Memorial Day
Hope everyone enjoyed the 3-day weekend and got their party on, but did not forget what the holiday commemorates. Today's a day of remembrance for our military who have died in service. Quick trivia, did you know Memorial Day was originally observed on May 30th?
Skype for iPhone
Skype 2.0 for iPhone is available, but read the FINE print. Skype is offering "free" Skype-to-Skype calls over 3G until the end of August then it will start charging a monthly fee. WTF is up with that? Hmm, let me think about this for one second.
Okay. Skype directly competes with AT&T voice over the 3G network; did AT&T "persuade" Skype to charge the fees? Think about it. Why else would Skype charge a fee for calls over the AT&T 3G network, but keep calls over WiFi free? Quick, someone dial 411.
Why Bother II
Last October, I published a post titled "Why Bother". It was regarding a web project I was considering, but declined because it was developed using a hybrid of .NET and Classic ASP technologies. It was a NEW project at the time, why use Classic ASP today?
Well, why the follow up post? Because, I was poking around on a popular forum and I came across a post asking for help with a .NET and ASP site. Nah, could it be the same moron? It is the same "guru", haha! Apparently, the site launched but is plagued with issues.
The architect * rolls eyes * is looking for someone to fix the bugs and implement some core features. Man, I am glad that I declined the work. My instinct told me to kick it to the curb and I was right. Anyone want to help? He will pay you $15 per hour. Bruahaha. LAME!
whatchu talkin’ ’bout?
Gary Coleman aka Arnold Jackson on Diff'rent Strokes has passed away. Apparently, he died of a brain hemorrhage after falling at his home. I knew that he was in the hospital, but I did not know it was serious. R.I.P.
Smartphones @ Walmart
Here are two 'quick' tips, just in case you missed them. Walmart is selling the Apple iPhone 3GS for $97 smacks. Talk about a rollback, do these things get any cheaper? Also, Walmart is offering the HTC EVO 4G on pre-sale. Why bother? The phone will be available next week.
Lamebook
It was bound to happen; Zuckerberg and company have changed their privacy policy again. Ha! I knew it was just a matter of time before Zuckerberg backpedaled on his latest cluster fuck idea. Take note, we have not heard the last of the privacy issues.
Zucker (Zuck-er) - noun, one that steals your ideas or screws you in a business deal. Here is another catchy phrase I found on the web, "You're Zucked". Yup, you are ZUCKED! You are the victim of a stolen idea or got backstabbed in a business deal. Nice!
Matching Jeans
Haha! I did a quick search for iPad pants and viola! Below are the matching jeans to go with that iPad t-shirt. Try sitting down with that stuffed in your pants. Apparently, the jeans are just a concept at this time. Pony up fanboys, get these to production ASAP!
iPad Ware
Bruahaha! I do not know WEAR to begin, so I will let the photo below speak for itself. What you do not get it? Get the apple out of your ass and take another look. The below photo is a t-shirt with a BIG ASS pocket for an iPad. * shakes head * Enough said. I am out of here!
Pac-Man Forever
Google's playable Pac-Man logo is gone, but that does not mean you cannot get your Pac-Man on. Also, I wanted to post this for all of the "whiners" (you know exactly who you are) that bitched about Google's logo. Wacka, wacka, wacka.
Ignorant Whiners
Unbelievable! Last night, I published a post about the cool, 'playable' logo on Google's main page. Today, I find posts on Google's Help forum from whiners complaining about the logo. I copied some excerpts for your review. Lame! Be sure to read my comments too, ha!
I had to remove google as my browser homepage. This damn pacman sound has cost me an hour and a half of my time trying to disable it. It is a complete ultra-mega fuck up. Google has lost alot of clients over this. Wassup Jose says - It took you an hour and a half to disable the sound? You are a dumbass! Good riddance.
WTF?Pacman sounds?Really?Whoever thought up this idea should be hung,shot,dragged behind a car,set on fire,then start the real torture. Wassup Jose says - Got your skid marked panties in a bunch over a playable logo? You must live a fucked up life. Loser!
Let's explore the possible scenarios here people.
1. Mega-Giant IT services Google is brought to it's knees by a silly Pac-Man widget, file for bankruptcy, and disappears forever off the face of the earth.
2. Google cuts the sound out the widget, everyone forgets about it in a week, and life goes on.
Any bets on #1 ? Wassup Jose says - How about scenario #3? Fuck heads like you stop breeding and the entire free world rejoices as the imbeciles become extinct. Switch to Bing loser, Google does NOT need you.
