Blender 3d

Once, a long time ago, I got this computer program that allows you to create 3D objects, render them, do animations, etc. It was waaaay hard. I tried it for a bit, but I couldn't get it to do anything cool, really. Nothing. So I uninstalled it and forgot about it.

Until it cropped up again, about a week ago. Blender 3D. Awesome application and it is open source, and free. The User Interface is a little (okay, a lot) different then what you are probably used to, but it really rocks. Like it is way easy to manipulate, rotate, scroll, zoom, etc. once you learn the tricks and the keyboard shortcuts. And you should see some of the amazing things that people are making with this program. Sample Images created by blender users.

Now, this is an advanced application. I haven't even begun to tap into it's full powers and abilities, and it has a long learning curve. It won't be easy. But it is fun to tinker around and stuff.

Make a mesh.

The Cephalopod and I

Silently the cephalopod somehow started shuddering as something somewhere suffering screamed out from someones sin. And strangely, when I saw the sin I also started struggling so, to stifle my sensation of a strangling sort of sound. I, descending south and circling, seeking, Swam to save the screaming something. I searched, the sound was sickening; Uncertain, stopped I, listening. The source I sought. The cephalopod, still shaking, swerved and suddenly just stopped and swooned, I ascertained The sound had ceased. I sobbed. Sadly, solemnly, the squid and I, together, side by side, swam home.

xplorer2 : Windows Explorer Replacement

There are quite a few file browsers for windows, and they all generally do the same dang thing. After being used to features available to Windows Explorer, it is hard to switch to something else, because most of those alternatives are lacking in something. I have tried a bunch, but none of them I like more than xplorer2 (lite). Xplorer2, from Zabkat. The lite version is available for private or academic use only. It has all the features available to Windows Explorer, plus it adds more, like dual panes, tabs in each pane, and other cool features like mass rename, visual filters, etc. Plus, when you open it, it remembers where you were browsing the last time you used it. If you would like to know more of why all those features are advantages, email me . That is my suggestion for today.
