‘Amongst the more deceptive of fruits, the pear is not to be trusted.’

Indie games these days are just too good to pass up. In fact I think most of the high quality games of the year came from small independent operations rather than big name publishers, with very few notable exceptions.
Raking up mad praises in simcity for mobile. About the only decent game for the blackberry platform.
Association is a funny thing, and I think of xo pc whenever I think about simcity. So far its greatest contribution seem to have been changing the mindset of corporate execs in PC manufacturing companies rather than those of children its supposed to serve, but then you can never tell true impact...
WatchPart of the experiment proposal to the ISS. These little suckers are capable of crystallizing DNA molecules within the mesh structure for storage, visualization, and restriction at zero G. (They’re called straws)
WatchMy very own genetically engineered cell line producing quantum dot. This is the second testing run of the day, 4:30 AM. More science ahead.

…sucks. Do they really expect me to scroll 1000 pictures until I find the most recent picture at the bottom of the list??
오늘도 Thanksgiving 맞아 아는 홈레스 쉘터에 들려서 밥도 나눠주고 이것저것 활동을 했다.
좀 일한지 오래되는 곳이라 아는 얼굴들도 이제는 꽤 되고 그들중 대부분도 나는 알아보는듯 하다.
하도 우주이야기를 해줬더니 어떤 사람들은 나를보고 zeroG란다. 좋은건지 아닌지는 모르겠다. 하도 멋대가리 없는나를 놀리는 건가? 아무래도 괜찮기는 하다만.
곤란한건 신장같은 것이 둘다 맛이간 홈레스가 한잔 하고 들어와 자기가 아직도 살려고 해야 되는 이유가 무엇이느냐 따위 질문을 던질때다. 나이도 거의 50~60. 솔직히 논리적으로 따지면 당신들은 살 이유가 없다. 하지만 내 입이 비뚤어져도 그딴 말은 할 수 없다.
이거 어떻하지 하는 생각을 하면 괜히 우울해지고 술이나 퍼마시게 되는데,...
That makes me wonder, what’s the most widely read Ubuntu related website/zine out there? I feel like there should be quite a few.
I could swear I stashed a bag sandwiches in the lab fridge somewhere, but I can’t find it anywhere. Was I hallucinating?
OBEY Thoven!
Check out the most awesome team in the history of all iGEMs.
I spent the entire day holding myself back from telling them to go screw themselves. This can’t be good for my mental health.
Hey guys, Nook simple touch vs the $79 Kindle. What do you think? I’m leaning heavily toward the Nook (b/c it runs android, thus amenable to possible future modded firmware + it supports epub).
I’m just worried about the amount of books available and B&N keep on closing down stores left and right.

It’s all so clear now! Where does diaspora fit in though?
This is what people are supposed to do when studying synthetic biology. You’re welcome.
Current brand of widespread religious fundamentalism is a product of modernity, it’s one facet of this specific decade we live in. Thinking that fundamentalism is a feature of a specific religion, or that it has always been in the shape we see it now, would be disastrous for the future. I’m worried that the situation is getting ever more advantageous for various powerful, yet...
Thinking about Sweeney Todd and Soylent Green.
You run an entire program to feed the population back to themselves in some twisted show of Malthusian dynamics and you’re a captain of the industry.
You kill one guy who’s murdered everything you’ve ever loved and make some pies out of him and you’re a psycopathic murderer.
Moral standard of the human society seem to...
Here are some awesome pictures from my visit to Egypt and Manchester UK.
Yo #igem guys, check out some awesome indie biopunk scifi! Reopening the @jsundmanus files - http://bit.ly/rtsppj via @creativecommons
Genspace needs to publish more CC stuff from now on. All the experiments and lab practices in the world wouldn’t mean a thing without publishing it to the public.
Anyone around here used flattr before? Thinking about applying it to the Genspace page and some other projects I’m working for.

“Someone asked me, “Where do you draw the line at sex?” And I said, “I’d like to be alive after.”“
Hey guys, anyone doing #nanowrimo around here? I think we only need to write like 1677 words per day, which isn’t a lot when you think about it.
I’m thinking ‘labnotes of a mad man.’
