The Splatter Of Tech Podcast

Posted onAuthorTech News1 Comment

The tech podcast world is down to just Leo Laporte and TWIT.TV. 100s of tech podcasts done in audio only, have fallen to the side and called it quits. When we were all hoping for a new change in media, a tech Media news outlet like no other media outlet. We have a cry of failure.
it seems we are losing out on Audio podcasts. No more days dredging at work with your headphones on drowning out the world, unless you have to try and re-hip yourself on today’s music.

I’m ready to pay a monthly fee for good quality podcasts.
New media is dead.

if you know of any I mean any podcast that still exists and is worth listening to, please send the link here.

April 2010 In Tech News

Posted onAuthorGame News1 Comment

That was a very busy month for tech news. Lots of great things came, some not so great but that is almost unnoticeable. Looks like good news for the gaming world all the way around. Bad news for the business phones. Then again, no one really used palm anymore anyway.

XP Update KB977165 Crash Pc

Posted onAuthorGame News

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.

Tech Podcasts to start out August Work Schedule

Posted onAuthorTech News

Every week every day I have to start out listening to my shows. I start with sdr then move to the tech guythen caffination and then twit. Through out the week I pick out the rest.  Following week, I start all over. Occasionally I get lucky  and Jobacle has a new episode. If you send topic requests, he might actually research the topic and hook you up.  Really well done program, just not enough of it there.  The unsigned musicians portion of the show really is good stuff, most of time!

Twit This Week In Tech, a network created by Leo Laporte. Shows I highlight that I must listen to every week.

The Tech Guy, Net@Nite,TWIT.

Tech Podcast Network Place to hear tech podcasts and select from a few. sdr, linux news log, Mike Tech, CaffiNation,

Podnutz A gathering of tech podcasts on one network. pretty good stuff.

At the top of every page on the tech news site, there is a tool bar, you don’t have to use it but it does already have the podcasts I listed here in the rss feed and the radio player. I use that tool bar on my bootable linux thumb drive, my home pc, my laptop, my work pc , scanned a million times over  there is nothing to fear from that bar it really is very useful. but again, you o not have to use  it to try the podcasts I listed.

Info from ARS TECHNICA

Brothers Caught scamming people into buying stuff that was easily free and available on the internet. Some of the stuff they were caught selling was movies that you could get at any illegal download site, same quality, but not free. This leaves the purchaser comfortable in the assurance they are not breaking the law.

The brothers have been running site scams for a while according to fileclub.info .

From What is said at ARS Technica the websites they ran where taken down shortly after having thier information posted on the internet.

Here are people claiming to have been scammed by websites that are allegedly owned by the brothers.
