Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll

One might expect Tim Burton to be the director to effectively bring the strange world of Lewis Carol to life but let’s be honest; there is no one better accustomed to strange psychology than Marilyn Manson. “Phantasmagoria: The Visions Of Lewis Carroll” is a controversial film that Manson has been working on for over 6 years and despite the project being officially “cancelled” there is talk on the net of an immanent release.


Manson has stated that the premier of his movie will be “very unconventional” and that the official Marylin Manson website will play an important role in the delivery of the film. Sticking with the unconventional; the trailer for the movie has very explicit and disturbing imagery and other than the intentional controversy it was apparently well received. Manson tries to redefine the horror genre by revisiting the Hitchcock-style psychological aspect of horror where fear stems more from what goes unseen.

Quake3 in HD

Dust off the old PK3 files: Although it's over 10 years old, Quake 3 is still being played in offices around the world. Since id software has open sourced the Quake 3 engine; a community of developers has created an updated engine called ioquake3 and has recently also included a high resolution texture pack . ioquake3 is 100% compatable with Quake3 v1.32 so you will be able to join servers running the original Quake3 engine and vice versa. All you will need are the original pk3 files found in your Quake 3 baseq3 folder.

A Profound Understanding of Technology

The rate of technological growth is very predictable and is exponential. To draw a correlation; the Mayan calendar is understood to be a measure of significant technological events with an exponential decrease in interval time. This almost immediately disproves the man-in-the-sky idea of god because once we have successfully reverse engineered the human body we will be able to make vast performance improvements. The predictability of technology also simultaneously proves that there is some kind of divine plan at work. The machines will eventually take over but we won't be separate from them, we will become self-engineered, bio-mechanical, super intelligent beings. The singularity is upon us :D

Oracle Doesn’t Get Open Source

Oracle claimed that the EU didn’t get open source when they tried to prevent Oracle’s acquisition of Sun . It’s plain to see that the acquisition was purely to destroy the competition. Sun is dead and it’s software is slowly being buried with it. Well, not quite; Sun actively developed three of the worlds most important open source contributions; Java , MySQL and OpenOffice.org . Regardless of the loopholes that Oracle is trying to pursue with their current case against Google , once a copyleft license is applied, the product effectively becomes the property of the consumer. When the deal was announced, the open source community was up in arms however i believed that Oracle was simply waking up to the necessity for open source in the software industry. The world is not ready to drop the proprietary model just yet but a software company the size of Oracle must have realised that they were falling behind. I was wrong, Oracle have no clue about open source and apparently have no int...
