you know college is not exactly what I imagined it… even though I am going to a Bible Seminary. That right off the bat tells you that it’s not the typical college. I enjoy my classes and I love my teachers, but I want some people my age to befriend. ya know? and at my church it’s a new church starting up. My twin sister and myself are the only people our age… Oh and work! I work as a part time custodian and the only woman that works on staff with us has to be close to her 50s… There are two other dudes around my age that work there but I want someone my age! that shares some common interests. Someone I can hang with outside of my “life”. Someone I can hang out in my free time. Ya, So college is not anything what I was expecting. lol
HD-DVD is dead!
•February 25, 2008 • Leave a CommentNHK which is a major news-casting system in Japan, has released information that the company “Toshiba” is halting its production of HD-DVD players. This is the final stake in the heart of HD-DVD. Blu-ray will finally become the dominant high-def format. Paramount and Universal are coming out of their exclusive contracts with HD-DVD and will be switching to Blu-ray.With Blu-ray actually winning is this a good thing? Well with Blu-ray we can fit a lot more information onto the disc, up to 50 gigs! The only problem is we might run into a problem with older Blu-ray players not having the ability to play newer movies due to copy protection…. In order to play the newer movies we would be required to either plug our Blu-ray players into our internet and download a firmware update or download the update on our computer and burn it into a disc. Either way this seems to be a major pain and I wonder if a lot of people will be confused why their movies are not playing. I mean how many people will think, “Hey my movie is not playing because of copy protection”.This information can be found from the following sources…
