IRC Quote of the day.

8:47 < derek> teleolurian: Lady in the water was based on a fairy tale that MNS’s parents used to tell him when he was a kid
8:47 < derek> it’s based on the “Water origins” Mythos
8:48 < teleolurian> “one day there will be an indian screenwriter who doesn’t write bollywood level shit”
8:48 < teleolurian> yeah, that’s a fairy tale
8:49 < derek> by that I mean the “People used to live in the water, now they live on land” one, not the evolution one
8:49 < teleolurian> so can somebody sum it up for me like this: http://www.rinkworks.com/movieaminute/m/interview.shtml
8:49 < teleolurian> apparently there’s a cookbook involved, that’s all i can see on wikipedia
8:50 < derek> Chick lives in pool, dog things don’t want her in pool, Paul Giamatti.
8:50 < derek> there.
8:50 < teleolurian> thank you
8:50 < teleolurian> that’s much better
8:50 < d> lol

Firefox 3: The Next Generation

Don’t get me wrong, I love the Firefox web browser. It’s the greatest thing since tacos. But Firefox 2 has some of the worst performance problems I have ever seen! On Linux, if I leave one tab open with a flash movie playing, the Firefox process will eventually grow to enormous proportions. Yes, I know this seems like a Flash plugin problem, and it very well may be. But I do know that if I open the same page with Firefox 3b5, the memory usage stays constant the entire time.

Nerdie Networks EditDNS project

Forgot I was going to post a little plug for the guys over at Nerdie Networks for their EditDNS project. EditDNS is a free DNS provider with a ton of features. Need DNS? go to EditDNS. Don’t know what DNS is? It’s like a magic phonebook for the internet.
