Simple Gifts for Your Geek

Holiday season's almost here.. have you hugged/bribed a friendly neighborhood geek today? Remember, a willing slave is the best slave.

Gift recommendations:

Fake Mustache
oh.. the possibilities... eye brows/hitler on unsuspected small animals/children to name a few..

USB Hub

Lucky Bamboo Trinket

Night-vision Goggles

Something Personal/Homemade

Gifts to avoid:

Computer Parts
unless you know he/she wants a specific item, avoid at all cost! chances are it's 'teh n00b' and will probably go to waste

Novelty USB Gadgets
unless you tried them and liked it or see good reviews for them, this is a bit iffy as most of these are low quality and a bit flawed/annoying..

Computer Software/Games
he already has it

Movie DVD/Bluray
unless you plan to watch it with him.. otherwise, it could get a bit ronery ; ;


If you like this list, feel free to 'accidentally' link it to your loved ones..

FFXIII Theme Song - Japanese vs International

[Japanese version] [English version]



Lots of haters for the english version on youtube.. I thought it was quite catchy and fits into the mech/magic environment quite well. On the other hand, the japanese version is very mediocre and forgettable..

Marriage. According to Google

Google’s search auto-suggest feature provides some despair inducing insights into the nature of Japanese and Chinese matrimony, seemingly encapsulating the institution in disturbing detail…

Firstly, the English language results for Google.com by way of comparison:

----------------------------------------------------
The suggestions for Google Japan in translation:

For “husband” (夫 / otto):

[I want my] husband to die
[I hate my] husband
Husband average pocket money
Husband verbal violence
Husband pocket money
[How to address] husband
Husband death procedure
Husband depression
Husband unemployed
Husband death pension

Very similar results can be found for “danna,” a word typically used by wives to address their husbands.
For “wife” (妻 / tsuma):

Wife birthday present
Wife birthday present ranking
Wife present
Wife hysteria
[How to address] wife
Wife depression
Wife present ranking
Wife kenjougo (a type of humble speech, traditionally used by wives to address husbands)
Wife common law marriage
Wife shochu (a type of rice liquor)

Anyone thinking about marrying a Japanese woman might be well advised to think long and hard about these results…

---------------------------------------------
Now let's try this on Google China ...

For husband (丈夫）:

Husband's responsibility
This 'husband' thing

Husband hepatitis B pregnant
Write husband in English
Husband drinking alcohol's effect on pregnancy
Husband smoking pregnancy
Ways to call husband
Husband of XXX (celebrity?)
Husband of YYY (celebrity?)

Say husband in English

Not bad eh.  The desirability of Chinese man with strong family sense and economical status might catch on in 20-30 years maybe.. 
Surprisingly(?) most of the common terms used to refer to wife (妻/妻子/太太) all have their suggestions censored ... The only one that returned anything was the informal form (老婆）:

Mrs. Wife (TV drama name?)
Wife cake
Mrs. Wife episode guide
Mrs. Wife 2
Mrs. Wife summary
Wife, lover, soul mate and the difference
Wife without marriage
Wife lyrics

Yep. Smells censored indeed.  I guess they didn't want people to put in wife and clicking "I'm feeling lucky" all day.

Microsoft Photoshopped Black Man out of Advertisment

Many unfortunate incidents in the business world fall under the realm of "What could the involved parties possibly have been thinking?"

Microsoft, whose Windows operating system owns close to 90 percent of the market, experienced one such embarrassing incident on Tuesday, when it was noticed that one of the company's ads on its Polish site was changed from a U.S. version to Photoshop out the face of a black man at a company meeting.

In addition, the photoshopping (or perhaps using MS Paint, by the looks of it) was likely hastily performed, taking no effort to change the color of the man's hand and including a large smirking head that seemed strangely out of place on the body. Additionally, it was also noticed that the man was using a MacBook in both ads, with the logo photoshopped out in both, but the characteristic case was unchanged.

[source]

They should really be complaining abotu all the white people that get photoshoped out of images....

*sigh*... if the guy had been white this wouldn't be an issue...but oh no... because he's black....SUE SUE...make a race issue outta it.

However....clearly...if a MS exec. said "crop that n*gger out of that picture and put one of our own in"... then yes...lay waste to MS. otherwise...

World First - Virtual Idol Live Performance

25,000 tickets sold!

"The distinction between real and virtual idols hardly seems tenable when we consider the almost complete fabrication which goes into creating a traditional 3D idol, with painstaking application of advertising, image management, dubbing, makeup, plastic surgery, and Photoshop enhancement all ensuring the end result bears very little resemblance to the real person."

PS3 Slim on Sale September

[video]

Sony’s longed for PS3 Slim has been greeted rapturously, with the console topping pre-order charts at retailers in the Japan and US alike. Additionally, new firmware has been announced for release (to all PS3s) before the year is out, finally offering full PS2 compatibility.

On the other hand, all the progress the Xbox 360 has made over the years:

The dread Red Ring of Death has long been a feature of Xbox 360 ownership, but a recent survey reveals the shocking truth: the console boasts a failure rate of 54.2%, compared to 10.6% for the PS3 and 6.8% for the Wii.

Microsoft of course never releases statistics on its returns rate, so it has taken a third party survey to uncover the apparent rate. In this case, rag Game Informer surveyed 5,000 readers, asking them about the failure rates of the consoles they owned.

DC Metro Horrors Compilation

[news] DC Metro employees are so high on drugs they can't count to ten

Yeah it's been a crazy couple months with Metro, starting with the fatal accident. Since then drivers have been caught reading while driving, texting while driving, sleeping(!) while driving, talking on a cell phone while driving, and one bus driver was charged with kidnapping for holding passengers hostage. There was also the case last week of subway train doors opening while the train was moving. Welcome to your nation's capital!

Naruto Sharingan Overusage

Naruto version of "Jizz In My Pants"

What's up
My name is Danzo
I used to work with a guy called Hanzo
See how those names conveniently rhyme?
Maybe Kishi foresaw I'd write this ahead of time.
But forget that other guy, he's dead, who cares?
Anyway, some enemies popped outta who-knows where,
And they were after me 'cause I'm the Hokage now.
I'd B.S.'d my way into it, don't ask me how.
So, "Chill, dudes, I got this", I say to my guys,
And I surprise you all (or not) by revealin' what lies
Behind my bandages as I pull 'em aside
And I SHA-RIN-GAN
Sure, this is stupid, to the point of gettin' funny,
But it's still good enough to take your kids' money
While random characters just open their eyes
And SHA-RIN-GAN
Someone accidentally falls on his head
And he SHA-RIN-GAN
Kishi spills some ink on the wrong place
And SHA-RIN-GAN

OK, seriously, guys, let's make some more plot devices...
I GET A SHARINGAN EVERY TIME YOU'RE NEXT TO ME
PRETTY MUCH ANYTIME, EVEN WHEN YOU'RE HAVING SEX WITH ME
YOU SAY IT'S A BAD GIMMICK, BUT I SAY IT MAKES MONEY
IN FACT, WE JUST MIGHT END UP GIVIN' IT TO EVERYBODY

Vanguard Princess

The game itself is a straightforward 2 on 2 moe style fighting game with plenty of pantsu.

Vanguard Princess spent three years in development under the direction of a supposed former Capcom employee, and its quality certainly seems to attest to professional involvement.

Many players are praising the quality of the game, even more so considering its free distribution; it can be downloaded here. (click on the blue button)

RIP TPB

"The Golden Age of the Internet existed between 2001 - 2007. When dsl/cable high speed access reached a zenith and content was unregulated.

Future generations will look back on this time, (if they can) through proxy filters and marvel at the freedom this medium once had. The death of The Pirate Bay, for me, is another hammer in the coffin. Australia's crackdowns, Germany's banning of certain games, Japan's banning of loli raep certain games, it's all rising in a crescendo of freedom dying."

i'll be behind 8 proxxies & 2 filters till this thing's over...

"Michael Jackson dead at 50. In accordance to his will, little boys' pants shall be flown at half-mast."

Michael's death is a whole new level of THRILLER. All of you mean jokers can Beat it. Don't mock Michael's death, that would be BAD. Actually I don't think he really is dead! Just KEEP THE FAITH guys! Worst case, I hope they will catch the SMOOTH CRIMINAL that killed him soon.

random helpline forum entry

've had my GF for quite some time now (practically lives with me), small white, petite thing, cooks for me, always been good to me.

I go away to Phoenix for the weekend (Pokemon stuff), come back and something just doesn't seem right. I asked my dad if he had seen anything happen with my GF and he acts clueless.

So fast forward a few weeks later, I'm coming home from work when BAM clear as day, right in my kitchen I catch my dad red handed with his meat in my GF.

I was pissed, told him to get his meat out of GF and get the fuck out, needless to say my GF got turned off. I just couldn't get over it and that night kicked my GF to the curb.

Now it's been about a week since the incident and that I've been without my GF and about 10 minutes ago my dad had the audacity to ask my how my GF has been, when he's the damn reason we aren't together anymore. So answer me this:

Should I get off the computer and start swinging at him?

OR

Pack my stuff and be on my way?

Pic related, it's my GF
