    This is the next entry in my series of short reviews. Today: energy drinks. The goal: I want a drink that will keep me conscious and productive at work, without having too much sugar. I’m not a health nut, I’m just afraid of the diabetus. So, I found all of the natural/sugar-free energy drinks I…

  • Clif Bar Reviews

    I prefer a lot of small reviews to a few big reviews. So, I’m reviewing seven types of Clif Bars in the same vein as the batches of Wii game reviews I did earlier. My goal: a tasty, reasonably healthy snack for breakfast that’s easily transported to work and doesn’t require preparation. Chocolate Chip –…

  • Review of Exherbo Linux (From A User’s Perspective)

    Exherbo is a Linux distribution led by a small team of opinionated developers. It’s lean, to say the least, but when they give you a solution for something you can believe it’s well engineered and that it does that task well – nothing more. Technically, Exherbo is most similar to Gentoo. It inherited some of…

    Highly recommended logic puzzle – the Masyu series by Tootsweet for iPhone. I’ve beaten Masyu Bug and Masyu, and I’m on to Monster Masyu…

    I didn’t discover it until finding their iPhone app, but AOL Radio is actually really good. It’s the only online radio I’ve found that has real metal stations.

    And now, for the continuation of part one of the mother of all Wii game reviews… 8. Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz: 1/5 This is another easy place to start, because Super Monkey Ball is terrible. For your own sanity and wallet, do not even rent this game. Super Monkey Ball has two game modes.…

  • Mother of All Wii Game Reviews: Part One

    We at Halffull don’t take the easy route. It would be too simple to write ordinary reviews. Let’s up the ante. How about fourteen Wii game reviews?! 1. Super Mario Galaxy: 5/5 This is an easy place to start because the game is delightful. It’s a true spiritual successor to Super Mario 64 and is…

    Magician’s act turns light into a weapon… hard to describe, but worth the couple minutes to watch.
