Saturday Night

I’m a complete sucker for sport stories like this:

First!

It’s strange how the WiFi quality varies from one Panera to another.

With only one Panera nearby, my sample’s too small to offer any useful data!

Second!

Saturday link dump:

The Tenori-On.  Cool digital music generator.

The Neural Buddhists.  For all you god-botherers.  (Further discussion here and here.)

Nanotechnology is passe, the future is in femtotechnology.

The hidden life of DNA.  (Really quite fascinating!)

Every grain a work of art.  Beautiful images!

Watched AKIRA with the Kid tonight. That anime is still good after all these years. It was the first real anime that I ever saw. Since then I have appreciated Hayao Miyazaki’s magical realist work instead of the dystopian future anime.

What an unbelievably refreshing story of sportsmanship.

I think the pros often have something to learn from the amateurs.

Today I made the move to Movable Type, but it still has a few minor bugs to work out (mostly my custom CSS display stuff for IDs and classes). I really hate leaving PowerBlogs because the blogging tools and template editors are the best I have seen.

But, I have tried to contact Chris for problems and changes I need to make. It has been months and cannot get a reply or acknowledgment of my requests. I don’t believe it’s intentional, and prefer to think that he is just busy because  his business has grown. Yet I cannot continue without support.

MT wasn’t my first choice, but it was the only one compatible enough to easily import my post data. The theme choices are rather meager for now, but I prefer to code my own skins and will eventually make a few. Until I get time visitors will have to put up with a generic theme.

Akira has its good points. And a long list of bad ones, starting with "Wait, what?"

Okay, it’s not Saturday night anymore, but a front-page poster want to post this:

It’s pretty interesting.
