Do pirate it, but do so slowly
Image says all, and was found on this link.
Holidays
They are just too boring. :\
Maybe I need to move my ass up to the Eloor lending library at T.Nagar and get some good novels. Long time since I read anything but programming books and course books. 
Just cause I had to post
Heh, yeah. Randomize once again!
These are the comics I subscribe to and enjoy:
- AppleGeeks - Full and Lite - Both are awesome!
- Ctrl+Alt+Del - Who doesn’t know this one? Ethan’s the Gaming God!
- Decorum - Too much of *-tons but funny nonetheless.
- Evil Inc. - Everything evil, and funny.
- Explosm - The BEST comic online! Nothing, absolutely nothing beats its crude humor!
- Least I Could Do - Absolutely hilarious! One can never match Rayne’s way of thinking.
- Little Gamers - Another one of the very best Gaming comics. This one runs very high on sarcasm too.
- PC Weenies - Tech Humor Toons, and a pretty old running one at that!
- Penny Arcade - Yet another
- PVP - Slightly Apple oriented but good, very good!
- Sheldon - The drawings there are pretty humorous in itself.
- Starslip Crisis - One of the very few Sci-Fi humor comics I’ve found online
- Questionable Content - Lots and lots of sarcasm.
- Perry Bible Fellowship - Tiny strips but very deep!
- The Warehouse - Explosm-like drawings and nearly the same sort of crude humor applied.
- XKCD - God of all web-comics. Enough said.
Do share yours too!
In other news, I found it a bit surprising about how dumb some people can be at times. Totally pissed my evening off today, the things that went about. Sigh, I need to be calmer and quieter. 
Adding to the Wang Theory
Adding to this excellent piece of Bash entry, here’s mine:
… said Hermione, looking skeptical. “You know, the only true thing he said to us was that there have been stories about extra-powerful wangs for hundreds of years.”
“There have?” asked Harry.
Hermione looked exasperated: The expression was so endearingly familiar that Harry and Ron grinned at each other.
“The Deathstick, the Wang of Destiny, they crop up under different names through the centuries, usually in the possession of some Dark wizard who’s
boasting about them. Professor Binns mentioned some of them, but—oh, it’s
all nonsense. Wangs are only as powerful as the wizards who use them. Some
wizards just like to boast that theirs are bigger and better than other people’s.” …
Disturbance in force
Just before a few hours days to the release of the overhyped ‘greatest’ book in history of jupiter earth.
Yeah right, even my blog needed a Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows spoiler news post.
Well, if you are up to date on the leak, here’s a bit of what am talking about:
The bloke who snapped off a few pictures of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and showed it off on the internet is likely to be identified because investigators can make his pictures talk.
This week the anonymous bloke or blokette took pictures of the book and posted them on the world wide wibble including the last chapter.
According to the Times, investigators have scryed into the pictures and are fairly certain they can nab the bloke wot did it. The method did not involve the sacrifice of any goats or chickens either.
Each of the photographs has metadata built into each photo. Canon says that the pics were snapped with one of its cameras. In fact it says it was a Canon Rebel 350D and the model is three years old.
This means that if the owner had the camera serviced at least once then they will have his or her name and address.
However, if the pirate didn’t have it serviced, Canon’s UK head office said it was possible to find out which country the camera was sold in and in turn the warranty.
The owner is probably from the US or Canadian because the camera was not sold anywhere else. Publisher Bloomsbury has promised to send every legal demon it knows at the offender.
Now why do I get a bad feeling that people who think they made a damn good gadget purchase 3 years ago will regret their decision?
Here’s what they’d probably get soon:
Attn: U r a prim suspct in takin pix of HP:TDH, plz srrndr fer interrgtn. kthxbai.
Damn lolcat, doesn’t leave my mind.
