Here’s a cool video for ya. Those who love laser pointers will love this! Featured is the S3 Spyder III Arctic Laser, which is a super laser pointer on steroids. Watch as it pops 100 balloons in a row with a nice domino effect. They used a magnifying lens to strengthen the laser, as well as Wicked Lasers’ “burning lens attachment” for extra power.



New Computer Build

new-computer-build

Hello everyone! Sorry for the lack of updates. Foose and I have been busy constructing my new computer build. This build will be used for future game design, so that we can play games render faster when making games for you all.

Thanks to Tony Stark Enki for selecting all these amazing parts and thanks Foose for helping me build this system. Without both of them, this wouldn’t of been possible. Also thanks to my girlfriend for being patient with me while I spent all this time talking about the parts I was ordering. <3 Don’t worry, you can play Sims 3 do work on it now.

Behold…. I call her Fuyutsuki. Fuyutsuki is japanese for “Winter Moon”. This is because during the winter time, the moon looks much more clear and beautiful. =) Anyways…



Cool Video: A Skydive From Space

When you’re up that high, it seems like you’re not falling at first! This is a video of Joseph Kittinger — first man to skydive from outer space using high altitude balloons. He went up to 102,800 feet (31,300 m) and accelerated up to 614 miles per hour (988 km/h).



Foose’s new phone: AT&T ‘s Huawei Impulse 4G

UPDATE:  I am sorry everyone, but I jumped on the Apple bandwagon and I am now the semi-proud/confused owner of an iPhone 5

Good morning.  I spent almost all yesterday figuring out how to work my new phone, the Impulse.  Its been a while since I’ve had a touch screen and a smart phone.  But after much time spent with it, I can finally write a review:

SUMMARY: By far one of the most interesting phones, and I’m in some position to make this call, since I went through about 11 phones while with Sprint (Only 1 survived intact)  The Android OS is definitely a new experience for me, a good one too.  The battery life is questionable, the background stuff uses a lot of juice, like the location services for example.  On that note, there is an app that displays each service that is consuming the most amount of battery, so you’ll know which ones to stop to save your battery.  Another cool feature is the Swype input feature, basically you “swipe” over the keys you want to enter, so if I wanted to type in “Skyline” I’d start at “S” and swipe my finger to “k” then to “y” then to “l”, etc etc and it’d come out as “skyline”

RECOMMENDED APPS:
What’s a phone without apps?  Well, after testing a good bunch of them, I personally recommend:
Flashlight by Nikolay Ananiev – A great app to turn your LED flash into a flashlight!  Or a strobe light, or whatever you feel!
Vlingo by Vlingo Corp. – Pretty much the Siri of the Andriod world.  Has an in-car mode, customizable spoken greeting, and is amazingly accurate voice detection!
