Sunday Things - ruinous edition
posted in Links by Cargo Cult on Sunday May 26 2013
Various ruins, caves, bunkers and abandoned cities for this week's edition of ... the Sunday Things!




Bonus Flatulent HTML corner:
- fartscroll.js - I've somehow managed to resist adding The Onion's venture into web frameworks to this blog. But I don't know how much longer I can hold this in...
Sunday Things - Soviet space edition

Yet more space? Indeedy. This time with post-communist leanings.



Bonus 2001: A Children's Odyssey corner:
- 2001: A Space Odyssey - Howard Johnsons Children's Menu - gloriously confused retelling of the film, from 1968. One of my first memories is of watching 2001 on telly. Given how much I remembered of it, from ape-men to EVA pods to space-baby, I must have seen all of it. Aged four. This probably explains a lot.

Commander Chris Hadfield? Already people's hero. Now? In his last video from the International Space Station before returning to Earth he's something much, much more.

Sunday Things - yet more space edition

Links! In spaaaaaaace!


Bonus Where-in-the-world-are-you? corner:
- GeoGuessr - fun exploration game involving Google's Street View. You are placed in a random location. Can you place yourself on a map? I occasionally get the right continent. Even more occasionally the right street.

Sunday Things - miniature egotism edition
posted in Media by Cargo Cult on Sunday May 5 2013
Brain has been eaten by re-release of a side project. For anyone here due to Raspberry Pi hacking or whatever, my previous hobby of computer game modding accidentally turned into a job. Anyway, for various reasons, I've got round to re-releasing my oft-downloaded Half-Life 2 mod. On Valve's mighty, world-spanning Steam. Yay!

Things will be back to normal next week, once my brain has accumulated sufficient new links for linking.
