Weekend Quick Links

A few quick links for the weekend (nowhere near as many as normal, but sleep beckons):

  • Operashow Generator – Use Opera as a cheap but pretty powerpoint substitute. A very nice feature.
  • Decompression Bombs – Overload most computers by creating special zip files. They start off at 7k, and unzip to 100Gb. Frightening, cool and utterly amazing at the same time.
  • iCapture – A service that displays pictures of websites as seen by Safari, for all the appleless developers. Handy.
  • Unicode Spaces – Unicode has an insane number of space characters. Wasteful.
  • Free Rockstar Classics – Rockstar are offering their old games (optimised for modern PCs) for free. The current two are the classic Grand Theft Auto, and Wild Metal Country. A superb idea, and absolutely the right thing to do.

And that’s all for the weekend.
