No, it’s not that House M.D. episode. It’s a set phrase, or a saying. Maybe a quite, an adagio, a cutural reference which is very common. Actually, there are versions of it referring to the same concept in the majority of languages and cultures. It’s a constant, which comes actually from the fact that we humans are social animals, and societies reflect very well the defects of their individuals. (more…)

¿La intención es lo que cuenta?

Hoy (bueno, un día de estos) me he despertado con una pregunta en la cabeza, aunque es una de esas preguntas difíciles de poner por escrito. Aunque en mi cabeza está clara, incluye conceptos e ideas en una red compleja de implicaciones, ardua de desenmarañar. Así que quizá sea mejor obviar la pregunta y comenzar con alguna explicación. Tal vez al leer alguna respuesta, se pueda comprender la pregunta. Así que preparaos para una lectura densa y abstracta. De hecho, casi os recomendaría no leer esto… (more…)

This is Ilargi, my twelve year old female cat, and she’s not a siamese cat. She’s a Thai cat.

The modern Thailand, formerly kown as Siam, is the origin of several native breeds of oriental cats. The first oriental cat breed recongized in the West was the siamese, taking its name from Siam - although incorrectly, since that variety was extended over all the asian southeast. (more…)

Well, today is the day of various things. First, it’s Valentine’s day, an artificial and commercial celebration, but a perfect excuse to have some time with a significant one, if you have the luck of having one. Every day should be Valentine’s, but since it is not possible, well, there you have.

Second, it’s the chinese new year. Happy new year to all the people who celebrate it; regardless of your culture, new year is always an important moment to think about the past and the future and the booze.

Third, it’s the day I’ve decided to dedicate to “thank” the genius who decided that blu-ray disc cases should be different in height and thickness than DVD cases. Since sarcasm and internet don’t go very well, I’ll say plainly that it’s the second worst thing about blu-ray (first being the price). The cases, shorter and thinner, make my original movies collection look awkward, the blu-rays disappear unless I decide to put them apart (and why if I don’t want!), and in general it just messed up a standard case size which is now 15 years old. Whoever decided to change the case to make the blu-rays to “stand out”, well, commited a humongous mistake.

Xtatix

I am proud to announce the first public release of Xtatix. It’s a demo pack in video format, consisting of more than 300 demos captured in AVI and MPEG, scattered among four full DVDs. You can learn more at the Xtatix homepage, where you’ll find all the info, including the lists of the demos included, and also a torrent file you can get and use with your bittorrent client to acquire the four DVDs.

Xtatix is a totally freeware and legal production so I’ve used OpenBitTorrent as the main tracker; however you’re also free to upload the torrent to other public trackers. I hope that you enjoy Xtatix whether if you’re a demoscene fan, or if you’re new to demos and you are experiencing them for the first time.

Since I seem uncapable of creating more written work to post here, I’m showing you some pictures. First of all, behold my new Toshiba Regza XV555DG, a black 37″ television to enjoy my always growing DVD collection. Next, meet Punki, the guest we had past weekend. It’s a mix of persian with gray-tiger european, green-yellow eyes, and extra-long fur with awesomely impressive tail. He’s only six months old and still very playful. Finally, you can see the Cristobal Colon, a huge ship entering the port. Here you have two pics so you can witness its sheer size.
