A Droid that no longer does

Yesterday I got a Motorola Droid that was dropped into a lake for a few minutes by one of my fathers co-workers. I diagnosed the symptoms it was having as a water damaged battery, as I have had success with that easy fix before, but it was on when it went into the lake, so it could be something more. I already ordered a battery for it from the interweb, and it shows the plugged in light on the side of the phone. The phone also had its 16gb micro sdhc in place, which works fine. If I cannot make the whole phone work I may use the micro sdhc as an ssd in my soon to arrive netbook. In all the phone is very nice, and if I could find one for AT&T that was not $300 I would certainly purchase it.

Except for not working, the phone seems to be in excelent condition.

Mine looks like this except it has fingerprint smudges on the screen.

The Bounty Hunter

Right now I am watching The Bounty Hunter, starring that guy from 300 who talks like a young Sean Connery and that girl who dated Brad Pitt. In all I would rate the film at a 37/64. The only upside to the movie is that the background music reflects the plot of the movie. At the end they both get arrested together. Also it has funny lines occasionally, as all romantic comedies do.

I also just bought a PS3 for $51.00 on eBay.

My PS3 is functional, except for slight overheating issues.

This reporter thinks it’s about f**king time

Yeah, I haven’t posted in forever and it’s not valuable stuff when I do. I’m not sorry, readers. Bloggers shouldn’t apologize to the blogosphere. The ‘sphere is at the mercy of the ‘er. The blogger will give as much or as little information as they want, like some sort of crazy deity dude who is in their boxers in their mom’s basement.

Since I have gotten up close and serious with the Internet, I have grown obsessed with and weaned off of Mount and Blade. I would still suggest it to anyone. After 85 hours and conquering three kingdoms and having no obvious enemies anymore, the Kingdom of Rico isn’t as much of a diversion.

If you haven’t gotten Alien Swarm on Steam, obviously get it. It’s free, awesome, and has a very large community of gamers of people I know. During this honeymoon phase there is bound to be a lot of community development and it should be easy to get four players you actually know to play the game. Unfortunately, there is only one campaign, but you get what you pay for. I am sure a bunch of programmer bros are already making new campaigns.

My webcomic repertoire has expanded to the Monday-Wednesday-Friday XKCD, Ctrl-Alt-Del, Robots With Feelings, and Penny Arcade; Daily Cyanide and Happiness and Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, and the enigmatic Sunday-Tuesday-Thursday Darths and Droids. All of them are worth your devoted loyal fanbase attention.

I am pumped for next semester so much it hurts. I am like a bike tire that has been pumped up to maximum capacity. I am fully loaded and ready to roll, but probably slightly misshapen and ready to pop at any second. The room is going to be hardcore and the football team will be playing terrible, terrible teams so we have a chance to get some serious wins. It won’t mean we get a high rank or anything but at least we won’t go home disappointed that often.

Inception was such a hardcore movie. It was like having your balls ripped off, and seeing your balls in the other guy’s hand, but looking down and you still have your balls. It was enlightening.

Have a great day and go Pirates.

The lack of wisdom

I recently had my wisdom teeth “extracted”, and have not eaten real food for the last three days except for some soup that my mother bought me from panera bread, which was soft enough to consume without fear of damaging the stitches where the teeth would have come in. I had this operation on Thursday, and was given Vicoden. I have no idea why anybody would choose Vicoden as a drug. It is not tasty or mind-expanding. The only benefit that I could find in it is that it eliminated any pain I would have felt after the extraction.

To make myself feel better Thursday I purchased a netbook on ebay. Looking back on the purchase it was an ill-researched impulse buy. I bought an HP mini 1030NR without a hard drive for $116. I should be able to turn a profit of at least $100 after adding a 160gb drive.

The Thinking Man’s Bullet

Burnt Face Man 9 is the most hilarious one yet.

I don’t know why it’s so funny, though.

You can watch the admittedly nonsensical series from the start, here.

Comin’ over faster than some mushroom seeds

My iPhone is dying, and I have been banned from purchasing a new one. I have to put it into the freezer for about 10 minutes to make the wifi work. This is a temporary fix suggested by the internet, but as soon as the phone warms up again the wifi is back to disconnecting and reconnecting to my network over and over again. I have another logic baord for the phone upstairs, but I hate the thought of taking it apart. That would ruin the external appearance, and probably break the majority of the internal components (I have a disassembled iPhone for spare parts, but would prefer not to take this one apart).

This needed to be included for good measure.

Posting from work

I am posting from my new laptop while in an office! I cannot read the Filemaker Pro tutorial any more and I leave in 20 minutes. In all I have time to kill. Any thoughts on increasing website traffic exponentially? My boss needs the HRRF website to gain a bunch of traffic, and eventually donors to the cause.

I was thinking that there is not too much of a market in our generation, so any thoughts on the older types? We would be looking at like the 50+ aged types who make bank.
