Jetzt habe ich auch noch die passenden Geschenkideen gefunden. Mein absoluter Favorit:
Because this one’s just too romantic to pass up. Can you not live without your significant other? Not if you’re wearing these shirts. Because the farther away you are, the less life you have. Plus, remember how in Zelda your sword shoots when you have full life?

Valentinstag Guide für Geeks

Tja, bald ist er wieder. Der Tag, auf den alle Blumenhändler warten. Valentinstag. Ich mag ihn nicht. Meine Freundin auch nicht. Also lassen wir ihn ausfallen.
Ich glaub, ich habe dazu auch schon mal was geschrieben…
Jedenfalls habe ich gerade einen Guide gefunden, wie man als Geek diesen besonderen Tag übersteht. Und da ich selber ein erwiesener Geek bin möchte ich euch den nicht vorenthalten …
Valantines if you do have someone
Take the whole damn day off if you can
You bloggers and super geeks do the post the night before or let the whole thing hang for a day. Power down the PC, the PDA, the iPhone, iPod, Fruit Flavoured Super Phone and every other technology driven communications device.
Okay geeks take it steady. Deep breathing. You are not going to die.
Then free of all technology and incoming calls invest every energy and minute you have in paying attention to your significant (and potentially less geeky other) as if he or she were the arrival of a new start up that could threaten all of Facebook, Twitter and Google in one go.
Find out what she likes most and do it
Consider getting from the antiques collection a thing called a pencil and another called paper (you might have seen it around the office) and take notes when you ask you love what they care about most. What their greatest passions are. What sort of things makes them want to jump out of bed in the mornings.
Try not to turn this into a “why don’t you blog” sales method.
In short make the day about her (or him, or it or whatever – it’s a crazy world out there).
Watch her choice of movie
You can do this geek couple style on the digital entertainment set up you built (you did that right?) or you could go out and join other people (lots of other people) and see something on the big screen.
Renting movies can be done geek style with the PC and Internet connection days before the event (like now, for example).
More advice if you do have someone
Seriously this is where you go bug Chris Parillo and let him answer some questions. I’m clearly not qualified to talk about everything and everyone know Chris is a quality long term relationship geek. The last time I checked he’d hooked up an offer for free flowers.

Ein Test, der extrem lang ist, bei dem ich herzhaft lachen mußte. Alleine die Fragen sind lesenswert – zumindest für einen Geek
Mein Ergebnis: 30% – Total Geek
Auf der Skale eher unteres Mittelfeld:
- Geekish Tendencies
- Geek
- Total Geek
- Major Geek
- Super Geek
- Extreme Geek
- Geek God
- Dysfunctional Geek
Der Submit funktioniert leider nicht. Aber mit “Rank My Geekiness” kann man das Resultat berechnen und anzeigen lassen.

Alternativer Link auf deutsch – der andere geht wohl bei manchen nicht…

Das Ende der Welt

Es wird kommen und zwar 2012:
Scientific experts from around the world are genuinely predicting that five years from now, all life on Earth could well finish. Some are saying it’ll be humans that set it off. Others believe that a natural phenomenon will be the cause. And the religious folks are saying it’ll be God himself who presses the stop button…
1.) Mayan Calendar

The first mob to predict 2012 as the end of the world were the Mayans, a bloodthirsty race that were good at two things:
Building highly accurate astrological equipment out of stone and
Sacrificing Virgins.Thousands of years ago they managed to calculate the length of the lunar moon as 329.53020 days, only 34 seconds out. The Mayan calendar predicts that the Earth will end on December 21, 2012. Given that they were pretty close to the mark with the lunar cycle, it’s likely they’ve got the end of the world right as well.
2.) Sun Storms

Solar experts from around the world monitoring the sun have made a startling discovery: our sun is in a bit of strife. The energy output of the sun is, like most things in nature, cyclic, and it’s supposed to be in the middle of a period of relative stability. However, recent solar storms have been bombarding the Earth with so much radiation energy, it’s been knocking out power grids and destroying satellites. This activity is predicted to get worse, and calculations suggest it’ll reach its deadly peak sometime in 2012
3.) The Atom Smasher
Scientists in Europe have been building the world’s largest particle accelerator. Basically its a 27km tunnel designed to smash atoms together to find out what makes the Universe tick. However, the mega-gadget has caused serious concern, with some scientists suggesting that it’s properly even a bad idea to turn it on in the first place. They’re predicting all manner of deadly results, including mini black holes. So when this machine is fired up for its first serious experiment in 2012, the world could be crushed into a super-dense blob the size of a basketball.
4.) The Bible says…
If having scientists warning us about the end of the world isn’t bad enough,religious folks are getting in on the act aswell. Interpretations of the Christian Bible reveal that the date for Armageddon, the final battle between Good and Evil, has been set down for 2012. The I Ching, also known as the Chinese book of Changes, says the same thing, as do various sections of the Hindu teachings.
5. Super Volcano

Yellowstone National Park in the United States is famous for its thermal springs and Old Faithful geyser. The reason for this is simple – it’s sitting on top of the world’s biggest volcano, and geological experts are beginning to get nervous sweats. The Yellowstone volcano has a pattern of erupting every 650,000 years or so, and we’re many years overdue for an explosion that will fill the atmosphere with ash, blocking the sun and plunging the Earth into a frozen winter that could last up to 15,000 years. The pressure under the Yellowstone is building steadily, and geologists have set 2012 as a likely date for the big bang.
6.) The Physicists
This one’s case of bog-simple maths mathematics. Physicists at Berkely University have been crunching the numbers. and they’ve determined that the Earth is well overdue for a major catastrophic event. Even worse, they’re claiming their calculations prove, that we’re all going to die, very soon – while also saying their prediction comes with a certainty of 99 percent- and 2012 just happens to be the best guess as to when it occurs.
7.) Slip-Slop-Slap-BANG!
We all know the Earth is surrounded by a magnetic field that shields us from most of the sun’s radiation. What you might not know is that the magnetic poles we call north and south have a nasty habit of swapping places every 750,000 years or so – and right now we’re about 30,000 years overdue. Scientists have noted that the poles are drifting apart roughly 20-30kms each year, much faster than ever before, which points to a pole-shift being right around the corner. While the pole shift is underway, the magnetic field is disrupted and will eventually disappear, sometimes for up to 100 years. The result is enough UV outdoors to crisp your skin in seconds, killing everything it touches.
Tja, was soll ich sagen….

Ehrlich gesagt kann ich es immernoch nicht glauben: Es gibt ein Spiel für die Wii – in der man uriniert – oder einfach formuliert: pinkelt!

Unglaublich…
