So, I've brought my iPod to the Applestore three times recently. Not for a hardware or software issue either. It's because of a bug with the security software I use. And Windows has had the joy of crashing five times on me this past week. Screw XP, it used to be good, the update killed it, I need OS X now. ><

Downloaded a demo today. To be honest, I don't get what's so great. That's not to say it's a bad game. I mean sure, it's a pretty good game. But I don't get where it gets so much praise from. There are plenty of games I'd prefer over it. But hey, I just played the single-player level the demo included so far. Will update this entry once I try out the online.

Found this browsing the interwebs, though I'd share it since it makes some sense; Not completely sure it's true, but it does give an explanation other than "their getting complacent".

Currently typing this from my Ubuntu partition. I just got my first ever BSOD in XP. Ever. On any XP computer that was clean of viruses, spyware and the lot, or met and passed the system requirements. Something about the update a few days ago has killed XP, my favourite shelter until I get the MacBook. This has never happened to me before in XP, and I assumed it never would as it hasn't for years. Worst of all, it happened while running normal tasks(iTunes, Firefox and TunderBird). Needless to say, I'm ticked. DEATH TO MICROSOFT, WINDOWS, AND DOS, AND LONG-LIVE UNIX, PRETTY COMPUTERS WITH FRUIT ON THEM AND BLACK TURTLENECK SWEATERS!

Are you out of your bloody mind?

First, credit to Wrack for linking me the site I got the thing in quotes from. Anyway, last year I got a summer job at a tech support firm that hired at 13(they were a family-owned, non-unionized local business, and did stuff like that) and, after passing a test, got a job answering phones and helping step-by-step OS switchers and people with general problems. Unfortunately when I went back for that job this year, it turned out they got bought out by BestBuy for competing with Geeksquad. It was calls like these that made the job so much more fun than just helping people with computers; Edit; I found this one, which I think much more funny.(Fortunately I never got anyone this idiotic) Huge thanks for linking me that site Wrack. =3

Alright, so last night Firefox didn't work with Java. So I reinstalled it. When looking at the install file I found my old Firefox 2.0 install file. I figured I'd try it. At first it looked kinda retro, and slowly began getting used to it. It really was a great browser, and, in some ways, was ahead of it's time. Then I switched back to 3.0. It turns out they really did add a lot of stuff I didn't appreciate when I accidentally updated to 3.0 originally. In short, if your using 2.0, switch to 3.0. It's better. believe it or not. Also, I got a memory card for the PS2, so I now has FFXII. It's epic, to put it in a word.

Alright, so I recently got Guns N' Roses debut album, Appetite For Destruction. First, before I continue, I don't recommend it to minors; it's not extremely profane like some modern albums, but it isn't exactly "clean", though again, I think a word is a word, but that's all to opinion. Anyway, one of my favourite songs off it is Nightrain. As such it's been heard on my computer, and both iPods. I noticed something though; the solid-state iPod Touch seemed to have the lowest-sound quality. With all three at the same volume, with the rock preset and through the same headphones, sound quality seemed to be best on the full-power computer I mainly use, then the lower-power hard drive and components in my iPod Video, and in last the solid-state modern MP3 player/minimac that is an iPod Touch. Why is this I wonder? The iPod Touch is the most modern, and except for the processor, compared to the other two. Why is it the more advanced components did worse? My theory is this; due to the different storage methods and and smaller size, the file is more compressed, and therefore lower-quality. This is really a shame, because I have great faith in solid-state flash drives. Message to the makers of these; Myaaa, make a better SSD or we will not buy for the sake of quality! >=3

So, I found my old 30GB iPod Video today. Thought it was dead, but it turns out the battery was just literally chargeless. It's been charging a few hours, and now I have an iPod that fits all my regular stuff and the junk I never look at, and can act as a decoy for places where my iPod Touch could get stolen. =D ...I really need an iBook, MacBook or some sort of iLaptop though, Windows has been having a blast messing with me lately...
