  • Lin & Cindy

    Bad to be photographer. No pics for you guys since my extraordinary skills at button pressing was required once again, using Lin's Nikon with the nice DX zoom.

    I'm sure it will be posted somewhere..over the rainbow.

  • fat cat on friday with veysi bob and chao. played pool but were gonna do ping pong however all tables were full at the cat. it is pretty popular.

    you can learn a lot about other people by dueling/sparring them. and naturally, about yourself at the same time.

    Just as in martial arts, it extends beyond the physical and there is also a mental discipline which follows hand in hand, body and soul.

    you can see different styles and approaches to the same problem. unique idiosyncracies appear, specific to the individual, other times you can copy it and improve on it and create your own technique.

    The best part is you can follow your own rhythm and flow as the match continues all the while adapting to new circumstances.

  • that die hard was a great movie.

    with his smartass attitude towards the bad guys he gets the job showing once again that brute force will outwit kungfu kicking chicks, hamster-like frenchmen, as well as suave computer hacking evil mastermind.

    the best part is that same mastermind {albeit shaved bald yet still handsomely evil}(tim olyphant [luv that name]) will be playing hitman-logo (Hitman) come this October 12th. high hopes for yet another video game to movie adaptation.

    he will kill. engineered from darkness. protected by divinity. brilliant in his execution. how much more cheesy can it get?

    at least there will be mondo awesome orchestral/electronica background music with religious overtones to accompany this action flick.

    We've caught the UK terrorist.

    He's in the next cubicle right under our noses all this time.

    Once again I am not just a box carrier, I also bring you justice!

     

     

    Mohammed Asha, a neurologist, has been nabbed along with five other doctors in the carbomb plot

     

    Here is a presscopy

     

    If that is no longer available never fear, I prepare for all eventualities:

    And here he is ladies and gents, the sicko himself:

    Those dumb background checks they have when you are hired (and they charge you for it) appears to be worth squat!

  • W10

    Oh w10, why do you tease me so? Damn them. Do they have to make me choose the lousy 4GB or wait for the 8GB C2 OR this W10 that is yet to come in the oh so near future which does everything and more??

    iriver-w10-teaser-3 iriver-w10-teaser-1

    I'll show them who's boss. I'll just have to buy them both.

    Then we'll see who has the last laugh.

    Muahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • New computer parts research phase 2:

    At the heart of any PC I build, it will start from the very soul, the chipset! And everything falls into place around it.

    Roadmap:

    As we approach the 3rd quarter there are a few nice additions Intel has up their sleeves..

    chipset-roadmap

    With the p35 already available on the market, it is a difficult choice to have to wait until the Penryn appears on the scene. However the anticipated price drop is holding back my construction project until at least the end of the month.

    Market segment

    Looking at how it is broken up, the p35 is very tempting with the x38 just on the horizon I need to hold on juuust a little longer.

     

     

    P35 feature setp35blockdiag1

    Can we drool at the ICH9 or what? It is a vast improvement over their previous models. This is the only reason I am switching over to the Intel camp. So deliciouss!

    Estimated completion:

    Case

    And here is my case. Gone are the days of flashing neon blue and silver. I've decided to go sleek black, but not over do the insides to match. The nice black PCB of the Asus will certainly compliment the metallic black finish of the case.

    You can't tell but there are sound dampening silicone (*bouncy*) grommets for the harddrive.  Although this was one of the lousier cases they are peddling to get rid of faster by rebates, it will suit my evil purposes just fine.

    half of xanga doesn't seem to work. not caught up to the new changes. only new items work while old methods fail.
