| Thumbs-War movie & Science Articles |
I’ll be short this time since I got lots of code to do, and I need to add all the light-related code in my current opengl application.
Check out this movie called Thumb Wars, which is an excellent, well made parody of Star Wars. Really funny! (I got it from Mike’s movies page, just to give credit where it’s due).
Here are articles I want to read later:
