Butterfly

As if having a few days to live as a butterfly is not sad enough, this little fella cannot even fly. For whatever reason, the damage to this butterfly’s wings seem symmetrical - how the top of the left wing has dried up and curled is reflected literally identically to the right wing.

Wow, what a bargain

… for a 40GB PS3 at Tsutaya in Shibuya. The price sign says:
Recommended retail price: ¥39,980
Our price: ¥39,979
That’s a saving of ¥1 which is equivalent to US$ ‘1 cent’ and UK£ ‘.5 pence’. How awesome is that?!

This one is rather old (March 2005) but still kinda cool-ish, regardless. Flickr Related Tag Browser is a Flickr photo finder utilising Flash UI and enables the user to surf Flickr’s ‘tag space’.

And here is the prototype for Hot Toys’ The Dark Knight Joker figure and just like their Batman (original costume), it is looking rather tastey. Again, how the final production ones will turn out is an entirely different matter.

With The Dark Knight movie just around the corner, most toy makers have already released new Batman toys, for kids. For adults, the major collector-figure makers are probably putting the final touches to their movie masterpieces around now and Hot Toys have just released images of their upcoming Batman (original costume) and Joker figures (DC Direct released images of theirs a while back but DC Direct figures are crap, imho, hence not worth mentioning).

My 20-inch iMac G5 finally crapped out on me for good last Tuesday - the power unit and the motherboard both went (well, the motherboard was semi gone since last year anyway). It wasn’t even worth considering getting it repaired due to the high cost of both components and labour. Afterall, it is two and a half years old and god knows what other components would blow after I get it repaired. I should have got Apple Care Protection Plan, I should have got it… sigh.
