Dear ___Upset Gun Owners_____,

Where the hell have you been?
Didn’t you notice the groups out there fighting for years to salvage
freedom in this “land of the free”? That’s not even scratching the
surface of the rest of the world. Now it’s finally affecting you
personally, and holy shit!

I’d be happy to summarize the past 12 years for you if you’re finally interested. Which, again is just scratching the surface of the other 500 years of American corruption. Or do your own research…and NOT from the American “news” channels! I think you can still trust Google (**subject to change).

Google – Start with the Patriot act and NDAA. This gives the feds full right to silence the opposition with force (btw, you are currently the opposition). Also, if you care about freedom of speech, and want to be able to voice your opinions, keep googling; SOPA, PIPA, CISPA, etc. Once those bills become law, you may not be posting so freely on Facebook.

Let’s be honest, when this “democratic government” decides to take your guns, there is not a damn thing you can do about it. It’s too late. And good luck “not going down without a fight”… Have you seen their military that you’ve bought for them, and maybe even volunteered for? I’m pretty sure the number of automatic weapons and amount of ammo you own is irrelevant.

To be honest, I have been waiting for this “wake up America” for a long time. I just hope this is the real one, and not just another hot topic that will be forgotten next month when there’s new “Breaking News”. I hope they send the secret police door to door for this one. So far they’ve been smart and sneaky, destroying the constitution in moderation. This one actually caught some attention.
Lets hope it works.

Sincerely,
Another Upset ___American______


 

Cool things to do with your Android phone.

So, now that you’ve got the best phone on the market, how do you use it????

This is not necessarily a how to for any of these things. It is just a list of super cool things that can be done with your phone with a little time & effort… and a lot of google searching.

Install Apps

Open the market application and search

Check Email from multiple accounts

Install K-9 Mail

Watch live TV

You would need to purchase a Slingbox

You also need the SlingPlayer app for Android

Play Poker

Full Tilt offers Rush Poker app for Android

You need to change your application settings to “Allow applications from unknown sources”

Scan Barcodes

Install Barcode Scanner

Listen to your MP3 collection

Install GMote on your desktop and phone

Open ports on your firewall 8889 & 9901 to your computer

 

Listen to other music

Install Pandora Radio and create a free account

Run Windows

This is a bit tricky, but well worth the trouble.

You need to have a computer at home running at least Windows XP professional

You must “Allow Remote Desktop connections” from your computer.

Open port 3389 on your firewall

Sign up for a free DynDNS.org account

Configure your computer to update that account with your current IP address

Install Remote Desktop on Android ($19.95)

Connect to your dyndns address

Live webcam backgrounds

Change your background automatically with various world webcams

Install WorldTour

Listen to the news

Install Scanner Radio

Cancel phone service.

Seriously… it’s possible. But I wouldn’t recommend it YET.

You can actually use the droid to make and receive calls with a local phone # of your choice.

AFAIK, there is only one true way to do this

  1. Sign up for Google Voice.
    1. Create your phone number, and add your Gizmo number as a forwarded phone.
  2. Install GrooveIP
    1. Configure this to use your Google Voice account
  3. Connect to WiFi and make some VOIP calls
    1. Phone calls are placed through your Google Voice account. I believe US calls are free, and international are about .02/minute.
    2. I believe incoming calls are free
    3. **You DO need an internet connection of some sort. It can be a data only plan, or WiFi
  4. Ask yourself WHY do I pay $60/month for cell phone service.

Backup your apps

Install Titanium Backup


 

My First Post

So, I have finally decided to start a blog, and Google (blogger.com) seemed like a logical place to host it.
I don’t have much to say at the moment, so I’ll start by offering some links to my electronic world.

My Website
Facebook
MySpace  (Wow! they have changed a lot recently)

Twitter
My Blog  (You are here)

There you have it. I am a computer geek, and poker player, so 99% of this blog will probably be about these topics since they consume 99% of my life.  I started this blog just for a place to share some of my life experiences for the world to learn from.
