15 minutes de gloire

April 9th, 2008

South Park et les stars virales de Youtube - un grand moment.
Via ETTF.

Je suis depuis l’été dernier How I met your mother, qui est une série un peu dans le genre de Friends (des colocataires new-yorkais avec beaucoup d’aventures romantiques et de temps en temps des problèmes d’argent) et qui est, globalement, au mieux distrayante. Il y a un couple marié, un type qui cherche son âme [...]

Retour des commentaires

April 1st, 2008

Apparemment, la mise à jour de Wordpress a remis de l’ordre dans le foutoir monstrueux causé par l’importation massive et maladroite des archives des blogs précédents. Je suis donc heureux de pouvoir vous annoncer le retour des commentaires !

We are the Net Set Society

March 13th, 2008

Comme d’habitude, j’ai un peu de mal à trouver des titres pour mes oeuvres. Balls of style était drôle, mais un peu vulgaire tout de même. Bienvenue dans la Net Set Society !
Streets are full of love and fear, this could be the final year
Enrico’s dead but still okay, we dance the streets, feeling well

Note en passant

March 13th, 2008

Les commentaires ne fonctionnent pas. Nous sommes en train de chercher la raison de ce problème. Nous sommes désolé de ce dysfonctionnement.
Edit 1 : le fil Delicious non plus. Bon, là, c’est plus simple, vous pouvez aller consulter nos trouvailles directement sur le site.
Edit 2 : bon, finalement, les commentaires ça ne sert à rien. [...]

Inova Bolt flashlights

April 8th, 2007

The new Inova Bolt lights family is a sort of mix between different models (the entry-level Radiant for the AA form-factor, and the XOx series for the potent led used by Emissive Energy).
This family seems to be a medium-level offer, between the Radiant and the XO-family, the obsolescent X5, while prettier and more compact than [...]

Spyderco Bi-Fold

April 8th, 2007

A dead-born project by Eric Glasser, the c108 Bi-Fold was a very interresting little knife with an ingenious system of lateral folding and as innovative as the CRKT Van Hoy Snap Lock.

Traveller friendly belts

April 7th, 2007

Two approach to avoid being hassled by airport security because of your metallic belt buckle, these two belts swap theirs for a amagnetic ones (”high-tech polymer” for Spec-Ops, Delrin for The Wilderness). Beside this strategic advantage, they are silent (unless traditionnal metallic BDU buckles) and perfectly adjustable. The two models are available in different widths [...]

A very cool little ledlight, running on an AA battery for three hours at about 30 lumens. The design is very brilliant, with a switch on top of the anglehead. The bezel can hold a filter (red or blue) which can be stored at the bottom of the light when not needed. The rotating clip [...]

Alessi Kaj

April 6th, 2007

This simple beautiful watch was designed by Karim Raschid for Alessi.

Available in black, grey, navy blue, pink, orange, and brown. My favourite is the brown. The case is in polyurethane and the glass in acrylic crystal (a little swatchy, but a lot classier). Retail price is $ 85.

The Pelican 7060 is the new L.A.P.D. flashlight, chose for its strenght and reliability but also for politically correctness. Pelican will deliver 10000 led flashlights.
The new torch features a high-impact Xenoy resin body with a dual switch, at the tail and on the head, and is far more powerful while being far shorter [...]

The french internet provider Cegetel is trying to take the succession of the first french telematic revolution (the Minitel) with the offer of a simple computer, running a proprietary-linux, and apparently very easy to use :
“We wanted to create something as simple and cheap as the Minitel to reach technophobes and people without much money,” [...]

Not a recent news, but a very good one, the indian car manufacturer Tata plan to produce the french MDI compressed air engine car. This is the most ambitious try-out (since the mexican contract of the mid-nineties) for the little french manufacturer. We wish them good luck, since their invention could solve a large part [...]

Springtime for Homer

In order to celebrate this event, learn how to draw Homer Simpson, by Homer Simpson :
