Computers

Relieved

Well, after my last post where I told you guys about my computer, I did manage to talk to the people again. They had backed up all of my information and somehow didn’t fuck it up.

They had told me that all my files were probably gone. Now I really think they stole my hard drive.

I really wish I could report them to some authority somewhere for this shit. No use in crying over spilt milk, though. Just have to push ahead and do my thing. At least I’ll be getting my files back but it looks like the computer itself is toast.

Never trust computer fixit stores.

Seriously, I took one of my laptops in to a PC repair shop up in Madison to be fixed and the fucking assholes either broke my hard drive (which was NOT broken) or switched it out for a broken one.

I am so pissed right now. WTF is that shit? And I can’t even do anything about it because when I dropped it off, I told the guy I wouldn’t be right back for it because I was going to be out of town. Well, he didn’t bother telling me they had a time limit when I dropped it off. So now he’s telling me the laptop is gone, my files are gone and its just too bad.

Discovering Plug-ins

WordPress became my blog platform of choice about 6 years ago. I cannot believe how much it has changed over the years. For a while we were getting revisions and updates every couple of weeks – and that was a total pain in the ass. Every time there is an update I have to run the download and install on almost 80 websites. That takes a lot of time and there is always the chance that something will go wrong.

Things have lightened up a bit now – thank God! But now I have been poking around the WordPress site and finding a lot of new features that are being tested and a whole lot of apps that are available for free download. I am going to try a few on on of my sites and see if they work as well as they seem.

Tablets

The newest fad in personal computing is the tablet. Have you seen an iPad or Xoom? They are like less than half the size of a laptop computer but they have all kinds of extras built in that the laptops don’t. The coolest is the built in in cameras for taking photos to upload to Facebook or for using Skype for video conferencing calls.

The only person who I have heard with any criticism is that if you are going to do a lot of typing, then not having a traditional keyboard becomes a real drag. Of course, you can get a wireless keyboard to use with one, but how are you going to carry that around?

Here comes the free porn tubes!

Just in case you have not heard or seen there are a bunch of free porn tubes hitting the internet at the moment and it seems everyday another one is made, even for niches like milfs and shemales. For consumers having access to free porno video clips and movies is almost priceless but from an adult industry stand point is has got to be like a heart attack happening right now. As who would ever buy porn anymore if you could get it for free online? Why the adult industry content providers have not sued websites like Pornhub and filed DMCA complaints to have it removed from the web and search engines is beyond me rather it seems the industry is embracing the new tubes and are now providing content for them.

So this begs the question what are consumers going and willing to pay for? That answer is best answered by looking at the ads on the tubes as it seems live sex cams is what porn consumers are willing to pay for. I for one love the sex tubes and have a couple of favorites already bookmarked and linked in this post but I am wanting to find more so if you know of a great tube site you hit me up with URL.
