World of Warcraft + Wii

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

Theres a guy who managed to hack a Wii to play World of Warcraft with the Wii remote. That is amazing and ingenious, I am not a Wii fan but laying on the couch mindlessly killing mobs in a relaxing way, heck that sounds kinda damn fun lol. Might even play with a buzz if thats the case.

Constitution

It is amazing to me how Americans take the new government invasion of privacy so calmly. I figured when the day came that the hillbillies would come flooding out of the hills, with shotguns and hounds by their side to set things right.

In specific, I am speaking about how the President and the NSA have openly said, yeah we copy your email and tap your phones without a warrant and we don’t care if you like it or not.

Fascinating.

But I assumed someone would get upset. Nope, we rolled over as a nation and said “Rub my belly” and in a sense they do. Things like Hollywood and Cable TV, and now the internet are lil toys we are given to keep us from being focused on political matters.

Its working.

The old sleight of hand works too. Everyone is focused on this invisible enemy and misses the ones in front of their face.

Maybe you disagree, but take the time to compare the Nazi SS and the Department of Homeland Security.

Little lessons

Monday, August 20th, 2007

I learn more from small children than I do from all the manual I read.

Whats more, the stuff kids teach me is the important stuff. Kids don’t hate, we teach them to do that. Kids give everything from the bottom of their hearts.

Take the neighbor’s kid. He spends his time collecting “beautiful rocks”. To him, they are rare and hard sought gems. He is very very proud of his stones and if you allow him he will show you his prized gems.

If you are indeed impressed and he notices, then he will shine up his most favorite, and with no expectations from you it is yours. to keep, and yet it is apparent it is dear to him, yet he has no thoughts of selfishness believing that his rock will make you as happy as it did him.

That is a deep and powerful lesson  right there alone. You cant learn that in a book.

Microsoft 1978

Monday, August 13th, 2007

i am known for making fun of Microsoft, so while I am doign that, I am also making a valid point.

This is a photo of the people that came to be Microsoft. Now the largest most powerful corporation in the world.

Who knew? I mean, if these folks approached you and asked you to invest in this coporation, would you? Most wouldnt. But even more, these folks for all their lack of fashion, were also pitching the idea of building machines that could send mail without paper, and putting user friendly computers in every home in America.

I wonder how often they were scoffed?

And now, how far they have come! It boggles my mind, and it goes to show you cannot judge a book by its cover. As much as I dislike Microsoft, my hats  off to these guys, not only are they ridiculously wealthy, they changed the world.

Bear in mind the person you next speak to in 10 years could be president, or some wealthy influential person.

I Must Have This!!!

This piece of sexiness is the Alienware Area-51 m9750! Hot huh?

For example, it has TWO 512 mb Nvidia graphics cards.  TWO hard drives TWO processors. A 17 inch High Def screen.

The hard drives are 250GB each. It comes stock with 2 gigs of DDR ram. That and the vid cards make serious gaming a reality on a portable machine.

It has a DVD burner with Bluray.

Admit it, you want one too.
