I’m a PC by Seth

Filed under: Tech

No, this ad is not by Apple.

I must say it’s quite a good commercial that directly goes against Apple’s Get a Mac ads. As much of an Apple fanboy I am, I think that Apple’s commercials aren’t really effective. Justin Long as Mac looks smug while John Hodgman as PC is endearing and likeable.

Nevertheless, despite what Microsoft says, Eva Longoria Parker is too sexy to not be a Mac. (And, if life is without walls, who needs Windows?)

My old iPhone by Seth

Filed under: Daily

After spending a few weeks with both pockets filled with an iPhone each, I finally passed my old iPhone to my dad, who has been eyeing mine hungrily ever since I got the latest one.

He has been using it obsessively for the past few days, constantly asking me how to make use of the different functions, and he seems to be having a lot of fun playing around with the phone. I haven’t seen him like that before. In his words, the iPhone is “sibei 好玩”.

How Anti-Piracy Screws Over People Who Buy PC Games by Seth

Filed under: Tech

Expletives-laden and definitely not safe for work.

The same is true for people who buy legit music CDs and DVDs for their own personal use. Why the hell am I forced to watch a stupid FBI warning message not to pirate the damn DVD when I bought/rented it with my money?

And apparently ripping music off CDs to put into one’s own digital audio players is a no-go. Someone emailed IPOS (POS standing for, you know) a few years back about the matter and the answer was that it is indeed illegal. I just emailed the same question to the RIAS. RIAS is the local counterpart of the demonic RIAA of the US.
