Here’s What I Think!

While often made out to be fierce competitors, Apple CEO Tim Cook and Google CEO Sundar Pichai recently shared dinner and a conversation together in Sillicon Valley. Images of the meal were shared on Facebook and discovered on MacGeneration. more…Filed under: Google Corporate

Now for a fanboy like me, this is a site to see. Two CEO’s from rival companies chopping it up over dinner is a spot that looks verrry expensive. The question posed by 9to5Google is “What are Tim and Sundar talking about?” Well Here’s my guess…

Collaboration.

It’s something that I thought about all the time, an iPhone running Android, or vice versa. I wouldn’t be the first person to mention something like this, Steve Wozniak even thinks that Apple and Google should work together. I honestly think that if Tim and Sundar were to create a smartphone together and dropping all past altercations aside, they could topple the smartphone market with just one phone. The device would be the most powerful, elegantly designed piece of technology that this world will ever see. Not to mention that Tim and Sundar can also knock Samsung off their radar. I’m not saying that because I don’t like Samsung, it’s because both Apple and Google had conflicts with Samsung infringing their copyrighted technology.

So what do I think these two CEO’s are talking about? Building an iPhone/Pixel that runs on iOS-Android.

Hey Google, just do what Apple did!

For anyone who owns an Android device, you may or may not have heard about Google Allo. Google Allo is a smart messaging app that is practically like iMessage, WhatsApp, and Kik. The only difference with Allo is the taste of Android. Whether you have used it or not, there really isn’t much dazzle to it. I mean hell, the only awesome feature I found was the Google AI integration. Other than that, it’s just a knock off of what other tech companies have to offer.

In all honestly, the App is clean shaven and runs flawless. I recently purchased a Google Pixel and ever since going back I don’t think I want to return to iPhone. (lol I’m just kidding) Seriously though, Google Allo has been gaining slow momentum. The app recently reached 10 million installs after its first 3 months out but why should we really be concerned with that? Why doesn’t Google just take the route that Apple did and have the app pre-installed and set as the preferred texting app instead of that messenger crap. I get that shit confused with facebook messenger a lot which screws me up everytime I share something and I get the display of apps to choose from.

The fact of the matter is, if Google really wanted to take Allo to new heights, they should make it the prefered texting app on all android devices. Going back to Apple; they created iMessage and made a universal messenger that developed a secret community among iPhone users while categorizing everyone else as SMS. I strongly suggest that Google should take this approach. I mean hell, if you’re gonna copy the “familiarity of an iPhone” with the Google Pixel, at least try some of Apple’s other ideas.

Its about 3:35 in The Morning

Its a little bit after 3AM and here I am quietly typing away my thoughts on a computer that at one point, I would have never dreamed of owning. Its the little things in life that we take for granted though. If I didn’t have this fancy computer I probably would have had a Chromebook or something. Pretty much a little rig that can’t do anything but let me type on it. With my current station, I can create music, edit photos, and so much more awesome stuff!

Thats all besides the point. The point that I am trying to mention is my place in life. I often question it and never give myself an answer because I feel like its diabolical. Its kind of scary to think but I always push that thought off to the side. A lot of times when the topic does pop up is when I’m on top of a roof cleaning a hood with my dad. Its not the best job in the world but its all the old man knows how to do.

I feel and see a lot of lacking in my life. There isn’t a lot there but a bunch of emptiness and cold chilling air that occasionally creeps up your spine. Its all too surreal but like I said earlier, I try not to think about it and go on about my day.

It still bothers me though. I want to know more but I know that knowing will kill me. I still can’t let a small reason stop me as I journey into the mist. It some times makes me sick to my stomach but in the end I always feel better. Kind of like when you throw up. haha!

ill find it soon

Samsung’s Hero 1 & Hero 2 *Just My Opinion*

Oh come on SAMSUNG! You’re better than this! I mean the events that are about to take place can easily be compared to a previous move already done. What am I talking about?

SAMSUNG IS WATCHING APPLES EVERY MOVE!

I’m serious! Apple gets a finger print sensor, Samsung follows suite. Have ya’ taken a look at Samsungs headphones?! Them damn things look exactly like Apple headphones. This is the reason why I am not to much of a Samsung fan. Owning a damn Samsung device is like listening to Drake, theres a fucking ghost writer! So lets cut past the bullshit and get straight to the source. The only reason why Samsung is getting friction is because of Android.

Oh…my bad, I forgot to address what I’m ranting about. As reported by 9to5mac, Samsung will release the Samsung Galaxy s7 in two sizes. One coming with a 5.2 inch display and the other device with a 5.5. The strategy taken has been done by Apple. The Silicon Valley tech giant released the the iPhone 6 and the 6 Plus in 2014. Here we are not even two years later yet and Samsung has copied and pasted Apples blueprint.

Yeah I know you’re upset that I am disrespecting your beloved galaxy piece of shit on a fucking blogpost, but what you got to realize is that I don’t give a fuck. All i’m doing is just pointing out the questions that people in general do not want to ask.

Thats it.

A BLOG POST I WROTE HIGH AS FUCK

Have you ever rolled a joint and then tried to smoke it only to find out that it won’t light? Then you have to go through the painstaking process of unraveling your joint, grabbing your pipe, then packing a bowl. It screws everything up because now all of your plans that you have gone through and made are now being pushed back 5 minutes or so because you got to redo you weed mistake.

What makes it worse its that you’ll get sad, open your refrigerator in search of yogurt but there isn’t any so you settle for strawberry sherbert. You’re only satisfied for 20 minutes because you realize that people who spell the word in front of the word that in this sentence with a letter “S” are foreigners. It makes sense right? I know that I’m not the only one who thinks this.

To top it all off with the icing on the cake, you began to think about all the other junk food thats in the fridge but you’re afraid to eat them because a sick stomach in the morning is something you do not want to deal with. Its kind of like a hangover but your not sick because of the Remy. OH and besides this nigga Fetty Wap, who in the HELL ELSE drinks fucking Remy Martin? NOBODY that I know of. Now you can easily joke and say that my friends are broke but we all got jobs and pay bills, so take your “broke” jokes across the river with the rest of those damn hoosiers.

I could go on all day but doing that would just get those weirdos jerking off to the impractical thoughts that pierce an ovulating mind. Just think of all those wonderful thoughtful juices seeping from the clustered lines and squiggles that scatter across the human brain. Its a bit gut turning but to say the least, the beef was cold.

Oh before I go, can we all just come together the summer of 2016 and make a video that says “Fuck Donald Trump?” Like I can’t be the only one who wants to take a shit on this noggin and piss in his nostrils. Like for real, fuck that rich bastard who appeals to the ignorant poor people. Those same ignorant poor people who don’t have money to pay for health insurance but want Obama Care abolished. Its bullshit but lets not think about it as we walk through life accustomed to un-equal trade and value.

How ever this shit goes, I know to not enter the realm of mistakable primitives and unjust conspiracies.

ps. Fuck Samsung, they are forever copying Apple. I just see the new design leak for that damn Galaxy S7, its ugly. I read rumors that the iPhone 7 will not include a home button and incorporate the 3D touch as a button but on the screen. Just watch though, Samsung will see what revolutionary creation Apple has implemented and then will copy it. Its fucking pitiful

Comfy Corner

A genie has granted your wish to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like?

So as I was walking down to the bad luck spot and dreading the fact that I was about to skate there, A genie popped out form behind the bushes by Subway and said “Hey! Its your lucky day! You have 3 wishes and I will grant them all today or spread out across your life” So in response I told her that I would like to use one today. She said “Well perfect! What shall your wish be?” I thought for a moment then said, “I want my own reading/book corner inside of a modern apt building in the highlands”. And with that we disappeared in a poof of smoke and ended up in the highlands in front of my new apt.

I opened the door and the first thing that was in front of me was a set of double doors that looked like they would be a closet. I slowly walked up to it and slightly opened the two doors peaking inside. I saw stairs that below the apt, so I swung the doors all the way open and briskly walked down stairs and entered to what appeared to be a library with a luxurious office desk. The walls were book shelves full of books. It looked as if I was in a library that you would see off the movies that are really big with the smart looking books on them….yeah SMART LOOKING. The carpet was a dark red and the desk was the color of red oak. On the desk was a brand new iMac and a few notebooks laying there with a quill placed on top. The chair was black and has a curve to the back of it. Behind the desk and chair was a huge LED flat screen shaped as a window. It gave a view of the front of the apt and would occasionally switch to the back.

The ceiling was decorated with quotes from famous authors. To add to all the amazing stuff found, there was a secret door that was behind one of the book shelves. You had to pull a book and the whole door would open revealing a spacious entertainment room and stairs that led back up to the rest of the apt. When I stepped back into the big library, I saw a sign above the door I came out of saying Comfy Corner.

If that really happened I would be pissin’ EVERYWHERE in excitement.

Almost everything…

Almost everything–all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure–these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart
