Mobile Devices... everything is better?
You can hear it all over again today: "Oh, the newest smartphone is here... the PC is no longer of any use!" or "PS3, XBox and PCs... nobody needs them anymore, my cellphone is better andway..." Before I begin: I like Android and I like my smartphone (own one of the fastest around currently) but these statements are just WRONG. Any good PC is much, much faster than any smartphone... The more performance you need, the better a stationary computer ...

My Makerbot Replicator 2 at work
Here is a video I captured with my cell phone (because of that the shaking camera) to show you how my makerbot works with a larger object with a spool from Plastic2Print and a special spoolholder for that. The file for Makerware to print the spoolholder can be found here: You may find it interesting to hear the loudness/noisyness of the Replicator 2 here, because I am talking with a normal voice even a little less loud than normal maybe here.

MassEffect 1-3: One of the best games of all times
In general I am not going to show you games here, but this one really stands out... The triology of Mass Effect is really a great one and you shoudl really start at the beginning! The storyline is very deep and strong, that strong and deep that I have to say it is the best I have ever seen in a game. It has it all: Anger, love, friendship, betrays, desperation, hope, fun and a real deep and great way to tell the storry. I have never seen something ...

Spools from Plastic2Print
After receiving my PLA-spools from Plastic2Print there is one good and one bad thing about them: The good thing is, that the plastic is of a very nice quality and my Replicator 2 can print with it very nicely. The bad thing: They dont fit on the spool holder of the Replicator 2. But there is a solution for that: Just print your own spool holder! The first part was the most difficult one: I had to get some plastic from the new to the original ...
