Funny Videos of Obama & Ronmey Elections 2012

I wonder myself what the people taking the presidential debates seriously have in their heads. They talk only about things that are not the roots of the problems. Yet they seem to be convincing enough for most Americans. I would like them to debate about the Occupy Movement and the crimes and high executives have committed. About the how they plan to resolve the corruption in the white house and the corruption in states' local governments.

The sad reality is that both of the candidates are just meat puppets for corporations and it is not of their interest to talk about what's really wrong with the nation.

I being a "rational anarchist" prefer to enjoy of the comedy that political elections come with. Here are some of the Youtube.com videos that I consider to be top quality entertainment.

Enjoy!

Foxconn has a worker strike they are the iphone 5 makers


iphone-5

Well, everyone saw this coming! The inhumane demands of Apple make people already working on overdrive to go into over-over drive. There is just so much you can torture workers before they fight back.
Hopefully instead of firing all the strikers, they come to an agreement and treat them more humanely, they complain that they don’t even have the holidays off.

Workers also complain about Apple demanding quality on a product that has design flaws and they without the proper training are expected to fix those problems.
The strike has stopped production all day long, hopefully it stays that way for a long time to teach Apple a lesson.


Who is to blame apple iphone fans or Apple?

I think that us as customers should be more intelligent making decisions to buy a product. Every time you purchase an iphone 5 on launch date you are telling Apple that you don’t care they are making workers work themselves to death. It is our duty to let companies know, that what they are doing is wrong and we don’t support it by not buying their products.

Apple as an American Company should practice the values the USA preaches around the world. Apple should not make businesses with companies exploiting their workers the way Foxconn does, it only shows the little they care about the workers, and that’s not a company you want to buy a product from.

According to Microsoft this Metro Application will be easily stored in a USB drive with all your settings and desktop, and are going to work connected with the cloud.

Once I manage to install Visual Studio 2012 I’ll make another post, I think it wait a while since I’m currently working on some projects and I don’t want any compatibility issues. It happened to me before when I switched from 2008 to 2012 version of VS. So I’ll play it safe and I’ll finish my current projects before doing the upgrade.

Nokia Lumia 920 will be release in the last quarter of 2012

Nokia and Microsoft get the big guns out with a state of the the art smart phone. Enters the Lumia 920 scheduled to hit the shelves in the last quarter of 2012. The Nokia Lumia 920 has some really sweet features as Wireless charging (electromagnetic conductivity) Carl Zeiss video 1080p and photo 8.7 mp lens, Windows 8 mobile, and a nice 720p display, everything packed in a very stylish rectangular round corner enclosure case.

Nokia Lumia 920 Windows 8 Mobile Phone

Wireless charging

Nokia Lumia 920 Wireless Charging


I think the term is a little bit miss used, the phone still needs to come in contact with a charging station, the phone is jut put on top of the matt without any kind of plugs or connectors. This is electromagnetic induction, and it still requires some sort of physical connection, it is not like your phone gets charged around a certain radius or range, however, marketing is marketing. Electromagnetic inductivity is not new, but its implementation in the smart phone as a built-in feature is, so it deserves some thumbs up.

Carl Zeiss Lens

This s very popular type of lens among photo fanatics, and its ability to capture full HD 1080 video is nice. The Lumia 920 also promises  nice pictures given that the phone has a built-in features that reduces the blurriness in pictures caused by shaky hands (not me, I’m steady as a rock - no pun intended… well.. yeah a little) and at 8.7MP resolution. It seems like the Lumia 920 comes with all the perks people want in their smart phones.

Atari and Microsoft bring back the Arcades using HTML5 and they want Developers!

Atari is all about the score

Although the original arcade game developing company Atari has integrated to the game engines that are popular now. Back in the day, they were all about simple games and the duty of the players was to hold high scores in their local arcade place. Space invaders, Pac-man, Mrs. Pac man, are just a few of the games that people enjoyed playing in the arcades.


Atari arcade games are back in HTML5 for FREE

Classic video game lovers have kept playing the classic arcade games of Atari mainly via emulators and Flash based remakes. Android apps are now also bringing the fun of playing for the high score back.  However Atari has join forces with Microsoft to bring back their collection if Arcade games in HTML5.

Microsoft Windows 8 upgrades discounts

Microsoft Windows 8 Upgrade Offer 15

Get windows 8 for $15.00

That’s right! If you bought a computer during or post June, Microsoft is offering an especial discount. You can get your upgrade from Windows 7 to windows 8 for only $15.00 (USD). You only need to go here:

Windows Upgrade Offer

You only select your country of residence input some information about your current Windows 7 license and computer model and you’ll get the upgrade in the mail, when windows 8 is finally released this October.

Any upgrade offers for people who bought computers before June 2012?

Behold, the $39.99 especial offer. Not $40.00, but $39.99 Microsoft wants you to save that penny as your lucky coin! That’s right if you bought a system before June 2012 do not panic, you are still getting buttered by Microsoft with a $39.99 upgrade especial. However, Microsoft does not have a dedicated page to pre-order Windows 8 as it does for summer buyers. So people like me will have to wait until the Windows 8 operating system hits the shelves of brick and mortar & cyber brick and mortar stores.

Upgrade procedure for Windows 8

Upgrades to Windows 8 are going to be possible only for Windows 7 users, if you are one of the few tech savvy humans that installed windows 8 candidate release, and you are thinking you will need to input just the product key and download some bug fixing packages, you are mistaken. People with Windows 8 release candidate installed will need to re-install their windows 7 operating system, or if you have Windows 8 as a partition you will still be required to uninstall it.
The upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 should be easy, but until we get some real world testimonies let’s just stay tune. I’ll probably write an article using my own experience as example, keep yourselves posted to this blog.

MICROSOFT SURFACE PRO; IT’S THE WAY TO GO

The time has finally come. A tablet with enough muscle to roar and be heard by a computer guy like me has finally arrived.
SurfaceBlack
The new tablet from Microsoft “Surface Pro” is the only tablet good enough in my opinion to be called a significant computational achievement. I have never been a fan of tablets like the Apple ipad or the Android tablets. To me they seem like huge phones and ipods. Nothing better than what a smart phone can already do. Many will argue that devices such like the ipad and android tablets have make computational marvels such as the Microsoft surface possible, however, I highly disagree with that. First of all I’m talking about the Surface Pro, not the water down version Surface RT, if you want to claim the Surface RT is the same as the ipad, you might have a point. Surface RT has an ARM processor, which in my opinion should not be used for other things other than portable video game consoles, and smart phones. The reason why I don’t like ARM processor in devices such as tablets is because they appear to be functional for checking e-mail and Facebooking (Oh! Come one, you guys know we would start using it as it verb sooner or later..), and tasks along those margins.
However for computer programming, web development, or even image manipulation for which there are many applications, but they don’t come even close to offering all the perks the PC OS version offers.

So what’s so especial about Surface Pro?

Human are hazardous to Earth

I found this in my old files, I wrote this in 2008, I was 19 years old for my English 101 class @ LAVC.


Hazard

Since our race became one of the most adaptable, and smart animals on this planet; Humans have taken the mission to destroy the only home, where they can live. We start killing each other in wars, then we pollute the environment, and because of our fast growing numbers, we have become a pest.
