How about we start a thread that might get updated more than once a month?

A thread where we post "WOAH THAT'S NEAT" type shit. I'll go first.

Posting this here, too:

OK Go - Needing/Getting - Official Videoyoutube thumb

Relevant because of the engineering challenge that must have been. Not building the instruments so much, but figuring out how far apart to place things based on the speed of the car, what gizmos to use to hit them, etc. (The big noisy tunnel seems like it might be using the same footage for all three play-throughs, though.) It still wows the fuck out of me, though.

Y'know, I used to update a list of useful internet things on an older forum. Stuff like:

http://newsmap.jp/#

the problem is, I don't know what stuff would still count as useful now. I thought a general program list like some of the /g/ infographics might've been nice, or maybe just another link list even.

WTF is with California? I mean, seriously... why is it higher prices than the rest of the country, and in EVERY SINGLE COUNTY?!

Thank you for adding it.

They have a few different gas blends that require more refinement and that causes a greater price since they have to be transported differently or something (least that is what I remember hearing from someone coming from California)

Seems nice, form what I've read of it. I actually prefer the weirder look of Edison2's VLC, but if it isn't out by the time I get around to buying a car, I think I'll go with this.

So, I'd like a bit of feedback on this, honestly. Basically, it's trying to be an internet faq, kinda. Need to choose a better theme though. :/

I guess I could actually make this a whole blog though, now that I'm getting the hang of tumblr.

I don't have a reaction image that can properly convey the horror, joy and gibbering humor I find in this.

I'm not sure I understand, it can't be that simple, for lack of a better word.

This strikes me as a little inefficient though. If any weather aficionados know of something better, I'd like to hear about it.

So, uh, what's the difference between this thread, tech general, and tech your mind?
>> No. 4196

I think this thread is more like a link dump for neat shit rather than tech your mind. Doesn't really matter, but having a thread for the links and a thread just to talk just seems more organized.
