30AprThe PSP

When it come to entertainment on the go, a smartphone like my SX1 can be fun, but after playing Tetris until level 15 your mind feels like it shut down hours ago while your fingers autonomously hit away as they’ve done for hours. At night, as you attempt to sleep you close your eyes only to see more blocks falling down at a slow rate and you cannot help but play out various and complex Tetris scenarios with them. Even in your nonvoluntary fantasy you long for a long one to drop down so you can complete the rows you’ve been saving up meticulously.

In order to avoid losing sleep over Tetris blocks, I decided to purchase a Sony PSP™ yesterday.

Design by Shi Ogasawara, you can’t help but hold the console like a sacred perkament. It comes with a stand in case you feel compelled to put it in a trophy case and also comes with cleaning cloth so you can clean it after every time you touch it. It’s shiny like that.

The user interface is very intuitive and looks exactly like what you’d expect from a fantastic media center operating system. It’s flawless in my humble opinion. To input text you use a T9-like system like your phone and the browser cursor can be controlled with the analogue controller.

The only thing that sucketh on the PSP is the sound. It’s excruciatingly quiet. There is an AVLS (Automatic Volume Limiter System) that you can turn off to get a little more juice, but that’s about it.

Other than the sound, it’s a superb and very fun gaming system.

Anywho…I’m off to kill some pedestrians in Liberty City

29AprSome pre-war psyops material to prepare you for the rest of the BS

“It reminds the nations of the world that there is an ongoing diplomatic effort to convince the Iranians to give up their nuclear-weapons ambitions,”
- George W. Bush

The statement and the term “nuclear-weapons” are crafted to embed post-justification for a preemptive attack in the minds of the psyops targets (US voters and other gullible people). Much like the terms WMD and Nine Eleven were used for the Iraq invasion.

Polls show the there are still people that think Iraq and Afghanistan were involved in 9/11. in case you just came out of a coma or only watch Fox “News”, it was planned and executed by people from Saudi Arabia, yet 85 percent of US troops believe a major reason they were sent into war was “to retaliate for Saddam’s role in the Sept. 11 attacks.”

18AprYet Another Crash Moment

Today, I either heard something completely wrong, or I had a disturbing “Crash moment” that could potentially escalate in the future.

I was working at my computer and at the table behind me, the two guys sitting there we talking. One said “I’m gonna put on some music” and so I turned around to see what he meant and I saw him connecting earplugs to his phone (“what a copycat”, I thought to myself) and as he saw me looking at him he continued what he was saying with “…a little bit of Tanin music..”, because I’m usually the one with headphones on listening to music while working…

The other guy replied by uttering “…Taliban music…”. I had just turned back for a quick glance, but now he had caught my full attention. I was thinking “what tha hell..?! Where did that come from?”. As those thoughts churned in my mind, The comments continued and I caught a few more words including “Osama bin Laden” said in a sarcastic tone. I then remembered that the guy that said “…Tanin music” had congratulated me on acquiring nuclear weapons earlier that morning. “Where the hell have I landed!?” was my thought at that point.

I continued with what I was doing (including finishing a sentence to someone else as all of this was going on without flinching a reaction) and continued with my work. …Yet another day at the world’s largest information technology company. Luckily, days such as this one are rare, but suffice to say very memorable.
