I am a coffee lover

Today I checked the number of cups of coffee that my trusty coffeemaker made me at home during the last 18 months. I must say I was quite amazed at the number !

3572 cups of coffee in 18 months that means a rough average of 6.5 cups of coffee a day. And I should take into account the number of times I am not at home due to work, holidays or other things, so the average should be a bit higher ...

Each cup made contains 120 ml of coffee, so that is a rough total of 428 liters of coffee and an average of 0.8 liter of coffee a day.

I am happy I am not the only person drinking coffee, my girl-friend sometimes drinks coffee and when friends come over they are also served coffee. So the average cups of coffee I drink myself is not that high ... So let's hope it is at a healthy level :)

[Cool] Live impression of Neo from The Matrix in Britain's Got Talent

This dancer is quite amazing. For some moves it's hard to imagine that they are done without the help of some animation !

[Series] Chuck

I really enjoy watching a nice movie or a nice serie. Currently I am following Fringe, but one episode a week is sometimes not enough. So based on other series, like Hawaii Five-0, I got the advise to check out Chuck. It is a action/comedy serie in which a geek gets plugged with a lot of government secrets and finally gets 2 work with 2 secret agents, one male and one female. The female (Yvonne Strahovsky) is quite hot and is enjoyable to look at :)

[Fun] Where do astronauts hang out ?


I had to smile :) For the ones that do not see it, it has something to do with the spacebar on the keyboard ...

[Tech] A Chinese magical harddrive of 128MB

The 500 GB harddisk which was bought in China was brought to a repair center because it did not work as expected. It looks like a regular Samsung external harddisk:


But on the inside it looks like this, it contains a 128 MB memory stick which is set to loop mode. They made some changes to the controller to represent itself as being 500 GB in size. So next time be warned when buying some Chinese hardware.
