The Life of Shaииoи

I’m sure as most of you may know I am a Computer Technician, and have been a Computer Technician since basically the time I left school. I’ve seen alot of things inside Computers, There is however one thing that above all other things the has to be most Disgusting that I have found inside a Computer:

Cockroaches, The little tiny ones.

They like to get inside Power Supply’s and Nest in the warmth. Now you see once there in the PSU theres really not much you can do it will eventually die, leaving behind a distinctive stink, not your standard fried electronics smell but a much worse one, in extreme cases I’ve seen Computers covered from top to bottom with Cockroach crap, and crispy fried critters, with a smell that could make you throw up from the other side of the room.

Now a savvy Customer will get the problem once take some advice and deal with it, but when not dealt with swiftly it can become costly, very costly. Having to replace a Power Supply every time the buggers get in there can end up costing more than the computer is actually worth in the end. One case I’ve replaced the power supply in a computer about 8 times… You would think that this person would think there is something wrong there wouldn’t you?

So in closing, omfg people get rid of them I’m the poor sucker that has to clean em out of your computers. Take My advice when we give it to you! I don’t just say it for the sheer hell of it!

Today I FINALLY picked up a DSLR Camera, and after 4 months of waiting and saving its finally mine! I ended up picking the Canon EOS400D with 18-55mm and 75-300mm Twin Lens kit and a 2GB SanDisk Extreme III CF Card, all for a nice round price . I’m looking forward to taking it out and getting some snaps tomorrow and also to improving my Photography Skills over time.

I’ll have some Snaps up in the near future (when I get some time to get my head around everything and some spare time! >.<).

Since that little prick at the phone shop never bothered to call me about my K750i, I went out and got a K800i. I’m really looking forward to taking some pictures with its 3.2mp Camera . I should have an update on my K750i tomorrow, If not I’m not going to be to happy.

One of the wonders of being a Computer Tech is cleaning the unholy amounts of Crap that people install onto there machines. I mean seriously how can anyone think that this many toolbars is a good thing?

Lets see what we have here:

Zango? MyWebSearch? When will people learn? Not to mention the machine was so clogged with spyware it could not even connect to the internet. Come on people, use your common sense. I mean these things are like contracting STD’s for your computer…

Well as much as I dislike TPG lately, they gave us a free upgrade to ADSL 2, for 10bucks cheaper than what we were paying with an additional 5GB on our Download cap. (Taking it to 30GB.)(I’m sure theres some catch but I don’t pay for it so thats Mum’s problem.)

Our average connection speed is around about 5Mbps according to OzSpeedTest with a average Download speed of 600Kbps. (Based on the 15MB file test, which I ran 5 times at various times of the day using the TPG Mirror). I managed to download the C&C 3 Demo (from the Internode Games Network, 1.2GB) in just over 30minutes at an average speed of 580Kbps which was a pleasant surprise.

I know in my previous post I said we would probably go with Internode, but well I found out we can’t so I’ll have live with this for a little while longer, ah wells as long as it stays connected like its supposed to I’ll be happy.

Well enough rambling I’m gonna see how long it takes me to download 30GB worth of crap.

I know it’s not as exciting as a Wii but I finally got a DS Lite :D, In Black too :D. Isn’t it just sexy, Pictures :D:

Mario 64 DS and New Mario here I come :P.

Browsing [H]ard|OCP A few minutes ago I stumbled across this news post.

Some artists took a bunch of donated computers and created a giant computer artwork entitled “Mauritian Sunset“, Which was made for the “Great Artspectations” exhibition at The Embassy Gallery in Edinburgh. Pretty amazing :D.

Now the inner geek in me is just loving this :D, its definitely worth a few minutes to head over to the Website dedicated to the Artwork and check it out!
