Dear Ea,
Red Alert 3 sucks. I’ve only played the soviet campaign so far, but here are some of my thoughts:
* The clothes the soviets wear (in the movies) look really cheap, and not very realistic… at all.
* When using computer-generated backgrounds, they’re supposed to be out of focus when you have characters in the foreground [...]

I found this article this morning, about some scientists who suggest that the universe is laid out in a fractal pattern… which is pretty hectic. Of course this challenges the current “big bang” theory, so “Many cosmologists find fault with their analysis, largely because a fractal matter distribution out to such huge scales undermines the [...]

I use a couple of programs that I probably couldn’t live without… most of them are portable (or can just be run without needing to be installed), and all of them are free. Combined they weigh in at under 20mb - a very small price to pay for the functionality.
I’ve listed them in alphabetical order, [...]

I just read about a program called “CleanMem” on gHacks.net, it’s a little program (36kb) that reduces the amount of memory that running programs use. There are lots of programs out there that claim to do the same thing that work by filling your memory, forcing stuff to be moved out and into a file [...]

So Google have released their own browser, called “Chrome” - am I the only one who thinks it’s logo looks like a Pokeball (from Pokemon)?

I found a few extra items in the Quest for Glory 2 remake, including the elusive Blue Frog (which allowed you to cheat, in the original - “suck blue frog” anyone?)… Apparently you get it using the bellows with the air elemental in, and use it by pressing F10, or something like that?

I saw this on my way home from work - it’s a Lamborghini Countach. I want one. When I was younger a had toy of one next to my bed, it was my dream to own one (but white).

I spent the morning sorting out all the stuff on my computer - I wrote close 20 DVDs, and now have 43 GB more disk space free, but what a mission.
I’m in the process of ripping all of the DVDs I own to “.avi” so I can just watch them off my hard drive, but [...]

I didn’t think much of these videos by their titles, but they’re insane.
The first shows they’re able to easily cut objects out of a video - as if they were filmed on a blue/green screen - without having to cut out the object in every frame. It’s called the “Interactive Video Cutout“.
The second shows how [...]
