What I've been watching: Mawaru Penguindrum
One month ago I marathoned through Mawaru Penguindrum. And every once in a while, Ash-Gray Wednesday suddenly pops into my head and I have to take pause of whatever I was doing.
Mawaru Penguindrum is a story about a family of three. Two brothers, twins, and a little sister only a few years behind. The three live alone, best they can, but a sad atmosphere follows everything they do. The sister...

Dan Frommer on Better Blogging →
I already follow a lot of these rules myself. I have about 20 drafts saved that I’ve never gotten around to posting, often because of not liking the finished product or not having all the proper referrals. This blog has been mostly filler posts all its life, and I may just end it soon.
And after typing all that I see two posts on my feed that I feel I may reblog…

The announcement that Nexus One users won’t be getting upgraded to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich led some to justifiably question Google’s support of their devices. I look at it a little differently: Nexus One owners are lucky. I’ve been researching the history of OS updates on Android phones…
The computer scientist in me weeps.

me & her: Great artists steal the future →
brianericford:
Steve Jobs once appropriated an old quote:
“Good artists copy, great artists steal.”
It’s becoming more and more clear that Steve felt personally betrayed by Google’s decision to enter the smartphone market with Android — an OS that is in almost every important way a copy of Apple’s iOS.

“We haven’t just lost a great innovator, leader, and businessman, we’ve literally lost the only person in this country who actually had his shit together and knew what the hell was going on,” a statement from President Barack Obama read in part.

Message to the Community
Hey, Starcraft 2 community. If I was as good as you all seem to assume I am, then I’d be laddering and not playing custom games with you asses.

A Separate App →
parislemon:
Jason Kincaid and I from last March, right after Facebook acquired Beluga (about 12:20 in):
“I think that they should do a separate app that’s really kind of simple. And just easy to understand. And not roped within the app itself that they do already.”
“Messaging is meant to be fast on mobile. And it’s not fast if you do it right now through the Facebook app.”
“I want something...

From Dust is a very good video game that starts badly. It’s dull, at first. Pick up dirt. Drop dirt. Pick up water. Spill water. You’re a god! Re-shaping the land.
Aw fuck. I might buy this now.

The Campaign for Real Monopoly →
Dan Rutter and Marco Arment both clear up rules for a popular board game that I may now start playing again.
iamstillphrost asked: I think Crapcom is shitting on Megman fans on purpose. I mean I love phoenix wright, but if they can come up with a viable moveset for him then why couldn't they do that for Megaman?
The End of Borders
In case you hadn’t heard by now, Borders is going out of business. The only silver lining to this is that going out of business book sales start today.

Weekend Report: 'Harry' Makes History →
parislemon:
Following up, Harry Potter made $168.55 million this weekend, a full $10 million ahead of the previous record holder, The Dark Knight.
That’s insane — but again, adjusted for inflation, The Dark Knight would still hold the title. And other films before that would be higher too. They really need to start reporting tickets sold, not money made. They never will, but they should.
