A few links for today

Some guy made his own watch from scratch, and posted a bunch of stuff all about it. Pretty neat, and tough! That’s some hardcore fabrication skills.

This movie looks really neat. I guess it’s by the guy who did the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Free TV! streaming and stuff, worked 80% of the time for me ;)

Lastly, here’s an interesting disease: Argyria is caused by the ingestion of silver. Wikipedia has more on the subject.

That’s all for now, back to your daily grinds.

A Tent That Pitches in 2 Seconds: Before It Hits the Ground

Yes, 2 seconds; simply toss the folded-up tent in the air, and by the time it hits the ground, it’s pitched. All you have to do then is attach it to the ground with tent pegs so it doesn’t blow away or anything. These tents are really neat!

Takedown is just 15 seconds (once you get the knack I guess). The really nice deluxe 3 man tent with extra vents is like £50, or like $100. Not too bad!
