Posted by Catfish as animalz, archeology, history, science, survival

Researchers in Brazil have uncovered the skeleton of perhaps the most immense species of dinosaur discovered yet. Stretching 105 ft long, and about 43 ft high, Futalognkosaurus (FOO-ta-long-koh-SOHR-us) dukei, a plant eating behemoth, is thought to have lived about 88 million years ago during the Cretaceous period. The neck length alone of this beast is 56 ft, with a single vertibra measuring around 3ft tall. The site area where the bones where found is said to have been a veritable dino-bone all you dig buffet, with over 1000 specimens being unearth in the region.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

What is this all about you might ask? I stumbled upon the following site on uncyclopedia.otg, all of the text consisting of the letter A, over and over again, much like the hilarious attempts of businesses in the yellow pages to be listed first by including a cha cha lines of the letter A in front of their business name…

(aaaa)

Now that you feel like you’ve wasted precious life points staring at the oddity, go back, waste a few more while you check out the links. If you roll over the links, you will see that the links will take you to Oscar Wilde’s page,a link to the iPod yocto page (which is apparently Apple’s 1337th iPod version released this year alone and which COINCIDENTLY relates to the news story just posted here earlier about Nano Radio), a page about sandwitches (evil bad creature that can disguise itself as a sandwich…you’ve been warned) and the holy of holies, Bat Fuck Insane. Here you’ll find where MAD Magazine might have gone if it were truly and indeedlydo Bat Fuck Insane. MAD Magazine after the brown acid.

The page begins with a notice to all who arrive on the steps of BFI:

“This article is complete, irredeemable bread knife. The submitter is Bat Fuck Insane, and worships at the underarm hair.f you attempt to deport this, you will most explosively become Bat Fuck Insane yourself.Or the submitter will bamboozle your octopus.”

Looking at this page, I am afraid of it. I can just feel the voodoo that was used to make such a page, and I for one and not going to “deport” one iota of its schizolicious goodness. And when I say schizolicious, I’m talkin’ lobe licken’…

I’ll be eating a bowl full of depokote 500mg tablets with rice milk until I come down from reading the whole thing. that's me dressed up as depakote Warning, this sit has a bit of the Necronomicon effect: it might just possibly plant the seed of insanity in your brain just by the act of you reading it, until you too become and are irrevocably Bat Fuck Insane.

Nano radio

Posted by Catfish as Computerz, Tech, enviornment, science

When I was 8 or 9, I remember hearing about how certain people, after they had gotten fillings in their mouths, had inexplicably inherited the ability to hear radio stations. I thought the very idea was the coolest thing I had ever heard. Imagine sitting in class, or in church, Sunday school…slightly clenching your teeth and hearing the sweet sounds of Huey Lewis and the News being snatched from the air by your molars. Years later we’ve got the iPod, which is small in size, but still detectable enough to get confiscated in class…but now Scientists have produced the first working radio that receives radio waves wirelessly and then converts those waves into sound through a nano-sized detector made of carbon nanotubes. Just imagine the potential ramifications of this…all of the equipment and electronics that clutter up our homes, and eventually our landfills will soon be reduced to the size of a few grains of rice.

Probably more likely to happen first is Big Advertising will get a hold of the technology, and we’ll have them float in our ears while we sleep, as they hum subliminal straight into their target: our brains. Zestfully, zestfully, zestfully cleeeeeaaaaan…wait, why am I singing that? At least in the future, I will have the nanos to blame.
