Posted on by

Gentlemen, it’s time we get out a bit more.

By its 2nd week “Rambo” was beaten by 27 Dresses and Hanna Montana. Stallone ripped a man’s throat out with his bare hands! We can’t let this happen again.

August 13th… Get to dah theatah!!!

Make sure to watch it fullscreen and in HD. 😉

So Apparently WordPress Can Guide Missiles

First off, all credit goes to DD32 for this. He spotted it and I’ve been laughing ever since at how funny this is.

The following screenshots are from episode 5 of the British mini-series Strike Back:

If you don’t recognize the code, it’s from one of WordPress’ Javascript files called post.js.

Mark Jaquith was even kind enough to port their changes back into the WordPress core. Hilarious.

Ugly Betty Uses WordPress

Jane noticed that Ugly Betty uses WordPress, so I thought I’d post some screen caps. It’s been heavily reworked, but you can still tell the production staff used WordPress as a base.

Pretty funny.

The Muppets: Bohemian Rhapsody aka YouTube Adds 1080p Support

Posted on by

YouTube has supported 720p video for a while now, but if you have a monitor that’s more than 1280 pixels wide, then you’ll be happy to know that YouTube has been rolling out 1080p support for the past week or two.

So what’s the difference? See for yourself using this hilarious example of The Muppets covering Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. Click on the little “HD” button in the bottom-right of the video frame, select “1080p”, and then press the fullscreen button. Of course 1080p video itself is nothing new, however it is something that’s rather rare when it comes to streaming video. I for one am incredibly happy that YouTube has decided to move into the future instead of lagging behind like they have in the past when it comes to video quality.

Now if only I could choose 1080p from the embedded version…
