I’ve been trying to test out what I’ve come to simply refer to as a flip-flop animation, using two or more pictures played at 10ms each in an endless loop (animated GIF). The example below was one of my Random Images a while ago, and got me to experimenting on how one might be [...]

There are few things that simply explain the one thing Christians can all agree upon, and at the same time try to address how difficult the rest of the world makes it by refusing it even just consider the actual message instead of getting wrapped up in the side issues. YouTube to the rescue [...]

Here’s a little tutorial I made for getting outside a few of the Halo 3 maps. If you’ve got XBox Live, check out my fileshare (thehomeland) and get the “explore” movies. The basic idea:
1. Load forge.
2. Delete all spawn points. If there’s a couple you can’t find, suicide and you’ll respawn at it.
3. [...]

Ever since I played the Standoff level, I wanted to go explore those buildings way off in the distance — but you can’t get there the regular way. Enter the Insta-Death Spawn trick.. Not my idea, but a much better tutorial of how to get it accomplished than most of the other tutorials I’ve [...]

There’s a handy little piece of armor you can swim underwater to get and it’s right out in plain sight. It lets you see in the dark, detect creatures as they approach without having to see them directly, and allows you to breathe underwater. It’s the “Fin Gleam” helment, and this video I [...]

Whilst reading over my usual visit to Boing Boing (from which I abscond with some of their links from time to time), there was an interesting comment in one of the articles that struck my fancy.
There’s a familiar droning phrase from certain Creationism proponents that science should teach, not only about evolution theory, but also [...]

I’m currently in the process of making my own homemade version of the boardgame Settlers of Catan since the retail version is around $50. The game is about intermediate on the simplistic-scale, and it has a lot of pieces. I would classify it as a combination of RISK, Monopoly, and the somewhat obscure [...]

Came across something I’d definitely be interested in. I usually make all of my own eBay sales containers and such out of reused boxes from prior eBay auctions I’ve bought (among other things) and like to think of myself as pretty good with a craft knife, cardboard and clear “Duck” (brand) tape. However, this [...]

See if you can pick out the messages in these folded and scanned dollar bills. The artist who formed them is selling prints of them as posters and such. Not a bad idea, I must say. Dan Tague’s Money Prints.

I may be one of the few word philosphers or perhaps a lay-scientist of word theory, considering the overt nerdiness that this entry reveals.
As an official reference on the subject, I’m making an entry about my creation of the word neologism, to squiptipadoogleboinkaflop. In this form, it is a verb describing the action [...]

To be fair, I pillaged my pink blossomy header graphic from this link, as an experiment (also as a reference in case I want to change it back later ^_^)

I like to buy books at garage sales — largely just to see if I can sell them elsewhere for more (and often end up doing that) but some of them end up being worth practically nothing, or so little that the quarter I gave for it was higher than its market value. I [...]

If anyone could link me up with a guide on how to tear out magazine pages so that I can always get clean edges and such, please let me know. I’ve considered using this idea, but I may just go with a ruler-and-exacto method instead. I’d like to get as much of the page as [...]

Engadget has a nifty article about a new do-it-yourself project that will enable your houseplants to post an update to Twitter when they need more water. Now only if they would make a Facebook app for that..
