Original picture from some magazine:

What it turned into:

Meanwhile in Egypt

2011-01-28T12:20:00.002-05:00

Points of interest this last half hour, Cairo:

1. Military has shown up, has not stated what side they are taking.
2. Rioters and Police waring over the Octo' bridge.
3. A curfew has been put in place (from 6pm to 7am), anyone breaking the curfew is 'breaking the law', commuters are totally fucked as public transport has shut down.
4. The total baller who managed to throw a Molotov through the gunner port of a security van.
5. Riot police keep getting pushed back.
6. Government buildings on fire, ruling party buildings burning very fiercely, taking the main brunt of the rioter's attacks.
7. Live ammunition gunfire (automatic weapon) around the ruling party building, directed into crowd of protestors.
8. National Museum in the line of fire spread, no way to get fire services to scene.
9. Final prayers still took place! Unbelievable. Everyone broke off rioting to form lines and pray.
10. Police fire tear gas into praying crowd... Uh oh... HOLY SHIT... some total hero catches the damn thing and throws it right back at them!
11. Pray time over, back to rioting and dodging live gunfire.

Megaman Online Review

2010-11-22T12:35:00.000-05:00

MMO (Mega Man Online) the MMO (massive multiplayer online game) looks like an MO (multiplayer online game) suffering an MO (missed opportunity) re: selling its MMO (multimedia objectives) despite this MO (modus operandi) being well within the OM (operating margins) of MM (most media), and when the MO of an MO-looking MMO like MMO suffers from such MMO MO, we should all take OM (one minute) to MO (muse over) our MMO (means, motive and opportunity) to play an MMO as it relates to MMO's MO and OM.

IMHO.

GMAIL to offer free phone calling in US - RIP Skype

2010-08-25T17:25:00.002-04:00

http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/call-phones-from-gmail.html

The title and article in the OP is not really clear, but in one swift kick, google has killed Skype.
Unlimited calling in the US/Canada for free.

Skype has already responded with a direct attack on Google.

The Google announcement came as a surprise, and would be a clear attack on the Skype service.
In what would best be termed a retaliatory announcement, approximately two hours after Google issued their press release, Skype announced a new email service, SMAIL (S[kype]Mail), which, according to their announcement "will be entirely free and which will be closely integrated with the premium Ask search engine, offering a paradigm changing way for users to get and use email. We also plan to introduce an integrated mapping engine to SMAIL. At Skype, we have always believed true innovation comes from thinking outside the box, and with our new email service we think you will begin to see the fruits of that way of thinking."

Skype expects to begin offering a beta version of their service within the next few months.

That is the weakest retaliatory response I've ever seen. Skype: "We charge for calls, but heres free email!" to Googles "We offer free calling to any US/canada phone, and we've been providing the best email service since 2003!"
Should be noted that calls are only free in 2010, which amount to about 4 months before they take a look at their competition and decide to start charging/not.

>Today, in history we are starting a research paper, we have to pick a topic from history that interest us. I immediately knew what I was going to write about: the Southern vampire Wars from Eclipse. I was so excited and knew my paper would be best, then i remembered they are not a real event. MLIT.

>I've always been extremely clumsy, but now, whenever I fall down or get a paper cut, I feel happy because. MLIT.

>Today, I was in my kitchen. I was hungry. I got some ice cream from the freezer. The cold air from the freezer reminded me of Edward. I ate it with a spoon. The spoon reminded me of a fork. I realized that the sun was shining on my ice cream and making it sparkle. MLI

>You know how kids love to pretend play ? My boys (5 & 6y) & girl (8y) no longer act out Optimus, Megatron & Supergirl roles. I was in my room & overheard them acting out Twilight scenes. Faves of theirs are baseball & Edward/James fight scenes. I have an Alice, an Edward & a Jasper living with me!

>a while ago i was caught between two guys. one, my boyfriend. two, the guy that wanted to be with me. they understood their roles. im sorry jacob, edward still wins. MLIT

>Today I made out with my large sybarian husky because he reminded me of Jacob. MLIT

>Today it snowed and since the sun was shining I went outside to play in it. Suddenly I realized that the snow glitters in the sun light, is very white, and is cold to the touch. Snow is like Edward Cullen. I was very excited by this. MLIT

>I had a dream I was having sex with Edward, then the alarm clock went off and when I rolled over I seen my boyfriend next to me and I frowned. Then he looked at me and asked "Why are you staring at me?" I replied "your not edward" then he jumped up and said "Edward? Who's Edward?" -MLIT

>Today, I was watching Iron Man at the movie theaters and my mom and step-dad were with me. A preview for Eclipse came up on the screen and fan girls all screamed when they saw Jacob and Edward, myself included. Then my step-dad Anthony said, “Hmm. I have a doctor with the last name of Cullen.” I about fell out of my seat and immediately thought of 22 ways to clumsily injure self. Enough said. :) MLIT

>Today I found out that some people don't like Twilight. WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO? MLIT

>While I was on the ski lift in NH, I looked down at the powder snow and thought to myself, "the snow sparkles like Edwards skin" I got really excited, and preceded to daydream about Edward all the way to the top of the mountain... MLIT! :)

>Today, I realised my hair is bown jus like bellas! :D MLIT

>Today I went to go see NEW MOON, when Edward took of his shirt the only thing I noticed was that his right nipple seemed bigger than his left nipple.

>I have watched twilight 26 times in a row. MLIT

These people make me realize that my life is pretty good.

That host, the Swedish Pirate Party, made a stand on principle. Now they aim to take things further by running the site from inside the Swedish Parliament. ... The party has announced today that they intend to use part of the Swedish Constitution to further these goals, specifically Parliamentary Immunity from prosecution or lawsuit for things done as part of their political mandate.

Gillette Razor Power, Fusion Gamer, 1-Count Package (Health and Beauty)

The ONLY razor for gamers., March 2, 2009
By T. Johnson "tojo2000" (Santa Clara, CA)

Kudos to Gillette for being the first company to recognize that the stubble created by days of gaming cannot be shaven by any ordinary tool made by modern man. In the 80's, many a man succumbed to "Donkey Kong Beard", a near-fatal illness which would befall only the most frequent denizens of the mall arcade. Now, a much more lethal malady, Halo sideburns, threatens to nip the lives of our most precious resource, our post-pubescent children, in the proverbial bud. Please, protect someone you love. Buy them the Gillette Razor Power, Fusion Gamer today. Nothing else will combat Gamer Stubble.

Works, but tinged with hate and fear, March 2, 2009
By Robert O'Gwynn (Jackson, MS USA)

I tried to buy the Gillette Razor Power, Fusion Gamer(tm) from Best Circuit Shack, but one of the beflippered gnomes who toil there refused to sell it to me.

When I approached the counter to purchase this clearly superior shaving wand, "Doug" began to hammer me with questions. "What's your favorite game? What are the other names of Jenova? How many alts do you have in WoW? Have you ever run a CS server?" Flustered, I could only stammer out thin excuses. "Doug" grew suspicious and hustled me into the back. There he strapped me down to an Ultimate Game Chair(tm) and poured Mountain Dew Game Fuel(tm) into my ears until I confessed I only owned a second-hand Dreamcast.

They kicked me out, taunting me as I left defeated. However, once in the car, I managed to drive at twice the speed of Twitter and bought a Gillette Razor Power, Fusion Gamer(tm) from Target, cleverly bookending it with a bag of Cheetos(tm) and a copy of "Puru Puru Ne Sho Ma Machinehead Samurai Kitty". The unsophisticated checkout girl never thought to ask, and she practically smiled at me.

I went home and shaved. My chin is now hairless.

In summary, the Gillette Razor Power, Fusion Gamer(tm) is a good razor, but it is prejudiced against non-power gamers. 3 stars.

Not as good as the Gamestop Collector's Edition, March 2, 2009
By Sine Nomine "pubwookie" (Mankato, MN United States)
I'm a little disappointed in that the sixth blade that came with the Gamestop Collector's Edition was not available for purchase at least as downloadable content for those who didn't pre-order. My only hope now is to find one used as a trade-in. The blade works so-so when shaving while playing Left4Dead, and the actual blood spurting from your neck when you yank it accidentally during a surprise zombie rush really adds to the realism.

Bonus for those people still playing with CRT screens -- the reflective glass works like a mirror so you can shave without having to use the EyeToy or Live Vision Camera to see yourself, and since the razor runs on batteries, you can even do this during a power outage with sufficient candle light in front of your TV.

The razor to end all razors!, March 2, 2009
By Logan Kelly-Johnston (Fayetteville, NC)

This thing is amazing. Not only am I a gamer, I'm also a hardcore beard-grower. Normal razors just didn't do it for me -- they usually broke, shattering microscopic pieces of razor everywhere.

Not this puppy.

As soon as I took it out of the package, I could actually feel my beard shift away in fear. But there would be no hiding from this blade.

A few quick strokes and my gamer-beard was no more!

Also: if you want to get the achievement for shaving in under a minute, skip the lathering stage -- it's way too time-consuming and you'll never make it. Just go straight for the beard and those 50 points will be yours.

Japanese police have attracted attention for their flashy samurai-style takedown of a knife-wielding maniac who had already stabbed one officer, being photographed in a “swordfight” as they subdued him.
The incident began one morning with police in the historic city of Nara receiving a report of a “quarrel” in which one man had been stabbed.
Police arrived in the area in force, dispatching some 40 officers to the area, and began searching for the suspect.
Soon a sergeant found the suspect, a 31-year-old unemployed man later found to have 3 kitchen and fruit knives in his possession (he can be seen dual-wielding in the photographs), 400m away from his home, and approached him for questioning.
He did not however come willingly, stabbing at one officer’s head and injuring him lightly. Reinforcements arrived rapidly and began to subdue him in uniquely Japanese style, using their batons as bokken:

The man was arrested and charged with interfering with police duties and assaulting a police officer, charges he denies saying “I have absolutely no recollection of the event.”
Whatever else can be said of Japanese police (who carry pistols as standard), they do deserve credit for not lazily gunning the suspect down or tasering him into cardiac arrest as police elsewhere do frequently.

(*update: all concert videos were removed from jewtube by sony)
Videos from the latest Miku concert. Projected on a transparent screen overlay real time, the display is supposedly called flat hologram. Around 3000 tickets were sold at about $50 each. Other than the live concert, there is also the live niconico video, which costs $15 US Dollars, and they had 730 stream slots. So even JUST on Nico Live Stream, they earned $10,950. And the stream was full, which means they could have sold more stream slots had they allowed it.

Today, I babysat 3 year old twins. They have a huge dry erase board hanging inbetween their beds. After they fell asleep I drew a very detailed and large drawing of a penis. When I went to erase it I realized it was in Sharpie. FML

Today, I was at the park when I saw a homeless man sleeping on a bench. I thought it would be funny to throw a small rock at him. He thought it would be funny to pull out his knife and chase me for six blocks. FML

Today, while at the Golden Gate Bridge, I spotted a large group of Asians trying to take a picture. Trying to be a diplomat, I slowly say "You... want me... take picture?" while using hand motions. The man looks at me and says "No thanks asshole, I got it," in plain English. FML

Today, I thought it would be funny to fart in my roommates mouth while he was asleep. I walked over to him and pulled my pyjamas down and let loose. To my surprise it was a very wet one and I accidently took a dump on his face, he woke up and beat me until I was bleeding. FML

Windows God Mode Hack

2010-01-05T16:39:00.000-05:00

windows 7 users, make a new folder somewhere.
rename it to:

GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

wait a few seconds, icon changes, folder now contains a sort of master control panel with every change you can make to windows. this apparently works fine in vista x32, and 7 x32 and x64. google the folder name if you want to make sure before trying.

warning: do not use in vista x64, will cause explorer to crash repeatedly. instead, for vista x64 create a new shortcut and put this:

explorer.exe shell:::{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

as the destination. same effect.

Simple Gifts for Your Geek

2009-11-24T12:27:00.000-05:00

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

Gift recommendations:

Mini Cactus
rumor has it these absorb radiation emitted from monitors n stuff.. plus, ultra-low maintenance of 1 spit per month to keep em alive.. that's right up my.. i mean a lazy geek's alley..!

Multi-Tools
very handy for stopping them from making excuses for fix your stuff..

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

USB Hub
this is probably the most useful little thing there is

Lucky Bamboo Trinket
they'll love you unconditionally forever.. aren't they cuuuute..

Night-vision Goggles
for the novice stalkers

Scarf (or anything to stay warm..)
remember, they are probably pretty clueless when it comes to picking these.. and receiving something like this would make them feel warm and fuzzy in more ways than one!

Something Personal/Homemade
congrats, you now own his soul

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

2009-11-14T15:42:00.000-05:00

[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

2009-11-10T15:47:00.000-05:00

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

2009-08-29T12:37:00.000-04:00

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

2009-08-19T11:41:00.000-04:00

[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.

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
