An advantage to vector and 3-d graphics

Someone ran a old PS2 game through an emulator that let them raise the video resolution. It went from looking like a mid-1990s game to a mid-2000s remake.

Remembering how scared the RIAA was of music on the internet, I find it hilarious that the studios put all their best songs on Youtube so you don't have to buy their albums to have a listen.

[EDIT] and in related three-year-old not-news-to-anyone-but-me, Funimation put all six eps of FLCL on Youtube. Nice.

[Edit #2] Funimation has a whole bunch of series on Youtube. Niiiiice.

Toilet humour

A story from the Vietnam war:

The flight was a Dixie Station strike (South Vietnam) going to the Delta. When they arrived in the target area and CDR Stoddard was reading the ordnance list to the FAC, he ended with "and one code name Sani-Flush" ... The toilet was a damaged toilet, which was going to be thrown overboard. One of our plane captains rescued it and the ordnance crew made a rack, tailfins and nose fuse for it. Our checkers maintained a position to block the view of the air boss and the Captain while the aircraft was taxiing forward. Just as it was being shot off we got a 1MC message from the bridge, "What the hell was on 572's right wing?" There were a lot of jokes with air intelligence about germ warfare.
