LinkDump: You just spilled Geek on me

[J.Rai]

OK so these things pile up in my history and they spill into forums and MSN links so I thought I'd put up a few to share that made my chuckle or pause to look twice.

Geeky Pumpkin Designs! (http://studenthacks.org/2007/10/28/pumpkin-carving-designs/) - My fave is highlighted here, but there are some funny/impressive ones, and of course the classic perennial favorite, "Pumpkin Pi."
The Rubik's Cube Solution (http://howtosolvearubikscube.weebly.com/) - I don't recall ever actually legitimately solving a Rubik's Cube, but I also don't remember actually owning one either. I think I'm going to try to find one now and see if I can actually use a strategy like these.
Dynamic Window Is Trippy, Cool (http://www.geekologie.com/2007/10/dynamic_daylight_window_is_tri.php) - This is a freakin' super-cool piece of new technology. I don't know what having this in my hotel room would do to the cost per night, but I'd love to play with it for sure. Anyway, there. Go geek out. Links found via StumbleUpon (http://www.stumbleupon.com) and of course Geekologie (http://www.geekologie.com).

That Deathstar one is cool! But the Shining one is incredible and definitely my favourite! The Pumpkin Pi one got a giggle from me tho.

I always wanted to do some of the VG Cats ones since he put up templates a year or two ago, but given we don't really do Halloween in Australia, moot point.

I remember those.

I've never used a pumpkin template before though.

we had 4 groups of kids come to our house last night - the American culture is slowly worming its way in. Combantrin anyone? :meh:

mi casa es su casa!

[Sláine]

heh, I'll have some lollies ready for you then!

[Secoh]

you could just, you know, cook and eat the pumpkin instead of mutilating it and ogling it as it dies slowly.

Well, okay, so you can do both too....


Awesome pumpkinart!

[billabongbabe]

[Odin1985]

[J.Rai]

It seemed like a lark as a kid, when it's just one of those things you do because "That's what you do" - but these days I really don't get it and am not really pumped on the idea.
