Just found a nice Facebook app that let’s me update my Facebook status via Twitter Tweets. I like that!

Dare I Take The Plunge Of DIY Repair?
Posted on: March 20th, 2008 at 10:24am By: Sebconn

So, as per an earlier post, I broke the LCD panel of my beloved Macbook. At the time I was thinking, way too expensivc to replace, just buy a new Macbook. But a couple of factors have come to play since then. For one, I didn’t want my next Mac to be a Macbook, I wanted a Macbook Pro, and 2, I found a place called Macfixit Australia, who sell LCD panels for DIY install for AU$379, which is damn cheap, you can get them to install it for you for $179, but that (however small) extra fee just makes me think I might as well go buy a new one for $1449. There’s an awesome guide at ifixit.com which has a 23 page guide in replacing the panel, which is quite involved, but me and a mate were thinking we could do it, so long as we follow every single step. The only tools I need is a screwdriver, a spudger and a beer to cool my nerves. And hopefully the DIY gods smile down on me.

Scary Ass Robot

I linked to an earlier vid of this robot a year or so back and it flipped me out then, but this new video, just makes me feel eerie, it truly scares me.

The bit where it slips on the ice, and the bit where it’s jumping, is just absolutely amazing, there has not been a robot that has looked more real to me.

Kids, Don’t Drink.

My God I had a big bender last night, don’t remember coming home, don’t remember a lot of things, but I did wake up to this:

Broken Laptop

Not the nicest thing to wake up to, I guess all I can do now is turn it on, get all my data off it, and eventually, go buy myself a new laptop, it’s gonna take some time though. So kiddies, when your elders tell you don’t drink, it’s bad, listen to them, or things like this can happen.

GHIII Angst

The one major issue that comes with Guitar Hero is you start to hate the songs that you struggle to get passed. I think I nearly smashed my stupid little toy guitar about 10 fucking times when trying to play through Queens of the Stoneage’s 3s & 7s on hard, it drove me mad. Now I’e got to contend with Knights of Cydonia on Hard, which I’m hoping I can get through quick enough, but I’m not keeping my hopes up, it’s a tough one.
