Facebook’s impression of me?

A wannabe-mafioso with piles.

Move to Windows 7

From the “Holy Shit! Are You Fucking Kidding Me‽” department: Windows XP users will have to format their hard drives and do clean installs to upgrade to Windows 7 — there is no “upgrade” option that keeps their installed programs intact.

Firefox: Most Popular Search Engine…

I stare at this caption, and I can’t even begin to work out what they THOUGHT they were saying. Every time you think you work it out, you realise it’s still wrong.

WTF‽

WTF‽

(You might need to turn up your volume on this one)

Another test video. As I was playing around with my Zi6, filming the dogs, a sudden shout from the bedroom distracts Clyde.

A pretty accurate representation of the Bill Gates/Jerry Seinfeld Microsoft ads.

It's a Different Set of Rules - The Daily WTF

Forwarded to me by a co-worker after a grammar argument. “The comma is supposed to go inside the quotes.”

UPS: Tracking Information

Nice work UPS. The package Amazon overnighted me last night? Has been delivered in 2006. Now that is speedy delivery.

Woman With Tattoo From Homemade Gun Got Sick

From the “News article opening lines which blow your mind” file: “Some women in Springfield, MO are regretting their decision last week to get a tattoo from a door-to-door tattoo salesman.”

NVidia RAID

NVidia RAID

Rebuilding a RAID-1 array with a new disk. "Data from one of the selected disks can be preserved in a new array. If one of the disks in the new array has data you wish to save, select it now."

Uhm.. yeah... any chance you could give me *ANY* kind of distinction between the two drives? Perhaps highlight the one that has my fucking data on it?

Baby Einstein - BuzzFeed

Gathering together posts equally confused by the bizarre cameo during last night’s State of the Union by the creator of those bullshit Baby Einstein DVDs. “Bush points out the American Dream in the audience and apparently, the American Dream looks like a less pointy Ann Coulter.”

I’ve no freaking idea what this website is, but by god, the jingle is catchy.

Qloud

Some kind of weird audioscrobbler-type thing, that allows you to deal with Tags inside iTunes. Or something. Their site is incomprehensibly flashy and slidey and swoopy and I only got five hours sleep last night.

RSSBus

These guys were presenting at ETech. It has to be said, I’m still thoroughly flummoxed as to what problem they think their technology is solving. Seems like a horrible bandwagon-jumping to me.
