I love a quad copter and as soon as they come down in price for one that won't blow away in the wind, I'm getting one. Air dog's clever. It's autonomous and follows you while you're out doing extreme sports/riding a bike/walking to the shops/etc.

A neat idea. The autonomy is interesting. All that shit that we litter our streets with will be a bastard to avoid. You're going to have to be a pretty smart quadcopter to avoid lamp-posts, trees (scattering of ultrasound/radar?), road signs and all that.

Watching with interest!

Due to the virtual vacuum in space, it’s not sound like you and I experience it (that being waves pulsing through the air), but there are electromagnetic waves that pulsate at the same wavelength as the sound waves we can hear.

Turn out the lights, turn it up. Hear space. Spooky.

90 minutes of following linode's excellent instructions and I have a mostly-functioning web server. Just needs PHP and a couple of sites and we're rocking! It's all Linux dontchaknow and although I have some history with the OS, it's a bit patchy. Not needed AggroSupport™ just but I imagine that's coming.

Only going to cost me £6 a month, which is pretty good seeing as both Chom and Lack-Of will end up being a fiver each. I get to play with a linux box too, which is nice.

OH my!

Going to be 170 quid but bloody hell, it's superb.

So I saw this on Rock Paper Shotgun it's a minecraft ish survival game with more focus on the survival and repelling zombies.

I've always wanted a zombie game where the survival is more fleshed out where you can build a base raid places for supplies build up your survivors and gradually push back. I must have backed half a dozen games on kickstarter that implement parts of it and played many games that almost get to that goal but not quite. So far state of decay has come closest and the newer dlc for that may improve the originals failings.

I am really liking this blog about LEGO. The builds are awesome and it's aimed at adults. It's a cracker.

I'd like to collect a few more LEGO blogs, got a good one you enjoy? I prefer ones with pictures because I'm special like that.

Bootstrap is a CSS framework that I use at work and we use here on L-O (take a look at the source and you'll see the bootstrap CSS included). It makes it really easy to make a smart site that is consistent. It also makes it easy to make a themes for a site with mimimal fuss. This page shows a Bootstrap theme that is a 386 one!
