Help them help us (the internet) STOP SOPA AND PIPA!!!
Jan 18th
From the Desk of Google (and others):
Tell Congress: Don’t censor the Web
Fighting online piracy is important. The most effective way to shut down pirate websites is through targeted legislation that cuts off their funding. There’s no need to make American social networks, blogs and search engines censor the Internet or undermine the existing laws that have enabled the Web to thrive, creating millions of U.S. jobs.
Too much is at stake – please vote NO on PIPA and SOPA.
SIGN THE PETITION HERE!

End of the World Day (website)
Jun 3rd
With so many religions and public figures predicting the end of the world (since the beginning of time), we here at the site thought it would only be appropriate to pick a day once a year where we can all just simply sit back and enjoy the end of the world together.
Starting NOW! The end of the world day will be the second Saturday in August (in 2011, that is August 13th), and will be celebrated each August until the end actually does occur. And possibly even after. Why not?

Endoftheworldday.com is all about embracing the end of the world – and why not? It happens so often, we thought “why not make it a regular holiday?!”
So we did.
So, from this year until FOREVER, End of the World Day will be the second Saturday in August.
So check out www.endoftheworldday.com for all your apocalyptic needs.
at&t goes in for the kill: buying T-Mobile.

Oh great. Just what I needed – to make another decision. I have been reading some blogs and replies to posts, and the greatest replies are the FuTards asking when they can buy an iPhone. BUY ONE WHENEVER YOU WANT. I understand this is good for at&t for a larger LTE footprint, and of course, T-Mobile is in the shitsink, but it does come as a surprise, I guess. I would have liked a merger with Sprint more. Their philosophy is more aligned with one another. So, I guess this means a bill-hike and a rules change. It also means I will likely be able to terminate my contract with T-Mobile. at some point. Sprint seems like the next best options – even though I left them over a decade ago for Omnipoint (who would eventually become VoiceStream, then bought by T-Mobile).
Great. Sprint. Until Verizon buys them.

Everyone has an opinion.

I have owned GODMODE.COM now for over a decade (that is 10 years in hexicopter speak). Since then, I have pretty much klet let is sit and collect various microbes of stuff I enjoy reading. Tech stuff like cellphones, or satellite, PC stuff, modding, overclocking, whatever.
Where I work now, most of the people CANNOT believe I own all of these GODMODE domains. It is a gaming cult sort of term (Google it, boytch). I used to have gaming cheats on it, game links, and whatever link sharing was available in 1998.
Now, as time goes on, I am trying to do something else with it. I have some ideas but welcome input fro others. In the upper-left are links to the old 8 year forum of tech stuff you can read. I will always have that because there is a lot of nostalgia in the old tech posts.
So, if you have any ideas, want to write or be an author, let me know. No jokers – unless you are funny. Now, GFYS.

4G. Is it better? Do we care?
Aug 5th
Wow. 4G bla bla speeds are coming. What does it mean? In the immortal words of some asssholes on Facebook – I bet I can find 1 million people who don’t know the friggin difference.
So what is better? A Next Generation wireless network that’s really fast! Or! A last generation network that is pretty damn fast for what I need. And it likely wont have a surcharge.
I am all for innovation, really. But, there is a chance that most people won’t care. And those who do? Most of them won’t know why.
Just give me a mobile OS that works on a network with 99.98% up-time Just like those asshat website providers who lease their servers from some other asshole.
Just make it work “better’er”.
