Rodo Abad

I logged in today to my Gmail account and I saw a pop-up…something about Google Buzz or whatever. At first I thought it’s just another of those social-network stuff or Twitter-like web apps. Part of me was right but part of me was wrong too…Google Buzz is better! Waaay better! Why? Because I can integrate any website I can (as long as Google recognizes it). I integrated my posts on JoinPGN.com and my post on my blog (this blog!). How awesome is that! As soon as I hit “Publish” in Wordpress, I’ll see this post on my Google Buzz.

That’s right. WERD.

God damn! My HIS 4870 just died on me and I can’t fax the RMA form since it’s Sunday right now and I can only do it on a specific day! Gah. I hope HIS gives me a working one a.s.a.p. since I need my desktop to review games. Sigh…I’m posting on my netbook right now.

Here’s another error I encountered (I forgot where and when). The problem was that I had the x86_64 or 64 bit version. I fixed it by installing the i386 or 32 bit version as well.

[root@leaf01 ~]# yum install libgcc
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit

Ooooh yeah baby. Look at my first run, it was a measly .78 miles. I’m doing a constant 5 miles now and the current improvement that I want to do is to make my pacing better. AAAAAUUUUUGGGGGAAAAA. I just want to run guys…that’s all I want to do now on my spare time. Parties? Get out of here. Slacking? Not a chance. Beer? No way. Smoking? Hell no. Drugs? Are you kidding me? I can safely say that I’m slowly getting there.

I am not a runner…yet. I will be in a couple of months.

I got a free license for O&O’s Defrag 10 Pro last year and I intend to use it! I’ve always had this perception that for Vista…’home users’ shouldn’t worry too much about fragmentation since Vista does a good job about it. Here’s O&O’s 1st test.

2010! I’ll be 27 years old! Happy new year!

Merry Christmas everyone! God bless everyone!

Yes, it took me 10 years to move on from Counter-Strike 1.6 and Counter-Strike: Condition Zero to Counter-Strike: Source. Why? Because even though I have CSS on one of my older Steam accounts (2003) and I don’t really like using it. Why?! Why don’t I like using an older account and hence having a ultra low SteamID as compared to today’s higher SteamIDs? Well I don’t like the username I used on that one, hahaha. Yes that’s the only reason. Plus most of the newer games that I’ve bought are on my slightly older account (2006). I like TF2 and CSS to belong to one account (Probably another reason for my OCD of some sort). So yes my folks! It’s time for me to move on…

That’s right pirate scums! I’m a proud legit FRAPS owner! Wuhoo! I finally bought FRAPS once I saw that it can record your desktop. That means no more 3rd party apps, it’s just FRAPS now! You know how awesome that is? That means I could make a ton of tutorials now if I want. I’m $37 poorer now though, but still! Go me!

Have you guys noticed lately that Google has a ‘new effect’ when you go to http://www.google.com/? The old homepage simply displays all links as fast as possible or upon load but this time…it feels web 2.0’sh. I like!

Looks like I’m not the only one with uploading problems right now in YouTube. And damn! I have a ton of new gameplay videos to upload for PGN! Maybe it has something to do with YouTube’s new 1080p feature. All I can say is…finally! At least I don’t have to resize the videos now and this gives me that extra “reasoning” to buy a new monitor, hehehe.

Thanks to bbranigin from [H] I was able to get in Google’s new web service called Google Wave! I’m so excited to test this new web service from Google since I find myself moving more and more to the cloud from both Microsoft and Google.

Wuhoo! 40 years now! That’s 14 years older than me! Happy birthday Internet! Only a geek and nerd would know!

The ‘dude’!

This has got to be one of the cutest and coolest (can those be combined) way of inviting people to your child’s baptism (Roman Catholic).

I’m happy to say that when you type “rodo a” in Google.com, it’ll show you “rodo abad” as a search tip!

Yep, it’s my Fall break and I have four days to party to finish my missed home works, projects, research et. al. and that sucks! I mean it doesn’t suck because I’m doing them, what sucks is because I’ve always been a procrastinator. 1st day of Fall break…I cleaned my room and re-arranged some stuff.

For the record, my Phenom II desktop PC only has 250GB of HDD space and for the past 2 years I just download/delete whatever I can instead of just downloading it and keeping it forever (if it’s worth it). Moreover, since I now use a wired keyboard and mouse (G15/G5) I have two extra freaking wires dangling over my computer table (which just got fixed by the way). Since I have OCD and I hate wires, I bought a Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 7-port USB Hub. Sigh…now I’m $150+ poorer. Dang it! But at least my room looks better right?

My computer table’s keyboard/mouse drawer has been broken for almost a year now. I mean it’s not totally broken wherein you can’t use it. But the wood that’s supposed to hold the drawer is loose and sometimes it derails the drawer and you know what’s next…the keyboard/mouse falls down. I was going to strap two metal L-shape supports for it but then it’ll look ugly right? I mean here I am again…trying to make something look pretty even though I won’t be looking at it 24/7. But still! I mean, you guys understand me right? The people that have OCD right? Right? I found a solution and (4 hours later) it’s still holding like a champ.
