I guess it would stand to say that I am incredibly excited about the release of Duke Nukem Forever. Let’s traverse my childhood. Let’s traverse our culture, and how far we’ve come. more »

Feuer Frei! Die Zerstörung des terrestrischen Hörfunks Medien

Posted: May 17, 2010 at 9:47 pm

You know, I have heard from quite a few people, “You have a radio voice. You should be doing more radio broadcasting.” And you know, something I heard from a movie, “Just because you have a big cock, doesn’t mean you have to do porn.” And it’s true, but for more than just that reason.

Truthfully, I have a problem with the terrestrial radio broadcasting industry, that is alleviated in the Internet medium: The barrier of entry is ridiculously high to get to a somewhat narrow audience. Don’t get me wrong, that audience is also much more likely to buy your advertiser’s products and all. But I mean, come the fuck on, how the hell do kids our age get into the business and really start to produce content in a shorter period of time than the generation before us? It isn’t terrestrial radio, I’m afraid. more »

Biblical Blasphemic Paronomasia

Posted: May 9, 2010 at 11:20 pm

Conversation starts at: Dana Linnell is working on sowing a place to become her creative repository, she thought about putting in some forums. I noted that hey, if you’re working on creating a community around yourself, sure. Dana tossed around names for her subscribers and shit, things like n3rds, g33ks, t3h_g33kz and what have you.

To segue, you, the reader, also must consider: What was once a oft-admitted practice is now not only mainstream, but coming close to being the societal norm. Yeah, thanks fucking Microsoft Windows for being such a lousy piece of shit operating system that every user getting their hands on it must pick up knowledge that they shouldn’t have to, to operate their equipment. What ever happened to grab it and it just works? But I digress.

A concept occurred to me, and I’m like OMFG you know what would be funny? And then I came up with this, based on some lines from the Bible:

Pwns 25:8 Boobs and Awesome are the Dana: therefore she will lead pwners in the way.
Pwns 25:9 The geek will she guide to dominate, and the geek she will teach her way.

Pwns 25:12 What man is he that feareth the Dana? She shall teach he in the way that she shall choose.
Pwns 25:13 His frags will swell at lot, and his arm shall consecrate the map.

ShariVegas 5:5 Blessed are the geek: for they shall inherit the earth.

I got a kick out of it, at least.

Color Theory and the Future of Advertising

Posted: May 4, 2010 at 12:01 pm

Traversing this interesting universe created from the amalgamated minds of culture around the world, you would figure, would bring the absolute best and brightest talent to our places of certification.

Certifications used to mean something. They used to mean that you had the drive, passion and hutzpah to accomplish your goals and your financial risk was a near doppelganger to your ability and the level of trust that could be put in you to create the most diverse and clever solutions. more »

Wordpress hackery!

Posted: May 2, 2010 at 5:19 pm

Never fails. If you want something done, you’ve got to do it yourself, right?

Yeah, who would’ve known that hey, Wordpress actually has a limited amount of what’s actually bundled-in functionality, the rest is up to the end-user on how it’s treated: Blog, overgrown CMS, whathaveyou.

After doing some fighting, the blog is finally acting as I want it to. It should give me a base to allow for other people to contribute on their own pages.

Edit: And even more, I’ve been able to toss in a twitter widget on any page I want. Woot. Follow @KC7YRH :)
