You really need to check out Neogentronyx. I'm a bit too old to have played with Transformers as a kid, but this guy apparently did. And it would seem that he never outgrew them. This whole project is obviously the culmination of years of childhood daydreaming. Actually I'm glad that this guy has "way too much time" to work on this, because I don't. But I'd love to have one of these! ;)
I sure hope I get one of these under my Christmas tree! Actually, I want three friends to get them too… Then we can start a band, ala KISS!
Anyone who really knows me surely know that I don't like Wal-Mart because of their "Always Low Prices (at any cost to supplier companies and exploited third-world workers)!" motto. But I have to take there side in this one. If a company follows the laws that govern gun sales, you can't sue them for selling your adult child a gun that they then used to kill themselves. I'm sorry. It's tragic, but Wal-Mart didn't shoot them! What's next? If some nut job jumps in front of my car and I run them over, do I get sued for "wrongful death" because I could have taken an alternate route to my destination? The only things I see coming out of this case are two parent who are prolonging the agony over the death of their child, and a group of lawyers with jinglier pockets!
I'm now running what will likely be PolarBlog V1.4.0 on this site. The only noticeable change you will see is the addition of the "Topics" links in the right navigation menu. This, like most of the features can be turned off via a configuration option if you don't want it. There may be some additional features added, thus the "Alpha" aspect of this, but mostly it is a "Beta" of what will be released. See this changelog for the quick rundown of what else is in this release.
It seems a A 21-year-old Perth man who for obvious reasons has chosen to remain anonymous, nearly killed himself using what I've termed "The Beer Pump". Beer Bongs are crazy enough, but this truly is insanity. This is sort of a "Darwin's Work" lite though, as he did survive…likely to do something incredibly stupid in the future that will end his days.
