addicted to technology

after a lab xam dat was pushd right in2 my face outta da blue things are quietely settling bak in2 place. Not that it would hv made a difference if i knew the lab dates earlier, but i had 2 run a bit to get my records certified(lessons supposedly learned--always get rcrds outta da way as fast as u can). Guys from our class decided to get together at the pooapura ground for a football game. I fully discovered why they say spending 12+ hrs in front of a computer aint gud for health. Was almost dead abt 15 mins into play. To be honest i was a "liability" to poor asb's team. He was screamin desperately for a pass each time the ball got near me. But i was too busy dodgin kenny(who strtd to scream while runnin towards me) to notice da ball:D. Decided that mayb i should step outta my glass walled abode once in a while. The lab exam question was kinda simple and got the needed output in abt half hour. But viva went kinda bad. Id rather focus on the gud part here and let the viva go2 hell(repeats to myself.."i got da output"). Been readin a loot lately on conroe and AMD's reply and similair topics. Think im tkin a likin 2 hardware:D(reverently chants......om biosbhai namaha!)....recent activities on the comp..... scrapped norton internet security for the second time.....now using netlimiter pro and its firewall with NOD 32 as AV. really liked Netlimiter pro..shws everythin u wannw knw about programs accessin the net from ur comp....along with very nifty features like a built in whois query tool..its more than what i need:D.....then wat else......oh yeah..switchd to da new yahoo mail beta..........interface luks really gud....really likd da one-click preview feature and strangeky.it loads faster for me than the old yahoo mail.....
Heres a snapshot of the new yahoo mail beta. Notice the one click preview pane at the bottom. Got dspm lab xams comin up. As usual...need 2 get the records certified:D....catch ya all later

half way thru..........

holidays over.............back to my favorite past time of sleepin thru lectures:D Beginning of s5 marks half time in the illustrious journey thry B.Tech. And my frquency of bloggin went down durin the holidays(thinking).

The 1 month dat passed was borin to a gr8 xtent. Anythin worth recallin...ummmmm(thinkin .....there was the party at moush's house, indu's b'day, me and asb visitin biosbhai's house(finally got to meet the lord of the bios^:)^ ), frag matches with auster and dj(^:)^@kickasso, try harder@dj:P..just kiddin dude).

And oh yeah.me xperimentin with USB boot resultin in 40gigs of clean NTFS secondary memory:-< . It all strtd on a peaceful afternoon with my new pack of ubuntu cd's arrivin by mail. I was like.......hmmmmmm 64-bit editionof ubuntu(thinkin) mayb ill install dat...(1337 3go t4k!n 0v3r) and b the proud owner of the only 64-bit OS in class(high hopes!!)...the version was the latest(code named "Dapper drake").. i knew that theres nothin 4 me 2 gain from instllin a 64-bit OS .but still ...Without further hesitation i pop in the cd .....a decent lukin menu arrives...i chose to boot....cpl of lines show up and then suddenly "Wat da hell!!".screen shws attempt to kill init...init sync fail....and da screen freezes...back 2 gud old xp and i googled for the prob.got some vague ideas that it might b related 2 acpi and some guy was hvin the same prob with Athlon 64. I boot usin the cd instd of bootin normally added an xtra option acpi=off..and hurray!!..it boots from the cd....another strange thing..watever resolution i choose while bootin the OS still loads in 640x480 which was a prob since the install program window was too big for the screen.but that was solved when i pluggd in my USD HDD..now default resolution was 1280x720.....dont ask how:-??.......Now i run the install program..after passin thru whole load of crap like "regional settings" i finally come to the partitioning section and.WTF.it refuses to acknowledge the existence of my SATA drive.but my USB drive does show up..phrases like "USB boot" race through my mind...i weigh my options.hmmmmm.......i got 10gigs of free space in dat drive........mayb ill partition 6gigs and install ubuntu on that.and i instruct it 2 do so...then it shws some error and program closes.i giv up...back to gud old xp..after abt an hr...i pull up my computer and notice somethin strange. my USB drive is pluggd in.but it aint there.it did show up in windows disk managment.and partition magic said file system was bad.....dammit!!...along with vaporizin my 64-bit dreams ubuntu had also f***ed up my USB drive....33 movies, knight rider, my entire star wars collection...all gone...finally fox tld me 2 delete the partition and reformat it, thnx 2 him i got the drive back in working condition..... anyways xp rulzz for the moment.
