I didn’t do it for science: bloody gravel (literally)
… but I think my findings could benefit others 😉 Gravel on cobblestone doesn’t provide the same grip as normal asphalt does when you try to take a sharp turn at high velocity with your bike. This somewhat surprising fact … Continue reading

С днём Победы 2012 (Victory Day)

Not a convert
It’s a trap! I’m more and more convinced that the GPL is just that – a trap. Richard Stallman, aka RMS, was visiting Iceland one year ago and I had the “pleasure” of listening to his talk at Fjölbrautaskólinn. While … Continue reading
Merkozy is dead …

The best satire since Starship Troopers, if you ask me
Officially Iron Sky (plot description contains spoilers!) is a comedic film. This is probably due to the fact that it is not based on a book such as Starship Troopers. It certainly has loads of comic moments, as all satires … Continue reading

A good cause
International Letter & Petition to Asma al-Assad, first lady of Syria. It is a very moving and yet very disturbing clip. Sign the petition here, I did. And spread the word. Although I’m certain that some bigger conflict (Iran) is … Continue reading
