"The chief obstacle to the progress of the human race is the human race."

As I said yesterday, when you didn't pay attention, we had an unusual visit between Helsingborg-Helsingør. The visitor was a Hippoglossus Hippoglossus - and is noteworthy mostly because of the funny name, but also for being a funny looking big fish (and of course being the biggest flatfish around, which usually doesn't take this way on its tours - but who cares about that?). The big fish will move in at Helsingborg aquarium, where it will get treatment for some disease and can be seen starting June.

Someone actually seems to admit that there's security issues in voting machines - but of course they won't do anything about it. There's a claim that the web is killing copyright (in my own humble opinion it's only being done faster now than before). Finally, I saw an interesting article about how Lucasfilm is using the game division LucasArts to make quick previews of movies before going into production (I would expect that to be a boost in quality, being able to "watch a movie before making it"). Now I want a renderfarm for my birthday - it doesn't have to cost more than a few hundred thousand euro ;p Interesting for my cutesie is how to make articles.
