This site has been getting attacked pretty badly by spam bots in the past, so nearly a year ago I turned off the ability for anyone to add comments.

Good news people, I have turned comments back on.  Unfortunately now there is a Re-Captcha test that you must pass to prove you are human each time you post a new comment.  It may be a kind of a pain in the you-know-what, but it makes it nearly impossible for the robots to post spam.

This is only an example.

See all the crazy costumes people were wearing on 6th street, downtown Austin TX Saturday night Oct 29, 2011, right before Halloween.

I taught myself how to hover around, but when I do it, I get tired pretty fast.

Of course it is a stop-motion video.

High speed robot, pushing the limits. This thing is really cool.

Today Avast released a bad antivirus definition file “110411-1″ in which its web filter detected false positives for what seems to be most websites.

I found the official information from Avast about it on their Twitter feed.  Their forums were down.  (overloaded?)  Their update servers were taken down to prevent more people from getting the bad updates until the new fixed update 110411-2 has been released.

Now the update servers are online again, so if you are experiencing false positives for Avast, go ahead and have Avast update itself and it will be fine again.  (Or wait for it to update itself on its own)

I drank this on a Saturday morning, made me sick in less than five minutes.

The expiration date was for the following Tuesday.

Then that Friday I took this video:

Spoiled orange juice

Gross!

Friday night, from around 1:45am until 5:15am, I did something uncommon.  That is, I cleaned my bedroom.  It was something so uncommon, I took a video of it.  Here is the video time-lapse compressed into 3 and a half minutes.
