PS3, BLU Rays, Lawsuits and no hacking.

Alright, here's an introduction. I own a PS3, yes I bought it from my brother 2 years ago. I've played it 3 times probably. Though, I KNOW I have used it for playing Blu Ray Disks...  Alright, a lot of you probably already know this, but I figured I'd help someone else out if I could. Apparently*** I have played blue ray disk before on my ps3, but the issue is that, the new blu ray disk, will require an update for the PS3 and also all Blu Ray players from what I understand... This too sucks, basically because I bought the PS3 to play Blu ray disk. So why don't I just download the patch? Well, if I do, it'll render my PS3's Other OS option useless, or rather it won't be there anymore.

Which is sad, I really wanted to use the Other OS to play around with the multicore technology, in fact at one time I wanted to build a mini super computer MUHAHAHA.. ahem. So I decided against watching the movie on my PS3, thanks Sony, let me know how that LawSuit works out for you: Link to Filed Lawsuit via IGN

So anyway, at that point in time I became frustrated with the whole thing that I felt like I should devote hours and hours upon figuring out how to use the Blu Ray DISK on my ps3, aside from hacking it. I am refering to the Other OS feature. Though knowing Sony, you'd still have to hack it to get the updated codes I image, which I don't recommend. Why, well basically this came to me in the night, I was laying down and it hit me, why waste my time on this? Seriously, time is important, trying to fix something small like this in exchange for huge amounts of time to figure it out, forget it. For starters, I don't watch Blu ray disk that often... second I was more irritated than anything, right now I don't even care. Though I have decided to boycott sony when ever I can ;). It's probably gonna be a work in progress.

Finally my point, if not clear, is to focus on important things, whether your at home or work. There's always things that'll jump in your face and become distractions, but to prevent your-self from becoming unproductive at the end of the week, its important to get perspective and then stay focused. I can't recall how many times I just latched onto one idea, and then realized after so much time that more thought should of been put into IT.

Hello World

I figured this would be a good starting point for a blog title. This blog will contain varied bits of information that I find helpful in my daily programming task or otherwise just fun and ad-musing.

So a little about myself. This is my first blog, ever, or at least the only that matters ;). I work for a software company, we make software. Though I do not plan to discuss more about that topic, I want to focus on helpful general hints, besides, when I blog I am not working so its my time.

My interest are computer games, drawing and reading. I am only decent at playing computer games...
Aside from that, I am very interested in AI, WebGL, OpenGL(computer graphics), and multi-core programming.

So basically, following my interest I'd like to post progress on projects I am working on and hopefully help others in the process.
