I made a new type of display that does 3D graphics sprite/billboarding effect in real life... Just like in #Doom/#Wolfenstein 3D https://t.co/g2Lz4zYwao

Watching Inner Ghosts... This horror film has a 3.7/10 rating on IMDb and features a demonically-possessed 3D printer. Aka - it's bad :p

Web developers know how satisfying it is to score a perfect 100 on Google PageSpeed for my #Andotrope website (on cheap shared hosting, no less!).

My computer monitor is making a quiet buzzing sound like a Cylon. No really. Should I be worried? #BattlestarGalactica

I've been invited to take part in a paid study by MIT on Temporal Forecasting Research.

Not sure if predicting the future counts as being a time traveller or not but I'll take it

SO MUCH MILO

Went to see Australia's largest #Christmas tree. 45m/148ft high, 50,000 lights, took them 6 months to wire it up!

Did you ever think that quiz shows are really just "who's the most autistic" competitions?

If you've ever wondered what it's like to actually drive a DeLorean, The Stig recently reviewed one... And actually kinda liked it (though he undersold just how much attention you get!)
