All about Memz

10. Vita Chambers - They revitalize you without any penalty. You get 50% Eve even though you’ve run out. Its basicly a free transport with a health care system. No point in losing anything on dying, its just like IRL.

9. Invisible walls - This is normally not a problem, but Ken Levine has been bitching about it for sooo long… “Total freedom to go wherever you want to!” Well I wanna jump down there and die - Why Ken? Why wont you just let me die?!

8. Too much Adam - Face it, there’s too much Adam. No point in saving up for something or really concentrate on a perticual branch of plasmids/hypos/whatever. Just get what you want, and switch back and forward. Which brings us to:

7. Nothing is absolute - Hey idiot. Dont like something? Change it! Nothing in this place is forever. Game would rule so much more if anything you did actually had a concequence. Misstakenly took a plasmid that makes your penis smaller? Sucks to be you. Live with it.

6. The Wrench owns - In the end, there’s just 1 weapon that’s good. The Wrench. It kills everything in a few hits, freezes and shocks opponents and whatnot. With all those plasmids and crap, youre a powerhouse.

5. The game is waaay to short - Remember back in the days? System Shock 2, Outcast, Baldurs gate, you were stuck with a game that took atleast fucking 30-40 hours if not more to complete the first time. Heck, first time I played KOTOR 1 it took me 14 hours before I even got the fucking lightsaber. And I enjoyed every minute of it. If youre crash free you can run through Bioshock the first time in about 7 hours.

4. The story - The story is almost a copy of the System Shock 2 story. Even before the game started I had a feeling the story was gonna be similar. And woop-ii-doo. It is. Nice guy is nice - evil guy is evil. Evil guy is dead - nice guy is evil. Evil guy dies. Althouh since this game is about a third as long as Bioshock we dont get to see everything through.

3. Securom and other BS - PC users get the shaft. Cannot install more than 5 times, cannot install on different computers more than 3 times. AVG identifies the root kit in the bioshock.exe and makes it unplayable. Even uninstallable (new word!) . I had to remove AVG before being able to install Bioshock.

2 . Consol players are idiots, so are PC users in ported games - One sentance “Please do not shut down your machine while quicksaving”

1. Ken Levines eyes are waaaay too close to each other. Looks freaky!

So, I made these crepes about two weeks ago and I’m just finally getting around to writing the post >.> Excuse the void I have left in the cooking section of this blog.

Now this isn’t an original recipe. I actually found it on the food network. Shut up, I love the food network. The full recipe can be found here, MMM… Now the recipe is fairly straight forward but I will add a few tips.

• Use 3/4 cups milk instead of 1/2. The thinner batter makes a thinner crepe.
• Cut the pineapple in slices close 1/8 inch thick. Actually who cares, just make ‘em thin.
• Be liberal with the heavy creme as you pour it around the crepe.
• In my humble opinion, get a more expensive ice cream and experiment with flavors. Butter Pecan FTW! (Unfortunately, I forgot it this time ’round.)
• Cook it to your own taste, a little crispier like mine on the left or caress it with love and tenderness like the one on the right.
• Finally, if you’re a pyro, like myself, you definitely want to finish your crepe off by pouring flaming rum on top of your crepe. Just don’t burn your kitchen down.

Unfortunately, I would have liked to use more pictures and blab on about the wonders of crepes. However, this being a blog requires one to limit one’s self to shorter blips Q_Q. See you around when I finally push myself to write another post or Memz bitches at me longing enough.

Nintendo controller bi-fold leather wallet. Inside flaps have photo and credit card storage. Comes with collector’s tin case.

Guess what I want for Christmas! The embedded video makes this look so awesome I can’t even qualify for words. The person’s face after getting zapped? Priceless. I can only hope that he was compensated justly for being shot at with electrified bullets while being videotaped.

He is being shot at with the brand new X-Rep, a self contained arrow-taser-bullet with a range of up to 100 feet. Popular Mechanics says “The XREP punctures the target with multiple probes, and then unspools to dangle from the unfortunate belligerent’s body, all the while applying Taser’s infamous rapid-fire electrical pulses. As an added bonus, any helpful passerby trying to yank the XREP out of the target before the 20-second discharge cycle is finished will also get zapped, thanks to a ‘hand-trap wire’ that’s nestled in among the other hanging cables.” So hot, those facial expressions should be rated NC-17.

At a time when most portable 2.5-in. USB drives are maxing out in the 160GB to 200GB range, Fujitsu decided to set it’s own amazing 300 GB platter to the task. Today it unveiled a 300 GB bus-powered external drive that should be in stores by September. It’s got a 16-point omnidirectional shock mounting plus an integrated USB 2.0 cable for easy access. The software suite includes Apricorn Inc.’s EZ Gig II for Windows backup-ware, Second Copy 2000 for file management and Cryptainer for encryption. Total cost of ownership? $229.

For those of you out there, like me, that aren’t coffee drinkers, get your warm tasty beverage fix with a nice cup of tea.

This is the new tea maker from Zarafina, retails at about $130.00 US

My favorite? Good ole green tea, it picks you up and makes a great antioxidant.

Win win situation!

Just a test post here to see if everything is working. I’ll be your new cooking and t3ch savant, making love to your pallet and mind O_o.

See ya around,

Samsung has a new line of plasma HDTVs out that do away with all the cables (aside from the power cord) and allow you to mount these up on your wall without any other component or cable clutter around it.

The 94 series televisions come with a receiver that will transfer the high-def video and audio signals wirelessly up to 200 feet via 802.11n direct to the TV in full 1080p resolution. The A/V connections on the remote receiver/transmitter box include 3 HDMI’s, 1 USB 2.0, 2 component connections, 2 video connections, 1 S-Video and a headphone jack. All these components can be connected and sitting in a cabinet in another room or in a media closet keeping your mounted plasma TV looking clean and simple.

What might be real cool is if you could have one receiver that could send the signal to multiple TV’s. Or, I wonder if you had two of these if they would interfere with each other; my guess is they would. Well, fortunately for me I won’t have to deal with that problem because just one of the 50-inch 94 Series wireless plasma’s will run $3,599 with a 58-inch coming in at $5,299.

Samsung expects to have these out in September of this year, but if you like the TV and don’t care about the wireless you can get the 84 Series versions that have all the same features sans the wireless, which run $2,999 for the 50 and $4,699 for the 58. They don’t specify if the WiFi receiver could be added on later but it would be worth asking if you want to pick one up before September.
