I just got my tracking number on my KAWS BLUE GID, it will be here tomorrow.

Firefox 1.5 RC 2

so if you don’t have Firefox yet…
you are missing out. I still use Safari as my main browser but I use Firefox for specific tasks as it handles some pages way better than Safari (if you are using explorer or some other shit you are way behind). I use Firefox to post everything on this site as it gives me many more options in blogger.
Ok sales pitch over. I just put a link to it to the right of this on the side bar. Download it from there and my ass will get $1, which means I get to buy more stupid things that is will take pictures of, which in turn makes you come back here to leave comments questioning my sexuality, my maturity or both.

DALEK x TONY HAWK UNDERGROUND 2

So in Tony Hawk Underground 2 if you finish the game you get to play as a fucking DALEK SPACE MONKEY. When I was looking up how to do this I also noticed that to “Unlock Unlimited Rail balance” you have to put in the password “straightedge”. nice. Obviously some core dudes over at Neversoft.

Apple preparing for “full assault” on MS?Saw this on MACNN:
Apple may be gearing up for a “full assault on Microsoft,” according to Architosh. A recently discovered patent to Mac OS X and Intel Macs seems to describe a system whereby users would be able to load one operating system as their “primary OS” and then load another operating system as their “secondary OS.” Apple has already said it will not prevent other operating systems from being installed on future MacTels. However, this patent suggests Apple will actually offer some mechanism through which users can manage and run multiple operating systems: “the patent describes a process whereby users would be able to load one of three operating systems as their primary OS and then load a secondary operating system as their secondary OS. In the patent application, titled, System and method for creating tamper-resistant code, they describe the process as thus: (22) The method of claim 20, wherein the first operating system is selected from the set consisting of Mac OS X, Linux, and Microsoft Windows. (23) The method of claim 20, wherein the second operating system is selected from the set consisting of Mac OS X, Linux, and Microsoft Windows.”

Sun Kil Moon

So the new Sun Kil Moon record is out. Oddly enough it’s 11 Modest Mouse covers, but it’s fucking amazing. So the really odd thing here is Cameron Crowe is putting out the vinyl version on his label(Vinyl Films). Now I fucking hate Cameron Crowe, he makes shit movies for 30’s something half wits. Only rivaled by Oliver Stone for the crown of fake good movies. This really didn’t start as a rant againt Cameron but while I’m on a roll let me just post this:

What’s odd about Crowe is how pervasive his influence is, or seems to be; there are so many movies that feel like they could have been directed by him (Serendipity comes to mind), mostly because lesser directors steal his actors and his tricks. Likable lead, comely lady, ol’ time rock ‘n’ roll song for the trailer. All this bad-Xerox mimicry has made Crowe seem like the voice of a generation — much as John Hughes once was. Yet in his own films, all Crowe can do is spout slogans; he’s a voice with nothing to say.

At their core, Crowe’s movies are distressingly anodyne: Be nice. Play fair. Walk wide-eyed into this world, and appreciate its wonder, especially when said wonder unfurls to a song by Elton John.

In fact, the most enjoyment we’ve gotten out of Cameron Crowe in years has nothing to do with him at all. It’s that fake trailer for the fake movie Shining that’s been circulating the internet for weeks(which I posted here). The most inspired moment in the fake trailer is the use of Peter Gabriel’s “Salisbury Hill,” so perfectly employed as the Pavlovian cue for all viewers to prepare their hearts for warming. This kind of Easy-Bake moment is exactly what Crowe’s best known for, and best at: a moment that effectively cues you to feel something you remember having felt before, rather than inspiring an actual honest emotional response.

Anyways the guy has put out a Low record and some various other cool things on vinyl. For the record I like Fast Times at Ridgemont High and I almost like Vanilla Sky but he lifted that movie from Abre Los Ojos so that doesn’t count. Let me return to the point of this post, check out Sun Kil Moon.
