Alphaworld back up
AW is back (shortly after the news post below was posted). Nothing has changed though, and AW Mapper is still down.
AlphaWorld Down…
As you all know, AlphaWorld has been down for a couple days now. Comit and others are speculating that they are moving it to a newer hard drive (which means mapper updates.. mapper is down also, which is a clue). Hopefully AW comes up as soon as possible but in the mean time, visit Zklipse world. It’s Vornox’s world that a few SW’ians have been hanging out in and building.
Oh, you can also visit JACOB AND SW AND VORNOX CITY in Jacob world. We are thinking about closing SW City and working on this new one which is better planned and more carefully designed.
Mars Gets a New Caretaker
Some you may know him from Yeti City. Some of you may not know him at all. Whether you know him or not, Veger has PS in Mars and he is planning to do something with the ever-undisturbed planet.
Mars, which was one of the Public Building worlds released by COF back in 1997, has been much like the real Mars planet for some time now: deserted.
Mars now has move/rotate and 3d-axis rotation thanks to Veger. Tourists are also allowed back in! So if your interested, drop by Mars and test out their new commands on a Mars colony of your own.
Happy holidays and happy folding
First off, I hope everyone had a good holiday season. And, happy news years, hope everyone has lots of fun.
After many months, a new version of Folding@Home is out. Version 4.0 contains bug fixes, new GUI options and some performance enhancements. You can get it here for Windows: by clicking here.
Merry folding and a happy new protien ^_^
The Real World
Seems like Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary is ruffling a few feathers of McDonald’s.
Since we all wonder what 10 billion pennies would look like, I thought I’d post this
A miss beauty contest for geeks ^_^ Introducing the Miss Digital World beauty contest. I wonder if MsTourist will be there?
I love high tech gadgets. I wouldn’t mind having a cell phone wristwatch.
Oops! Microsoft screwed up again.
Here’s an update on the next-gen DVD standard – BluRay.
