 Err I'm alive, I just don't really post much on this account no more. I wanted to keep my accounts seperate, from reviewing to personal life, but it looks like that can't be done. Oh well. Good news, I finally got the full time job and I'm happy!

If you're looking for me, its here. I just don't want too really look back at the sad past. So this account will be updated once in a while. But most of my updates happen there.

You Tube Rant

Hmm
 Ok when You Tube first came out I wasn't really impressed with it, since I really never used it much, after using it more to do research on some stuff and watch stuff down memory lane I started to like it like a little bit more. It was fun watching odd stuff form Bleach or anime or even old school cartoon's. You Tube was doing great and you could do a lot of research on the shows before you buy them. Then came the greedy a holes who basically ruined You Tube into the crap it has turned into now a days.

Yes I fully understand the copyright laws and mumbo jumbo. You're never going to get away with that stuff. I guess it like the state law they wanted in Wisconsin, to put a tax on the radio stations only for playing any song. Because they are "illegally" not following copyright and they aren't making any money off the radio. Blah, blah, blah I forgot what happened with that, but it was about the records company not making money. 

Too me, I have 0 problems with opening sequences and closing sequences of any show on You Tube. Or even a quick clip less then 3 minutes long of the said show. As long as you don't have the full episode up, unless it is the company WHO owns the licensing puts it up. Since they have full right to do that. The thing that makes me mad, is now a days companies are not even allowing the opening sequence (or closing sequence) or any RANDOM fan made clip of said show. All I can say to that, GROW THE HECK UP, YOU DAMN COMPANIES! Not everyone just watches there TV shows on the internet.

I know I'm a huge anime fan, so I can tell if I'll like an anime by the opening. I refuse to watch stuff by streaming because of my net. But having an opening and closing sequence is a good way to do research on almost any show. Now a lot of videos are being mirrored, making it almost impossible to watch.

Now I was bored yesterday and trying to show my friend how the US even toned down there flashyness in there shows after a certain seizure incident he talked about, that was hard to since I was watching TV or something. And the next thing I found now is they are disabling the audio of the said opening. I mean COME ON IT WAS JUST THE OPENING. It just took the fun out of You Tube. 

Yes I know companies lose out on money, but, they are never going to get it back as long as the internet exists.  I guess the term "Free Us" is an dead saying now a days. Heck even a song on a VIDEO you make doing stupid stuff can have this happen, just because you are using it. What's next they are going to start blocking sound of people doing karaoke of said song? Or people wearing costume they made, since said company isn't making any money off it?

All in all, You Tube went from a great place, that DID break some laws. Yeah I agree with some the stuff, but there's a limit to how stupid you can make it. Like selling out to Google and making it even more crappy layout. The PS3 version is laggy as hell if you move your joystick. You Tube was great like Simpsons was back in the early 90s. Then it went straight to the crapper, never again to see the light of day of being "good" anymore. 

I'm sure glad I live in a world where almost everything you own is illegal and it is almost getting to the point where it is illegal to be alive. It would help if the companies would see the real world, instead I want to make my $45 million profit. You Tube was great because it was free, now its chained up. Then now they are region locking stuff, I can see some of it, but if they are going to that. Why not make a separate You Tube that no one outside that country can view. 

Man I miss the old days when You Tube you could watch anything without trouble. Now your have stuff blocked just because they don't want you to do research on there products so you get stuck with there crap. Or mirrored version that make you want to rip out your eyes. To even muted a said song in the OP because your not paying to listening to it. Too making a bad layout that it looks like my kid niece made it. Oh well, if all keeps up, You Tube will die a horrible death. Since everything will be banned.

I 'm still alive, just busy watching my anime. Yeah I really have no life yet outside of work. However, I'm going to another anime con again so I guess that is about all that I can update.

Rukia Haha I'll Come Back And Beat You U
Geez I hate it when DVD's don't play right and they just skip. Had that problem all day, and it makes me just mad.

But it LOOKS so cute!
Yeah I'm still around, just been busy with anime and something related to anime. With real life stuff sort of interrupting it. Other then that, thinking more about my life in general in ways to improve it. 

Sakura Wars V

Saber Yeah
I've never had to struggle that much before in a fight in an RPG game. Well OK not for a while. That was a hard challenge to beat it, at least they let me save after it so that makes me happy. I'd say that would rank about 7th highest in any battle I've done. However it got too easy once I figured out what to do. Thus the reason for the drop.

I just hate it when networks change there schedule randomly each week. It gets hard to know when the show is on. Mainly when it's a night show right before your bed time. Oh well, at least I have a recorder to record so I can watch tomorrow I'm tired. Oh well this is my weekly update too.

Otakon 2010

FORGIVE ME
Simply put I'm going to Otakon again this year. That's all, this year will be with one more person. Other then that still working, and I will try to update this once a week. I have one for reviews, but not much people care about that so ha.
