I’m bossing hard to get Trly.gd working as soon as the payment for the domain is completed. Trly.gd is a keyword-based search tool that helps you access all the information you need from a single box.

Meanwhile, you can find a sneak peak of the current page here:

I made something great, but I suck and naming things, no matter how insanely awesome they are. There’s 25$ on the table. Whoever picks the winning name gets it.

Name this bugger!

As you can see, this is a search bar far more awesome than anything you’ve seen before. All it needs is a name so I can put it under a domain and make a Firefox, IE and Opera search bar for it.

Conditions:

1. The domain name for the new title must be available.
2. The name cannot be already in use.
3. That’s it, really.

Payment is done via Paypal. I could also send (canadian) cash by mail or a used cartridge of Pokémon Pinball for the Gameboy. Your call.

Here is a simple and ridiculously efficient way to kill LanSchool and access internet. This one is new and works as of November 20, 2009 with version 7.3.0.1

1. Go to C:\Program Files (can be accessed by going up folders from My Documents) and then find the LanSchool folder.
2. Delete or move as many files as you can from the LanSchool folder. The application can survive this, so we will go a step further and make sure it can’t run even if the files are there.
3. Right-click on school.exe and select Properties.
4. Go to the Compatibility tab.
5. Check the Execute in compatibility mode box and choose the oldest available operating system.
6. LanSchool might then show various installation boxes. Always click cancel.

Voilà! You can now use Internet Explorer and other restricted applications, completely unseen!

UPDATE: Some people do not have access to these files. Another way to sabotage the LanSchool files would be to create a batch file that messes with the files it needs to run.

From this article:

“You are advised to submit without further delay, for if I bring my army into your land, I will destroy your farms, slay your people, and raze your city.” The Spartan ephors sent back a one word reply: “If.”Alexander would avoid Sparta entirely.

The Volkshalle was an enormous building planned  by Hitler before the second world war. Here is an excerpt from the article on Wikipedia:

Although the Volkshalle was never built, critics claimed it might have severe architectural problems, such as acoustics that would (depending on the critic) either make it impossible to hear a speaker, or would magnify the speaker’s voice to such a volume that it might cause deafness.

In an interview with James P. O’Donnell, Speer said that, during his time in Spandau Prison, he constantly reviewed such criticisms of his architecture, and eliminated (in his opinion) many of them. One problem, however, remained—Speer speculated that during cold weather, the breathing and perspiration of 180,000 occupants in such a large and high dome might precipitate and fall back down. In short, it was possible that the hall might have its own ‘weather’ and create indoor rain because of its overcapacity. This phenomenon has been observed in other very large buildings that have been constructed in reality, such as the Kennedy Space Center’s Vehicle Assembly Building, and (on a minor scale, with light mist as the precipitation on high humidity days) inside the Goodyear Airdock in Akron, Ohio.

I will be rebuilding my blog theme over the next few weeks, so please excuse any form of ugliness you might find. Thank you.
