Souq Al-Mubarkeya pictures…

Ali, Bader, Dragos and myself planned today to have Kabab in there so I knew I’d want to snap photos of that place…

Unfortunately, I’ve only snapped some photos after we’re done eating so I didn’t get much good photos…

I’m probably gonna do that in the near future… Till then, enjoy the pictures:

Don’t worry if your kid has imaginary friend… He’s developing faster

Oh boy, That explains ALOT of stuff :P

A study in Sydney suggests that imaginary friends usually benefits kids because, statistically (With few exceptions ofcourse), %65 of the children have one till they reach 8 years old…

And those who does has better communication skills and can do harder and more complex tasks than other kids…

So, stop laughing at those kids because, well, they might end up being your manager :P

OMGWTFBBQ!!! MICHAEL JACKSON IS ATTACKING GOOGLE!!!

Funny how a dead person could cause such chaos :P

Google thought that searching Michael Jackson death related thingies was an attack on their servers considering the time it’s initialized and an exact sentences used for that search thingy…

I don’t want to be insensitive (And if you think I am, don’t read this post)… But this is funny, we have ALOT of stuff to worry and go sad’n'mad about (Atleast the National Assembly of Kuwait future)… Yet we cry over a pedophile’s death…

He even caused more damage than Steve Irwin’s death (Someone who explored and brought scientific benefits to this planet rather than pop music)

Good like this…

Go go Owens couple!!

I know I’m a cheap bastard sometimes, but this is awesome!!! (Could be used for my own argumentative benefits :P )

The couple bought iTunes gift cards thinking that songs cost 99¢, but the songs price actually varies from 69¢ to $1.29

The charges are the following:
* Breach of contract
* Violating the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act
* Violating the Consumer Protection Statutes

Now, Microsoft might be ripping wallets (The Zune subscription offers free 10 songs to own each month and access to their millions of songs for $14.99… It’s fair, I think), but they don’t lure and fraud…

If the couple wins, I’ll laugh my hairy sweaty ass out!! :P

NetBook + ThumbDrives = NetBooks with Windows7!?

This is something I wanted to do lo~ong time ago; installing an OS from a bootable thumb drive…

Well, Microsoft acknowledged the need to install Windows7 on NetBooks since NetBooks comes without CD\DVD drives…

Things aren’t finalized yet, but it’s on the work (I hope they get it done and start shipping it)…

I’ve installed Xubuntu on a flash drive (So does my friend) and I know how awesome it is to run Linux from a flash drive… Even though it shortens the flash drive’s life, it’s a FUN HACK (And very useful too)!!

I personally prefer installing things from USB drives than optical drives for two reasons:
* I don’t have to worry about scratches
* I don’t have to worry about it’s annoying physical size
