technical difficulties

just posting a small one to see if my blog is working. why is it, that when i use a windows computer these days, i run into way too many... roadblocks, obstacles, what's the word. everything takes so much time, it's so fucking difficult or impossible, and i spend hours just waiting for folders to load. folders full of files i already have on my fucking computer, it's not downloading time, it's just loading time, how fucking stupid is that, and am i the only one who thinks this is stupid. i don't remember having to do that shit on windows xp. waiting for folders to load. it doesn't matter if it's a folder full of high resolution wallpapers, a gigabyte worth of files, or a folder with one album in it. the folder containing the birthday massacre's pins and needles album, that folder alone takes at least a minute to load, each time. and it's displayed in list view. not details, not thumbnails, and it doesn't matter where i download that album from, this has happened on three laptops of varying speeds now, that folder always takes so long to load. i watch it loading. track one, in the dark. waiting. track two shows up. waiting. track three shows up. that stupid bar going across the top, why the fuck did they think that up, just to make you feel like it's gonna load faster, when they designed it not to. why would they design a computer operating system that's this stupid? i just don't get it. why do they have to have so much control over our desktops.

and they say 'well what if someone else needs to use your computer'.

then why do we need passwords?

seems like this could be figured out, and simplified, with just a little bit of thinking.

i picture walking up to any screen. touching my thumb to it, and it ripples and loads my desktop. remotely, from wherever my home computer is running. back in the day, they used to call this remote assistance, but i always wondered why the fuck the only use for it, would be for tech support. no, you idiots, it's remote access, meaning you can access your running desktop from anywhere. then they came up with syncronization of files, but didn't think to put those two together. yeah, microsoft should not be in charge. either that, or they should have hired me, but how would they know, they can't find me on their own internet, which tells me they don't know what the fuck they're doing.

but i would like to walk up to any screen. just big pieces of unbreakable glass, touch screen, thumb print technology, all that shit, you touch your thumb to it, it ripples out and loads your desktop as it looks right at that moment in your home. or wherever you have your home computer set up. resolutions don't matter anymore, as you can shrink anything you want to fit on whatever screen you're on, and still be able to read the text. that could have been done when high definition finally came out. but no one figured out to implement that either. but you load your desktop, and you're able to do whatever you want on there, it's connected to the internet like your compass is connected to the earth's magnetic energy. i can't wait to figure that one out. no more charging, no more wifi, this was in the earth the whole time. everything electric uses magnets, then why can't my laptop run without being plugged in? my compass doesn't need a battery.

but walk up to a screen, touch it, and it loads your desktop. you can show anyone you want what's on there, you can set it to recognize your girlfriend's thumbprint if you want, so you can both use it, or anyone else for that matter. you can restrict their access to certain things, if you like. people can see what your desktop looks like, you can show them something, flip through pictures, play a movie, music, whatever you want. but as soon as they touch that screen... their desktop loads. no one can make changes to yours, and if they do, those changes are logged in the home computer, so they can be reversed later. no passwords. no security. no insecurity. people feeling safe enough to share their digital lives with whoever they want, and not having to worry about 'is that guy gonna delete my movie collection'.

i imagine hearing someone walk by and look and my screen, and say 'wow, dude, your desktop looks cool, nice button'. won't be long till that's made into a popular bumpersticker, 'nice button'. fine print underneath, '©OzzTek Industries'. OzzTek is just a button, and from there, it's a fully customizable menu that plays your files. that's all it has to do, since everything software wise is inherent in the menu. it's customizable, which means you can add to it, if there's something you don't like, you can change it or remove it... for example, if you don't like listening to music at all, you can disable or remove the audio playing portion of the menu. if you like. if you no longer want to see pictures of your dead mother for whatever reason, you can remove or disable the picture showing function. you don't need three different picture displaying programs, because you can edit and change the one you've got however you see fit. if you want the forward and back buttons to display on the top corners of the picture, with no frame or anything, and a delete button on the bottom right corner, and nothing else... that's your choice. i encourage it.

you just know what the fucking government would say though. 'but that gives everyone a different desktop, and freedoms they shouldn't have with files, and that could create total chaos and anarchy!'.

what's wrong, scared of a little freedom? scared of people growing out from under your control? scared of people opposing you? or are you just trying to breed individuality out of us, so you can have an army of mindless clones and robot slaves? i'm doing this to give people their desktops back to them. freedom with your own creativity, wherever you wish to take it. whether it be visual arts, audio, literary... it's up to you now. no more paying six grand for adobe software. just edit the menu. configure it however the fuck you want.

i picture walking through a street where there is a row of screens. fuck libraries and their dinosaur computers, this is right outside a row of stores in downtown wherever. there's a bike rack, a charging station for those electric cars, maybe a water fountain in the background, people walking around... and there is a row of screens, and some of them are being used by people, to check their email, send an email, show a friend a picture, whatever. i'd love to walk by that row, and see everyone's desktops looking as unique as possible.

that girl there, with the cute blonde hair, and the pink dress. i picture her desktop having flowers on it, and little animated bees flying from flower to flower. and when she mouses over one flower, her ozztek menu pops up. when she right clicks one of the bees, another little ozztek menu pops up, and in that menu, she just has a few of her favourite picture files. maybe there's a little picture frame in the top right corner of her desktop, and it displays some of these pictures. no more taskbars with uniformed icons, and unchanged google chrome icons. no more white screens. no more white anything. i want to see white, grey, and black, gone from people's desktops. i want to see colour. shapes. designs that are not bound to anyone else's limitations. set your mind free on your very own desktop, with no limitations.

if you want google chrome, but want to make changes to it, you can do that. all you really need is the browser in ozztek, and you can make it look and work just like chrome, or you can make it look and work however the fuck you want. if you want the icon to look like chrome's icon, that's very unimaginative of you, but go for it. if you want your browser icon to look like jupiter, like i do... that's your choice. you can make it look like a stink bug, if you want. or a mechanical fish, i don't care. just as long as everyone has something different. i want to see a girl with flowers and bees on her desktop. i want to see a guy with rusted mechanical gears on his desktop, and his buddy next to him with shiny metal lookin' sharp things. little strips of pink for his girlfriend. mainly, i want to see colour. no more grey, no more white. one girl typing up an email in a pink window. and all the window needs, and all she has displaying, is the top field, where she can just click and select a friend to send it to, type in the subject right under that, and then type the message in the pink square, and then click the desert rose coloured send button. you don't need a bunch of other shit there. if you want the attachment button to show up, just mouse over a certain corner of the email, wherever you decided to put it. it will appear, click it, little box pops up, drag your picture into the box, it shrinks back into the email, uploads the file, sends the email. the guy next to her sending another email, and behind his email, he has a picture of a naked lady. in the lady's right hand, he can choose the recipient of the email, say his friend blob. and that's all it has to display. to: blob. in the lady's left hand, says subject: hey, douche! and on her belly, you get to type your message in a font that looks white and gooey. her nipple is the send button. when he clicks send, the lady walks off the right side of his desktop. that kid wins my creativity award for the day. down the street, some old man, looking up some information on retirement, his desktop looks all 'war hero' with a captain america style goin'. some big star is his ozztek button, but it doesn't show up until he mouses over a certain area of his screen, like... captain america's head, for example. mouse over captain america's head, and a star appears on his hat thing. he either left clicks for one menu, or right clicks for another menu. he has a secret hidden menu with military files hidden in the lady's bra, who's walking through the background of his desktop. you can animate whatever you want, have everything else stay still... like the whole captain america scene is still, but he just has this one lady in the background animated to walk around the street behind captain america. and when you click a certain way on her bra, a little envelope flies out, he opens the file in it titled 'notes on freedom', types something into it, when he closes it, it's automatically saved, so no unnecessary boxes popping up asking you redundant permissions like 'are you sure you want to save the changes to this fi...' shut the fuck up already! yes! if you think those are annoying, you can stop seeing them. if you think the windows task bar is ugly and annoying and misplaced, you can change it, you can get rid of it. all the icons on your taskbar, you can have in one menu. all the rest of the icons in your start menu, you can have them in another menu. you can have as many menus as you want. mouse up to the top right corner of your desktop, right click, there's a menu just for porn. mouse over to the top left corner of your desktop, and left click, and there's a menu just for your cooking recipes. bottom right corner, there's a menu for all your movies. if you right click that same menu, it opens and shows a short list including netflix, youtube, and naked news. you can have it show just icons, or just text, whatever you want. you can customize the icons. say you want the naked news icon to be just a picture of a tit. youtube is a picture of an old smashed television from the seventies. netflix is a picture of a cartoonish worm whose eyes occasionally blink. you can set the icons to display horizontally, or vertically, or diagonally, if you feel like it. you can change it anytime you want.

'is not this simpler'... loki.

anyway. that's it for my morning cup of brain spew. mind snot. thought boogers. oatmeal.

i'm so confused today. i wish things could be easier.
