    @Kaiser-Machead:

    I know this sounds and looks beautiful and amazing and super-cool, but after reading the articles Giz posted the strains in Dubai and other Gawker sites talking about the horrors of Beijing, I just hope that the people building this eco-friendly building are treated well by USA and European standards ( amongst other countries that treat their citizens well ).

    I take it in their evaluation of the greenest toilet papers, they don't take comfort into consideration, which is why they appear to be recommending sand paper and barbed wire over Scott and Charmin.

    I want to know what the greenest Greenpeace-like group is. Because, I've seen GP do some decidedly environmentally unfriendly things in the name of being environmentally friendly.

    Or you know, if you were REALLY green, you would not even use toilet paper. Arguably, that would make you brown, though.

    @Con Seannery '09: Illegal in 1 Giz: Oh, and not meaning to slight you, Con S, regarding the whole star thing, you should have one as well...but I suspect the conspicuous absence of said item probably relates to that whole anti- [group no one is allowed to discriminate against] campaign.


    AND SPEAKING OF WHICH...

    @Con Seannery '09: Illegal in 1 Giz: Yes it is true. Got the info from the Chenster himself earlier today. While I'd known it for hours, I was just waiting for a good way to work it into a conversation...and a reply to you seemed to be the perfect place!


    Now, I know it's true for all Facebook accounts going forward, but can't be sure about how it affects any existing accounts that may have already been actively commenting (for good or for bad). Anyway, when Jason told me, my response was a fast and hearty


    HALLELUJAH!

    In reply to Delightfully Eccentric Lamps Make Use of Obsolete Technology
    When it comes to lamps I am quite a bit more flexible with crazy artistic designs.


    I myself started to put the pieces together for my own homebrew techpunk lamp, but that project got sidelined when another extremely cool lamp came my way that gave me that effect with minimal modification and a cool bulb from Spencer's Gifts of all places.


    I absolutely LOVE the three bulb designs.

    It's where I originally intended to go with my own design and it's done really well here.


    I've recently come to the conclusion that every man-cave should have at least one really cool and unusual lamp.

    (whether it's a major award or not.)

    "The round bulbed one was made from a water-cooled dual processor yanked from an Apple G5 desktop"


    What.


    I checked the flickr page, exactly what it says...but...what?


    How does water-cooled CPU = light?


    <--- Confused.
