Sorry about my Absence

This past week has been hell, I moved into a new home and before I moved I had the comcast ppl come over to make sure my home was ready so there would be no down time as my work is done over the internet. The comcast represantive walked through my new home, and seemed to inspect some stuff and told me "yep once you move just give us a call and we'll switch the service over, you're good to go as far as wiring is"

Hearing this I assumed he was right, i mean he is the comcast man after all! so moving day comes and goes, I'm all settled in and I hook up all my cable boxes and my modem etc..  I make the phone call to comcast and they tell me my service is all switched over and to enjoy it. So after turning everything on I'm surprised that NONE of it works. I quickly make another call to the comcast company and they insist i go through all this bullshit ass troubleshooting, which I've already done myself and then pretty much call me a dumbass because the trouble shooting doesnt work. To make matters wrst they can't send out a Rep until monday (this was friday) How ppissed I was!

Come monday, the rep (which they charged me for having here btw) tells me my home was only wired for sattelite service and not comcast service >.< he fixes the shit and hands me a bill. Fuck you comcast!

TLDR, Comcast sucks and made me pay for their errors.

ooohhhhh Sony, You Mad?

So I've been keeping up with the ps3 jailbreak info etc and it seems Sony has been doing the same haha
They recently filed a lawsuit targeting the makers of the jailbreak program, even quoting the infamous iphone hacks and  calculator hack lol

Below i copied from psx-scene.com go there for actual pdf documents of the actual court filings!


In an update to the court action against the owners of PSJAILBREAK, I have gotten all the possible recent court documents that are available right now at much personal cost to myself (money for documents), but I thought it would serve the public good to see what the Sony legal dogs are up to.

In these boring legal filings by Sony, it now covers not just PSJailbreak, but also names PSGroove, PSFreedom, OpenPSJailbreak, and they have filed printouts from various blogs, forums, and sites like PS3NEWS with comments and tutorials people have been writing up on how to use these various programs. They even mention of course the phone ports & TI84 calc. hacks.



Sony is using this information, to get the courts to order up faster service, to force the various ISP', Domain Register's, and Web Hosting Services to give up the personal info on their clients so that can serve more court papers on those people, and issue DMCA takedown notices to shut down various sites.

So for the Judge has only granted one order so far, this one is directed to YAHOO! to within 5 business days to turn over all the information they have on a "vladgazoune@yahoo.com", all IP's he used to access his mail, his personal info stored by Yahoo, his email of course, and other logs.

This E-Mail address is the one that was used to rent the mail-drop box in Texas used by http://shoppsjailbreak.com as their virtual office for orders, shipments, registering the domain name, etc.

Recently, that above name site which also goes under the company name of Zoomba stop using the ".com" domain and now is operating under a http://shoppsjailbreak.net domain. -- Plus also the http://psjailbreakcanada.com site which seems to point IP wise to the older site, has suddenly been changed to DOJ/IPR/ICE notice that has been used in the past for "Torrent/Movie" site take-downs!

Anyhow, here is all the public court documents you can read thru them now, and see just what SCEA has been printing out about yourself online, they are asking the court they need to findout the true identify of everyone that sells, makes, offers for sale, or even has just knowledge of the real people behind any project called PSJailbreak, PSGroove, OpenPSJailbreak, PSFreedom.

Don't be surprized if the next few days, you see less sites online, or you find yourself answering the door to a person serving you a Summons to Appear! -- The good reading stuff is the PDF's called Exhibit or Exhibits!

Jailbreak ps3 - ti84+ edition

Just as i stated in my last post it is possible to jailbreak your ps3 with just a TI84+ Graphing calculator, be warned i don't have one on hand so I haven't tested but here is some video proof that it works.

From what I understand some of the features in this jailbreak are limited as they haven't been ported over yet, but if this is your only source for jailbreaking go for it!

Steps:

Get the modded TI-84 file
http://d7972ec6.thesefiles.com

Get Backup Manager (Stealth Version DOES NOT WORK FOR THIS)

Right Click on TI-84 modded file, and Send to TI Device

Push APPS button on TI-84, scroll to PS3JB

Unplug PS3, or flip switch off if using a fat PS3 (Mine was stolen hence the slim one)

Plug TI-84 in, hit enter to get to the menu, and press 1 on PSJB app

Press on and then eject, in my case a game was in I forgot about, I just hit eject again, but once should be all that is needed.

Scroll to Game and look for Install PKG files

Insert Flash Drive

Install manager.pkg

Enjoy future homebrew and backups for PERSONAL USE FOR GAMES THAT YOU OWN!

Jailbreak ps3 with an old ipod touch!

I don't know about you guys, but ever since i heard about the ability to jailbreak ps3 I've been shitting myself, unfortunately i wasn't willing to pay for a device to jailbreak when I knew there were free alternatives. Although most of these free alternatives require equipment that costs more than the actual jailbreaking device, the trick is to find an alternative that works on something you ALREADY have. At this point in time their exists ports of the jailbreak to HTC phones, iphones, ipod touches (1g only), TI-84+ calculators and other devices. I'm posting the video of the ipod touch because it's what worked for me! if you haven't updated your firmware I'd reccomend you look more into jailbreaking your ps3 and the advantages it presents!

Katy Perry's Controversial Sesame Street Appearance

Was it really all that bad or do you think parents were just going overboard?

Drama's Random Thoughts..

They say Flintstone's vitamins are chewable. All vitamins are chewable, it's just that they taste shitty. I'm glad they made Flintstone's vitamins because I used to watch The Flintstones and go, "Man I bet you if I ate that dude, I would be healthy."

I'm stayin' in a hotel right now, there's no 13th floor because of superstition. But c'mon man the people on the 14th floor, you know what floor you're really on.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. Run. He's fuzzy. Get outta here. Gotta go.

I bought a new laptop and a wireless router recently, used the laptop for about an hour before it got really hot and turned off. On the bottom it said 'ONLY USE ON HARD SURFACES', so I went out and bought playboy.

This product that was on TV was available for four easy payments of $19.95. I would like a product that was available for three easy payments and one fucking complicated payment. We can't tell you which payment it is, but one of these payments is going to be a bitch.

Pokemon Coma Theory further explored

I posted some info about the theory that Pokemon the tv series all takes place within Ash's mind as he is in Coma

Heres further discussion about how some of the characters comesto be in his mind and the roles they play

Moving on to the characters closer to him, Ash's traveling partners are aspects of himself that he can enjoy, but doesn't like to associate with himself. Brock is Ash's repressed sexuality. Ash fell into the coma a virgin and needed an outlet for his growing sexual frustrations. Since he can never experience sex, Brock must never succeed. But Brock isn't just a projection of Ash's sexuality, he is also a projection of Ash's fatherly instincts. Brock leaves his siblings to journey with Ash because Ash can't cope with having that much responsibility at his age. Brock's stay with professor Ivy was an attempt to outright suppress his sexuality. You may notice that James got much more dialogue in this part of the series, as well as getting more touchy-feely with his Pokemon and exposing most of his backstory. Ash didn't enjoy this much, which is why Brock comes back horrified and refuses to speak about it (Ash's subconscious was repressing him at the time, so other than a general feeling of dread, he has no idea of what happened). Further evidence of Brock being Ash's sexuality is that he keeps returning to the series after Ash meets a new girl aspect of himself.

Misty is the first such aspect we encounter. Because she is the first and because she is merely an aspect of Ash are explanations for why Misty plays so prominently in the show but is ultimately unattainable (because he never really knew her before the coma). Since Misty is his initial love interest - if only subconsciously - he needed her to reach a certain level of womanhood. He felt that people could only have relationships after they've matured. In practice, though, he finds that he can't cope with it (lacking the real-world experience) and wants the normal pushy, arrogant Misty he knew, thus not letting her keep Togepi. We can see this arc in the constant berating of his sexuality (Brock), but her eventual mellowing until she had faded into the background. Since Ash was quite attached to her, this was traumatizing and after this experience, anyone around him "threatening" to mature quickly ends up leaving for another, more naive fill-in.

Gary Oak is what Ash wants to be. He is wish fulfillment. He succeeded, and then settled down to a normal life. Ash needs someone to succeed in his world or he won't be able to validate it and will start questioning why he is where he is. It's a subconscious trap to keep him from becoming too aware of his situation. His mind must have figured out that awareness of the coma would snap him out of it, but it would cause brain damage, so it took something the boy already loved and built a way out for him with it. However, Ash is too complacent to make a final stand and fight his way out of it, and so cannot escape. This is why he keeps encountering Legendary Pokemon. They're his mind's way of showing him he can do great things if he tries, and it's a way to encourage him to push forwards.

I've come across something quite interesting!

Whoile browsing the net late last night I've cme accross a number of theories about the Pokemon universe, and I feel it HAS to be shared, so why not through my blog =P

I'm gonna post bit  by bit so you guys keep checking for updates and hopefully we can have a good discussion about this theory in my comments.

Heres the first bit.


Have you ever noticed that the pacing, tone and story development of Pokemon changes after Ash is hit by lightning in the early episodes, how Ash and his world were relatively normal until after the incident?

I have a theory.

The accident with the bike put Ash into a coma. Days later he was found and was hurried to the hospital and treated with heavy medications, which is why Team Rocket became less menacing. The medication took effect and stabilized his coma dreams so that instead of being terrifying, they became idyllic, allowing him to live out his Pokemon master fantasies.

After the beginning episodes, the series is the result of Ash's subconscious mind fulfilling his desires, as well as attempting to escape reality. Should Ash realize he's in a coma, he would wake up, but suffer brain damage, so he must take down all of his mental barriers one by one until he can come to grips with who he is and escape his coma (since his mind will not allow him to escape until he's come to terms with himself).

Opinions? leave a comment!

The Beggining, The End.

Has anyone ever wondered what MGS3 would be like if The End were alive? I think the developers got lazy with that one, that boss battle sucked balls!
