Universo Alternativo
Lamento mucho postear esto en inglés, pero me da flojera el traducir. Para los que no les de flojera leer y lo entiendan, lo deja a uno pensando (especialmente la primera parte).
"Alan Roger Hinman, accounts manager for Gregory and Sons Plumbing and Construction, died Tuesday at the age of 56. His greatest accomplishment was to work at the same job for 20 years, and he led an otherwise undistinguished life. Due to the remarkable lack of interest in Mr. Hinman's life story, this obituary will instead detail what he accomplished in other time lines.
In one alternate universe, Mr. Hinman neglected to fill his father's station wagon's gas tank before the senior prom, and consequently needed to stop for fuel at a station on the outskirts of town, one he had previously avoided due to the somewhat higher prices and grimy exterior. While pumping the gas, he noticed a motorcycle for sale. Suddenly aware of the cool, clear night and the breadth of his life extended before him, he purchased the motorcycle with the money he had set aside for tuxedo rental, dinner and -- optimistically -- contraception.
After a couple awkward practice runs around the parking lot, Mr. Hinman rode off to see the part of America he missed growing up. (Which is to say, all of it except about two-thirds of his hometown, plus the single amusement park his family visited every year at vacation time.) Two years later, he wrote An American in America, a generation-defining quasi-fictional novel about a young man, his motorcycle, a marmoset with a really good grip, and the open road. The book was a huge critical and commercial success, and Mr. Hinman used the proceeds to buy six acres of Oregon land, living in seclusion and producing a small oeuvre of bitingly observant books on American culture.
In our universe, Mr. Hinman remembered to fill the gas tank beforehand, went to the prom and threw up twice despite not drinking any alcohol.
In another alternate time line, Mr. Hinman attended an accountancy conference at the age of 24, at which he noticed a display from a company selling "office computers" which fit snugly into a broom closet and could do the adding of 20 men. Fascinated by this new technology, he resolved to learn all he could about the devices, devouring all the literature available and soldering together simple computers at home.
Two years later, he quit his job and started H Computing, maker of the first successful home computer. Eventually his H-OPS operating system became the standard in both the business and personal world, and the Forbes "World's Richest People" list was renamed the "World's Richest People Apart From Alan Roger Hinman" list.
In our universe, Mr. Hinman saw the computer display, remembered his boss' opinion that "those demon machines will ruin the accounting business," and decided the less he knew about them the better. He resisted computers as much as he could, and sent his first e-mail in 2003.
In a third alternate universe, at the age of 40, Mr. Hinman found himself captured by the Revlians, polyp-covered aliens bent on conquering Earth. They subjected him to incredible torture in order to "learn the powers and limits of this Earth human species." In a development that would surprise anyone who knows him in our universe, these abuses only strengthened his resolve to escape, and Mr. Hinman came up with a daring plan that would later be made into an epic miniseries.
He gained control of the Revlian scout ship and landed it on the White House lawn in his haste to warn the president. For his bravery, Mr. Hinman was put in charge of the Planetary Peace Strikeforce and personally led the Battle of Somewhere Above Queensland, the decisive conflict in the war against the Revlians. He became the greatest war hero in history, and was elected three times to the post of Euro-American Premier before retiring in the face of an extremely manly scandal that only added to his mystique.
In our universe, Revlians do not exist, and alien abductions are a somewhat hackneyed and far-fetched literary device. The closest Mr. Hinman came to these events was the time he accidentally walked into the women's bathroom and, since it was empty and he really had to go, used it anyway.
He is survived by his brother and mother. Services will be held Friday."

el Tempcast episodio 3: Invitado especial... VVoltz
Como alguna vez lo mencione, mi comunidad favorita y la que tiene los foros mas entretenidos del cyberespacio es GBAtemp.
La comunidad como tal es bastante grande, con 100,000 miembros registrados, de los cuales digamos que son unos 10,000 activos, hay mucho donde opinar y todo tipo de temas de los que hablar.
Como tal GBAtemp se dedica a comentar y hacer seguimiento a programas caseros y la scene (el mundo underground) de las consolas de Nintendo, aunque va mucho mas alla, no toca temas de pirateria. La comunidad a lo largo de los anos y desde su aparicion en la Internet ha ido sumando poco a poco varias secciones, por ejemplo, cuentan con un servidor exclusivo para bajar las novedades en cuanto a programas caseros para consolas de Nintendo.
Hace poco empezaron a lanzar un programa (o Podcast) por Internet en donde 3 miembros de la comunidad fueron designados para conducirlo, el programa es bastante popular, incluso en su tercera entrega y con algo de premura en cada episodio. Basicamente los realizadores y todo el personal incluido son novatos.
El tercer episodio salio recien e incluye a participacion de su servidor como invitado.
Si quieren escuchar mi precario ingles, pueden acceder al Podcast (en formato MP3) de aca, para escuchar una version en Flash o de la pagina oficial.

energético puede ser brutal. Sólo 7 minutos, a ver que pasa.
Por favor, tomemos CONCIENCIA del CALENTAMIENTO GLOBAL ,
miren el ejemplo de los osos polares que mueren cada día porque
los icebergs se están derritiendo ya que estos animales tienen la
peculiaridad de aprenderse sus rutas y como las estructuras han
desaparecido estos animales se desubican y mueren ahogados,
eso sin contar los cambios climáticos y el aumento de los niveles del
mar.
Internet tiene mucha fuerza y podemos hacer algo grande.
Así que pasa la noticia. POR FAVOR , COPIA Y PEGA EL TEXTO

para correo basura, s olo se tardaran unos minutos.

La pagina de Entel, continuacion
Parece que los senores de Entel estan prestando atencion y viendo mas alla de sus narices, despues de renegar un poco con los problemas que tenia al cargar la pagina de Entel Bolivia, hoy volvi a hacer la prueba y ya se puede ingresar.
En este momento estoy con Firefox 1.5, pero hare la prueba nuevamente en la noche con Internet Explorer 7.

La pagina de Entel
Como bien saben Entel es la unica empresa en Bolivia que provee acceso a la WWW, es decir, cualquier empresa Boliviana que desee Internet, para uso interno o como proveedor de servicios, debe arrendar los servidores de Entel.
Esto supone que alla en Bolivia todos estamos dentro de una especie de "Intranet de Entel", me he dado cuenta debido a que desde aca, no puedo acceder a la pagina de Entel. En Internet Explorer 6 y Firefox se mostraba un error de un puerto mal configurado en Apache con un mensaje de "Forbidden" (prohibido), en Internet Explorer 7 no sale ningun tipo de error, simplemente sale que no se puede acceder al sitio, como si este no existiere.
Como se que estoy en la pagina oficial de Entel? pues usando Google:

Internet en el celular bajo tierra
Me di cuenta que varias personas utilizan sus "Blackberry" y otros Smartphones en las estaciones de Metro, no entiendo como hacen esto pues a mi el servicio se me corta, me pregunto que compania ofrece servicios de celular incluso en tuneles y estaciones de Metro.
Alguien no sabe lo que es un Smartphone?, cheque este link para un articulo en ingles o este para un articulo en español.
PayPal & eBay, continuacion...
Uju!!!!, ya tengo el registro necesario, ayer llego mi tarjeta de Debito y pude confirmar los datos que PayPal me pidio =)

PayPal & eBay
Bueno, ya estoy registrado en ambos servicios, por ahora no puedo comprar nada debido a que en PayPal exigen que si quiero relacionar mi cuenta de Banco debo ingresar los montos de unos depositos de centavos que ellos hicieron en mi cuenta, no puedo acceder a los servicios de banca por Internet del United, que es donde abri mi cuenta por que todavia no recibi mis tarjetas de ATM y de debito.
Espero que lleguen pronto para confirmar lo de PayPal.
