Power Consumption Page

Posted: April 25th, 2009 | Author: edward | Filed under: power | No Comments »

It appears that my Power Consumption Page has become the most popular page on my site. It’s kinda sad because it’s so ugly. Perhaps I should give it a little green theme. When I first made it I spent a fair amount of time looking at wiki software because I wanted people to be able to contribute the power usage of their own devices to the site. So far nobody has yet added any data. I’m thinking now that it’d be better to make it a regular web app.


never too late

There’s a nice little letter at the end of “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” which has been sent by Bard Pitt’s character to his daughter. I felt it’s appropriate for the start of 2009:

For what it’s worth it’s never too late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit; start whenever you want; you can change or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it.

I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you are proud of. And if you find that you are not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.

Happy New Year!


Gibson Dark Fire

The Gibson Dark Fire looks pretty incredible… but seriously I can’t find a single sound demo of the guitar. Kinda fishy for a guitar than is supposed to be able to sound like any guitar. And it’s around $3500 for a pre-order. So far all I’ve seen are some unbelievable claims and some fancy lights.


PSP games?

I just noticed that PSP is #2 in gaming hardware sales in Japan, selling an incredible 50,000 units in a week. Why are people buying these? What is it that they are playing that I don’t know about? Mine simply collects dust in a box somewhere. I don’t even know which box it’s in, it’s just in a box somewhere.


Incredible Race

What an ubelievable conclusion to the 2008 F1 season! Such an incredible race to finish off the year. I’m truly glad that I followed every race this season and I feel so lucky that I got to watch one of the races in person. Congrats to Lewis and McLaren for winning the World Championships. I’ve got to get myself to another race next year : )
