Free Tech to take away - must collect from Room Of Shame - London E1W
6 foot tall 19" Rack, built by yours truly out of 6061 3mm Aluminium l section and ... erm.... more 3mm flat aluminium shelves. And some aluminium.
"The artist formerly known as Latexiron has deliberately created a truly industrial artifact, evincing the unfinished castings of the pre-war industrial period, and combining the post-modern ( Read more... ) -
Save the planet with NINJAS!
At work we have had a recent competition as to how to be more ecologically friendly...
Currently, the lights in the building go onto a "motion sensor" program at night. This means that they only come on, for 30 minutes or so, when the cleaners or maintenance staff come round (or someone drunk decides to sleep under their desk).

What can possibly go wrong?
Liquid cooling of computers has been around for a while. But whilst professional companies (Cray, IBM) use non-conducting fluid, some people choose to use water. This is cheap, because it means you can use water from the tap, fish-tank pumps from the pet shop and radiators from the scrapyard.

Cake or Death - what can possibly go wrong?
I received this press release today, from Slimelight...

Wedding
The weekend held one or two disturbing revelations about Emily, which I am not sure I can cope with.
You know how when you have been involved with someone for a number of years, and you think there is nothing they can do that will shock you, and that you are prepared to tolerate their little foibles like the way they light matches in their sleep? ( Read more... ) -
