It shows victory and its a beautiful sunset and catches your eye to make you feel good.

It shows a cool product that people would like and would want to test.

     Google has recently bought another company, Deepmind,  "a cutting edge artificial intelligence company". According to Recode, Google has given them 400 million dollars for the little to nothing AI firm, apparently to acquire the workers as well. If you visit Deepmind's website it tells you how they use "The best techniques from machine learning and systems neuroscience to build powerful general-purpose learning algorithms." Noboddy really knows wat google plans to do with a firm that has spent the last three years in "simulations, applications, and e-commerce."

     Dennis Hassabis is the co-founder of Deepmind, A gaming prodigy and neuroscientist. It also apparently has been backed by some of the most notable tech entrepreneurs of the last decade. Recode's report, which claimed the company has around 50 employees, said the deal was spearheaded by Google CEO Larry Page. The acquisition comes at a time Google, under the stewardship of Android co-founder Andy Rubin is investing heavily in robotics companies. The reasons for which are yet to be disclosed.

This is Honestly really spooky/shady deal. The fact that nobody knows why google bought this company and why they spent 400 million for it is enough for someone (me) to start looking more closely at what google is asking from me in apps and such. I might soon have to start readong the terms and conditions.

Last Christmas I gave you a ....

http://www.squidoo.com/top-10-selling-christmas-gifts

      Its 2014 and Christmas is over but many people are still glued to their amazing new technology they just received. According to squidoo the top sold holiday items were basically the same thing you might see a trendy teenager on the have, Beats by Dr. Dre headphones, an iPhone, etc. The one that stood out from all the rest was the Kindle Fire HDX.

      The  Kindle Fire, for a nice few years now, has been among the top sellers for Christmas. This year with the new features and installments it was a hit. Now the introduction of the mayday button seemed a little off. I mean are they saying when i use there product I'm going to be so confused on how to navigate and not only do i need pictures but a whole video... just saying. But Amazon must have really done something right if they sold as many units as they did this holiday season. Although kindles aren't always the first thing you think of when you think of a great tablet, they are fine for ebooks and little kids.

   Another product which should be expected to show up on the list were gift cards. gift cards are great present for shopping for picky people or people you might not really know all to well. Now in normal cases gift cards are "technology" but amazon gift cards are. They can be emailed, delivered or even posted on your recipients Facebook wall.

     

Has Apple Finally have Done something Right!?

12.21.13

     Although its not Tuesday, something very incredible has been recently released. Apple has introduced a new computer with tons and tons of processing power. More high level than any gaming pc out there, this new Mac Pro features 2 graphics cards, 6 core Intel Xeon E5 processor, 16 DDR3 memory, and a whole lot more. This computer has the power to connect up to three 4k resolution displays.

     This is a more than perfect solution for video editing and pc gaming. My Ps4 can't even touch the power and display of this machine. Although there is high-level specs involved, of course comes high prices, but they are reasonable. An entry level model will run you $3,000. If you decide to max out, 10,000 USD. You can purchase one from here

     Now obviously unless your trying to make a custom Disney animated cartoon out your basement, this is totally unnecessary to have, but its a nice option and it kinda shows that Apple hasn't been sitting on the butts the past couple of years just playing with Air. The new glossy-cylinder like design of the Mac Pro also might be giving us a clue where Apple designs might be going in the next couple of years.

      First off I would never pay such an enormous amount of money because i want my music louder and "clearer". I'm sure maybe this might be a good investment for like a place that needs loud speakers for an audience or something, but this is being marketed to the wrong people. The average consumer (with any brains) would off the jump relize this is a rip off and unnecessary. As far as the features and the specs this device doesn't really do anything that pops out and make it a must have. And one more thing both devices look exactly the same...

KBra

12.9.13 

     The new company, Kobra,  distributes technology hardware for consumers and other buisness. Although it is still in new development, it is growing steady fast. Kobra electronics was introduced in December of 2011 when a group of young individuals were tired of being broke they started selling dvd's. It was a male and a female and together they were Sales Anonymous . The male consisted of the brains and the hardwork, as for the female she just supplied the equipment. One could not work without the other and togethered it worked so as time progressed they sold more and more things and gained more and more profit.

     About 6 months in the two split apart and went there separate ways. One of the members got a job and the other one was never heard from. Since the whole point of Sales anonymous was to get money instead of not making money it was left in the dark because now he was making money... but it was only a summer job so come September he needed to start making money again so he took up the money he did have and bought equipment he needed to continue Sales Anonymous. 

      He was even more successful with sales Anonymous by himself then with his equipment cohort. Soon into the year he decided to change the name from Sales Anonymous to Kobra because it was better than how he was doing before. Kobra is now the official company name with a logo and a buisness office but is still being sold by local representatives. And for all you who still dont understand ... "ur retarded" (yes I'm aware I spelled your "ur"). 

     Kobra industries will brought to a suspicious place near you check in often to find out when

Sony Playstaion 4 is a bust

11.19.13
http://www.techradar.com/us/news/gaming/consoles/sony-offers-fixes-for-ps4-blinking-blue-light-problem-1200284

     Sony's ps4 was released on Friday and even though overall it went smoothly there have been troubles with about 1% of the ps4 community. First off the day one update 1.50 has caused software problems with games and other apps. Also, similiar to the beginning of the life of the xbox 360, ps4 has caught "the blue pulse of death". Error code ce-34878-0 has been shutting games such as call of duty and battlefield 4 down and deleting saved data. other Problems include a very sensitive hdmi port that may bend and cause issues if inserted incorrectly.

     Sony has not made a public statement towards the issues that have given us problems besides the fact that there working on a fix and will be up and working as soon as possible. Ps4 community members have set up a forum and faq guide to the 1% that has been having problems. http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-4-Support/INFO-Blinking-Blue-Light-PS4-Issues/td-p/42154071

     I think that ps4 was rushed and because so there are many flaws that could of been avoided. Originally the ps4 was supposed to be launched in december but thanks to Microsoft's early release date on the Xbox One Sony pushed back. I honestly would have gotten the Xbox One though if Sony's release date was in December
