Windows 7 Beta 7100 Ends 2 days

Sure did not feel like very long on that dang thing. 2 days as the drum beats and it’s lights out or upgrade.
I did find few Windows Vista installs that come with free windows 7 upgrades. for around 130. To me that sounds like
a peach of a deal. Found it at zipzoomfly, not going to link it because heh. I’m not getting any kick back.. nah because I don’t feel like searching for it till I’m ready, but I did saw it earlier today. So I know it’s there

Good Luck

“Blapkmarket” pirated app Shut down

This news is from TechCrunch
I do not understand some of the stupid fees people charge for some of the aps they sell.
I mean many people have completely justifiable fees for their software. Because they thought of something totally new to solve a problem they have been facing.
but have you tried a pdf reader yet? IMHO, the only people who should be able to charge for a pdf ap, are the ones who first created pdfs. I think it would be best if Foxit just made a free pdf reader for droid and made it available, to kill out all of the jerks charging for pdf readers. same thing for open office. Why is it that someone other than the inventors of excel, can charge for a program that reads excel files? IMHO that is pirating.
How about the hundred pay version of fake snake and pacman ?
If it is fake and not the inventor, why can this guy who compiled it (cloned for droid or what ever you call it) can charge for it? is that not plagiarism ?

but I did find one guy who made a voltage drop calculator, now that dude had a task and wanted to make it easier. He should get paid for his works, and get a gold medal!! lol.
I would bet that most of the people who’s “works” got pirated, can’t really press charges, because their stuff is a rip off of someone else’s work.

I do think it’s good the pirating site is down. because of all of the legit software, it needed to be shut down. I do have to say though, that almost everything I have tried to install on my phone that I needed, was trials for software that is a rip of some other software. Of course I did not install even the free trial.

Here, Grand Theft Auto Five Speculations and Rumors

Bill Gates Pushing for Cleaner Nuclear Future

He has the right idea, use the waste from power plants to create more power.

This could lead to the dudes who buried  I mean “disposed of” nuclear waste  of the past getting a clean conscience. Actually, what would be the likelihood of them coming forward with saying “yes by the old standards of  laying a pillowcase and two twigs on top it was properly disposed of, and by todays law those standards should be fine for a million years”  .  What we need them to say is ” Well ok everyone we buried the most radioactive material ten feet below every church/hospital/elementary school and well we used to think that was fine, but further study from all sorts of fine programs we have across the world, we find that it is not the safest plan, so we have to dig this stuff up and burn it in our ‘recycling old crap’ machine.  But yeah right , who would rebuild the churches and schools???

So if the machine can be created, I have faith in Bill, we just need a loud voice out there to speak for the past and present…any got any suggestion?

Here is the magical save all story

Site status check

Website Status, value and worth.

Well I have been working with  the company website ( the company I work for) trying to see what it’s page rank was and how well my SEO skills are. Doing that usually consisted of me hitting about 10 websites every day and me making the adjustments to the company website I felt like I needed to make.

Well, just as you would, I got tired of all of the Google searches I had to do and bookmarks to crank through. so I found a site that some dang dude was selling a php script  that would supposedly  do all the work for me. Well the program barely did but it gave me some insight as to what labors I needed to perform on the PHP script to make it work like I needed to get the information i needed

I needed  page rank information, I needed to see how many index pages in search engines I had, I also needed to find how many websites linked to me. So I took this clump of crap I bought for like  four dollars and started asking around if I could use tools from the sites the guy originally incorporated. Sad thing is, I have not gotten the “value” part in a monetary pattern. Soooo, It will not tell you what your website is worth.. Heck I don’t really have much faith in any of those sites. If you know of one that works really well and is spot on, please tell me where it is. I will contact the site owner and see what i can get done, for him, for me , for the users.

Website Status, value and worth.

Oh there is a “whois” tool added so you can check if a domain you want is open, sorry I do not sell website domain names. I do how ever like Netfirms. They seem to have the best prices. I don’t care much for their storage though.

XP Update KB977165 Crash Pc

just thought I would let everyone know, that some windows XP machines after installing the update KB977165 released February 9th 2010 will cause a BSOD on windows XP with the stop message STOP Error 0×0000007E. Its unclear whether a Malware infection has to be present on the machine to conflict with the update. Haven’t gotten that far yet.

Some say the patch issue is on computers already affected with the issue that the patch supposedly resolves .  I know that at work, we had a series of computers that would not boot properly. Many of them showed would run really slow or not access our network ( may not be related stuff but timing is right)

This guy gives a smaller version of the fix, I think I have to go through both of them and see what one works. Oh BTW did I tell you my mother’s pc is BSOD ?

We’ll have to walk around the office and run the patch fix when it comes in, because man….. the people at work sure do surf like madmen.
They just click anything and everything like they have nothing to worry about. Guess that’s like job security for me.
