Oh Apple, you so funny
So, in a nut shell, it would appear the next iPhone (some calling it the iPhone 4, some calling it the iPhone HD) has been leaked. How did this happen? Gizmodo gives us the low down..
How Apple lost the next iPhone tells the story of how a developer on the core software team innocently left the device behind at a bar.
This is Apple's next iPhone ( Read more... ) -
Favourite anime opening
A quick post before I go to sleep, a brief discussion post.
What is your favourite anime opening sequence? Sometimes you have a kick ass opening visual, but a shitty ass song. Example, the opening to Ergo Proxy:
OK, to be fair the song isn't shitty, I just don't think it suits the series ( Read more... ) -
Japan 2010 : Day 8 - Hokkaidō
On the morning of day 8 we awoke early from our Tokyo accommodation to catch our flight north. The flight was with JAL and Jacky back home was quick to poke fun at the fact that they had done bankrupt. This was made even stranger that they for some reason refunded the flight payment back into our friend's account. Still, we were convinced that the ( Read more... ) -

Attack of the 30cc Line Trimmer
So, it all started a week ago. Well, technically over a week ago. The line trimmer / edge trimmer thing my dad uses wouldn't start. A quick look at it showed that the pull starter simply was not turning an engine, which is a pretty important fact when trying to start an engine. So taking it apart was fun, which in summary ended up with me modifying ( Read more... ) -
Japan 2010 : Day 7 - Kyoto / Tokyo
So this morning we checked out of the Ryokan. We were only in Kyoto for one night. Unfortunately it was sill piss pour raining. Still, we were intent to see some sights. After the whole tour idea went into the kicker, we had only two goals: Golden Pavilion and "Fushimi Inari" (torii gates). So we checked out, left the luggage in the lobby, and ( Read more... ) -
Japan 2010 : Day 6 - Kyoto
So the morning of day six had has checking out of our weekly mansion in Osaka, and moving onto Kyoto. We caught an early-ish shinkensen and arrived in Kyoto kindah early.

Japan 2010 : Day 5 - Nara / Osaka
This day turned out to be a bonus day. Funny story about that actually. All the accommodation was booked prior to us leaving Sydney. However somehow there was a one night difference between when we were supposed to check out of our Weekly Mansion in Osaka, and when we were supposed to check into our Hotel/Ryokan in Kyoto. So that resulted in a rush ( Read more... ) -
Japan 2010 : Day 4 - Osaka Osakaaa
I'd like to take this opportunity to say that people in Osaka are weird. You know how normally people stand on the left hand side of an escalator, well people in Osaka stand on the right. They also are pretty pushy, pretty much a lot of the stuff they say about Osaka-n people in Azumanga. We were amused ( Read more... )
