Handbrake has quite the following!
They're not incompetent programmers..no they just drop features like DivX/XviD encoding because nobody uses those codecs anymore! Er, at least they shouldn't be!</sarcasm>

I think <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/shake-shack-new-york-2">this was interesting take on the experience</a> of eating at Shake Shack:
"This scene from Pulp Fiction was playing out in my mind as I walked away from the shack with my order in hand. I was trying to figure out why a double cheeseburger, fries and a shake just cost me $15. Ah - it was the $5 milkshake (actually I think it was more like $5.95). I don't know if it was worth $5.95 but it was pretty fucking good."
For the lulz.
In 30 Rock, Tracy Jordan's license plate reads "ICU81MI".
I was wondering what this meant, and was able to find:
ICU81MI: Tracy Jordan's Inscrutable Vanity License Plate
"I see you, 81 me." That's a rap lyric, I think (81 is a sexual position).
as well as:
"I see you ate one, am I?", according to the closed captioning. The joke is that Tracy thinks this is funny, but the message doesn't even make sense.
happy new year, btw!

Whoops! I forgot about that 32-bit-only/non-64-bit aspect of Psyco. Oh well :) most of my computers aren't even that fancy anyways!
Querying the sometimes seemingly all-knowing GOOG for define: capillary attraction yields:
Capillary action, capillarity, capillary motion, or wicking refers to two phenomena:
as per wikipedia, which we all know and agree not to be authoritative, but it's just so easy and.. "there".

The Lonely Island I'm On A Boat (ft. T-Pain) - Album Version /HD/, easily the funniest youtube I've seen in awhile. And the production quality is higher than most "real" rap videos I've ever seen. Actually, on second though, the music is better too..wow.
(Read the full article if you want the lyrics, too ;) (Warning, there are a lot of F-bombs..)
Long Delayed Echoes, or LDE for short are an interesting phenomenon.
Long delayed echoes (LDEs) are radio echoes which return to the sender several seconds after a radio transmission has occurred. Delays of longer than 2.7 seconds are considered LDEs.
A generous human being has gone to the trouble of making psyco for python 2.6 available (it even has an installer. woot.) - Psyco for Python2.6 on Windows (32-bit) Installer.
