The black hole…
...my black hole...
I bought this book during YAPC::EU::2010, in Pisa. At that moment I just opened the book a little, and found the index interesting. It was a book being auctioned, and therefore my investment was not only thinking in the book contents and their usefulness, but also in the help to the conference organizers. I was […]
No, the movie is not all like that. Yes, it is a comedy. Yes, the story is dull. Yes, it is worth seeing.. if you like to see cheerleaders. There are girls. Lot of them. Probably not really the quality, but the quantity. In any case, it is funny. Have some good time.
YoruFukurou is yet another Twitter client for Mac OS X. The term YoruFukurou is Japanese for NightOwl. Click on the Owl icon to visit it webpage. Why am I using it? Because Echofon is now paid ($20) and present ads in the free version. While I agree with the need of revenue, I do not […]
A new TV series based on the well known character Sherlock Holmes and the respective books written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I am not yet sure if I like or not this new Sherlock incarnation. It takes some time to digest. Sherlock is too young, we are talking about modern London, with cars, cell […]
This afternoon was time for The X-Files, I want to believe. I was never much a fan of the series. Probably because when it started in the TV, in Portugal, I was young and probably afraid of the unknown. In any case, I wanted to see this movie to redeem myself. What I liked on […]
Today was cartoons day. Ice age 3 (hope I am counting them correctly) is great. Personally, better than the first, better than the second. Why? Not so much drama, much more action, much more fun. And, of course, Scrat is there, running around with his love… the acorn (nut). Classification in IMDB? I am in […]
To change a little from Hollywood movies, this one being original from Japan (as far as I could understand). About the movie, the story is well told, with some returns to the past to understand characters histories. Unfortunately it wasn’t enough to understand the full history from Zatoichi, the main character. Nevertheless, the movie is […]
Today I went to the cinema to watch Shrek Forever After, the fourth Shrek movie. I was expecting it to be a plain 2D session but, unfortunately, it was a 3D one. Unfortunately because I do not like to be with the glasses (specially because I use glasses as well), second because it causes headaches […]
Today I watched Kick-Ass, and before anything, I would like to give my compliments to Chloe Moretz (the actress in the photo) that would teach a lot on acting to most of Portuguese actors. Very nice (and I am not talking on the action parts, where stunts and special effects help a lot). Second, I […]
As I posted earlier, I bought a Samsung Blue Earth. You will find out that it is also known as S-7550 and GT-7550. When trying to know its specification, try any site in the web, but run from Samsung website. Its website specifications for this mobile phone are wrong. As a simple example, they state […]
