Earl Grey

August 6th, 2008

Yes Ladies and Gentlemen, it’s that time again. I’m overly bored and feel obliged to post, so here comes some random bullshit!

First off, lets start with Tea. Yes, that’s right. Tea. How many of you faggots enjoy a good old cup of Earl Grey? I know I do. That man was a genius, he made what one can only call a drug, in a very very perfect way…. such a brilliant taste, and caffeine… mhmm the caffeine.

Secondly. Command & Conquer 3 actually lives up to the hype. I’m genuinely suprised by how much fun I’ve been having blowing the fuck out of the GDI as the Brotherhood. They managed to remove all of the moderately annoying factors from the older Tiberium Wars games, IE engineer rushes and built upon the strengths. I can safely recommend it to anyone me thinks. Especially with how balanced the game now feels, well in multiplayer atleast. The campaign is a tad simple for a skilled strategist, and by that I mean someone willing to wait and build up an army BEFORE blowing the fuck out of their enemy, or attempting too.

Thirdly, RANDOM MUSIC IS GOOD. I highly recommend you faggots look up Polysics, in all their weird Japanese glory.

Anyways, I may post something meaningful again oneday. Untill then, enjoy the bullshit!

Boredom

July 9th, 2008

So, it’s been what, under a month since my last exam… Guess what? I’m dying of boredom…

I always thought I’d love the time off, but I just find myself with nothing to do, ahh well. Some plans have been made, jobs applied for, work done, work to be done… Let’s hope it picks up soon ehh?

Scientology NIL, Anonymous OVER NINE THOUSAND

June 15th, 2008

So, as you all know I was in Manchester yesterday for a protest with my fellow Anon… And well… The day was BEYOND epic. From the raising of our standard right through to wall chan, everything we did lead to epic win after epic win against the Scifags, and then, as the crown Jewel, I even managed to Rick Roll the Londonfags who WISH they could win as hard as us.

So probably the first win was the practical blockade we had of the side of the building, to go past it, you had to pass through a crowd of Anon, who were doing their damnest to give out information. Couple that with a group on the other side of the road, and a multitude of pickets inticing drivers to show their support, we already had a minor win on our hands.

But that was only the start, may lulz followed, including the raising of our standard before the church, in true Iwo Jima style.

This gentlemen, is an Epic Win.

Through to the random dancing of many people, the cries of ‘IT’S OVER NINE THOUSAND‘ and ‘THIS IS SPARTA‘ furthered the win, only for it to be set in stone by our March (with standard) around the side of the building, the ‘disturbingly close to a circle jerk’ Air Guitar circle, the epic lulz of the tribute sing along and finally the pure awesome of wallchan.

I can safely say it was the most fun I’ve had in a while, and we even managed to inform people of the evils of scientology. Heading home that night I felt like I’d just won a battle, and well, that we did.

But anyways, I get a call from Becca saying she is with ‘my friends from the internet’ AKA Londonfags. The Londonfags decide to Bel Air me, so I, with full mancfag backing, decided that this called for the big guns…

‘Never gonna give you up, Never gonna let you down, Never gonna turn around and hurt you!’ That’s right, I Rick Rolled them for great justice, and the lulz. I believe that due to the fact they FAILED at the Bel Airing due to NOT KNOWING THE LYRICS, this became a win, and proved that even none moralfag Londonfags FAIL HARD AT EVERYTHING THEY DO (bar trolling emos).
Anyways, I may add more pictures lately, if I can be bothered. For now, DISREGARD I SUCK COCKS.

(Yes, that is Interwebs humour and next to none of you will get it, ahh well. INJOKES FTW!)

Protesting… Internet style! Well, the preperations at least!

June 8th, 2008

Right, so today I went into town and I bought myself my kit for next weeks protest. This is the 4th I believe protest against Scientology on a large scale in Manchester. Anonymous is on the warpath still, and we WILL dismantle the church of Scientology in its current money making scam form and leave what is an actual religion behind.

But how do we plan to do this do you ask? Infiltration is already under way, that should help, and by raising public awareness of all the shit they get up to. Did you know that it costs 360 000 USD to reach the seventh (I believe) level of ’salvation’ within the church?

Anyways. If you want more on this, please do email me, or if you have other means, contact me by them. I’ll forward you to relevant information and sources that word things better than I ever could.

I leave you with the following image, a tribute to the Anonymous that shall be present next week, in similar gear to myself.

A Social Project?

June 3rd, 2008

Well, it appears I have got myself a little consortium of fellow bloggers under my hosting wing at the moment, I’m wondering where this will lead to, to be honest, but I’m glad to have you all aboard. As of this post, we have two new bloggers, both of whose sites can be accessed from the sidebar, so please do take a read!

We have Corky, our first addition. He’s a pretty cool guy with some rather interesting opinions and ponderings that I hope he will grace us with, when they appear.

Our second addition is Intravenous, the only female on board right now who gave us a rather amusing introduction. Let’s hope she can keep it up and not get lost in all the sparkly backend features!

Anyways, if any more of you would like in, just speak to me and I’ll see what can be done!

A Decleration of War.

June 1st, 2008

I, Jake Greer, on behalf of the Art and Development teams of ISV declare war upon upon LV.

Within this document, the terms of this decleration, and the conditions that will nullify it shall be clearly laid out and under the juristiction of the European High Court they shall be considered entirely lawful and binding.

ISV’s Art and Development teams (henceforth referred to as the declarer) shall no longer suffer the injustices imposed upon their design by LV (henceforth referred to as the instigator).

The declarer lists the injustices of the instigator as being:

  • The watering down of the complexity of the declarer’s work.
  • The removal of race mode.
  • The removal of the extra track around Sefton Park.
  • The removal of any outside of the car moments
  • The addition of multiple picture puzzles.
  • The removal of ALL initial puzzle ideas.
  • The removal of Jesus Car.
  • The poor implementation of the reset point.
  • The removal of land form data.
  • The lack of Linux support

Until all of the above conditions are rectifed by the instigator, the declarer revokes the right to acknowledge the instigators existence and by any means necessary, shall see their conditions met. Peace will not be declared until the conditions are met, or LV is destroyed in its entirety. In the latter, the assets of LV will be sold on and the project handed over to a new developer to finish to project as to the original specification.

From this day forth, the 1st of June 2008, the declarer will not sleep or rest for an instance untill his conditions are met, and should they not be, destruction will surely follow.

Remember, though you may kill one of us, ten will rise in our place. We are legion, and until the last member of the declarers dies, along with each and every one of their comrades in arms, there will be no respite.

By the power vested in me by myself (and my other personalities), war begins.

EDIT: And now, a very late addition due to me forgetting about it at the time, thank you for the reminder, Jack.

Another addition to the list of terms is ‘The complete lack of Dragons, Ninjas, Pirates and especially Trogdor.’

A system update… The enforced time for thought!

June 1st, 2008

So here I am, sitting at the same old desk as always (well for when I’m at Dad’s anyways…) and I’m just sitting here, waiting for Ubuntu to update from 7.10 to 8.04, a long process. Still a half hour till the second step (downloading) is complete.

So what thoughts is this boredom bringing upon me? The realisation of what a small world it is in which we live. I spent Friday night having a little movie night in my house, invited a few friends, wound up with the guy who lived in the house before me hanging around till about 4am, then returning later that day.

A small world ehh? Two days ago, all I knew about the previous occupant was the guys name and the fact people still send some spam in his name here, now I know his son, and that he was the one who was looking for his Stephen King books that we think the landlord pawned.

Ironically this isn’t the first time something has proved the ’six degrees of separation’ theory relatively true. For a second example, as some of you may or may not know, I developed a game, as part of a company that we titled ‘InterSchool Visions (or ISV for short)’. Now in this company there were people from different schools, from those in my two teams alone, there were two friends of my friend, both of which I can pretty safely say I got along with, and in the other, there were two girls from St. Hilda’s. Now, as time went on I met another St. Hilda’s girl outside of a school situation and over time came to know she knew them both, along with another director on the board, nothing too surprising I know,  but  further reason to call upon  the ’six  degrees of separation’. Ironically it was also her who brought the guy who used to live here over, so in my case this could turn into the ‘one degree of separation theory’.

So now as I think back through my past, how many steps would it take to reconnect with old friends? How many steps to that random person you’ve bumped into in the street? How many steps to that person you’ve only ever spoke to on the internet?

On another note, my little game project (not the afformentioned one) is now under way… Well, was, now PHP is being a bitch when it comes to using queries to check things… If anyone has any experience with the crap, PLEASE let me know, I need a touch of help seen as I can’t find my Bible:\

Anyways, I hope this ramble was nice and thought provoking for once!

The Digital Trail.

May 28th, 2008

So, most of you are common webusers, but I ask, do you realise how much information is kept on you by EVERY website you use? It’s quite allarming if you ask me. Anyways, for your viewing pleasure, here is what I found.

Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14

Now, the break down. ‘Mozilla/5.0′ points to firefox (which is later confirmed by ‘Firefox/2.0.0.14′ along with ‘Gecko’) Next we have ‘Windows U Windows NT 5.1′ or in English, Windows XP. ‘en-US’ is the OS language, so ‘en-GB’ for us in England. Finally you have a revision number… Keep in mind your IP is also sent with this, and I can tell you that user was using a computer registered to ‘Indiana Department of Education’

Not Enough?

Well, I thought ‘Let’s have another look’ so here we have user 2, myself!

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9b5) Gecko/2008050509 Firefox/3.0b5

Again, we have Firefox, this time version ‘3.0b5′ or 3 Beta 5. My OS is Linux based, and ‘x86_64′ or 64bit. All of which is correct. X11 is also the window system my OS uses. You’ll also note it claims I’m using en-US, that is because my core IS en-US though British dictionaries are installed. A quick WHOIS of my IP returns that my ISP is Virgin media and even which city I reside in.

Email blogging!

May 27th, 2008

Seen as I have a shiny new host, with a lot more freedom with what I do,
I thought I’d best see what new functions I could play with on
wordpress. So here is the first of the ones that may be of use, EMAIL
BLOGGING!

That’s right, I can annoy you all from wherever the fark I am, at the
touch of a button. Sweet ehh?

Ponderings

May 21st, 2008

So, now I ponder once more, a defence against boredom or because I simply want to?

I don’t know… So I write… I write this, I don’t know what I think of my writing really, I wonder what others do, but don’t care at the same time, a strange balance… Like most things in my life.

Anyways. I pondered my friends a little more lately and the part of me that now seems to enjoy the company of others. I realised something… The internet, and MSN is not an acceptable substitute like I treated it for so long. You miss out on so much, that amused grin you can elicit in someone, that knowledge that what you have just said was recieved well, or not…

It is amazing what the human mind can do… Was it the self imposed loneliness that made me think that it was? Or was the loneliness the product of the thought? Am I really recovering now?

Does the fact I wound up in town after my school prom really mean that I’m starting to enjoy the company of others? Or was I just doing it for my friends? Am I selfless enough to do that? Would my uptight and proud about it ego ALLOW that?

I’m still that egotistical fucker I always was… Why do I let it rule my life? Why is it the ego that now provides the confidence, not me searching for it? Is it normal to let the ego come first and the person be shown via it?

I don’t think so… It’s not that I don’t like my ego, I just wonder how much of what is beneath it is seen by the world, and most importantly what parts to which people. Do the right people know of my weaknesses? Do the right people only see that strong and confident side?

Anyways. For now I think this will do. I hope that was worth the moment or so of your life it too to read it!
