Dear Complainers to the BBC

You stupid humourless idiots,
Life is too short for your lameness
I think the pus of your festering pettiness,
Oozes from the fact you're not famous.

(In refrence to compaints against the BBC, Russel Brand and Jonathan Ross complaints)

Google Chrome's Bookmarks

I have been using the fantatsic Google Chrome brosr since it came out, if you havent tried it you really should give it a whirl (Download Chrome for Windows).


One thing that was a bit weird about itb was the Bookmarks handling but now a month or so in, I have to say, I love it.

It is kind of a tool bar/menu bar hybrid that can be set up in many different ways. The reult is that when I started off It as awkward to make sense of comapred to say, the Firefox or Ie systems. But as it tweeks and changes with one's use  entire  a sub-interface evolves for you.

I would like it to have integration with my cloudbased Google bookmarks, that will surley be in soon.

Try My New Ultra Mobile Game! For Free!



Over the years I have designed a number of computer games. MondoPondo is a multiplayer quiz game with adult Truths and Dares. In fact, MondoPondo Wilde was the World's first computer game for Lesbians. And thats a fact. Its now defunct but Lesbians are going strong. Though not at my parties. Alas.


I designed the vastly underplayed 22Kung (from the blurb:"Use your Monks and all your cunning to capture your opponent's Jade Fountain and become the master in a game that combines the tactical planning of Chess, the simplicity and gameplay of GO and the drama of Kung Fu.") which by now I was hoping to have been bigger than Sudoku and Online Poker combined. I think maybe the graphics could have been a bit better. 


And there there was Factland, which I designed a while ago, bought the domian, specced the game and then, stupidly, didn't repurchase. Lesson learnt.


But now I have a new multiplayer game that you can try for free. For reasons of public decency it is only playable by pairs of Male Humans where at least one of the pair is concenting to play. The game, that is causing a stirr, in at least the streets of my mind, is Eyebrow Tennis.

Eyebrow Tennis

How to Play: 

As you walk down the street and a man approaches you you must raise your eyebrows. This is your serve and the completion of the game. You must now decide who was victorious:

Winning and Lossing
  • If the man replies with a Brow Raise, then you are both winners.
  • If the man doesnt raise his eyebrows, then you are both losers.
  • If, as you approach, he raises his Brows before you, then he has won.


You will find, as you get better, that there is much skill, subtlety and cunning in the game's tactics. 

Not only is this a great new game for all the men of the world to play so that there may be unity and a lasting peace, thus stopping, once and for all, masculine aggression's cancerous hurricane upon humanity and the planet; it is also a Paradox of soritian import.



  

War of Guns, A Great Little Flash Game

Money ad Debt

My freind Luke pointed this out to me, its a great video where the content/information/enlightenment is inversly proportionarte to the production valued.



Palindrome

A palindrome is Never odd or even. 

This is a fact that's weird belivin'

Because when you read and both ways see,

That final period frames an anisotropy.

The Money Myth Exploded, a great short read.

Watching Zeigtest Adendum got me interested in Banking again. I used to have a skepticism about banks after watching some youtubes on the Federal reserve. But then I listened to a Skeptoid podcast that put over a very convincining arguement for Banks: If it wasnt for banks people couldnt borrow money to do things they cant afford to do at a given time. 


I dont think that argument carries much weight now (eg Zopa ) and even if it did, banks are a scam, as this almost kids story really well explains. The prose isnt great but the clarity is fantastic.




The Google Homepage and Google Chrome and our Privacy


If you haven't tried Chrome yet from Google, and you use Windows, you should give it a go. I have been using it since its launch - I was an avid Firefox 3 user, but Chrome is just simpler, faster, safer, smoother and, well... better. Its quite a revolution in browser architechonics, baby.



The Google Homepage

And once you have Chrome installed you might like to see how its new Java Script engine handles your own perosnalised Google Homepage. This homepage comes over as a super-useful set of web  applciations and content sources that you can chop and change to your heart's content. Replete with huge amounts of integration into the other websites, it is, prima faciae, the perfect portable preferenceable personal portal to "The Cloud". However, this is not the case.

The Google Homepage is in fact a Hegemonic Honeytrap designed to analise and scrutinise and prioritrise (by their priorities, not yours) your life as a digital prisoner in the guilded penitentiary of the aforementioned Hegemony. Your entire psychometic and cognitive patternality  is constantly being syphoned off your online life, via your Google Homepage and past, through stegonoinformatic internet tunnels into The Dark Cloud (Yes, the same "Dark Cloud" as used by the CIA, ASDA, and Interpol)





If your kewl with that, it;s well worth using. 

Oh, and it works really well on the Iphone/Ipod Touch so that even when you're out and about everything about YOU is recorded in various senses, for YOUR protection from purchsing the wrong products.

I'm actually pleased that I am so DEEPLY suckered into this fuctional funfare of faux favors because I know that at some point in the future The Google will be able to "help" me. They haven't yet, and let's hope they don't (Or is it do?)  but soon they will realise the value TO US of the data they clandestinely have been sucking FROM US for over the last three decaces and they will realise they will be able to SELL US this information that they BORROWED WITHOUT TELLING US and, moreover,  we will be happy with this.


I really don;t mind running headlong into a total surveillance society so long as:
  1. Never in our homes.
  2. Never in our chats to questional "Dominatrixes" on an Internet Relay Chatroom called "The Castle of Sexual Disfunctionalism" in about June 1994. It was a Sunday morning.
  3. Encryption is never illegal.
  4. No bugging without a Judge's permission.

But, before The Google totally gets into massaging the flows of humanity and intelligence I wish they would allow you to add a Gadet get to your homepage for reading emails from an alternative Gmail account. Thanks in advance.

Salted Review : The Advent 4211 XP Netbook


Ten days ago I got one of the new Advent 4211 netbooks from PC World. Its a great little bit of tech, one that may have got me out of my ipod touch induced tech review writers block. Ive had a fair bit of tech through my hands since my Toch arrived, but none of it inspired.


But this tiny laptop is small and nifty. Its not tiny, I used to one of those tiny Sony Vaios that came out 6 years ago, and now, that would not be tiny. I would say it about half the size of the bible, or, If your a devil worshipper, a quarter necronomicaon. As you can see from this pic:





It runs windows XP, has a new spritely and mobile Atom processor, a gig of ram and 80 gigs of hard drive. For most people, it will do everything you ever want to do on a laptop.

I think it would be great for kids too, as if it gets crushed, lost its not too much of a disaster. Or if the cat does what my cats do, prompting the purchase of this very laptop, and thus this very review.

As a media player the screen is great, we have been watching it in bed lots... but the speakers are pretty crummy.

Battery life is good - im getting a couple of hours with WiFi on.


Conclusion

I had a look at a lot of these new format laptops both online and in PC World and online again, and The Advent 4211 is, IMHO, the best of the bunch so far and great great value at £269.


My laptop is dead:(

My Cat Has Just Pithed On My Laptop

I have a pretty new laptop.
I just caught my cat Pissing on it.
Squatting there smack back on the QWERT side of the keyboard.
Dont Panic!
No, DO panic, what was I supposed to do?
I tried a little shake, but it was soon clear that the cats piss was all the way through.
Disaster!
I thought of options...
I unplugged it and took the battery out.
It was leeking this stinky, watery syrup. Horrible.
In the end, based just on the fact that I had washed a cheap keyboard and once dry that worked. I dismantled this tabula pissa.
I took out the hard drive and the case and took it to the bathtub
And showered it fully: the reasoning being that it would be better wet,
Than rancid with cat piss.
Will it live?
We shall see....

Disney

I have been to Disney 3 times in 2 days.

The third time was because, at pain of sanity, I had to bail and come back in the darkness. But there is a darkness, to me, even when the sun is high and bright in the Florida sky.

When I came to pick up my family at 11 last night, my daughters were so happy and excited and jumping and smiling as they recounted the highlights in the neon shadow of Space Mountain.

Disney is the Jerusalem of Consumption.

It is the Circus Maximus for we drones of the Western Hegemony.

The rides are fantastic. But those rides are instants in aeons of purchase and queue. Retinal jolts of excitement in a system designed to take as much of your money and time and focus as possible, whilst still making you feel that you are feeling happy.

Anyway, enough of my cynical hate crimes against Das Mouse und Der Kabal, let's see what the little folk think:





The horror...

The horror......

Jesus Did Not Exist

America is drowned in Jesus,
Like the seabed in the sea,
The facts of this immersion,
Come not from history.

The facts of this perversion,
Are the lies of centuries.

There is zero evidence for Jesus,
Not a jot, a dot, an iota.
And the weight of faith versus fact,
Infinity exceeds it's dismal quota.

Not one contemporary writing,
Mentions Christ, Son of Man,
The gospels manly fabricated,
By dishonest political hand.

Jesus did not exist,
The facts cannot be missed,
This is the epiphany of truth;
The flock are Judas kissed.

Summery Road Trip Summary

The road trip part of the holiday is now over.
We drove the eastern seaboard.
Highlights were:

  • New York: After London, she is still in the top two world cities. Bigger than London but Beefeaters trump Skyskrapers every time. (Including Trump Towers)
  • Amish People: I saw these in a buggy, they seemed historical. I wanted to give them my Ipod touch but it might implode their reality
  • Washington: Great city architecturally. Poetically, Mordor.
  • Walking With Dinosaurs Live: Impressive, but they are just models, kids.
  • Richmond: Pleasant, avoid Vietnamese Food due to it being the worst food inside the continent.
  • Colonial Williamsburg: Hot and fairly interesting.
  • Jamestown: Hot and pretty amazing.
  • Charleston: Very pretty. The Slave Market was for buying and selling slaves, not for where plantation owners send their "staff" to get sprouts etc
  • Savannah: Wonderful place in so many senses. I had the best oysters and Bloody Mary I have ever had, all in the same sitting. Bonanza!
  • St Augustine: I dreamed I saw St Augustine... and it wasn't a dream, but real. Nice place, worth visiting, probably not worth selling up and shipping out to.



We are now in Florida.

Did you know that Columbus never set foot on the continent, that was another Spaniard called Juan Ponce de Leyon.

The Statute Of Liberty Bell Ends

We have just got back from the worst statue based experience of my life. Imagine a prison camp full of Nazi Jobsworths, hours, literally, of queues and all for something that looks much more impressive from a distance. Up close she is a squat and unremarkable form, not twice as tall as the Gateshead Angel.

Avoid like the plaque.

Mind you, we are still having a great time!

An Amercian Road Trip (With Disney/Waterparks)

I'm currently in the Big Apple, the American one, not Truro. The last time I was here I was 19, gosh that seems so long ago....

Its a family trip, with extended family, eight in all.

New York is great. Some observations so far.

  • I'm shocked by the racial segregation here. There are the whites, who are served by the non-whites. Its economic/employment apartheid.
  • Latina's have very big tatoos and are all very sexy. Everyone of them.
  • It is possible to get a Coffee that has more calories than a burger.
  • NYC is much bigger on foot than on the map.
  • Jaywalking is illegal, but its fine to do.
  • NYPD should go to the Gym more.
Start spreading the news, I'm leaving tomorrow......

If I set a Google Alert for "google" will it crash the internet?

Emergence


Emergence is the only magic.
New kinds of things just by degree.
Something for nothing,
New features for free.
