Yo,
Just enjoying Sunday while the patriot movie is on tv. such a good one. has all kinds of awesomeness in the movie. the "civil" gentleman world and the real one. lmao. i still an't believe people would line up to fight. Just madness. Or the British leader saying "don't shoot the officers/leaders before the men so that they can order the troops better"
Lots of very sad parts in it tho. Gets me all teary eyed. The comercials are nice for being on the lappy here and watching tv. Sure would be nice to replace the 320gb i got /w a 2000gb for about 150 bucks. That'd make the thing worthy of being the media computer. Rather a monitor screen then a cable tv feed any day. Cable is nice for being auto play but pc is catching up in that regard. you tube also beats regular tv if yer up for moving around on it.
First website to bring video /w features and options for tv users will catch it. Gonna have to get another mouse pad. Already got a new mouse and that was good. I like the dark blue one b/c it doesn't get very dirty. White is horrible. Oils in the skin ruin it easily.
Good thing the world is mostly at peace. Man what a loss of life this movie gets into. It's also a shame militaries are turning to automation/machine to do the work. Read online about unmanned aerocraft's that can do lotsa damage. Just another step to computers going matrix style on us. The computer messing up is one thing, giving the computer 2 arms, legs, and the thought process to say no is kinda just asking to be 2nd on the food chain.
Then again a nice peaceful co-exsistance might work if we treat the robots nice enough. Little idealistic but that's the way I wanna see it go. Instead of matrix reverse engineering people you could have a more star trek approach (data/voyager's halo doctor come to mind).

District Palestine (9)
Ok,
Well this movie was awesome. So much so that it gave me the stomach turning on the medical scenes. That's as close to praise as I can give. usually the better the show the more it shows. Like House on tv. Can't really watch the surgery parts much.
The title is only a joke and not meant to offend but I really DID see the resemblance between the movie and Israel/Palestine (the "pretty human shelter camps"/concentration camp style they treat their fellow man).
Least the movie had the excuse that "they are evil aliens". Easier to say that when all 50 + 14 territories in N America are already together and not angry at each other tho.
Great movie. Worth going to see for anyone who likes awesome movies. That about sums up the general faith in our government and about corps in our world (selling out yer own son-in law for money kinda morals), not even MENTIONING the horrible tortures the corp is guilty of making.
The other part of it being that our society might have NEEDED to defend itself and that science is expensive in the worst ways. Then again what harm can a bunch of refugees do?
I thought the smarter thing would have been to treat them nice like Star Trek would have. Espicially with anyone more advanced. Unless yer gonna wipe them out from the get go it's best to not mistreat others.
That's my thoughts on this movie. Hopefully it will entise some to go see it if they haven't ye. Hope you can see my points if you have. :)

Drifting through thoughts, memories, and thinking of old friends
Well I've wanted a bit more chat time. The living room pc is down for the count till I can clean it up and fix a few things (like removing windows). Can't say I know enough to even do much on Ubuntu Linux but I never did much in Windows that can't be done here. I certainly love the trusted programs list from the add/remove programs in applications. Just fantastic.
Last night I downloaded a virtual box for the first time. Got stuck when I needed an iso so I tried the Ubuntu installer iso annd it worked alright. The idea of running an OS INSIDE an OS is pretty appealing.
Went on the Konversation program for irc chat and had a few channels open. Seems facebook has sucked the life from chat. I was chatting /w Candice and mentioned that today. Seems like by putting in all yer info on Facebook it prevents people chatting "/w evil strangers". I don't often add new people nor do I want all my pics available to the internet as a whole...
So it's nice to see the fragmentation of chatting online. Facebook is a great but it does have shortcommings from all the data mining they wanna do.

Still digging through Linux stuff...
Wanted to get bit torrent running on Ubuntu here. Azureus is running but I'm told Transmission works better on the system without advanced setup options. Well I've a download going and don't want to start over but I'm happy to give it a shot.
So I think I'll be more social online. I've often used the net for info, movie trailers, music samples, whatevers going. I DON'T chat or meet new people and that's kinda a shame I feel. Tons of people online but chat things like Facebook are for confirmed friends, people you already know enough about to call friends.
So I installed Konversation to get some help on irc and saw this french channel and was like "je taime la fraicais language"...where's that accentgu? lol. Gonna go chat on there /w people and learn more about linux, myself, the world, life.....LOL (just making shit up here now).
Maybe I'll even find people to VIEW my blog! Whoah now. Slow down, go chat damnit!

Ubuntu Switch, Goodbye Windows XP
Well I was moving my Twitter to another acct name (wanted freescv for a universal nick online) and saw "MSWindows" added me. Well or an account /w 40,000 followers and 40,000 following (me inc) I said "sure" and allowed them to view my tweets. I locked it out so not just anyone can read em. Nice that they'd inc that for an option.
Anyways it's kinda sad as I enjoy using Windows on my computer. My problem was that the c drive on the main pc is auto shared and I'm sick of reformatting and TRYING to keep it secure from malware people, NEEDING a firewall/antivirus/malware scanner.
The Ubuntu Linux asks for a password for installing software(s). Sure is nice feature so things aren't installing silently w/o my permission. I hope in the near future I can buy Microsoft Linux, built with a Linux kernal but with win 9x/nt support like wine does already (but polished so Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 will work nicely).
It's sad to see Windows XP Pro leave my new laptop here but I don't need Adobe software like my friend (who gave me this laptop) so the laptop is first to try it out, since I'm happy with all the nice features of Ubuntu Linux I won't be switching back.
I had a broken dvd drive on this laptop so installing from it was not an option. I read online how to put the .iso cd image file into a usb stick on the root/main folder of the usb drive.
Found the link: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-ubuntu-804-installation-from-windows/
It SAYS Ubuntu 8 but I successfully worked Ubuntu 9 with the 8 exe program. It makes the usb bootable and puts in .iso files into the drive.
Nice to boot to Ubuntu on a Windows computer to fix problems (tried that first) then after backing up the art data (.ai files can be big if you make lots of art) as my friend wanted to save the 40gb of art in case his fancy new tablet lost his data he'd have a backup. I'll burn it to dvd later but till then just securing it so I could properly format was the goal. ALWAYS back up yer data before a new OS.
Viruses and Windows often hold people at data hostage so best to either use a portable usb hard drive or partition your drive to a 20GB-50GB using a program like Partition Magic. That's a Windows program btw.
By putting your drive of 500GB as a 50GB C drive and 450GB D drive you can save everything nice to the D drive and just wipe the 50GB each time something goes horribly wrong and you need a new OS.
Windows could use a USB drive to boot from but they don't do that. Too busy trying to stop people from paying (and wanting customer data from the Windows activation forcing me to use a pirated version or use a corporate version w/o that bs in there and w/o my copy going offline after 30 days). All this to screw over customers vs a free Ubuntu Linux that doesn't ruin burnt cds trying to make a copy of the software.
I liked the Windows 98se Microsoft. Before they were idiots and making customers fork over their name, address, phone # so they can sell it to partners AND if they are using Windows to secure it then whomever wants to hack that database of customer information could in turn prmote fraud. It's just better business to not even collect such valuable information. Too valuable to keep on ANY computer, let alone an unsecure Windows computer.
...oh and to get my security updates I no longer need to prove my ubuntu is genuine. I've got the original Windows XP Home cd AND the Windows XP Pro cd /w holographic sides so it IS genuine yet they've forced my hand to go and get some corporate version for me people's computer's I've fixed so they don't NEED that genuine thing. If it was only a cd key then fine, unique key to prevent multi use, I understand that, it's the name, addy, and phone that's none of their business and I don't enjoy telemarketers using it (or anyone who has vested interest in that data that WON'T ask permission to TAKE IT from their Windows servers, prob also /w C drive shared, lol)
Ubuntu features after install before I hit add/remove programs (1000+ programs to install /w one simple install click):
-Mozilla Firefox web browser works right away
-Wireless and wired internet works right away
-laptop sound, video, and touch pad drivers works right away
-start menu is at the top of sccreen (options can mirrior Windows)
-Audacious has a winamp looking skin (windows refugee) so I got music while I sort through this new system (that was in add/remove programs tho, also needed mp3 codec it autodownloaded to understand mp3 formats)
-open office's word and excell (both free) and installed right away
I downloaded from the add/remove programs:
(recomended)
-VLC media player for movies
-Audacious Music player
-uTorrent wasn't there so Vuze (formally Azureus) for download .torrent files (download files from websites like www.mininova.org, www.piratebay.org or www.torrentreactor.net, also nicer ones like www.demonoid.com)
That's got me going quite well here for everyday use while knowing I'm more secure then unsupported Windows XP (trying to force people to downgrade to the newer Windows Vista or Windows 7). I don't want a gatekeeper blocking updates for IMPORTANT security updates. Simple as that Windows.
The reason I mention that is Windows 98 didn't have that genuine shit and the patches went along decently.
So until Microsoft Windows Distro for Linux I'll keep what I got w/o all the messy problems backend techs should just be fixing.
Also Linux has MANY different versions:

Hope this information finds you well. :)

Politics in Canada, Fall election...
Hey,
Well we have Conservatives and Liberals like America has Democrats and Rebublicans. Our Conservatives BARELY have the majority vote and were currently in a "minority government" meaning nothing really gets done b/c the leading party needs to get along and work WITH the "enemy"/opposition parties to get th policies voted on for our bills/upcoming laws.
I'm voting Liberal this fall as our new Prime Minister to be, Michael Ignatieff, will challenge our current leader, Steven Harper, to an election, one that Steven says is not what Canadians wanted. Funny, I was never asked. :P
If you aren't sure which party to vote for I recomend the "Red Team" (Liberals) this fall for federal election. I went down to a local Liberal meeting last Friday night. Mr. Ignatieff showed up and Sukh Dalliwal was also there, the local Surrey BC Liberal rep.
Big issues as a Canadian citizen for me include:
-Lumber going south to America w/o the work of processing them into boards, meaning the taxable hours of the worker are either Canadian workers or American workers, which city gets that guy's pay cheque, which government gets the taxes towards it's country? Currently the Conservatives are too eager to please their American masters to care for their elected Canadians who are ALSO looking for good family supporting jobs. A bribe from down south ain't worth the taxes collected from the forrests of British Columbia (unless you can't steal the public tax money and the private bribes are only a briefcase click away).
(but to be fair, it's just speculation on the bribe part, I only HOPE they are taking the bribes for his sake! w/o them he's merely a fool looking "up" the the wrong boss....supposed to be your voters!)
-Lack of public voice in politics and lack of public broadcast of CPAC (the parliament chhannel) for everyone. First off, this channel could be used for a GOOD Spike tv alternative. I doubt everyone wants 12 hours/day of CSI (could be wrong tho). Moving our politics to a bit torrent online episodes would be nice. On top of showing what's going on in Ottawa from coast to coast, I'd like to see more online discussion, votes, and comments www.slashdot.org style. If Canada can adopt a slashdot framework we'd be far better off then, our, .....??? Oh ya, they don't want to HEAR the people they are SUPPOSED to represent. It slows down polluting businesses from wrecking the environment for pursuit of resources.
I'd love to see votable dollars, say 20% of taxes the citizen generates go towards the choice of THAT citizen, record the vote online for others to see (w/o personal info online, just their vote choice for stats Canada). This could stop corporate fraud as the business man often knows better then a group of corrupt beurocrats wasting the other 80% as per usual. NOW we'd be able to see where all the taxes go, vote on how much they put it where we wouldn't/didn't, and elect someone who votes alongside fellow Canadians (or defends their position saying all citizens voted their 20% to education so they had to fill in the gaps /w some of the 80%, least it's a REAL voice for honest voting tax payers.)
Voting online for people who care should be priority also. It's nice to vote some guy in who promises to change things but I'd like to see what society votes for. Great example here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_C-61_(39th_Canadian_Parliament,_2nd_Session)
"Bill C-61, An Act to amend the Copyright Act, was a bill tabled in 2008 during the second session of the 39th Canadian Parliament by Minister of Industry Jim Prentice. The bill died on the order paper when the 39th Parliament was dissolved prematurely and an election was called by the Governor General Michaëlle Jean at Prime Minister Stephen Harper's request on September 7, 2008.[1] The Conservative Party of Canada promised in its 2008 election platform to re-introduce a bill containing the content of C-61 if re-elected.[2]"
So Steven Harper wants to re-introduce this American copywrong bill against the wishes of the majority of Canadian wishes/lifestyles. I still believe they deserve a vote as they were elected but it's akin to the paper trail for voting and how it prevents (some) fraud at election time. By knowing how many votes are counted and whom everyone votes for we know they deserve to be there, well collecting real time, online, Canadian Linux servers /w open source software AND techs paid by our Canadian government to secure tthe system(s) we could have a REAL voice alongside our ministers of parliament.
What's the point of gathering all this public info about how our citizens would want proposed laws/bills to go into law we can see how close/far our referee's are from the Canadian players on the ice. In a sense, they can be guided on new laws and have a good idea of how Canadians want THEIR system to run.
So, to me, it's the same as "open Source Government", I got help from a friend setting up www.opensourceg.com for such ideas to gather but I'm no coder and couldn't secure the vote(s) of Canadians so any polls WOULD be rigged by hackers /w agendas (prob paid by corps for profit, usually the case, even lobbyists as America is infected with atm).
Anyone who wants to help set something like that up is welcome to contact me and we'll get her going. One great thing is this idea doesn't NEED to be "voted into law" just to vote alongside politicians. It's perfecty legal and long as there is a link saying "votes are for stats only and can be rigged to support ANY side" it should be fine.
But when 95% of Canadians don't want to be sued like Americans nor do they want their Internet cut off for downloading songs, then our politicians put such laws into play neglecting our opinions and voices, they need to be called on their bull shit FOR the Canadian way of life to be progressive, not regressive like our southern brothers (collage kids being sued for downloading songs is unrealistic, espicially since it's not 1 dollar per song too!)
The RIAA/MPAA music/movies copywrong groups represent companies like Sony, Warner Brothers and the like to protect their works. Understandable but then you get stuff like this:
http://torrentfreak.com/sony-music-office-raided-090907/
Basically says Sony had released an artist's work without permission. The Latin artist had to call the police on Sony to get the cd album (6000 of them) back. You can BET that THEY aen't going to be sued for 200,000 per album EXACTLY LIKE THEY DO to people who infringe "THEIR" works... ;)
So it's a shame that corporations of under 10 people (Sony execs for example, the rest of the workers have no REAL say), these 10 people can control MILLIONS by buying themselves whatever laws they wish. 10 people, 30,000,000 Canadians or 304,059,724 Americans (July 2008 stat).
THIS is why we need voice in our own politics. Why vote for someone to pretend to vote in your corner when you can do that AND vote your OWN VOTE online and THEN see how far off they are from Canadian/American/World citizens voices (like 95% against our wishes...lol)
Some political things on my mind, enjoy. :D

Some political things on my mind, enjoy. :D
1st Post in blog :)
Switched over my twitter to /freescv and started this one up. Can do links to longer article length posts here. Damn 140chars limit. grrrrr. haha
Got a nice backround on twitter. Found 2 nice scv pics I'll use for profile pics. I always liked building towns better then attacking bases in Starcraft. Otherwise it'd be free marine. Gotta respect the marines still but 1 scv can quickly build a comand center, make unlimited scv's from that, and start building barracks for marines and the like. As for them not being useful in battle they can repair bunkers under fire for nearly infinite hit points. More damage equals a few more scv's to heal the bunker faster, or tanks, turrets, etc. Fast repairs then Zerg /w auto healing but the micro management is way more /w Terrans.
As for the attack on the enemy base, SCV's are useful for building offensive turrets to provide tank cover from air units. If yer going in hot and fast I recomend 4-6 scv units to ALL build turrets. Matched nicely with 6-12 tanks, 2-3 groups of marines and medics and you've a good chance of just pushing THROUGH their defenses, even with tons of carriers or guardians.
Start turrets outside of their line of sight then keep up the turrets everywhere and start building them closer and closer to their defensive line, offensive bunkers are nice too but /w moving air units the moving marines are nice to draw in enemies. Force them to pull back their guys or lose em to turrets/marines.
All round good worker. Figured since I've pitched garbage for the city for 2 years, scv kinda works well. (extra cans/bags moved easily /w beer under the lid on the bags btw)
WOOO! 1st post!
