Portable Computing!


What the hell?
I get that you need to bring your iMac to work, but can’t you just carry it like a normal human? I swear I never saw the guy take it off his back when he sat down. He must have, because this cannot provide good back support.

*UPDATE* – 9/30/09 – I saw this guy coming home today. Either it was just a weird coincidence or he’s been using this thing as his laptop.

The trials and tribulations of a Dell power supply.

Cooler Master SNA-95

Cooler Master SNA-95


So this came in the mail a few weeks ago and I thought it was great, but then I started to realize that my battery charging light was never on. Then I figured out why. Dell has some kind of chip in their power supplies that is recognized by the computer. The computer will only let the adapter charge the battery if it’s an Official Dell Product. My only guess is that’s something to do with them wanting to rape every last cent out of their customers… probably not their official wording.

So I went back to Amazon and ordered another cheap power supply. This time for only $20. They seem to be having a price war between Cheap Chinese Crap (CCC) manufacturers. So this one feels even cheaper than the last one, but it isn’t as hot as the surface of the sun like the last one. But it does have it’s own quirk. The trackpad won’t work while the battery is charging and even if the battery is removed it just gets all squiggly. This might be a product of the CCC battery that I have in there or the CCC ram. Now that I think about it, Lappy Topperson is becoming the Six Million dollar man of shitty laptops.

Jessica Simpson is still an idiot.

From the Article:

Jessica Simpson’s beloved maltipoo Daisy was grabbed by a wild coyote that then vanished with the small dog, the singer wrote via Twitter Monday night.

Jessica Simpson has created posters with Daisy’s image offering a reward for the lost dog.

“My heart is broken because a coyote took my precious Daisy right in front of our eyes. HORROR!” she Tweeted.

She offered a reward? To who the coyotes?
I’m sorry about your dog, but lets be real here. That dog isn’t fighting off any coyotes.
They didn’t take the dog for the reward money… THEY TOOK HER FOR FOOD.

Schu-Review – Pumking – Southern Tier Imperial Ale

Beer, Life
The Pumking

The Pumking

I could smell this beer for an hour.

It reminds me of the pumpkin milkshake from McDonalds… and that is a good thing. There is a strong vanilla flavor that is topped with a solid taste of pumkin pie and finished with nutmeg and spice. The beer is thick, almost like milk which adds to the milkshake vibe. At 9% alchohol and in a 22 oz bottle it’s not something you (should) drink a lot of at one sitting. But I have to stop myself from drinking more than one at a sitting.

Laurel wasn’t so excited about this one. But I can’t get enough of it.

Yet again, Southern Tier, FOR THE WIN

Deer Fighting League

Life, Randomness

If I started a deer fighting league would that be illegal? Or immoral? What if it was only active during dear hunting season? In essence I could claim that I was using deer as the weapon to hunt other deers.

I’m sure PETA would protest, because they protest everything and want you to be vegan. “I’m a level 5 vegan, I don’t eat anything that casts a shadow”

So I just need to start training the cute deer in my yard to be vicious killers. I think I’m going to need some kind of secret lab hidden inside a volcano or something.
