THE OPERATING SYSTEMS
I am typing this out using a mobile phone...a new mobile phone! Ooh I like it already...it does not go too mad when I add three dots to simulate a pause.
It has a swipe keyboard too I did not expect!
That is because its a Windows Phone!
However there is no official Blogger App though and in using one called MyBlogger.
I have also hit a snag as I now have the same problem I had compiling hotmail emails...the screen does not scroll down correctly after awhile. As you can see very early on too?
I now did this bizarre as its only happened with Microsoft software and happened twice!
It could be bad coding by the MyBlogger developers?
Also I did not like the two fields presented to me as they should have read 'Title' and 'Main Body' and the field to the latter should be been more than just a single line. I was initially confused.
Good God this scrolling problem is extremely annoying and no one with more than sixty characters to say could use this...they must think Blogger is like Twitter?! Err, no.
I saw this phone while I was checking out Windows Phones for a friend as his screen has cracked on his old Lumia 630, I think the model is?
Now this one might sound like a much lower model in specs, being the Lumia 535, yet I could but believe that its quad core and a screen that's way bigger and brighter than my Moto G first generation and bigger tag the second generation too.
I think they bought this out because of the Moto G and though at 150 odd quid it is still cheap this thing was £60! It's thin and feels fragile but as I wanted to get away from Android altogether I thought it would be cheap enough to have and see how it goes?
Though if I can't get decent Apps to write out posts for my various blogs it will be useless anyway.
However I am surprised at how well Cortana works and if I can dictate posts using the phone and then paste then over this in itself will be invaluable!
I will try this out a few times in the coming days, provided that I don't receive a call to head to the other end of the country by a legal team that is! Lol.
I have asked that they let me know what they want of me and to give me fair warning so I can make arrangements oh now it won't scroll up at all?!

GOOGLE'S GOGGLES GLASSED

THE TOOLS AT HAND AT GOOGLE
Odd that this has popped up at this moment in time due to what I am doing? My Blogger App, which is coded by Google to work on Google's Operating System, Android, is back to playing up yet again. One of the things that I did hope would be solved upon acquiring the tablet back from PC World? Fat chance of that but then I doubted this at any rate because it also occurs on my Moto G phone.
So two smart devices of tablet and phone with one being the Advent VEGA Tegra Note 7 Tablet and the other being the Moto G smartphone and both with the exact same version of Android on them and both having the exact same issues.
Unfortunately Google cannot escape because despite this being software specific they own both forms of software with both the Blogger App and the Android Operating System. It is one or 'tother.
Oddly I havve not heard anything about this issue in the media and normally anything to do with Google being innovative, greedy and sinister or just plain incompetent the news networks are normally all over it!
At the end of the day I have two completely different devices but with the exaxt same software and both playing up in certain areas. Ergo I cannot be the only one and there must be thousands with the same issue currently?
I will do a quick search on the INternet in a moment and see, something I have not done thus far.
I also see they are still handing out billions of pounds for ever more company and this one being the company that can film Earth from a satellite to even show moving vehicles on roads. To be honest when I forst heard about this company I did think that Google would show an interest.
I should code something out of the ordinary, something that would grab news headlines as Google will come along and give me $3 Billion and I can then go and help people worthy of help!
I find it odd that they have such conflicting facts about themselves in the media that all these business people seem to have failed to pick up on?
1 - Buy lots of Companies
2 - Make Billions in advertising
3 - Announced there adverts are ... WELL SHITE basically and they did not need to tel me that as I have them on my blogs!
4 - However they are still buying companies despite their advertising being crap?!
5 - Other companies seem to get fined and into trouble for infringements that Google have made?!
Conflicting and contradictory is it not? That is how these annoucements have appeared to me and in all honesty I fond it amazing that no one has commented on this in the media.
This reminds me I have not looked at my earnings with them in awhile now, chances I am about to get the smallest measley payment when I need it most? NONE, no doubt?!
LOL.
Hmm £27.99 so no not even close, lol. Even if this figure is supposed to grow faster and faster as time goes on and the weekly visitors continue to rise! This does not include my YouTube account by the way which is probably still on zero, wait let me check?
Yup after over 43, 000 visits and 4,793 minutes watched I have made the grand total of ZERO?! LMAO! Out of 1,179 videos too.
It gets better because if you recall, unless your fairly new, I stated that their maths was way out and that they could not count? Well they have actually just admitted this themselves and have announced it and have actually GUESSED how much they have undercounted?!
Unbelievable? Well take a gander ...

WHEN TEMPERS FRAY

THE QUIET FRONTS
A report has come out that Google are really crap with their advertising?!
This explains a great deal, though in some contradiction to an earlier report not long ago stating they made $3.8 BILLION in advertising?!
Well not only would this explain a great deal about why I have a humungous amount of visitors becoming ever higher each week but would also then leave to very interesting questions for Google to answer ...
- If your so crap why is it that you refuse to speak to any bloggers until they are receiving the minimum payment?!
- This would then suggest that as your adverts are CRAP, as stated, then a blogger has to be extremely good and I would wager hitting the half a million visitors mark before you pull your thumbs out of your arses?!
- You have therefore wasted 20 months of MY TIME and I cannot help but wonder just how much time and how many people's time you have wasted?!
- Is that why Android has become crap, or at least some of your included software is?! I.E Quickoffice for a start!
- The idea of buying companies is to capture people, ergo customers, not to then ruin something and drive them to your competition?!
The funny thing is that no matter how many times this has been highlighted in the last 5 years the system and this process is still being run and above all else and far more importantly these FAT-CATS actually expact things to just continue on?!
I suppose with the millions that they get they can afford to buy a house that is a mile from their 20 foot tall surrounding wall, a thousand cameras and 500 motion sensors linked to target seeking shotguns?!
LMAO!!!
Now I am wondering if things had been different had I approached the affiliates first and left Google and their Adsense alone?! Unfortunately for Google I can see this coming back to bite them in the arse so I do hope they have some money left?!
You see I have been hearing and reading about groups of people who have 'had enough' and several big names I have read are or have been taken to court! Of these Sony are one over their appalling attitude, greed and PS3 updates and another is Microsoft over their rigging of a certain Operating System they expect you to pay very high prices for not working in certain situations and LYING to its users?!
And to think, Google want to make Androids?! Umm I mean ROBOTS!
I mean robots going against their prime directives?! Didn't they make several movies about this?! LOL!

THE FREEDOM OF TIME CONSUMING INFORMATION
Well I thought I would do a little update on the Freedom of Information requests I sent off prior to Christmas 2013.
I had two in the last couple of days and despite getting an email tonight from an Ombudsman which has something to do with Pensions, I think it was, they have yet to provide the information so must have been in the last salvo I fired off?
I still have to find the time to sort them, spreadsheet them and post them! This is how difficult it can be to do things for myself! This blog and all my others are to help me as well as others but it can be hard sometimes doing this and this is s direct result of my Fibromyalgia. Still better late than never, eh?!
Added to this frustration is the fact that my tablet PC is doing a new trick!
I had a barrage of emails from solicitors or agents for solicitors. Some of these stated they tried to ring me but no answer, some said I did not provide a phone number and some said that they could not help under a no win no fee case. I do not want to answer the phone to people who have not done their homework beforehand and that their colleagues and supervisors are not familiar with either?!
So I made a break down report of the evidence I have posted on here, the evidence I have NOT posted on here and the fact that these are people in PUBLIC POSITIONS we are taking about that I recorded and not private people.
I also stated that without Legal Aid for Clinical Negligence that what I have done is the only option available and that to refuse my option was practically criminal, meaning Doctors could and probably have gotten away with murder?!
Harold Shipman ring any bells?! Lol!
However while typing a rely to emails the on screen keyboard kept disappearing?!
Now due to my hatred of Google due to realising their true nature they do not even now try to hide it would be easy for me to bang on about them?! But this only happens in hotmail and in all honesty if there is one thing that I know about Microsoft is that they refuse to play fair with others and often refuse to play at all!!
No question marks in that sentence on my YouTube account is proof where I film myself trying to dual boot Ubuntu, a pile of crap at the time, and Windows 7. Windows refused to see a completely formatted drive and stated it was not suitable. I had a feeling that I could actually prove that the most expensive consumer class operating system on the planet was actually programmed to lie to me?!
I set up a camera on me and my laptop. Tried to install Windows and site the message of it refusing to do so stating there was no drive available. Then while still filming I unplug the drive that I had just installed Ubuntu on and then tried to install Windows into the same drive it stated was not suitable! Hey presto!! It body worked!! Lol!!

THE DUMB OPERATING SYSTEMS
I think I am going to walk away from Google's Android Operating System. It just seems to be slowly becoming a horrible place to be!
As some of you know I bought three Advent Tegra Note 7 Tablet PC Computers. One for me and two on behalf of friends as presents for their two girls. Well I already had to replace one of the two given for a new one which were given out as Christmas presents and now I have the second one in my home and I will be exchanging it when I return it tomorrow?!
Starting to wonder now when my one will give up the ghost?!
But regardless of this nor peering on my mind I am having other issues!
Google Play has gone from being interesting and exciting to browse to a pain in the arse I really am getting more and more feed up with using!!!
First of all there are an absolute myriad of shit on their and I do mean shit! I have list count of the number of things I have downloaded that do not work, nothing like their description and died not do what it says on the tin!! Then there are the fecking games that are just plain greedy and preying on that gaming urge that is a primary instinct in us all! In app purchases is what I am getting at!
That is of course after all the utter shite you click on because the picture looks cool, mainly suggesting a first person shooter with console class graphics, only to see the screenshots and think ' what the FECK is this shit, it looks like the old days of 8 BIT gaming?!'
Of course yeah that is why I searched for something with an nVidia Tegra 4 processor so that I can play 1980s games and gear up the planet with all the wasted extra power?! Lol!.
I also got a an App Shifter and that is what it is actually called, unless your looking at it on Google Play then it's called something fecking else entirely. I moved a few dozen apps including some big games. Only lately I have been clicking in things and being told it is not installed?!
This happened with an app I bought, OfficeSuite Pro, because Quick Office is now crap because Google got ahold of it and I paid a tenner fit that too!! Only I have just realised that my documents in this app are NOT BEING SAVED TO GOOGLE DRIVE?!
For the love of a fecking GOD!!
Then tonight I realised that my new game I was playing of GT RACING 2 (real racing it states) had also give missing?! I then opened App Shifter only to click on SD Card apps to see just TWO!! TWENTY TWO would be closer!!
Then there is the game itself, ever since I bought something IN-APP things went downhill... FAST!!
I ended up with a Toyota GT85 II. Only straight away I was having difficulties and found that I had to drift to stand any chance of going around a bend and stating competitive with race leaders!! I thought that maybe some upgrades would since this. This was also because other cars were rounding bends perfectly level and without drifting! I ended up maxing the upgrades to the car without realising and things remained the same. Also despite being maxed out I was being offered upgrades before each race?!
Also I was seemingly spinning out each time someone touched me which was not happening to them and added to this they were never spinning out. Then there is the old positions remain the same syndrome within the race energy your the only one ever doing any overtaking or even being overtaken?!
Another common thing is never getting higher than 8th after several attempts on one track and then getting first in the next race at the first go?!
Some tracks feels as if my tyres are manufactured using ice while others not quite so bad. Maybe cardboard, lol.
The last updated, like the other two, have made absolutely no fecking difference to Android and added to this the swipe keyboard is still substituting words whereby you got it spot on but it offers you not only the WRONG WORD but often not even one that starts with the same letter?! You know the...letter...that... you... touched... on... first... which... you... would... not... make... a... mistake with!!!
If your going to scree up the coding at least get the wetting word that starts with the correct letter for Christ sakes?!
If I was Eric Schmidt and I had some Android OS as a business solution I would be crapping my pants right about now!!
So I am getting extremely feed up with Google and Android.
Only the alternatives are crap!
Sorry Apple I know you would like many to think that your system is great but that it's not doing well because the rest of the world is voting and infringing, but no!
I simply never realised just how bland the iOS was until I had a few weeks to mess around with one. Also I hate iTunes as it is also bland and on Windows it is good awful slow! Mac OS is much better as an OS to look at and use!
Maybe Jason Bradbury was not plugging Microsoft's Surface 2 dye to sponsorship?
But then where Google and Android have a problem with being far too laid back and open Microsoft are the polar opposite and doggedly sticking to their closed system which would not be that bad if not for preventing a number of other people coding browsers for their system!
My mate had the options of IE and UC?! No Safari, Dolphin, Chrome, Firefox or any others either.
So one choice is far too bland and boring added to way over expensive in Apple.
Another is far too awkward, butt ugly and closed system with not many apps or choices with Microsoft.
Lastly you have far too many choices, too unstable, far too many so issues and lazy or incompetent coding with Google.
Now what annoys me is that any one of these could read this and realise that they could alter their system to stand head and shoulders above the other two?!
However I will wager that they won't!
Or maybe one of the many others I have been hearing about will rise like a Phoenix from the flames and keep above the other two?!
If it is the latter paragraph I got they then do not just become the fourth arsewipe in a long list of arsewipes?! If it is greedy shareholders that come along then suddenly decide that they know better than the inventors... well get them to read this oust and I will tell them to shut the feck up and go back and crawl under the rich from whence they came!
In the meantime I can only hope that things improve and I suspect now that it just might be the big 'M' as they are already working to replace the travesty that was Windows 8, with Windows 9 of whatever it ends up being called?

THE KINGS OF THE HILLS
Today was a day of revelations for Microsoft.
First off I had a friend visit in the morning who has previous problems with his PS3 whereby an update from Sony contained an algorithm to first detect whether the player had been hacked/rooted/jailbroken or whatever they call it on this console.
I covered this previously and stated my friend bought it used and no one jailbroke the set. I could tell very easily what shenanigans Sony were yo to and I emailed them about it and ticked them if in the process. I then find it had happened to a great number of people out there. Then I got that call from Sony denying it all and I called her bluff by simply asking her, after she insisted she knew for sure, what a particular update was for. She did not know and I starred that she therefore cannot state anything about updates with any certainty. Oops!
My friends PS3 is still get awaiting a new drive but it won't work as they will just rig the next one on an update. Today he told me that he was speaking to someone who works in a retail store and he asked about the new XBox One, though he called it a PlayStation One! One he realised his error he then said that he had been told to stay away from them. He then twisted what he had been told and that he had been hearing many things about the machines having a great deal of issues and that many were going back to the stores?!
I know there are always trying problems with new things but the amount of machines having issues surprised me. I am not sure if the new Sony is having any issues but this was a surprising thing to hear. I did stare that sometimes people hear of a few stories and then fear the worst, that all machines must be affected?
Then later in the day I saw a friend of mine who has a Nokia 720 Lumia. From the moment he got it he was having issues downloading anything. People were sending him things via all manner of ways and nothing!! I set up another cloud account specifically for music that I could upload and then download to me tablet PC if I ever needed to use it for listening to music, day if the battery on my Walkman gave out while I was out? I used Pocket Cloud but was disappointed in it, took ages to setup, was not obvious what to do or which apps did what and when I did work it out to took longer to work out how to upload. The GUI was rubbish and it was slow to boot. Having used a date few before hand it was a bit disappointing but I set it up and it gave me the option of sending emails straight from each file to someone as a link.
So around my friends place I showed him the list and sent him in email to the sing to test it out. But just like all other attempts it failed. It refused to download and just came up with yet another error page. I started to think that Microsoft were just up to there old shit again and starred to him that I had thought about changing from Android to Windows but his phone had changed my mind again! I said the problem with Windows is you actually pay out a lot for it and then it refuses to play with others, nit realising just how precise I was.
The last time we had this issue with things I told him that I was using the Opera Browser and that he should use that. But we could never find it in the Microsoft store. Today I stated I would have a look online which I pretty much reckon he thought would not happen. To be fair he would think this and he would be correct because I did state many times I writing check out these issues but kept forgetting!
Tonight I looked. It turns out that Internet Explorer on Windows Mobile will not download things like music?! This is absolutely crazy and it gets worse!! Microsoft do not like playing with others and although there is an alternative browser you cannot, repeat CANNOT, make this alternative browser your default browser?!
Now quite how nothing had happened as regards a fine for this practice is completely being me and the laws are just so fecked up on everything it is not true! They were fined many years ago for including Internet Explorer in Windows, despite Windows NOT preventing the installation of Netscape or Firefox?! They were fixed to put in an option for the alternatives. Despite my dislike of Microsoft I found this stupid. But now they have been CODING Windows so that it does not play with others and even lies to you as to the reasons why.
So now I have to tell me friend all this and then state that I am staggered that Microsoft sell any phones at all, though admittedly he is the only person I know with one. I am a bit of a Billy No Mates these days. The last person I knew to use a phone with Windows were the first ones ever and after my XDA phone my sister got the XDA II. LOL!
It is amazing just how naive and stubborn these companies are and their blindness for how quickly they can destroy a huge company it is not true.
I think I will call this the Rome effect? No sound rubbish... how about the Impenetrable Rome attitude. What happens then is that when it's sliding downhill fast they start scrambling around clutching at straws going to stop the rot while living out employees by the dozens or hundreds.
I do not know if these idiot attitudes are down to a single individual or there are just too many blind naive and get morons that are on the board of directors. But whatever it is the end result what's ends up the same. Too many people to please who do not know what they are doing but like to tell people that they do because they have lots of money, yes because that is how you measure intellect of course.
Time and time again they come, rule for while and then start to fade.
As ever the laws are also contradictory and often self serving and us mere mortals just become confused with the mixed signals coming out of all this!
Which oddly is the EXACT OPPOSITE to the very intentions laws were created in the first place and this is the issue I have with laws today.
They are there for the highest bidder and no longer set examples for people to follow and abide by. They also teach that when you get fame, money and power that the laws no longer apply to you. The reaction that some celebrities have had by the insinuations of crimes performed in times gone by has nothing in the way of humbling attached to them. Except when they are on the verge of being found guilty that is, if it gets that far and they ARE guilty of course.
Through the life of this blog I have tried very hard to show the wider public this very thing.
I have also tried to show that the money being wasted by many public services which is the taxpayers money is far worse than the welfare system and that the later is made to look bad because of the tiny 1 or 2% fraction of wasters within said welfare system.
I have also tried to show that if the taxpayer is paying all this money out for services which are then using lies and cheating to not performing the services they are paid to do then this is fraud.
FRAUD ON A GRAND SCALE!
Because they are in powerful high paid positions for a reason, not because they think themselves so important and high and mighty that they should be paid these salaries for sitting on their arses!
Indeed this was why I used the Freedom of Information Act, which I have yet to finish but rest assured I WILL, to tally up the costs of these organisations, services, ombudsman and anything else that is paid for by the taxpayer!
Worst of all is not the lies and the cheating, though it should be, it is the attitude they have. Like they are looking down upon the public and forgotten that they are employed as servants to the public. Or at least this was the reason for their creation.
As far as I am concerned they ceased to be public services some time ago you could measure in many years. Also I have happened to witness in this time and see first hand how some of this money has been spent that is WITHIN my area of expertise and that is wildlife management. I covered this several times last year, an understatement, and will do from about March to October in this year of 2014 and I will acquire a great many films and audio recordings on that.
I also think I know why I have not been threatened with court action regarding this blog?
Fur the life of this blog, which is two weeks away from being eighteen months, I have shown you not only what I did but how I did it, I also suggested that you do the same! Yesterday I caught the tail end of a news report that stated that someone had done the same thing I had been doing and recorded someone. In the new studio someone stated that this was entrapment and many have starred this is what I am doing and that I should tell them first?! I starred first of that I did not care and telling them would be pointless because you would never find out anything! In other words they would get away with it because I for one cannot hire a decent lawyer and to date no lawyer had been interested in enforcing the law because they cannot see a way of getting enough cash out of the task?! Well it turned out that this entrapment law only applies to an individual and that if you are recording someone who represent a company or public service because you suspect shenanigans then you are within your right to do it.
Due to the fact I have laid my cards, or most if them but not all, on the table I may now actually get what I have expected since I was live for a few weeks? A threatening letter from a solicitor who is quite willing to act for a corrupt outfit because they pay well than actually take up the cause if someone who is trying to get justice and make an example if then in such a way that life for many in Britain would actually improve as a result?!
But then like everything else I knew this to be true too! But it still sends my temperature skyrocketing to discover it is just as messed up and conflicting as I knew deep down that it was.
Indeed this is the site reason now for laying out the cards and increasing the frequency and there are THREE correspondences still to do which I will do tomorrow and will reveal on here when they are done.
My pigeons have all been cooing close together but in separate groups. As those the have read my last few posts know it is my intention now to shake my bag of mad giant cats to the point of fixing ire and then their each one among each group of pigeons.
There are three groups whereby I do not see how I would do this or would there be any benefit to me personally. These would be the HMRC, Police, MI5 and GCHQ and see no point nor way of monitoring their reactions. Possibly the Police I might do, the Merseyside Police that is. But I think sine things would be better served by someone else mounting up a portfolio on these people and using my data to add to their own?!
Indeed this is true and can be used of all my data and likely already has! Indeed this person who I heard recorded someone I could not remember fur the life of me, when my friends asked, what it was about, who was recorded and where?! I simply have no recall to any details so it could turn out to be someone that took their ideas from here or maybe the report was about me? I simply do not know and for all I know it may have been someone overseas? Thigh they still could have gotten the idea from here though?! I have been unable to locate this report on my BBC News app. Thigh it could have been a Sky News report berates I do listen to Planet Rock Radio and their news is Sky News.
But I will hammer away for the next 7 days and I am currently frustrated with myself over one thing! When I had gotten two dates mixed up over an appointment with a Nurse I forgot to ask the receptionist if my medical records had turned up as after about 8 weeks they had not?!
As stated I got a call from NHS England retracting two reports when they got informed by the GP Surgery that kicked me off just how diligent I had been, what I had recorded and just how long I had been doing it! There is nothing really they can do and I have managed to manipulate them into a position where it is they that are stuck between a rock and a hard place. This is where I will manipulate all of them now and after the following few correspondences I will then climb atop these rocks and start to rich then back and forth.
My God! It seems like I have been heading to this point in my life like... FOREVER?! Even with the 18 months of this blog that was only a tiny fraction of time that I have been working towards it. I had to be certain I already had enough crap on each of them before even going live online with it, regardless of what format I was to choose.
Still that light I see in the distance is getting bigger now and by April it should be double the size?!
Fingers crossed!
LMFAO!

NOT HAD A BREAK, STILL NOT HAD KITKAT
I am afraid it's likely that only older British and Irish possibly will get the title reference here, lol.
For those that do not know it comes from an old advert for the KitKat chocolate confectionary. Some guys or women would be working hard under stress. Then the coffee or tea break would come where they would get some respite. Then one would grab a KitKat and you would hear someone say 'Have a break...' then the chocolate fingers would be snapped in two and then you would hear '... have a Kitkat.'
I am not speaking of the chocolate confectionary of course! Well not the actual chocolate confectionary but the Google Android Operating System version that was named KitKat. Whether or not money was changed hands over this and whether this is right or wing is never here not there.
Another surprise is I have not used Kitkat and this is not a review of it, unfortunately. In fact this is why it states I have not had my KitKat. However I do need to explain why I have had no break!! Lol.
Before I do that I will describe briefly my last two Android devices. Both manufactured by Motorola one I loved and was indestructable, that was until I broke it, and another that was supposed to be the most powerful smartphone on Earth, but is faulty, slow, used, secondhand and I often want to hurl at a wall!
Lol.
Now there came with one or other particular version of Android. Now I do not recall the version on the first one, the Defy, updating at all. The second one, the Atrix, updated immediately and never updated again!
I am presently using, to type out this post and most others of late, an Advent Tegra Note 7 Tablet PC. Which I bought before Christmas. It is still January and yet this device, which stated off with Jellybean I think, has now updated the times?!
Now one of the reasons I opted for this device and Android to try and continue and expand my work online was due to a big hooha over Kitkat. The owners of Kitkat, Nestle I think, were even reported to have paid money to have their chocolate paired with it. They said it was more streamlined while better and faster in every way.
I am always of the belief then when technology journalists start to make big hoohas over something new it is either revolutionary or everything that went before was actually garbage?! Now as one of the magazines I bought to read about KitKat and brought my attention to it was Android Magazine and the entire cover artwork was in the theme of the Kitkat confectionary chocolate wrapper! So yes a hoohar indeed!
As some of you know very recently I have been livid with this device and it has crashed, several spoofs do not work properly and all force close. Quite bizarrely these are also been Google's too?!
So the device updated almost immediately, well after a few hours, and I thought 'bloody hell it updated to KitKat already?!' but no. It was just on top of Christmas when it updated again. I thought 'finally I have been updated to KitKat!!' ... but no! By this time I was using the device a great deal for typing. I was also having a lot of issues too. But I could not tell with absolute certainty that it was wise now than before it updated but I would put money on it that this was the case.
Tonight I switched the tablet on and I received a message to stare that there was yet ANOTHER update available! It stated that this one was to fix stability issues among other things. When I started it it then started optimising apps, which I had never seen an update do before. This took about ten minutes too and I was interested to see if the issues stopped? I had to ask myself...
Why in the hell have there been so many updates in such a short space if time?!
If the issues I had were down to that LST update, last and so with the fecking LST replacing the word 'last' issue and deck knows what LST is?! Oh yeah so why and how the hell did that last update get released?!
So I am finally on KitKat... well, NO. I might remind you that the title states I have still had no Kitkat?!
This device was advertised by all as receiving Kitkat.
In just over a month I have received three updates and still not on KitKat when my two previous devices received one between them over three years?!
An interesting comparison, don't you think? Note I have to wonder if oddities like this have ever been reported by these technology journalists that want you to now pay a bloody small fortune and every body month for their magazines?!
And if not, THEN WHY NOT?!
LMAO!

COMPANIES GOING THE ROUND ABOUTS
Well here we go with a brand new keyboard and I can already tell that this is going to be a great deal better to use than the Google one installed on this tablet!
Now I have two ways to type out documents with a lot less hassle and with much less frustration than previous attempts. I did not know that the keyboard included on this Jellybean version of Android was Google's own keyboard and once again they have produced or bought something that is either crap out they have ruined!!
I had actually thought the keyboard was Swype, or maybe it was previously but just like YouTube, Blogger, QuikOffice and anything else I am unaware of they paid billions for it the set about ruining it before adding it into their Android OS. Err yes so effectively running their OS little by little too?!
I thought I had constantly been reading in the technology media that Android was gradually improving?! So how is it that something as simple and basic to work with any PC like the keyboard actually is completely crap when it comes you the English language?!
More and more I am finding more and more software is actually getting worse and worse?! Is everyone so focused on forcing upgrades to gather ever more money, not forgetting the bloody gold coins rubbish showing they yet greed of games developers like that of Real Racing 3, that they are forgetting to actually IMPROVE the software before they change it to force the upgrades?! Lol.
I wonder whether anyone of any worth or will ever step in to stop this senseless and greedy behavior before several digital work and play environments?!
Or maybe someone else will come along with an alternative operating system and do it properly and not drive us all up the wall?
Then we can have yet another utterly boring situation where a huge company that was only little a few years before suddenly find themselves being deserted by everyone and their people asking each other what the hell happened?!
I do so find situations like that utterly amusing. Everyone makes the mistake of thinking that the only thing that matters is getting huge and kissed with cash as quick as possible because when they do achieve this they then think they can behave how they want, act all aloof as if all below them are just sheep to be led as well as ignored?
They fail to realise that desire how far they have come in a short space of time that they can fall back down beyond their beginnings and into oblivion even faster than their rise to fame.
Oddly I have predicted that thus is going to happen to a great number of companies, institutions and public services in the next year or two. In the case of technology companies this will come about his arrogance, delusions of grandeur while some one else will come along giving the public what they want and roar upwards.
Now I do not know what it has that changes but I could hazard a very good guess...
People with a great deal of money that think themselves good with money and either want to keep it out greedy for more go into new companies and ventures. They buy into things but then strangely believe that because they got lucky then then know house to run the company someone else stated better than the person or team that created it?! Reminding me now of that scene in the film I saw recently called Elysium. Whereby the man that runs the company Matt Damon's character works for tells Jodie Foster's character 'need I remind you that I started and built up this company'which in this film had a double meaning because he makes fortunes by paying people next to nothing while they work in extremely hazardous conditions with a threat of dangerous levels of radiation.
Or in other words the cycle starts all over again.
This is the danger of the way things will become the norm whereby instead of monopolies you have a cycle of companies riding fast and dying even faster and being replaced by another. Because they want what Microsoft and others once had but ignoring the negative aspects of the fact the company took a nose five and perhaps died.
Because just like with politicians that do not live in reality, you not even one their heads around the door, each one thing they are so highly intelligent than either the previous guy or even the following guy that nothing would ever go wrong.
Perhaps when it dies show signs of going wrong because they thought themselves impervious and invulnerable that they then turn into an evil, lying, cheating and misleading company perky because their pride will not slow then to admit the truth?!
Amusing to think of the possibilities when it just depends in that right sequence of glaringly obvious human failings.
But it is business. We get lectured all the time about business, mostly wrong advice too but time and time again lately we just see it over and over again that big name after big names gets it wrong after acting like they rule or rub the world.
A shame really. I just hope that these clowns can truly learn from past mistakes along with people not being so naive and blind to what is really going on.

MY PHONES BETTER THAN YOURS

BATTLE OF THE BULGES
Well after the current and umpteenth report if yet another battle between Apple and Samsung I now read another particularly interesting report.
This states that a compact called Rockstar had been trading, pardon the pun, blows with Google.
Now this was somewhat confusing as when I saw the Rockstar name I immediately thought of the Grand Theft Auto series games. But Rockstar is a company, now stay with me on this, that seems rio have been set up by Apple, Blackberry (sounds mad? Gets better!) and Microsoft?!
Now this appears to have taken place to buy a company called Nortel. Reading between the lines and as much as it sounds complete bonkers this seems to have been rio grab holds of the intellectual rights of certain...technologies?! So these three did but create them but acted together to get the ownership, do you follow?
Except the company went bust so how come it needed three large companies to buy it?
Odd is it not don't you think that these three have well been losing sales and therefore money of late? They have all remained greedy despite releasing utter tosh for sale but now wasn't to sue everyone they can for copying things they never created?!
Well reading between the lines as best I can that is how it appears.
But still copying is STILL copying st the end of the day. So this then lends me another tool to point out to people just how cut off from reality these guys all are.
A large company copies something and spook they receive once found out is a also in the wrist and a fine normally risking only about 1 percent of their worth! No excuse whatsoever for copying but that is what they get.
Catch a guy on a stall in a market selling copy software and he will have the book thrown at him....fined ten times what he is worth and go to jail. Yet he was probably giving on the breadline and doing it to post his mortgage and keep his family together?!
I am sorry but crime is crime and if you act like this at the top then you are ultimately to blame, no excuses at all here, for giving off the wrong messages to the rest of society that crime is OK as long as you do not get caught and the punishment us not all that anyway!
Both those that act like this along with the bloody bone headed morons in governments that have allowed the legal system to STOP being a legal system and only interested in corporate rip offs are also to blame.
There are no excuses when it comes to anything I post on this blog...for I an but a humble, jobless, penniless, disabled man and yet I predicted this over 7 years ago plus.
You are a bunch of over paid morons more interested in what you can earn over the top of that which the taxpayer pays you by then screwing those that employ you by bending over a barrel in front of these greedy plagiarist companies with your pants around your ankles!
What you see going on within you're countries among the poorest and most unfortunate along with disabled people is a result if what you did. Or indeed what you did not do.
Your answer us to come up behind the taxpayer and stab then in the back to bleed them if even more blood and not the balls to tell us what you're really up to.
Sorry but I think that ANYONE that votes for the big three political parties are either blind, naive or outright bloody stupid.
Regardless of what is said we have been in a downward incline for twenty years and we just keep going down. It humid up a bit for a while but only briefly before it just carries on it's journey ever downward.
It is a shame, and I think criminal and tragic, that your forced to live under such a corrupt series of governments you never once voted for among a society of people that appear mostly naive.
I hope that when the next election comes around I am proved very wrong on that very last statement?! Lol.
Unfortunately my life trend to lean more towards disappointments than it does inspiration and pride these days.
Though I am hoping to change that thought the entire year if 2014.
It is only a hope on that front. All other girls will be achieved but I cannot predict what the majority of a society is going to believe now know what they will do IF they believe.
If only.
