Holy Bible v.s Red Jordans LOL!

Today, I spent 4 hours going from Stony Brook to Brooklyn, back home for Chinese New Years. So I’m on the number 2 train at Atlantic Avenue going home when I hear these two guys arguing about religion. This was the most funniest thing I’ve seen in such a long time so hear me out!

One dude is a Haitian ex gang banger, drug dealer, weed smoker and the other is a member of the Bloods street gang. The Haitian man was walking through train cars at 1:30AM in the morning preaching about Jesus Christ, and the second guy [the blood] was standing at the doors. The Haitian man walks pass him and starts preaching, the second guy was like oh Jesus is garbage, stop BSing. At that point, they got into a heated argument.

Blood: How you tellin me your going to heaven after you did all this smoking week and gang banging?
Haitian: Because if you believe in Jesus, it will wipe away all your sins.
Blood: So your telling me if I go kill 1000 people and confess to Jesus then I will go to Heaven?
Haitian: Yes that’s right. This is my sword! [The Bible]
Blood: BS, it’s early, go to sleep, stop talking all this BS.
Haitian: Sleep is deaths cousin!
Blood: So your telling me you don’t sleep?
Haitian: Thats right.
Blood: Shut up, BS! You never sleep!?
Haitian: Never, I REST!
Blood: Hahahha
Haitian: Look at you, your ballin! Red Jordans!
Blood: Look at you, your balling, the Bible! HAHAHA
::: The man tries to give him a Jesus pamphlet. The dude rejects it.
Haitian: Your crazy, stop drinking. [Gets off the train]

OMG, this cracked me up! It was just the way they were speaking and the hand movements. The Haitian man was [talking like this] and the blood was a Jamaican [who talked like this MON]! :P

Stony Brook Ice Storm Aftermath

Woke up for class, I couldn’t even make it out of my quad without almost falling 5 times. All the roads were iced up. Stony Brook was so unprepared for this storm. Everywhere was iced up. Main roads were blocked and it sucked, I had to make so many detours to get to class. However, the trees looked hot, it was all covered in clear ice.

Some more pics from my Camera Phone:

I’m still trying to slide down Tabler Steps!! Heehehe! :)

HP Secret Back End Support Site

Did you really think HP Customer Service Representatives knows everything they tell you? Well this goes for all customer service representatives at any company, the fact is that they don’t know crap. They get all their instructions and information from a back-end website. All it really is, is a knowledge base they search though to troubleshoot problems. Besides, all they do is speak in a Indian accent which is annoying as hell! The funny thing is that they don’t admit that they are from India.

You can even do it yourself! Check it out here! Think twice before you call someone you think can help you, all they will do is waste your time. Your better off doing it yourself.

A Snow Day at Stony Brook University!

WOW!, I remember back in the day of Elementary School - High School. You would never find a snow day if you go to school in New York City because subway would be our way of transportation and since Subways ran underground, there was no excuse for not going to school but out here, we had only 1 inch of snow and the school announced “classes canceled after 2PM”. Here’s the email I got shortly after 1PM:

To All Students, Faculty, and Staff:

Due to the weather conditions, classes scheduled to start after 2 PM
today, Wednesday, February 14, have been canceled.

Please be aware that only Governor Spitzer can order State offices
and facilities to be closed. When classes are canceled, University
offices are still open and employees are expected to report to work.
If individual employees choose not to report to work because of
weather conditions, they must call in and charge their absence to
appropriate accruals with supervisory approval.

In the case of rapidly deteriorating weather conditions, which can
occur during the work day, an employee who wishes to leave early must
secure supervisory approval, and charge this time to appropriate
accruals.

Lynn M. Johnson
Director, Human Resource Services
Stony Brook University

God damn I was happy! I hope the same for tomorrow, especially when the snow gets all icy. Muhahaha! :P

Picture Update

All pictures were taken by my Motorola E815 Camera Phone. Sweet!

Cold & Slushy Valentines Day at Stony Brook

I woke up late for math class and cut it today as if that wasn’t already bad enough, I had to cut all my classes today. Why? Because of the long awaited winter weather. I was getting dressed and I took a glance out the window, all I saw was white slush. It had snowed overnight and suddenly started raining. [Snow + Rain = Slush -> Ice Overnight] Anyhow, I was walking to Sociology and a friend told me not to go. I didn’t listen but I soon came to realize that I should have taken his advice. By the time I got to ZebraPath, my feet was soaking wet with the feeling of ice cold needles poke every inch of my foot, c’mon y’all know that pain LOL!

Anyway, ths was the first time it snowed and stuck on the ground this winter at Stony Brook. Too bad it wasn’t that fluffy snow where we could have snow ball fights and stuff, that would have been fun especially with all the big open space we have in H-Quad. Sliding down Tabler Hills would be awsome but hopefully winter doesn’t end without that happening.

Last but not least, have a Happy Valentines Day! :P

Barack Obama Using The Web 2.0 Advantage

Barack Obama, democratic runner up for Presidency in 2008 has just recently launched his website. Now, I don’t care much for politics but I couldn’t help but to notice he used a lot of Web 2.0 services to help promote his campaign. He is using a series of social networking components on his website as well as multiple 3rd party sites such as Facebook and YouTube.

Now whoever building his site is taking full advantage of what the web offers today. Facebook, MySpace, FlickR, YouTube, Blogs, StreamingTV are all fabulous tools to spread the word about a campaign. So many people visit these sites that it’s almost hard to miss one of his ad impressions or pass his blog.

One impressive feature I saw on his website was the MY.BARACKOBAMA, where he allows supporters to 1) Create a Profile, 2) Find New Supporters, 3) Plan Events, 4) Network with Friends, 5) Fund-raise and 6) Starting a Personal Blog. All these will invite a user to stick around while promoting his campaign. Pretty impressive if you asked me.

He has all tiers of good online advertising covered! Advertising this way will reduce the cost of his campaign heavily and still have the same effect if not more of an effect on his campaign.

See it for yourself at BarackObama.com! Check out this same post on Barack’s blog!

Tangent Music!

Want A WiFi Phone? Might Wanna Think Twice

First Looks on PC Magazine for February 2007 features two great looking WiFi phones for Skype. They are just like little cell phones. The Belkin Wi-Fi phone and the Netgear WiFi phone are both costly and you’d need a bit of luck if your going to seriously rely on the product to work for you. The first limitation is the wifi network security. The wifi network has to be 100% unsecure with no browser authentication, this is really rare and hard to find if your on the road! 100% unsecure like that can only come from those network with the owners not knowing how to add some sort of security for it. If you want to use it at a public wifi area, their most likely to have some kind of browser authentication software.

The second limitation is that it ONLY works for Skype. After 2007, Skype to landlines were no longer free and you need to purchase Skype Credits. They are pretty affordable but just keep in mind that it isn’t free even though you have a wifi connection to use it on.

Well Where Can It Work?

Well, you can use it at home assuming you have network features like WEP and WPA off on your router. I really can’t think of anywhere else where they provide free unsecure wifi with no browser authentication. So make a list of locations where you plan to use it first and check with them to see if they have any type of security of their wifi before you go out and purchase a wifi phone.

Me?, I wouldn’t get it but one day, it will be HACKED! MUHAHA :P

How to Setup DC++ at Stony Brook University

DC++ announces the freedom to share! DC++ is an open source client for the Direct Connect network. Direct Connect allows you to share files over the Internet without restrictions or limits. The client is completely free of advertisements and has a nice, easy to use interface. Firewall and router support is integrated and it is easy and convenient to use functionality like multi-hub connections, auto-connections and resuming of downloads.

Step 1: Download DC++ at SourceForge here.

Step 2: Install DC++ - This should be easy and self explanatory.

Step 3: Run the setup file to begin installation. The installation consists of three main screens.

  1. License Agreement. Read the license, select the “I accept …” box and then click on Next.
    License Agreement
  2. Installation Options. This shows the components to be installed. It is highly recommended that you leave all the items selected. Click on “Next” to continue.
    Installation Options
  3. Installation Folder: The location where DC++ is to be installed. This can be left at the default. Click on “Install” to begin the installation.
    Installation Folder

Once the installation has completed, you may now run DC++ from the Start menu.

Step 4: There are a few basic settings that need to be entered before you can use DC++. Some are essential whereas others are not, but in my opinion make things easier in the long run.

Personal Information

Personal InformationLocation: Settings → Personal Information.

The only piece of information that is required here is Nick. This is the username you will use on DC++. This can be anything you want but avoid using characters that would be illegal in filenames, such as ‘*’ or ‘/’.

Entering a line speed is recommended. This value is the maximum upload speed of your Internet connection. For example, if you had a maximum of of 256kbps upload, you would pick 0.2 from the dropdown list, as this is the closest.

The other two fields, E-Mail and Description, are optional.

Connection Settings

Connection SettingsLocation: Settings → Connection Settings.

I highly recommend reading the Help file as it briefly explains what each of these settings means.

If you are behind a router or gateway, select “Firewall (passive, last resort)” initially. You can switch to a more appropriate setting later by referring to the “Configuring Active Mode” section.

If you are directly connected to the Internet then leave “Direct connection” selected.

If you are behind a SOCKS proxy, select SOCKS5 and enter the appropriate information.

If you unsure which applies to you, select “Firewall (passive, last resort)”.

Download Directories

Download DirectoriesLocation: Settings → Downloads → Directories.

Default Download Directory: Enter a folder where finished downloads should go. If left blank, it will default to a folder called Downloads in the main DC++ folder.

Unfinished Downloads Directory: Enter a folder where downloads should go while they are downloading. Once they have completed downloading, they will be moved to the folder specified above. If no folder is given here, it will default to a folder called Incomplete in the main DC++ folder.

Upload Slots

Upload Slots Location: Settings → Sharing → Upload Slots

File transfers in DC++ are based on slots. Each file being transferred takes up one slot. You need to open up a number of upload slots to gain access to hubs. The minimum needed will depend on the number of hubs you are connected to. Usually it is two slots per hub, though it will vary from hub to hub. Set it to 2 for the moment and remember to adjust it as you connect to more hubs.

Step 5: Connect to the Stony Brook DC++ server. (sbushare.no-ip.info)

Manual Address Entry

Manually Entering a Hub Address If you know the address of a hub (either an IP address or a domain name) then this can be manually entered by going to File → Quick Connect. Type the address and click OK to connect.

YOUR DONE!! AGAIN, NOT RECOMMENDED AND ILLEGAL. I DO NOT USE IT!

Chilling at NYC - Good Time Killer for Weekends

My friends and I were tired of the boring weekends here at Stony Brook, many people go home for the weekends because the city is so close by. This really sucks for the people who are staying because theres really nothing to do on this cold campus. Since I found out that tickets to the city via LIRR are only $6 - $9. We decided to go on a little getaway to New York City, my hometown. Both of my friends had never been to the city before so it was almost like a tour guide experience for me. We got off at Penn Station, went around Herald Square, my friend bought some things off the streets, then we went all the way up to the heights to my friends Oscars to get haircuts. We finally finished our day having dinner in Chinatown. Real chinese food isn’t like nasty Jasmines or CampusDelivery!

On our way back, we jacked some MTA advertisements for our dorm rooms! Sweet!

So if you’re bored on the weekends like most people are, take a inexpensive trip to the city and have FUN! For more information on the tickets, refer to my previous post.

Stony Brook to Penn Station Only $6 @ SAC

My friend just told me about this incredible deal that the SAC (Student Activity Center) has for traveling to New York City on the LIRR. A off-peak train ticket from Stony Brook to Penn Station usually cost $19 and more for peak hours but the school has then for only $6! The only restriction is that you can only purchase it once a week.

Want to get a ticket? Go to the SAC Box Office during their operating hours with your Student ID. I got mine today, this sure beats $19 for a round trip! A lot of people say I don’t go home much, well this is definatly an incentive for me to go home more often. Doesn’t mean I will :P, I don’t promise anything but this will push me a little more. :P
