Work is work fun is fun, if work was fun they would call it fun

You know I hate that quote. I have had plenty of jobs where I had fun while I worked. Obviously that does not include Hellvista (Verizon FiOS support Telvista). Tonight I am writing, usually I have more of a purpose I guess I'm writing because I am bored? Got my Google+ invite and bragging about that? I am not really sure. Yeah I think I'm already done, don't really have anything to write about tonight, so I'll just end on a quote

"In my dream, the world had suffered a terrible disaster. A black haze shut out the sun, and the darkness was alive with the moans and screams of wounded people. Suddenly, a small light glowed. A candle flickered into life, symbol of hope for millions. A single tiny candle, shining in the ugly dark. I laughed and blew it out." - The Joker

Drowning in connectivity

yes that was a title for one of the podcasts I listen to on the TWiT network. Its a good statement thought and I am probably guilty of this, I Google everything, I validate people statements way to often now. To some they don't appreciate it, well thats who I am. I should be getting a Nexus One finally I have been wanting it long enough, my job is going great... sadly still a contractor, basically means that I am more expendable than anyone who actually works at Gamestop. I really don't know the point of this post, but does there really need to be one sometimes its just good to write, even thought I can't write for shit right now, I guess my writing skills go away when you don't use them... well don't use them correctly because with facebook and twitter updates, you don't write for a professional audience you are writing for a much more personal one.... well I own stealthgyro.com ... would be nice if I owned my actual name, but for the most part thats all taken. yes it just takes you here for now at least I don't know if I plan to change that in the future probably not. I am still thinking of doing a website, but so far thats all it is "thinking". alright this post has become pointless for the most part, I was writing a self wish list, and was like hey I'll write a quick blog post.

Ridiculous wishlist (not including whats on steam or possibly amazon)

Nexus One or new android phone $529.99.... still up in the air on this right now

should be able to get one used (great condition with accessories) $400

MGS: Peace walker PSP Big Boss edition bundle - $199.99 tax - 216.49

^that version is a gamestop exclusive

Zune 120gb (30gb I am deleting music now) I've seen some places have it for around $100, but most places have it at ~$200

super street fighter 4 on ps3 and xbox360 - I'm a competitor and I've got nemesis(already plural?) on both consoles.

Ipad 16gb wifi $499.99 if tax 541.24 ... I don't want an iPhone however I like to play a lot of the games, and very interesting apps out there.

of course new computer at this point in time I would like an i7930 with 480GTX minimum 4gb ddr3 ram $1500-$3000

-or-

gtx 480

q8400

^ modernize my computer more.... also just might do something else I want an i7 machine, but thats 1500 minimum this is half that, and probably not that much less of performance

would also like an android tablet... the Tegra2 one $? probably less than $500

almost want a win7 tablet as well.... probably not though,.

I kinda want Win phone 7, I know my fiancée will be getting one, so perhaps I will just play with hers

laptop briefcase... remember that blog post earlier about cheap laptop, well I surprisingly use it a lot.

woot, nexus one continued

well nexus one should be officially out, I don't have the money for it nor money for much else, barely have enough for bills so um yea :-/... however w2's and tax returns should be on the way in the next couple of months and I love that efile...

Well I had a job interview at Woot! today and it looks good so far, there are a few other people looking into the position as well. Well next Wednesday the 13th should be the answer that I am looking for :-) everyone cross their fingers... I know I am ...

Nexus One

I am so excited... and its all based on the rumormill, but so many blogs and news sites advertising some of the information from the rumormill almost adds confirmation. So far I believe all the leaked specs are correct. Multiple sites (probably still only 1 source) say release of January 5th, and quite possibly $199 or $100 for "old" Google users hopefully I qualify, which brings me to another point that Nexus One might be invite only at first which also should apply to "old" google users which I have had Gmail since 6/21/2004.. only a coupe of months after its release. So Google if you are reading this please let me be worthy enough for the invite to purchase Nexus One. Don't get me wrong my G1 is good, but its not perfect. Also I plan to start developing on Android, if anyone has any tips let me know I will also be on XDA for help and etc.

Work going good oh and Wave! :-)

I am still in training for my new job.. yea its a lot of training and the final test will be Monday! pass that and then I start answering phones then in a week I'm working a new crappy Schedule... which is cool I will be able to get it changed in 90 days and once I show I am excellent I should have first bid. Anyways I got my google Wave invite today! woot, looks like quite a few went out today, couple of my contacts showed up on there as well, and well I had to invite a couple people next to me.. because I was checking my e-mail at work... yea bad idea. and wave wow... Its a chat room with missing features, I really am not sure what to do with it.... its really cool, I think it will almost be better as a website builder with a friend than anything else, maybe when I get a lot of people in a wave the purpose will change for me. short terrible grammar post today.

the interwebz mov3s to f@stasloidcvoAIQJ32REaweF

Wow just wow I am going insane I have had a project with my computer with the past couple of days. Guess what it all started with purchasing that junk hard drive. Well I did return it and picked up just a terabyte for about 40 bucks less and its working out perfectly. I needed the space for Quakecon coming up and of course I just wanted it anyways.. so I backed up all my data on it except one drive that I don't format because it clicks already need to keep it safe. I know this post already is not a polished one I will get to that in a minute. So I started my hackintosh project and of course I wanted to run linux as well with windows XP and vista64 or win7RC64, but I was having serious problems getting them to run all under one bootloader without changing what hard drive was booting first yada yada. So after some research I have found Vista has improved (before I used it for DX10 testing and Shadowrun/halo2) compatibility has gotten better even though 64bit is almost the larger issue for that rather than vista itself, but I want it to show all 4 gigs of my ram is that so bad? Don't get me wrong I love XP and in fact I think I love 7 above both of them, however xp doesn't do about 4 things I want it too. win7x64 doesn't have true ambx support yet, reports of it working but I can't get my setup working. I have my premium Phillips Ambx kit and I'm going to use it!! so long story short I finaly got chameleon (hackintosh bootloader) to do everything and settling on one copy of windows so my triple boot setup is Ubuntu, Hackintosh OSXLeopard(Aiktos it does update), and Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit. So I wasn't doing a lot of tweeting, facebook, blogging, or checking up on some of my favorite blogs with google reader, such as kotaku, gizmodo, engadget, and lifehacker. OH MY GOD the internet moves fast, and of course I know this, but holy shit I try to at least glance at every story if not read the whole thing and watch the most likely video link that comes with it. It was so overwhelming that I actually felt angry trying to read it all. So I said fuck it and told google reader to say it read it all, and I did not backlog any tweets either trying to catch up. This is why this post is unpolished and the english is atrocious I am in this angry mode now and just need to vent, at the same time its why I'm blogging right now instead of trying to catch up with the internet, So I'm going to listen to Twit and its summary of the internet and use that as a filter right now, because otherwise I might go insane

once I calm down I'll do another post probably about my hackintosh build or something, a little more readable oh if I read this post later in life there is a good chance I will delete it lol...

I am having an out of money experience

I have a shirt that says just that, and it is more true now than ever, of course if I could take back the 10-15 dollars that shirt cost right now I think I would do it. I'll post a pic of me in that shirt on picasa probably soon. Today I go to work do pretty simple tasks have chit chat with the customers clean the store make it look pretty, and that's about it except when no one was in the store I made sure to turn on my Zune and listen to some TWIT podcast, great show if you never listen to it one of Leo Laporte's better podcasts. He sits around with generally eduacated guests who know what they are talking about, with recent tech news, I'm a geek so I find it facinating. Doing that today, made the day go by so much faster, in fact I would say I had a good day at work, also thanks to no grumpy customers. I leave work today to see my wonderful gas tank pointing at the letter 'E' so I decide to pull into the gas station, but before I start pumping I pull out my G1 (kinda bragging) and check out my bank account (no longer bragging) I've got about 24 bucks in there OUCH! now I did return something I bought off of Newegg so I am waiting for an RMA to go through so that should help a little. That was an impulse thing I wanted for my phone, which I will get later, but right now cash is more important. I put 20 dollars in so basically I've got 4 bucks till Friday... oh yea rent is due Saturday guess what there goes my paycheck. I might have a little change, but I gotta save that for other bill throughout the month so basically my entertainment is going to be my new phone and the Internet... I think I can handle, but I think I should stop reading tech and gadget news otherwise my want mode will kick in. If you know any quick way to make some money, or provide me with business to repair/mod PCs/Consoles $50 labor generally which is negotiable based on what exactly the problems are, so basically could be more or less, because of parts etc. details can be provided. Don't have a cool closing statement yet, but I'll work on it.

Listening to:

Gaming: Kitten Cannon (yes the flash game, but its also on my G1)

Watching: Pre-Streets from Blockbuster (work there, I get DVD releases early)

Tinkering: Cloud computing with google.
