A group of Swedish treasure hunters called Ocean Explorers, looking for old shipwrecks, stumbled upon something made of rock, steel or something else made of hard material (”Something massive out there…”).

Chinese researchers found a way to create a living data storage system in the DNA of bacteria:
“A single gram of E. coli cells could hold up to 900,000 gigabytes (or 900 terabytes) of data, meaning these bacteria have almost 500 times the storage capacity of a top of the line commercial hard drive”
Told it once and I’m telling it again: everything is programmed. Ninininininini.

For the ones knowing fractals only as early acid house VJ material, I put up a video where the good man himself explains the form. Also because I really cannot explain it myself.
By looking at this clip it looks like humanity is on direct course to be fully mutated with internet.
Hmm, maybe it’s time for me to say farwell to Facebook…
Naaah, not yet.
