It’s the law!
If Ghostbusters was made in 2012, what would have popped into Ray’s head?

Mr. Genachowski said tiered pricing, will “increase consumer choice and competition” and yield in “lower prices for people who consume less broadband.” Although, as Electronista notes, “he did not clarify what mechanism would drive prices down.”
Public interest groups have decried the potential impact broadband data caps will have on the market and innovation, not to mention the biases baked in the plans. Comcast, for example, counts Netflix video into its data plan, but lets its own XFinity service stream away.
…“increase consumer choice and competition”… yeah, that’s exactly what will happen. I mean, except for how that’s not what’s going to happen, at all.
My Tumblr Stream…
is made up of almost entirely of pictures of corgis, cats, and penguins. Also, some nerdy things.
Not a complaint, just an observation.
Oh Django :)

Don’t mind if I do!
Mojam is Live!
If you’re uncertain about what Mojam is, Mojang and The Humble Bundle folks have teamed up to sell a game for charity! The Internet voted on the genre and the theme, and now they’re going to code it in 60 hours, live. You can watch it streaming over at humblebundle.com.
Judging by Notch’s Ludum Dare games, I have high hopes.
So go! It’s pay what you want, AND all the proceeds go to charities. What are you waiting for?

Double Fine is amazing!
By the gods, I wish I had some money. In case you missed it, Double Fine is running a kickstarter project that will end with the creation of both a Double Fine Adventure game and a documentary about it’s creation.
If you’re unfamiliar with Double Fine, let me just say that I have high expectations. They are masterful in their craft, and wonderful in their execution. If you have the spare cash hanging around and enjoy video games, you should definitely click on the link above and help fund something wonderful!
I’ve got my wii-mote set up with my desktop running Boxee. It’s completely, totally awesome! I’m going to write a script to help configure and bind wiimotes. At least, that’s the idea. I’m very excited it about it though!
On Chegg
I’ve already unsubscribed from their email list once, but apparently it didn’t take. One more failing from the company that fails.
Honestly, Chegg can go suck it. They suck at lending textbooks, and suck at customer service. and apparently suck at removing people from mailing lists.
I hope it sticks this time.
