Penny :: Documented

October 2010

Starting 2000 every 3 to 4 years or so I build a new PC. In 2000′ish it was Monica. In 2003 it was Hope. In 2006/7′ish it was Kayley. In 2010 it’s Penny. Sometimes I document the build process, most of the time though I just CBA. I guess that there has to be something special about the build for me to want to bother with any form of documentation, after all I spend so much time fussing about with computer hardware in my day job that it’s not really a novelty any more.

Well Penny is the first machine with which I’ve done SLI and water cooling. Yes I know neither of these are new concepts and people have been doing them for years, but for me it’s new ground and worthy of some documentation. (more…)

Unicode Shavian

Shavian is an alphabet that is intended to be used as an alternative to our existing Latin alphabet. There are many reasons why it is both bad and good, ignoring all those it’s fun. Needless to say, I kinda like it.
