Sony Ericsson’s XPERIA X1

Posted by ePlus on 12 February, 2008 at 0:28 am

When I saw photos of this new phone my knees went weak – this got me excited!
 
After moving from traditional phones such as the Nokia 6230 and the Nokia 6300 to the Blackberry 8120 Pearl I am not attracted to smart phones. You can do so much with a smartphone than any other normal mobile out there.
 
Though in all fairness I haven’t made the most out of my Blackberry due to being a cheap ass and not getting the contract Blackberry Internet Service I am basically only missing out on having email redirected to my Blackberry. And shit, what a shame that is as I enjoy reading death threats and being accused of being racist! Yeah, people actually seem to think that I am a racist because I posted some photos of some niggaz being photoshoped, if that is even possible! :wink:

The Hi5 Generation

Posted by ePlus on 6 February, 2008 at 19:38 pm

Hi5… I don’t even know why I am bothering to write about this, it is bad enough I get shitty requests installing various lame applications on Facebook such as “What Condom Are You?”, “You have a Your Sex IQ? invitation” and other brain cell killing applications. Just FUCK OFF!

What pisses me off with these dumbass applications is that when you load up that girl that you are always gizzing when you see her and you want to check out those photos of her posing drunk last weekend hugging a toilet, you have to wait half an hour for her profile page to load up because the dumb slut has so many applications installed it slows down your browser to a crawl, slower than a fucking snail going uphill on prozac! And you are trying to close that window, swearing and cursing wishing it would hurry the fuck up…

As if you wanted in the first place to see how many hugs she has received or what flavour condom she is. WHO GIVES A FUCK?! Fuck – it just pisses me off that majority (99.9%)of people on Facebook have the IQ of hamster…

Back to Hi5, well what can I say about this. Facebook and MySpace are for Americans, UK and other more upmarket countries with less slutty users and Hi5, Bebo and other half as good social websites are practically bride.ru. You go there see which chick tickles your tastes and you say three intelligent words to her and BAM – she’s yours.

I just got a link to a profile page of a chick on Hi5. Well what can you expect. Is like a market on there, which one can sell herself better and be more explicit but too explicit to get her pictures deleted.

I saw photos…. Fuck it, I’ll share some with you along with a small description of what I think that is happening in the photo:

Random Photos

Ubuntu + Windows XP + VirtualBox

Posted by ePlus on 4 November, 2007 at 18:54 pm

This is one of the latest things that I have tried out while on Ubuntu and what can I say, I am really impressed, especially with the “Seamless Mode” which looks something like this:

VirtualBox in Seamless Mode

Basically what VirtualBox does (and in way this is the correct definition, I am just saying what I think it does) is that it emulates an environment on your current (host) OS and allows you to install another OS in that emulated environment. All that VirtualBox creates is a big ass file that grows as you load more shit on the OS that you are emulating and then various files for the snapshots if you were to take any.

The “big ass file” that VirtualBox has created on my system is 1.5GB in size where I have Windows XP installed and Winamp! Though it is obvious that the more stuff you install the bigger that file will get, like with any OS where you install more software it will eat more space!

The other “various files” are snapshots of sessions that you can take in case you fuck something you can revert back to a saved point. So lets say for instance you just installed Winamp and then you go and uninstall some audio drivers which will fuck up your audio and you can’t hear anything. Rather than you having to fixing it like you would have to if you were running it as your main OS you can just revert back before you started messing around and voila, all good. On my system the files are around 200Mb-300Mb, but that vary too.

Really you are running an OS within another OS in an emulate environment. It is pretty fucked up and NOT what you could call Windows software on an Linux platform, but the “Seamless Mode” just makes it a whole lot better than Wine – in my opinion anyhow.

True it is a bit confusing configuring the emulated OS to transfer files with the host (main OS) but that is easily fixed once you read the manual :roll: I haven’t yet configured the emulated (guest) OS to connect to the internet as you have to bridge the connection between the guest OS and the host OS for which you have to install some packages and do some hardcore configuring of files manually through terminal which I haven’t got around to doing that yet!

Though I can say that I am pleased that I am able to run Winamp and DFX and to put to good use my Logitech Z-550!

Back to sharing files in between the guest OS and the host OS, just so you know you have to select the folders which you want shared in VirtualBox and then those folders will become available in the gust OS (the OS which is being emulated) via “Network Places >> Entire Network >> VirtualBox Shared Folders”.

Useful websites:

Vista on Ubuntu Using VirtualBox

P.S. To be able to install any guest OS on a host OS through VirtualBox you will need the installation CD or an CD image (.iso, .bin, etc.) for that particular OS!

The ASUS Eee PC

Posted by ePlus on 28 October, 2007 at 16:58 pm

Only just 20 minutes ago I found out more information regarding the Eee PC and I thought I would share it out as well to get it out there to be better advertised so that many more users will be more aware of it.

The Eee PC is a ultra portable laptop/notebook. It is basically in between a Palm PC and a portable laptop/notebook which is priced at around £170. NOT BAD! Anyway. here are a few pictures taken off some sites that reviewed it and I’ll let you read about it all you want!

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

While it is very tempting to get one, I will wait until at least the second or third generation to come out before I will be thinking about buying one. I am hoping that those generations will have a larger screen, bigger (FLASH) disk space, faster processor and a bit more RAM. And on top of that they would’ve learned from the mistakes of the previous generations to improve on the newer ones. It could well be a good 2008 after all! :lol: :lol:

Apparently to keep the cost of the Eee PC down ASUS have not bundled it with Windows XP (though a version with XP has been announced) and that at the moment the versions of the laptop which are being reviewed have a resolution of around 800×480… Now that’s a lot of scrolling! Also another disadvantage for me at the moment is that it comes with 4GB flash disk storage and apparently the OS that comes installed on it takes around 3GB of that space.

So I don’t know if ASUS are making the users buy external storage devices or maybe they will up the storage on later generations. I know for sure that I wouldn’t want to have a laptop and then carry around with me a spare battery, an external hard disk and other various shit to get my laptop to work. It is either portable (and usable) for a couple of hours or it isn’t and also be able to store data which you use often such as music and pictures. (Obviously torrent and such are out of the question) :smile:

What Friends Photos Mean

Posted by ePlus on 21 September, 2007 at 16:29 pm

After months of not updating due to laziness and just because I couldn’t be fucked here is another great update with something random!

This should give you a good understanding of what your friends photos mean on MSN, Yahoo and any other instant messaging program you use. And the funny thing is, that it is true! ;) :D

As I seem to be receiving these sorts of emails in my inbox every other week, I thought it would be a nice sequel to the previous posts. :grin:
