Blog Revival. And, Windows 7

Wow, First Blog post in ages for me, and first blog post in a month for everyone else. And i thought everyone was way more organized than me!

Anyway, onto the matter at hand, WINDOWS 7. I cannot tell you how much i love this operating system. This comes from a person who has used a OSX for a suitable amount of time, XP (how i learnt all i knew about computers), Ubuntu (Fun as hell to work with, and one of my favorites) and Vista(meh, its okay, not my favorite, but ok).

Windows 7, is most defiantly what Vista wanted to grow up to be, its like Vistas athlete super brainy brother. Yes, the task bar is still in the Vista style. Yes, Windows Aero is still here. But the Specs are now significantly lower, i.e any machine that struggles XP should take 7 and gobble it up in no time at all. Also, you can attain a whole four months of trial period out of your 7 distribution by using a rearm command:

(Any of these 4);

sysprep /generalize

slmgr.vbs –rearm

rundll32 slc.dll,SLReArmWindows

slmgr /rearm

Micro$oft know about these commands, and are completely happy with you using them. On a level of higher mischievousness, you can remove the activation altogether by using a simple tool called RemoveWAT (google it).

Assasains Creed 2. Looks pretty Goddarn Epic to me.

In relation too Ollie’s, last post, take a good gander at this. Looks Immense.

*note to james* keep this as a post if you really want, but is the sort of thing you post as a comment. Just takes up a post slot on the homepage ’tis all.

School. Why?

School. Anyone who can read this has most certainly been there. Its a place of learning, and within its walls, the smartest thrive under their thirst for knowledge, and some people suck. But, my question is, Why do the exam boards set work in the curriculum that does not actually benefit your life in the future? Sure we all know that getting good grade means that you can achieve greater and better things than someone that got a D-, but some of the things set are pure nonsense.

What i am really trying too earmark here is the fact that School is now teaching us how too take a certain exam, and within this paper is things that we will never ever use again in our lives unless we take a highly specified job in that area. Teachers are teaching us things that are irrelevant too our actual future, but if you know this hefty chunk of irrelevance, you will be picked in preference over someone who didn’t know how too find the volume of a square based pyramid, even though the job is working in administration.This I find is rather illogical. But i am absolutely stumped on ideas of how too do it better.

Also, we seem too have world views forced at us from every single direction possible. Our parents may have strong views a certain way, say they are strict catholics, the view of God will be forced upon you no ends. Our science teachers have world views of gases exploding too create the world, and the R.E department seems too think that a wizard did it. Whatever you theory on this, there should be a subject pulled into place that practices nothing but free thinking, and maybe shatters the bounds of religion or science and helps people become one with their own mind and freedom too think. There is no wrong answer for world view, and as a person, everyone should reserve the right too their own, unbiased of others opinion.

Soriorty Row. Awful Horror Film. In a Bad way.

May contain spoilers. Actually, scrap that, Will defiantly contain spoilers, so you don’t have to waste your money.

The film starts with a party, woman walking around in bikini’s, etc.etc. Probably the best part of the film, (the one exception being when the film actually ends). Then there is a whole “Shocking plot twist” that i sat through with little less than a feasible  emotion across my thoroughly bored face. Whilst my friends were practically messing their pants with fear and anticipation, i felt that i had wasted £3.50 or whatever i spent on my ticket.

If you want a good laugh, by all means watch this film. The plot is absolutely awful. It’s like “The Final Destination” feeding you gore and funny deaths, but with a straight face, taking all the fun out of the film. And a tyre tool which seems too be the recurring tool of death, other than flare guns, bottles lodged in necks etc.

Awful film, that instead of actually reinventing the genre and using intuitive ideas too make the film more exciting, it has stuck too the same principle of “have something jump out after a tediously lengthy build up” trick that may have been scary 30 years ago.

A few horrible stereotypical jumpy scenes later, and there is a weird bad guy = good guy but actually = bad guy thing that just tops off the movie as a flop. Then finally and inconveniently the emergancy services show up, just AFTER they killed the bad guy. This is one of the many logical flaws in the film. Well i know a place inside of me died when i watched this film, maybe the same will happen too you. If you were atractted too the film by the trailer with half naked woman in it, you will be disappointed.

Also, sorry for the fairly shot review, i think my mind decided not too remember too much of this.

Nintendo, What happend to thee?

Where the hell have Nintendo gone? Their E3 releases were shocking.  A little cube which makes waggle commands more responsive (that should have been included with the console on release) and a few games?? Pitiful. I cannot even compare it too Microsofts E3, it was that bad. Nintendo need to come up with some more original ideas to rocket their profits.

Ahhh… Freedom.

Feels good to have my own ranting space.

Ok. To kick start myself, i am going to blog about the new Modern Warfare 2 Prestige Edition.

This is one weird idea. Comes with a Metal case for the game, all well and dandy, average limited edition. Also comes with the original Call of Duty. Awesome, Bonus. And then…. Fully functional Night Vision  goggles. Yep. Night Vision goggles. Not sure if this guy is trolling, (he better be), but I am sure little American children are going to be going blind after wearing them in broad daylight. I can see the lawsuits now.
