05:33 pm - The continuing Saga of my (more than likely) Dead PC....... Insanity is repeating the process over and over again and expecting a different result. This has been my day so far while dealing with Big Black (That's the name I ever so lovingly gave my lovely PC many moons ago). Things looked up early on the day, but just kept heading downhill. I'm about to smash the fucking thing. I'm still pretty sure that the video card is the issue, but without a spare to run some tests, I can't say "Yah" or "Nah". Lovely loud beeping noises now fill the air when I try to boot the fucking thing up....... So I grabbed an old PC that I was trying to set up next to the TV as a video & music player and also use as a file server. All was going well with it apart from the fact that I couldn't configure the resolution correctly on the TV. It's am old school (chunky) 16:9 widescreen bastard. I reconfigured it to output to regular moniter and it's now sitting where Big Black used to sit. It'll have to do to serve my purposes until I can do something about the video card. Might give the guy who put it together for me to run some tests. He stills owes me a few favours and he'll have spare parts lying around. Currently PC has half the CPU speed, half the memory and about a quarter of the Video memory of Big Black. It used to run WoW for my ex, so it should still be able to do the job. Plus it's recently been formatted, so it should run OK. Plus it has SATA ports on the Motherboard so I should be able to stick the Hard Drives from Big Black in it. Only thing worse than not having a PC is not having access to all that music you store on your PC!!!!! Time to power down this puppy and start pulling PCs apart.............. GAH! I'm annoyed!!!!!!

08:58 pm - The Gene Generation I just finished watching The Gene Generation. Like Repo, it was one of those films that I had found out about while they were shooting and was excited about seeing. To be perfectly honest I was very disappointed. The script was crap and "typcial". The CGI that was overlaid over the real action shots were done poorly (especially the blood and shadows). There seem to be a lot of holes that they try to cover. I think they may have found that a lot of footage was unusable when they got to the editting room. Niether that or they just didn't have the money to afford the time in the editting room. I know that the film was plagued with financial difficulties towards the end and they were even asking for donations to get the film finished. Also add to it the fact that I felt over half the soundtrack was Combichrist. I like Combichrist, but there are other acts that would have worked just as well at those moments in the film. Perhaps once again this was a case of $$$ and Combichrist being generious in donating their music or perhaps the filmmakers just overdid it on the Combichrist factor because their popular on the scene. It's not all bad though. Some of the shots were very nice. The concept was also very good, but just executed poorly. Rather disappointing. I think that I still would have been this disappointed with the film even if I was completely, mindnumbingly, horrendously stoned. Normally that makes these things easier to handle....... Still haven't watched Repo. Jo downloaded it for me when Jason posted the torrent link. I just hope that I'm not as disappointed with Repo as I was with The Gene Generation........ Think I should also try to find Daywatch and grab that. Have seen the DVD about a few times but just didn't have the cash to grab it, nor will I have the cash for a while. If I have leftover cash that I could spend on a DVD, I'll spend it on booze instead!!!! Priorities. HT Current Mood: disappointed
