With a baby on the way,(and the parents amongst you will know how muchthey cost) it was an opportune time to figure out where we could save a little money each month. Going through the finances line by line was revealing – one of our major outgoings was our TV satellite service. I love sport and movies, so we had the full package from our provider, but when we talked about it, we were no longer watching as much TV as we used to – and the programmes we both loved were available free to air. So we took the decision to cut the cord, and swap our satellite service for Freeview (the UK’s free to air digital TV service). Of course, that meant losing our DVR, so picked up a relatively cheap ASRock Nettop (the Intel Atom/NVIDIA ION powered ION 330) which could handle 1080p high definition video and came with HDMI out, so it was a cinch to hook up to the TV.

The Egg The Egg By: Andy Weir You were on your way home when you died. It was a car accident. Nothing particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. You left behind a wife and two children.

You looked around. “More or less,” I said. “Are you god?” “Yup,” I replied. “My kids… my wife,” you said. “What about them?” “Will they be all right?” “That’s what I like to see,” I said.

Silk is an interactive drawing program (with music) in which you weave patterns of silky wisps of smoke across the screen to create horizontally-mirrored art. Sometimes you'd like to draw with many lines at the same time. Have you ever made colored sand sculptures in a glass jar? RGB is pretty simple. Cat Bounce shows you bouncing cats.
