Here are my picked news for this week (i’ll probably add more later), all the way from my busy RSS Reader:
- Rope Experiment — Apparently, Bella found a script making up for Linden Lab removing the prims advanced physical linkage system, also known as “Joints”. Very nifty, I wonder if the creator will agree on giving it to me…
- Mini How-To: Remove the Windows BSOD icon in Leopard, make OS X a little less smug – It’s not the “How-To” i’m talking about, it’s the idea of Apple making the icon representing a Windows-powered PC in the local (or city-wide for WiMAX) network, with an old CRT (sorry, no acronym, but it means an old radiation-pulsing monitor…) displaying the Windows BSOD, Blue Screen Of Death. Apple, please play nice, don’t stoop down to Microsoft’s level.
- Wi-LAN claims WiFi and DSL patent infringement, sues everybody – Are they CRAZY? Suddenly they say “Every computer company providing WiFi (Wireless Networking) used OUR copyright without permission!”? If this ever works, somehow, pigs will start flying and Steve Jobs (Apple’s CEO) and Bill Gates (Microsoft’s CEO, duh. P.S.: Try calling him Gill Bates. Hahahahaha…) will become friends, starting “AppleSoft”, or “MicroApple”.
- Ridiculous DualShock 3 deals arise from importers — Huh? I need to buy a new 40GB Playstation 3 just to get the same controller I have plus vibration?!?! Good thing I don’t care about joystick vibration… Plus, the new 40GB model has no backwards compatibility, but my current 60GB model has

- Leaving. – Katharine Berry, the creator of TSL Emporium, the Teen Grid’s only E-commerce website, TSL Profiles, the Teen Grid’s only profiles website, and AjaxLife, the first Web 2.0 application to support connection to Second Life without installing a thing, is leaving! AHHH!… We’ll miss ya Kathy… Hmm, I wonder wether Kathy will accept my proposal to give me the code to keep E-commerce going for us… I would make it called “onsale”, like “onrez”, only modified
. - USB Ferris Wheel Phone Stand shocks and awes – O-K, that’s freaky. A USB-powered ferris wheel that moves, lights up, and makes weird 8-bit sounds when your phone, physically attached to it, rings. I’m gonna get it, remove the sound, and CALL MYSELF 999,999,999,999,999 TIMES!
