A N00b's Guide To The Internet: Digital Drugs

Lets face it drugs are everywhere, and the Internet is no exception. Digital drugs are now actually quite a common thing, but what are they? How do they work? If they even work at all that is.

Digital drugs aren't as new as you might think, in fact they are actually down right old, dating back to 1839 when Heinrich Wilhelm Dove discovered Binaural beats. A Binaural beat is created when two different tones are play in each ear, the tones must be of slightly different frequency's. The tones should "mix" together a produce a third tone that sounds like it is coming from inside your head. Sounds totally dangerous and sounds like you probably shouldn't do it but don't worry the website says its not harmful.

But does it actually work? Well being the investigative journalist that I am, I decided that, in the name of science, I would try it. This is how it went down.

I plugged my headphones in feeling skeptical, i mean who wouldn't be a little skeptical? Press play on itunes. Suddenly I hear low buzzing/humming sounds, with occasional water flowing, or some one peeing I really couldn't tell. This went on for about 20 or so min, than it was over. I felt normal still and just naturally assumed that it did not work. Than I looked at my chair and was like," Whoa my chairs really small." Than I saw my desk and went, "Whoa my desk is really small." In a state of part panic and part shock I decided to text Jack, but my phone was just to small. I vividly remember thinking to myself, "Why did I buy this phone? It's far to small for me! It's far to small for anyone, this is ridiculous!" This lasted for about 20 min until everything went back to normal.

Let's say that you wanted to try this for yourself, where would you get these mp3 files? I-Doser.com specializes in selling these files. This website sells a variety of different MP3 all said to have different effects, everything from the effects of a bottle of wine to the effects of snorting 6 lines of coke. I of course acquired my mp3 through "a legal" means *wink* *wink*

Yes I guess this could be viewed as bad and people could get addicted to it, but hey, people get addicted to anything and everything all the time anyways. While it was..(weird?) to try I probably wont try it again.

But if I was I would drop $200 for the "Gates Of Hades" mp3. It stimulates a birds eye view over hell....Awesome.

A N00b's Guide To The Internet: Anonymous

Who is Anonymous? Anonymous isn't anyone, But it is a lot of people. Anonymous has no leader, but carries out planed attacks and raids. Simply put if the Internet was a movie, Anonymous would be the bad guy. But what makes them so bad? I mean after all, they are the people that gave us you dun goof'd. Well Let me tell you.

It all started in in 2006 with the Habbo raids. Habbo is an Social MMO where people go to socialize. On a planned day Anonymous users joined the site creating avatars of black men with suits and grey afros, with these avatars Anonymous blocked off entrances to certain areas of the site saying it was "closed due to aids." They also used all of there avatars to create swastika formations all over the website.

Also in 2006 Anonymous lunched a raid against a white supremacy radio show in New Jersey. It started with prank phone calls than escalated to a DDoS attack, (Distributed Denial-of-Service attack) This caused the radio host, Hal Turner, to try and sue 4chan.org, the site that Anonymous is know to use. He lost the law suit and than quit his job. Both of these attacks were nothing compared to what Anonymous had planed next.


On January 21st 2008 Anonymous hacked the Church Of Scientology youtube channel and posted a video called "A Message to Scientology" This video started the war between Anonymous and Scientology. Anonymous planed DDoS attacks and took down the Churches websites and sent black faxes to the church itself.

On February 2th, 2008 Anonymous posted another video called "Call To Action" This video encouraged people to protest the church of Scientology in non-violent ways. On February 10th about 8,000 people in 93 city's protested the church of Scientology.




Also in 2008 Anonymous took to many forum websites such as SOHH.com, Allhiphop.com and an Epilepsy support forum. SOHH and Allhiphop are both hip hop and rap oriented sites (obviously) Anonymous hacked into the site and changed all banners to have false news and racist images, while the Epilepsy support forum got hit with flashing images that were known to cause seizures. Both of the hip hop sites servers were crashed, and many people suffered from seizures.

As mentioned earlier Anonymous does sometimes harass young girls, now imagine with me that your a middle school girl in Cali (this is just a little weird) you decide, "Hey cussing is bad" so you start the no cussing club. Its place for teenagers to discuss clean things and of course no cussing. It was all fun and games until Anonymous found them. Anonymous raided the site of personal information and her house became the target of many prank calls and LOTS of porn delivery's.


Can people from a group that seems to cause nothing but trouble ever do anything good for anyone? Surprisingly yes. Chris Forcand was a 53 year old Internet predator with two accounts of luring children under 14 to have sex with him. Anonymous tracked him down and had him arrested, this has been the first case of Internet vigilantism. In another case of Anonymous tracked down a woman that posted a video of her self throwing puppy's into a river to drown, Anonymous leaked all of her personal information to the Internet.



In my opinion people in Anonymous are the best example of what happens when people think they are anonymous...They act like dicks.

Sometimes I Play Video Games: Fallout New Vegas

This has been a game that I have been waiting for since Fallout 3 came out in 2008, after putting an almost 100 hours I feel like I am to review it, and can honestly say this game is a broken piece of s#:t.

What makes this game broken you ask? Well off the top of my head

1. The game crashes once every give or take 30 min

2. Some times the ground decides that it no longer wishes to be solid, so I fall through it in to an blackness forever without dying.

3. When I walk to a room a fire my shot gun every item in the room floats to the ceiling, and stays there.

4. While wondering the wasteland I have been killed by plants that randomly spawn.

5. Followers in this game can not die, ever.

6. Never mind they can die by falling through the ground or randomly floating into space.

7. I picked up my game at Game stop so I got a special gun, I put a mod on this gun and now there is a red box with an explanation mark, this is because the gun was never modeled in Pre-production. This also stops me from being able to use the gun.
GAME BREAKER(kinda)

Surprisingly though, even with all of these bugs the game is awesome, like really awesome. The game keeps everything that I liked about Fallout 3 and put everything I liked from Fallout 1 and 2. The game looks exactly like Fallout 3, but set in the west coast like in 1 and 2. The trait system is also back from Fallout 1 and 2. This makes your character far more customizable, in this game if you want to you can play as the 8 ft tall Neanderthal with 0 intelligence, you can also play as the weakling with 100 percent intelligence, its up to you. Your not playing as the faceless character that you played as in Fallout 3.

Adding factions to the game in theory sounds like a good idea, choose witch group you want to side with and help them out. Except every thing I do in this game pisses some one else off, like pisses them off enough to send people to kill me. Here's another bug, the people that they send to kill you don't walk up to you or anything, they spawn behind you at random times and shoot you. Rad. Another change that they made in this game was making it so that you can't be god. You can't hit level 20 and have nothing kill you. In this game 4-5 shots your dead. End of story.

Hardcore mode is also something new that they added to this game. In hardcore mode you have to sleep, you have to eat and you have to stay hydrated, or else you die, game over. Sounds fun huh?...Yeah, F**k that.

Overall if you liked Fallout 3 you might like it after it gets patched in a few months, just play Fallout 3 till than.

Dommin - Love Is Gone

Stand Out Songs
1. My Heart, Your Hands
2. New
5. Love Is Gone
6. Dark Holiday

Whats It Sound Like?
Sounds like Danzig found a band that new how to play there interments, except they were whinny and made Danzig sing about his emotions.


What Makes This Album So Special?
This album is a good example of what goth metal should be, sure its a little emo but its goth metal its supposed to be a LITTLE emo. They don't bash you over the head with stupid lyrics about break ups or how now one likes them, but yeah there is some emo in there. If that's a problem than just listen to the band, because they are awesome. The time changes in Dark Holiday should prove my point. There singer also has the raw power of Danzig's voice and a little of the tone but it's not to the point where all I can think about is, "wow this guy sounds like Danzig, but not as good" just enough to be awesome. To be straight to the point this is just bad ass.

Why Rolling Stone (Probably) Didn't Put This On The List.

They must not be down with the pleather.

"We're not emo goshhh"

CKY - Vol.1

Stand Out Songs
1. 96 Quite Bitter Beings

7. My Promiscuous Daughter
8. Sara's Mask
9. To All Of You


Whats It Sound Like?
Pure awesomeness

What Makes It So Special?
Cky may be one of the most under rated guitar driven bands ever. Chad and Deron show impressively complex riffs on every song over a pretty wide range of styles. While Cky's other albums are also good this one is by far the best. Every song is perfect and I honestly can't recommend it enough.

Why Rolling Stone (Probably) Didn't Put This On The List.

Because Rolling Stone Hates Cky.

9. Push It Down
12. Serious Business
14. 8-Bit Pimp

Whats It Sound Like
Dr. Dre and Busta Rhymes go to the arcade

What Makes This So Special?
That is a poor question to ask about this album, I mean what DOESNT make this album special? A rap artist who uses old Nintendo sounds for his beats while he raps about Street Fighter and other old school video games? What else do you need? Its pretty awesome when you hear sounds that you recognize in the beat, and the whole album is easy to grove too. His style is awesome, the references and nods to nerd culture he gives through out the album never get old, "What can I do to make it better for you?" "Make me a sandwich while I play Street Fighter II." Pure win. It's almost sad that music this good is going unplayed.

The only thing that I can hold against this album is that at times the music can over power the vocals, although it is rare it does happen and its a bit annoying. Still the album is amazing and you should go buy it, now.

Why Rolling Stone (Probably) Didn't Put This On The List.
He dosen't sing about how much money and stuff he has enough.
