Micro Iron Man – chipheadmike Style

I got a wild idea this morning. Pack up the clothes I’ll need for the week into my Battlbox backpack and walk 4 miles to work.

Deposit the clothing and grab a shower.

Return home using the bike I left there last week.

Mission successful. I got a nice 8 mile workout out of it.

Floating Pacific Islands Free From Government

This is a pretty cool idea.

If you’re struggling to do business or just live under your country’s administration, a movement of philanthropists, academics and investors is working on a very sci-fi alternative.

I like the concept and when it comes to overreaching government regulations. I have always felt like I am in the minority or that other folks just don’t care enough.

“If you don’t want to live under a particular government, people will be able to just take their house and float away to another island.”-Nathalie Mezza-Garcia, Floating Island Project

I was thinking about retiring in St. Thomas but this might be a better idea.

Take That Media dot Org

This is the big project I’ll be working on for at least 6 months. The plan is to put a complete archive of all of our shows on the site. We’ve done literally thousands of podcasts over a ten year period and it will all be up for your listening pleasure.

The goal is to have the site ready to go by November 2018. I thought I could get this done by the summer but I’m not holding my breath.

Great Quote

Movie quote from Anon on Netflix.

“It is not that I have something to hide. I just have things I don’t want you to see.”

Productive Weekend

I thought I’d get a chance to post more over the weekend but alas, it was not meant to be.

Saturday was chock full of things to do around the house and Sunday was a full work day for me.

I still have a crap ton of stuff to do related to work and home. I should probably clone myself.

I have also decided to post the entire Take That! Media archive to the web so that anyone can download and listen to all of our old shows.

On Friday night, I listened to the Brass Balls Radio 50th episode (you can listen below) which was hosted by non other than Mark Steyn. It was a great show to produce and brought back a lot of great memories.

I’ve added the archive project to the growing list of things.

Laterz.

Biohacker – Good News and Bad News

Good News: The CEO who injected himself with an untested Herpes cure back in February lived to tell the story.

Bad News: The CEO who injected himself with an untested Herpes cure back in February lived to tell the story — until May.

Additionally…he could also have played Kylo Ren. He looks a little like Adam Driver.

The Raspberry PI Post

I am writing this post on my Raspberry PI. For anyone who does not know what that is…

It is a computer that basically fits in the palm of your hand. They are incredible powerful and do a lot of things. Some use them as their home PC. Some use them for robotics projects. They are amazingly powerful for their size. HDMI video output, 4 USB ports, built-in Wi-Fi and ethernet port. It also supports bluetooth connections.
