iTunes….Destroyer of Lives?

Its funny yet sad, mainly because someone was stupid enough to install iTunes on one of these listed devices, heince it being there. Sigh.

How To Ruin A Computer In 30 Minutes

How? Why just install…

Sorry, I needed at least one blog post like this :P

AntiVir

Most already know of this program, but for the uninitiated AntiVir is a free personal Anti Virus program developed by Avira, a company based in Germany. For the most part their anti virus software is pretty good, and I started using it over 5 years ago on Windows 98. Some people blast AntiVir saying NOD32 is better, and I guess it is, but I’m not big on the whole yearly payment scheme, thats just BS in my opinion, and I know you could download NOD32 and crack it, but it seems to me that AntiVir is a great way to avoid those hassels. The only problem I’ve had with AntiVir is the annoying advertisements they have pop up when its performing an update, luckily there is a fix for that. I strongly recommend that if you’re looking for a decent free anti virus that you give AntiVir a try.

Logo Edit

So yeah, quick change made to the logo, added the “chibbi” version of myself that was done at ACEN, I wish I could remember the name of the woman that did the art work, but she managed to hammer that out in five minutes. I know, it looks like a horrible cut and paste job, but you know what I really don’t care :P

Online Music Search and Player

This is an interesting site I’ve been playing around with for a while now, its a site where you can search for music and it will give you a list of results plus it will let you add it to the site’s very own music player. It works fairly well and so far I’ve had little to no problems with it. The only issue I have with the site is you cannot save the playlist or the MP3s unless you register with their site, and according to their privacy policy they will hand your account details over to the authorities if requested. So overall, good site, just don’t register.

Linux! Do You Know It?!

So yeah, been seeing some god awful butchering with regards to Linux lately and I would just like to kindly point out that Linux does not consist of just Ubuntu nor does it consist of just Fedora or Red Hat. If you would kindly look it up you would find that there are hundreds of Linux distributions out there, like Gentoo or OpenSuSE. So folks, lets stop pretending Ubuntu/Red Hat/Fedora are the only definitions of Linux please, thanks.

Someones Gonna Pay!

Hmm, you have a point.

AutoMKV

So, as some people may have heard through recent PMs with me over MSN, Skype, YIM, I have been exploring ways to back up my DVD content to my computer network. See, I’m not very good with discs, they usually end up being all scratched up. I went through many applications used for ripping DVDs before I settled on AutoMKV. Why did I choose this? Because, for the amount of space I want my movies to take up, around 700MB, I want the movie to look decent, not perfect, but decent, as well as sound decent. I highly recommend you check it out.
