BSOD’s Everywhere !!!

Maybe Techland is really trying to tell us something…

BSOD Central…

Every time I see a BSOD, I will be reminded of Dead Island…

MOAR !!!

It is apparent that Techland is trying to say something …

MOAR Fail…

BSOD’s are all over the place in Banoi…

Even During The Zombie Apocalypse…

As if the people in Banoi didn’t have enough to worry about already with all the infected and walkers hunting them down… They have to contend with BSOD’s as well …

The Last 11 Days…

Its been a really eventful 11 days since I last updated my blog… Here is a recap of what happened in that period…

1 – I picked up Halo: Reach;

2 – I went for my first ICC 10 Man; and

3 – My WOW account was compromised and locked down (twice in the span of 11 days)…

I wonder what will happen next week??? Dead Rising 2 perhaps???

There Is An App For That (Yes Really)…

I have been getting quite a number of dm’s on Twitter and a number of im’s asking about how I get by without my weekly dose of anime since I switched all my computers (be it desktops or portables) to offerings by Apple…

My response???

“I haven’t missed any!!!”

You see in Windows, one can watch a 720p soft-subbed MKV video file through the use of video or audio codecs that are readily available for download and easily integrated into a media player of choice…

As most Windows fanboys mostly have tunnel vision, they do not realise that the same codecs are available for OSX…

One such solution is Perian…

It will play anything that you throw at it with no fuss and integrates with the default Quicktime player (no need to download or Media Player Classic)…

If downloading a different player (ala Windows) is your thing, you can consider MPlayer OSX Extended instead…

So remember fanboys, the internet is a dangerous place, especially when you make assumptions…

If you need to ask a question but can’t bring yourself to ask someone, try google…

OMG!!! Even The World Of Warcraft Is Not Spared…

I was in a battlegrounds game earlier when everyone in the team was discussing the upcoming Cataclysm expansion pack… After 20 or so seconds of friendly banter and “OMG!!! The new features are gonna be so cool”, RACISM reared its ugly head in the form of the following statement:

Racist Twat : Looks like all of them black dudes are gonna switch over to the alliance once the new expansion ships…

<no response from anyone – 3 sec pause>

Racist Twat : Because Worgen is Negrow backwards… 

(Note: I am not going to divulge the details / player ID of the offending RACIST PIG as I have already logged a ticket and I will let Blizzard deal with it)

I have to admit that remark caught me off guard and it just goes to show how ugly RACISM is…

Is this the sign of the times, that we so proudly speak of??? Is this the progress that we have strived to achieve through improvements in the education system???

If it is, the world is definitely going down the toilet…

We Can Dream…

LOL…

Scammer Alert!!!

Before you fall for a scam like this, please refer to this, to learn how to differentiate a message from a real Blizzard GM…

The Dead Ride Again???

Seriously…

Bruised Pride???

Super Street Fighter IV (“SSFIV”) is a very exciting game to play online due to the diversity of the players you meet and their differing skill levels…  Through melting pot of ranked matches, one can learn new techniques and improve upon current skill sets and this, I feel will lead to a better SSFIV experience… 

Once in a while, you’ll bump into someone you know and if you’re really really lucky, you might even meet someone famous!!!

Imagine my delight when not only did I got matched up with an ex-WCG player but it was someone that I have not seen and spoken to in years (due to his hectic working schedule and the fact that he is more than 500 km’s south)…

My my my what an experience it was!!! We were talking and laughing over the headset and I was marveling his massive-near-five digit BP when he suddenly went ape-shit on me…

You see, I have always thought that “imitation was the sincerest form of flattery” and I have watched many replays of Mr. ex-WCG player on the SSFIV replay channel ever since I got the game… Therefore, when little ole me with 420 BP miraculously won the match in question with a medley of focus attacks and throws he saw that an insult more than a homage… And what did he do??? He even gave me bad feedback about it!!! How did I know??? Well I even got a voice message from him telling me about the bad feedback he left…

I mean like WTF right???

After going through that, I am of the opinion that SSFIV is a game better played with strangers than your friends, who knows who else will go through the same thing eh???

What???

Quests to turn in = Check!

Waypoints set = Check!

Mount summoned = Check!

Connection to server = FUBARED!

So much for a quiet evening at home…

The Second Day…

Its the second day of my retreat and I’m surfng at 8am… Its either I have issues with internet addiction or the beds suck…

Hmmm…

The internet connection at the hotel is so horrible that I have to resort to using the ICS n my phone… It may not be fantastic but at least I can get online…

BYO Internet…

The internet connection at my wife’s family home in Ipoh in on a fritz, thank goodness for ICS!!!

Messenger problems: Cannot sign in, no error code - Windows Live Community

Messenger has been giving me some problems lately as it wouldn’t allow me to sign in on my desktop… It signs in just fine on my laptops and netbooks but it just wouldn’t sign in on the desktop eventhough all the devices were connected to the same network… Strange eh??? Thankfully I managed to find a fix… If you guys are experiencing the same issue, try out the link below and see if it helps…

Internet MATI 2!!!

After facing an intermittent connection for a few hours, I called my ISP and said “INTERNET MATI”…

10 secs later, this happened…

Not quite what it should be but its a big leap forward… Hopefully they can complete the repairs by next week as promised…
