Microsoft and the Windows Of Your House

Well, after a thoughtful war against piracy of Windows XP it seems that Microsoft has given up and waved the little white flag. Australian IT has reported that Microsoft has dropped the use of the Windows Genuine Advantage program that was installed when Windows updates itself. Everytime a computer would boot-up Windows the program would check to see if the copy they had was a verifed copy that was purchased, not pirated. If it was a pirated copy then the user would get a series of irritating notices. US users had already filed lawsuits against the company for using the programs as "spyware". So, Windows pirates feel assured about putting in that burned install disc you have. You might even be able to get the updates now!!
Just wait to see what they have in store with Windows Vista.....maybe they'll have technology to take over your whole computer and eat your head for pirating their software.

The Randomness Of eBay

I was browsing through the crazy adventure club of the interweb known as eBay the other day and I came accross some really weird auctions that I thought I'd share here.

1940's-1950's Robot
Look at this guy.....It's a really old robot that's probably ust and bunch of hollow sheet metal. The randomness about this robot though is that the starting bid for it is $225,000. Thus far no one has placed a bid on him.



eBay's First ET Alien baby Potato Chip

The title alone says it all. It's a freaking potato chip...POTATO CHIP. It's so ridiculous that I'm surprised no one has bid on it yet. The starting bid id $9.99, and thankfully like I said, no one has bid on it.

Last but not least...



Pecker Coffee Cup

I think this just speaks for it self....No need it bid, it's a Buy It Now at the price of $1.99. Worth the price if you're into that kind of thing.

Wanna Thug It Out Bitch? Let's Thug It Out.

Last week, I gave out a very prestigious and regal award to the RIAA. This week it's time to give some props to the bastard child or the ugly sister of the entertainment industry, the MPAA. The Motion Picture Association Of America has been around a while now and it's made some choice decisions in the way that it does business. Before I get on with the normal award ceremony I think we should take a look at what the MPAA really is.

According to Wikipedia:
The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), originally called the Motion Pictures Producers and Distributors Association, is a non-profit trade association based in the United States which was formed to advance the interests of movie studios. Its members consist of the so-called "big seven" major Hollywood studios: Buena Vista (Walt Disney Company), Sony Pictures, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (part of the Sony/Comcast joint venture), Paramount Pictures (Viacom), 20th Century Fox (News Corp.), DreamWorks, Universal Studios (NBC Universal), and Warner Bros. (Time Warner) The organization produces the well-known voluntary film rating system.

So, the MPAA is just a group of competitive business watching out for each other. That's understandable I suppose. I mean think about what would happen if this organization didn't exist. The Hollywood studios would be in constant competition with each other over little things. They themselves would have people planted in rival businesses trying to leak their blockbuster movies to the masses. Basically doing what the internet "pirates" are doing now, but they'd being doing it with malice.

I really don't have an award to give to them this week since they really haven't done anything recently to earn any kind of awards and that does include the releases of every movie made over the past 3-4 years with the exception of a select few.

Nope, this week I just have a memo. It's a memo from years ago to the MPAA from one of the creators of South Park Matt Stone. I think it basically speaks for itself.

Whois Back?????

That's right kiddies. I'm back once again with another incarnation of TWTBNS. I promise that this will be updated weekly or more than weekly. But, I'd like to start some kind of weekly feature which awards excellence in numerous categories.

This week, I'd like to give props to the RIAA. Yes, the RIAA. The Recording Industry Association of America deserves a huge hug because they (as they've claimed) have "contained" illegal song-sharing. By issuing cease-and-desist orders to such sites as BearShare, Grokster, and WinMX they've successfully shut down the use of those sites for sharing songs. Good for them, if they would've done that 5 or 6 years ago when people were actually using those programs, it might have meant something. But unfortunately for them the song-sharing pirates have moved onto bigger and better programs for downloading illegal music. Now, when they shut down bit-torrent altogether, along with soulseek and limewire, that might actually mean something. Until that happens, I'd like to award the RIAA with our award of the week.

Here's The Deal

Aight, it's been a while. Let me catch you up.

Word Press, the blogging program I was using, just fucked up one day and decided to stop working all together. So, a lot has happened since then. I can't even recall where I left off with this thing so, I start from where shit started going on.

I am totally unemployed. The company I worked for "Media Play" decided it was at its investors best interest to close down altogether. In short me and my Media Play family were screwed. But, that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Since the store closed I've been able to move on to do things I've wanted to do. I started with going back to school full time. It was a long time coming and I don't regret it at all. I've very happy with it and hopefully I'll be able to finish my degree sooner rather than later. I am now just a full time business student.

Also, I taken it upon myself to do some traveling. I went to visit my sis out in Colorado Springs and had a great time. It's unbelievable out there. Mountains are a site to see and I kind of miss waking up every morning and seeing them.

Does this still work
