Ah, would that such a scene could ever have been possible IRL! All the Doctors at Christmastime in the Tardis, neatly composited by Andy Lambert.
Apparently, quite a lot of people are turning GoDaddy into GoneDaddy, over their active participation in SOPA's creation and promotion. So sad. (Let's not forget the CEO has an impressive track record of being a prize asshat anyway)
There appear to be one or two comments on the entry where LJ staff solicited feedback on the recent comments pages changes. =:D (This comment in particular is worthy of
metaquotes; and there's a great t-shirt design, too).. and lo, a couple hours later, it did find its way to
metaquotes. ^_^What TV presentation are you most looking forward to over Yule (or local equivalent)? For me, I'll have to say it's Doctor Who. ^_^ Films, nah - I've either seen them a while ago, or they're on one of the drives or archival DVD-Rs. Still, if I were in the right company, there's plenty of more esoteric works I'd probably enjoy. (CALLING ARKANSAS, COME IN ARKANSAS)
If you're a web designer, or general application programmer, you might like to see that the Met Office has opened up their data feeds for public use, apparently with no fees involved.
As publicity stunts go, this ranks as one of the more inspired.. the Watching Paint Dry Championship. If you emerge victorious, you'll walk away with a shiny new iPad.
Somewhat surprisingly, iMAME recently appeared on the iTunes Store. Whilst it got yanked prior even to iTunes Connect coming back online on Dec 29, it was actually just a build of a project whose existence I hadn't even been aware of. Curiously, the version on the Store had iTunes file sharing turned off, thereby necessitating the use of third-party apps such as iExplorer (free, OS X or Windows) to explore the device filesystem to add ROMs. If you've got a paid iOS dev account, or a jailbroken device, you can build your own version, with said file transferring ability enabled. ^_^ (And having just tried it, I can confirm it works quite happily on my iPad 1, running iOS 5.1b2, using Xcode 4.3, although Crazy Climber's controls are very clunky)
