Oh, heads up!

I’m in the process of starting a new web hosting solution for my friends, family, and colleagues. The service is dedicated to providing quick  customer support response times and easy to use web hosting tools (this alleviates headaches of most hosting providers). Starting out, I will be the sole person managing the servers, applications, and support. Your questions, comments and concerns will go straight to me. The best part about this service is that I can now offer you any web related service (ruby on rails, postgresql, ad serving, social network integration, endless etc.).  If you would like some solid, secure, and highly customizable hosting on my managed dedicated servers then please contact me at fantomstranger.net. Keep an eye out here for web hosting discounts by subscribing to the fantom-stranger.com facebook fanpage.

I tinkered a bit with my facebook integration and you can login again with facebook and post comments. You won’t be forced to use your facebook account though.

I also added some publishing features to manually post to facebook while my posting service fixes it’s issues.

Bioware, the masters of hype, shitty combat systems, and universes that hinge on a single guy have spat out their latest and greatest. This one’s got screen shots! Feel free to check out my opinions of the game. If, you know, you’re in to that sort of thing.

I beat this game about a month ago, and finally decided to toss something up on the site about it. It’s a fairly short review, and since I can’t just hit my print screen button when I’m playing, there’s no screen shots, sorry. Agree or disagree (probably more of the later), give it a read. Hope you enjoy.

I found a digital guitar creates electronic music and runs Gentoo linux on Hack a day. It looks really fun and I approve of this.

Don’t think “acoustic” or “electric” but “electronic”.

Stepping into the verse’ of the known, we try to change our concept of reality with technology. It’s a very weird feeling moving your ideals into a new plane of thought. Augmented reality is such an approach that you perceive extra dimensions on-top of your physical plane. Here is a building that displays QR codes that can be used for a variety of applications (shopping, twitter updates, advertising, entertainment, etc).

The iPhone application is not in the iTunes App Store, but is available to interested parties on request. The project is a collaboration between teradadesign and Qosmo.

Imagine yourself walking around the grocery store holding your phone up to every product for up-to-date reviews. Imagine going out to a night club, pointing your phone at a person  to view their social profile (“Oh, that person like’s cheese?”). There may be a time where you browse your favorite books at the library with QR codes. You could put a QR code on the back of your transportation that links to your website. The best part about QR codes is, you don’t know what you’re going to get. It’s like finding treasure (good or bad).

define:cyborg

a human being whose body has been taken over in whole or in part by electromechanical devices; “a cyborg is a cybernetic organism”

Scientists in some labs have crafted synthetic red blood cells, setting into stone another step towards becoming a cybernetic. The lab made cells act like the real deal. Each cell is created by layering proteins inside a microscopic almost-doughnut shaped mold. These fake human blood cells can carry oxygen, are biodegradable, are squishy, stretchy and mimic the evolution mastered red blood cell shape too fit through capillaries with ease. Awesome for the future and medical innovation.

Go team advancement!

Props to discover.
