded to my paypal account.

Here is an article where they used it to create a machine that clones itself to a machine that clones it self to a machine that... well, you get the picture. At the same site you can also read more about shapeloc/friendly plastic, and where to get it.
