Nineteen

Well I’m 19 today, so far I’ve gotten what I wanted.

I bought myself the Battlestar Galactica box set (Mini-Series, Season 1, 2 & 3) and a new poster for my wall (mmm nekkid women).

Adium

I recently installed Adium to check out how good it is, and so far I’m impressed, it is a hell of a lot better than Messenger:Mac from Microshit Microsoft.

My favorite feature is the ability to change the colors on the contact list and make it transparent, now I always keeps my contact list open.
There are many more features i like about it, such as changing sounds and message window styling, Check out the Adium website for screenshots and to download it.

Bond, James Bond

I love the James Bond 007 movies, at least until that really shit James Bond movie came out, Casino Royale.

Don’t get me wrong, Daniel Craig played the part great, but the movie itself was absolutely shit. James Bond movies involve shooting, explosions, sexy cars and women, Casino Royale has hardly any of that.

Die Another Day, Tomorrow Never Dies and GoldenEye are the best 007 movies, They went a little too far with The World is Not Enough, and Casino Royale.

Games DO cause violence

Some people say games cause violence, others say they don’t, Well i say some games cause violence.

For example, my little brother wanted me to help with his Lego Star Wars game, he wanted to finish Episode III so bad he wouldn’t stop bugging me, So i decided to help him with it.

After getting to the last level i wanted to kill someone (But i didn’t so don’t tase me bro), anyway after about 5 tries later we finally completed the level.

But it doesn’t stop there, while taking a break from that shitty level we did a few levels on Episode 1, and the part with the pod-racers also made me want to kill someone (But again, I didn’t).

We finally finished all the levels he had left, and after all that I had a mighty bid headache from all that damn frustration, that game need a warning on it, “May cause violence”.

Back to TAFE

I went down to my old TAFE yesterday to see about finishing off my Diploma in Multimedia, I don’t have much to finish off which is great.

I start on the 4th of February - not too long after my birthday, hopefully with the teacher i hate gone i will be able to work in class peacefully, and not have to worry about some fat bastard watching everything i do on the computer, What i mean is one of the teachers ’spied’ on the students with screen viewing software, I’m surprised they let him put that shit on there.

National Treasure: Book of Secrets

I went to see National Treasure the other day and it was one awesome movie, the first one was good and Book of Secrets is better, I hope they make a third movie.

CSSEdit

My last post was the MacHeist bundle I bought that contains so many awesome apps, but today I’d like to talk about one of my favorites.

CSSEdit 2, This is one awesome application - It lets you create CSS Style sheets within seconds,
Since I’ve installed it I can’t stop using it, the power of this app is amazing.

MacHeist

I purchased the MacHeist Bundle (a bunch of apps for Mac) today, and I have to say it was the smartest thing I ever did.

I got one of the apps I’ve always wanted but didn’t have the money to spend, plus others that will no doubt come in handy in the future…

Mighty Mouse

I love the Mighty Mouse, I really do, However since its started that stupid shit with the side buttons it’s really getting annoying, even with the actions turned off from the Mouse Settings it still makes a clicking sound - even when I’m not touching the buttons.

I grabbed my old mouse from my Winblows computer and already it feels much better, its also faster, but I guess thats because its a laser mouse, Ironically its made by Microsoft.
I think I might buy the Logitech MX400 Performance Laser Mouse, It looks sexy and comfortable.

Exodus

It’s been a while since I posted about my project, Exodus, So far its progress is great I’m now up to doing the AdminCP.

You can get more information on the Exodus Devblog, where I post updates every time I work on Exodus.

Time Machine

Yesterday I went out and bought an external hard drive to use with Time Machine, and to be honest Time Machine is really great.

It keeps hourly backups for the past 24 hours, a daily backup for the past month and weekly backups until the backup hard drive is full.

Ex-Gamer

Look’s like I’m an Ex-Gamer, I say that because since I got my Mac, I haven’t played many games, in fact the only game I played was World of Warcraft but I removed it as its kind of boring.

I setup my old PC and played Call of Duty 4 for a bit but thats quite boring as well,
I guess the only time I will be playing games again is when Half-Life 2 Episode 3 comes out, and that will probably be the only game i play until it complete it, after that I will probably stop playing games again…
