Amazon Wants to Watch Your Order

JoeVaughn — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 00:07:41 +0000

Amazon is looking to start filming the preparation and packaging of the products you buy. They want to make sure your order put together perfectly. The video, or frames from the vidoe will be e-mailed to you so you can see the progress. The strange thing about this is Amazon filed a patent yesterday for this type of service. No one really knows the reason for the patent, as it is a good idea, and will be copied like Episode I. “Insiders” speculate that its going to hard for Amazon to stop others from copying this idea, as a way for people make sure there getting what they ordered. My own take on this is that Amazons advertisers want to make sure every flyer of crap you would never want gets into that box, so you have more stuff to fill the land fill.

So I’ll keep my words brief. I must have been dead these last 2 weeks to let these little gems slip through my image banks. Its Adrianne Curry at Wizard World Convention. I would tell you who she is dressed like, but if I have to – well as James would say I’d have to stab a person in their neck. Enjoy.

So most of you have been seeing this site being half done, or different everytime you stopped by to catch some news. We’ll its done. Although the archives don’t work. Go figure, your not interested in the past, but the future anyways. So here is the new sight and I spent about 15 hours total getting it to look the way it does. I just thought it could use an updated look as we grow. So as the new posts goes up from here on out. I thought I’d show a video from the past, while we say hello to the future. Hi future…

Intel is being sued by the EU…

JoeVaughn — Wed, 13 May 2009 19:35:24 +0000

Big news does not equal big surprises. The EU is back at it again. This time they’ve hit close to home. The European Union has imposed its largest fine ever again a company. This time its Intel. A 1.45 Billion dollars suit has been filed against the computer chip maker over anti trust issues. The EU is saying Intel has made strides to have an unfair advantage over AMD and other chip makers. Bullocks. I say.

The EU claims a lot against Intel. Such as they let computer makers give rebates on their computers with Intel chips so long as they don’t with other chips (mostly AMD). Also that there unethical practices have been going on for well over a decade and they let computer manufacturers buy out the majority of certain chips so they have the exclusive on Intel’s newest chip. So what if Apple bought out most of the Xeon processors. Maybe someone else should have fronted the money first. If this has been going on forever and everyone knew about it how is that anti-trust?

I say its all bullocks and the EU should actual sue over something that matters. People still love the AMD chips which are usual cheaper and I’ve heard work just as good. So I’m not sure what the big deal is. Although Intel did corner the netbook market with its Atom chip, but every computer company has access to the chip. Look at the specs on all the netbooks. There basically the same across the board for every computer manufacturer. I’m on my netbook right now. If Intel didn’t make the chip I would not have bought one. Leopard doesn’t on other processors. Although I mostly just use Linux on it. So I bite my thumb at the EU. Yes I did bite my thumb at thee and scream stop suing for anti-trust issues that are neither anti nor trust. The battle rages on…

Control for the universe continues...

ImaginFashion…

I think Kanye West will own the first pair.

So I build Lego toys (mostly Star Wars). What do I have to show for it. We’ll a happy 5 year old that I mentor. Other than that nothing. Do I mind. Of course not, gotta keep my padawan in the know with the freshest SW toys. Lego has taken it one step further. They stepped up to the fashion plate, and it looks like they hit a home run. Now kids can build there own sunglasses. Which I think is important, because of the whole UV thing and the eyes. I won’t go into the scientific explanation of the UV effects on the eyes, but needless to say it damaging. Most kids don’t like sunglasses, I’m hopefully now they will. They can design the glasses them selves. It looks like they can do what ever they want to them. Lego got together with Lynx Optique outta France, and came up with a design where the kids can put what ever kind of Lego blocks on the sides of the glasses. I have a feeling I’ll be making some Star Wars one for the little guy.

On a more serious note, I’m looking for a pair of 80′s Cazel’s. If you gotta pair or a spare pair lying around please drop me an e-mail (joe@mlgeeknews.com) and we’ll talk… Thanks.

Scotland Fuzz embraces The Force…

Scotland's Police Patrolling the Beat.

Eight police officers serving with Scotland’s largest force listed their official religion as Jedi in voluntary diversity forms, it has emerged.

Strathclyde Police said the officers and two of its civilian staff claimed to follow the faith, which features in the Star Wars movies.

The details were obtained in a Freedom of Information request by Jane’s Police Review.

Strathclyde was the only force in the UK to admit it had Jedi officers.

In the Star Wars films, Jedi Knights such as Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda use the Force to battle the evil Darth Vader, who has strayed to the dark side.

Jane’s Police Review editor Chris Herbert, who requested the information, said: “The Force appears to be strong in Strathclyde Police with their Jedi police officers and staff.

“Far from living a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, some members of the noble Jedi order have now chosen Glasgow and its surrounding streets as their home.”

Provided voluntarily

A spokeswoman for Strathclyde Police confirmed: “At the time of the request, 10 (eight police officers and two police staff) had recorded their religion as Jedi.”

She added that the force monitored “six strands of diversity” – age, disability, gender, race, religion and belief, and sexual orientation.

The force said the information was provided voluntarily and securely stored.

About 390,000 people listed their religion as Jedi in the 2001 Census for England and Wales. In Scotland the figure was a reported 14,000.

The Office for National Statistics did not recognize it as a separate category, and incorporated followers of Jedi with atheists.

Last year, brothers Barney and Daniel Jones founded the UK Church of the Jedi – which offered sermons on the Force, light saber training, and meditation techniques.

Strathclyde Police employs 8,200 police officers and 2,800 civilian staff.

Rifftrax is Awesome…

JoeVaughn — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 05:11:32 +0000

Wow i dont remember Luke looking so youthful...

The one and only Chad Vader joins Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett in the latest Rifftrax Star Wars spoof of The Empire Strikes Back. See below for the description from Rifftrax.com and click here to download the fun filled track for $3.99.

“Your favorite sand-phobic, midichlorian-rich super villain is back! And this time his capes are even more fabulous, his thigh-high Uggs resplendent like never before, and his burnt chicken head cloaked in the shiniest plastic helmet yet! And if that wasn’t enough, Mike, Kevin and Bill are pleased to be joined by Darth Vader’s bellicose but lovable brother Chad! Yes, the movie that gave us one of cinema’s most startling revelations, and perhaps the most memorable silver screen quote ever (“I thought that hairy beast would be the end of me”) gets the RiffTrax treatment.

Lots of laughs. Lots of Chad Vader. And no pod racing.

This RiffTrax uses the Special Edition version of the film. If you have it on DVD, you have the right version.”

Rifftrax are good if you can import the audio over the original audio track. Keep the movie audio at about half, rifftrax at full, and put on your iPhone. Perfect for a date. Because you’ll be on it by yourself.

Eee Keyboard is Freakin’ Awesome…
