folding@home for the playstation 3 has been updated and version 1.1 is now available.
if you´re contemplating that this is just a gimick for sony, think again, the amount of computing power for folding at home has more then doubled since the arrival of the ps3 and the 200k ps3 users helping out is generating more then 400 terraflop of computational power, more then double the amount of pc´s are doing, and yes the amount of pc´s are alot higher then the amount of ps3´s.
kudos to folding and sony and everyone helping out making the world a better place with their ps3.
ps. you´ll have to restart folding to install the update.

Japan.slaughtering dolphins
Nothing new under the sun in other words, but it´s sad and pathetic.
The only good thing about it this time around is that it´s been caught on tape, so you, the world, can now witness it on images and even video.
Which of course and thankfully has made people openly cast their vote against this sad tradition.
This is as wrong as slaughtering monkeys,tigers,wolfs,seals and wales and as such should be condemned, the world needs more animals, not less.
Ah no, im not against eating meat, we love meat and yes i do think it´s perfectly fine killing domestic animals to get meat, but we should care for the few wild ones we have left, and btw killing and torturing aint the same thing regardless of it being a domestic or wild animal.
video, disturbing fotage if you´re sensitive

ps3. calling all cars
Is a neat, fun looking game, and one we´ll purchase as soon as it hits the psn store.
Have to confess to one thing, downloadable light games have realy been a blast, low, low prices and that childhood like enjoyment, psn has truly been a nice ps3 feature and as of now, we´re actually looking forward to cac then any of the blue.ray powered full price games that will be out this spring.
Motorstorm is great, but we have that one, and so is virtua fighter 5, sudoku is another great psn game, easily worth it´s low price tag, and now we´re waiting for one more psn game and not a full price one.

Ubuntu and ps3
Theres a new Ubuntu linux dist out there and apparently it gets along just fine with our ps3 and you can even play blueray,hd dvd movies with your ps3 while using your linux install.
Making ps3 a more then affordable htc for those of you that isnt satisfied with what the ps3 already brings to the table in that area, not to mention that as linux.ps3 evolves it will become smoother and smoother sitting in front of the tv and fixing your openoffice document :)
Anyway, im myself enjoying watching heroes on our ps3(havent installed linux),hdtv system, a quick convert on the pc is all that´s required, which then dumps the files on our fileserver so we can access them from our ps3(all wireless mind you), far better then watching heroes on the pc (the series just started airing in Sweden so we´re watching the usa episodes atm since it´s to good to sit and wait for a week for the next episode :), but mind you, we of course see them when they air on tv aswell, it´s nice to see them with swedish subs, and the serie is good enough to watch twice)
ubuntu speaks up on blue ray,hd dvd

Planet 581 c, our second homeplanet?
Well in a not to far away future it might very well be since according to scientists it´s a near perfect duplicate of the earth and it´s forgiving atmosphere.
Now this is cool news, sure i´ll never see the day when mankind walks on planet 581 c, but it´s fun,cool and exciting to know that we´ve finaly found a planet that actually, more or less mirrors the one we live on.
It´s located around a red star named, Gliese 581, a mere 20.5 lightyears away :)... and the average temperature´s between 0 to 40 celsius.
