2 laptops on the ISS has been infected by the W32.Gammima.AG. This virus is made to steal logins and password from online gamers. The virus receive the login and password and then sends them to a remote server. The central operations have not been infected and the worm is described as a “nuisance”. This is not the first time a computer virus made its way to the ISS. Even astronauts should be careful playing WoW.
We had space tourists on ISS, now we also have space viruses.
If you’re a World of Warcraft fan you’re going to love this. So Aaron and Eli decided to have a race from Shadowglen to Darnassus but the race involved actually running not sitting and pressing “W”. So they got a treadmill from amazon, calculated the maximum speed a mouse could track and hooked them up to WoW. The character Running speed was already measured by Tusky. The race lasted 4:50 minutes and the guys had to run 6 mph. I think most of the guys who play WoW would not make it to Dolanaar.

I think there’s no person who had seen “The Dark Night” and wasn’t impressed by it. Bob Dullam was among them. He has built his own batmobile Tumbler from scratch all by himself. The car is exactly like the Tumbler from the movie, Big rear wheels, afterburner Bob even made himself a batsuit. According to Bob he ha spent $50,000 - $70,000 on the Tumbler. His next project is to build the batpod.

The animated movie Wall-E is a hit of the summer. Here are 2 videos of featuring real life Wall-E. Just look into those sad eyes, I mean sensors. Don’t you just want to hug him? As for the movie I’ve not heard of or know any people who were disappointed.

Who says guns shouldn’t be pink with a big label Gucci or Chanel on it. These were designed by Peter Gronquist who resides in Oakland California. I personally like designer chainsaws. If you are going to be cutting down trees, why not do it in style? I can picture the lumberjack now, all in pink with a chainsaw from Gucci
Many of us have laptops but sometimes using a laptop can cause discomfort. Here is a list of position you might want to try to have a more comfortable time with your laptop.
Position 1- classical or missionary.
It practically erases the difference between a laptop and a desktop. This is the position in which most of laptop users sit daily. This is a normal position and you shouldn’t be ashamed of it. Portability is an important feature of laptops, and it is made for your comfort.
Position 2 - web surf.
A little modification of missionary/classical position that leads to a great increase in comfort.
Position 3 - I’m a boss.
This position is especially popular in countries where putting legs on the table is normal.
Position 4 - at the airport.
This position is ideal for places where the power plugs are purposely placed by stupid designers far from all seats.
Position 5 - in a line.
Ideal for a short-term wait and it allows you to concentrate on your comfort and not worry about power plug locations.
Position 6 - at home.
This is the second popular position after the missionary position. Some people consider it the most natural.
Position 7 - romantic night.
Don’t use this position to chat with friends because it easy to fall asleep. You can fall asleep and keep typing scaring the hell out of everyone.
Position 8 - weekend.
Very comfortable on a firm sofa.
Position 9- lazy morning.
Can be used on a bed or on the floor. Very comfortable position especially for reading large pieces of text.
Position 10 - on a picnic.
Perfect when there’s nothing to sit on although you will need something to put th elaptop on, like a stump or rock.
Position 11 - oriental.
This position appeared before the laptop. Despite looking very uncomfortable many people use this position with great joy.
All the listed position are really simple and you can experiment with them to find which one suits you the best. The list can be expanded with the help of your personal experience. Don’t be ashamed to try all positions.
