First day with iPod Touch

Posted by Misconstruct on Feb. 1, 2011, 10:26 a.m.

Yesterday was my first day using my iPod Touch, so I figured I'd share my initial impressions of the device.

I'll start with iTunes. I've used iTunes before, but it's been over a year. When I first tried iTunes on the PC many years ago, I hated it. Super sluggish. …

Zune HD

So after a few drops, one finally managed to break my Zune HD. Or maybe it was the part where I accidentally hurled it at the wall that got it, I dunno. But it's broke.

So what do you do with broken electronics? Take them apart! Without screwdrivers of any …

You just don't do things like that.

So one of my fellow sailors who has me added on Facebook posted the following status yesterday:

Dear Navy,

After making me march a mile on icy sidewalks in 20 degree weather without gloves for "uniformity", and then making me sit around with nothing to do for 45 minutes but wait to take the 5 minute anonymous survey that all this is for, do you really expect …

Stuff and more stuff

Watched two more movies out of the bundle I bought on Amazon recently. The Fall and Man on Wire. I skipped Dark City, which was next on my to-watch list after The Fall, because I really wanted to watch Man on Wire. I'll be watching Dark City next though, then …

Upgraded my internet from Cricket mobile to Clear mobile. I'm quite satisfied with the results! Whereas my Cricket internet would download stuff at a horrible 8 kbps on a bad day, I'm getting up to 100x faster speeds with Clear. I don't have to wait for Youtube videos to load, …

My first Amazon haul! (of 2011)

Posted by Misconstruct on Jan. 18, 2011, 1:38 a.m.

As you may or may not know, I like buying stuff. I have been able to resist the urge to hand my wallet over to Amazon in 2011 thus far, but I finally had to break down and buy some shit.

Movies:

About Schmidt

Boy A

Cache (Hidden)

Yet another V3 mockup!

Posted by Misconstruct on Jan. 4, 2011, 12:59 a.m.

This is a complete mockup of V3, combining ideas of Canadonian and my own.

It's a quick mockup whipped up in Photoshop, so don't get bent out of shape over flaws such as the fact that "Canadonian" and "Following" in the sidebar are different shades and that the crowns next …
