No, it's not what you think.

I saw District 9 on Friday.

I see a lot of movies, both at home and in the theater. I probably don't see quite as many as a professional movie critic, but I do love movies. I also love science-fiction in all its various forms. District 9 combines the best of both.

No, that's not a science-fiction way of telling someone to screw off.

Are you a fan of the Terminator movies? Do you like playing around with pictures of yourself or your friends? Well, then Terminate Yourself is for you! This website lets you take a photograph of a person and munge it into an evil terminator. How fun is that?

And, yes, it's part of an advertising campaign for the latest Terminator movie, but it's still fun.

Ever wonder what the weather looked like in Tokyo?

Good old science-fiction.

Hey, want to hear something cool?  Head over to Escape Pod and listen to Charlie Stross' latest story, Rogue Farm.  But, first, stop by Biology in Science Fiction for the link, so they know we care and appreciate them bringing these kinds of stories to us.

Oh, if only I could have one of these in real life and remove tourists from the airport!

I just can't bring myself to trust something from a car care company for my servers.

Because, this is totally why I got into computers.
