Changes

The following of ParchedInSpace is down, way down. Posting, views, comments, and votes are down. I have decided to move ParchedInSpace to Tumblr. Here is the new address: http://parchedinspace.tumblr.com. If you wish to post to this new site send me an email or facebook message or fuck a phone call will do the trick. If not, I don't care. I try to keep parched full of random shit I find funny, interesting, and dumb, but I need your help as well. I tried to migrate all the old posts to the new tumblr site, but it has a 250 post/day limit and the tool I used picked a ton of random posts, so enjoy the randomness that is currently present. From this day forth posting will no longer be possible on the blogspot site.

Assassins Creed III coming to a theatre near you

So Check this, a band making three album series loosly based on the first six NES Mega Man Games

...Creamed your pants just reading that title eh? Well the band is Protomen. And I have been getting in to them lately and advise you check them out, One of their band members is named K.I.L.R.O.Y. and literally his instrument description is "Fist pumps, Hand claps, Armorer and Sledgehammer", but if you check their live footage, he is the narrator that talks to the crowd before shows. First two albums are already out: (via wikipedia)

Act I (The Protomen)

Main article: The Protomen (album)

In Act I, the band's first album, Dr. Wily is represented as an Orwellian ruler over a dystopic City, full of humans who are too scared to stand up to his control. Dr. Light creates a "perfect man, an unbeatable machine", Protoman, to fight to free the City, but Protoman is destroyed by the overwhelming power of Wily's armies. Defeated and despairing, Dr. Light then creates a second son, Megaman, who he attempts to dissuade from battle. Megaman runs away from home and confronts his brother in an apocalyptic concluding battle. The album has been described by the band as "the sound of the end of the world" and straddles the line between chiptune and hard rock, with heavier focus on distorted 8-bit synthesizers and electronic instrumentation.
Group member Commander has stated that Act I "was made specifically to go against everything our recording teachers and fellow students were trying to feed us about making everything sound pristine and 'perfect.'".^[6] The album was recorded over two years in various Murfreesboro studios, using analog rather than digital production techniques.^[9] "Due Vendetta", the group's first recorded track, was completed in April 2003. The album was produced by then-Protomen member Heath Who Hath No Name.

Audio quality is bad, but you get the idea.

Act II (Act II - The Father of Death)

Main article: Act II: The Father of Death

For the band's second album the group, working with Meat Loaf producer Alan Shacklock, devised a prequel storyline to Act I. The second act details the rise of Albert Wily to power, the rivalry between himself and Thomas Light, and the tragic events which brought the City under Wily's control. The band states that Act II was designed to sound cleaner, reflecting a time "before the bomb dropped". Accordingly, the second album reflects a much broader range of musical styles and more lyrical instrumentation, embracing references from Ennio Morricone to Bruce Springsteen to Shacklock's own Babe Ruth. The album was mastered by Richard Dodd, a Grammy-winning recording engineer.

Enjoy.

But what about the Death Star? That’s too obvious to miss!

First, the Death Star is so friggin’ huge that it doesn’t fit on even the largest chart I’ve made. And that’s even for the low-ball estimate of the size, which brings me to my second point: No one can agree just how big the Death Stars actually were, so there’s no point in doing their sizes.

Paul Thomas Anderson v. Cohen Brothers et. al.

While on location in Marfa, Texas, There Will Be Blood was shooting nearby. One day, while filming a wide shot of the landscape, directors Joel Coen and Ethan Coen had to halt shooting for the day when a gigantic cloud of dark smoke floated conspicuously into view. Paul Thomas Anderson was testing the pyrotechnics of an oil derrick set ablaze on the set of his film. The Coens resumed filming the next day, when the smoke finally dissipated. A year and a half later, both films were the leading contenders at the Academy Awards.

Kurt Cobain's Suicide letter

To Boddah pronounced

Speaking from the tongue of an experienced simpleton who obviously would rather be an emasculated, infantile complainee. This note should be pretty easy to understand. All the warnings from the punk rock 101 courses over the years. Since my first introduction to the, shall we say, ethics involved with independence and the embracement of your community has proven to be very true. I haven't felt the exitement of listening to as well as creating music along with reading and writing for too many years now. I feel guilty beyond words about these things. For example when we're backstage and the lights go out and the manic roar of the crowd begins it doesn't affect the way in which it did for Freddy Mercury who seemed to love and relish in the love and adoration from the crowd. Which is something I totally admire and envy. The fact is I can't fool you. Any one of you. It simply isn't fair to you or me. The worst crime I can think of would be to rip people off by faking it and pretending as if I'm having 100 % fun. Sometimes I feel as if I should have a punch in time clock before I walk out on stage. I've tried everything within my power to appreciate it, and I do. God, believe me I do but it's not enough.

I appreciate the fact that I and we have affected and entertained a lot of people. I must be one of one of those narcissists who only appreciate things when they're gone. I'm too sensitive. I need to be slightly numb in order to regain the enthusiasm I once had as a child. On our last three tours I've had a much better appreciation for all the people I've known personally and as fans of our music, but I still can't get over the frustration, the guilt and empathy I have for everyone. There's good in all of us and I think I simply love people too much. So much that it makes me feel too fucking sad. The sad little, sensitive, unappreciative, pisces Jesus man! Why don't you just enjoy it? I don't know. I have a goddess of a wife who sweats ambition and empathy and a daughter who reminds me too much of what I used to be.

Full of love and joy kissing every person she meets because everyone is good and will do her no harm. And that terrifies me to the point to where I can barely function. I can't stand the thought of Frances becoming the miserable self-destructive, death rocker that I've become. I have it good, very good, and I'm grateful, but since the age of seven I've become hateful towards all humans in general. Only because it seems so easy for people to get along, and have empathy. Empathy! Only because I love and feel for people too much I guess. Thank you all from the pit of my burning nauseous stomach for your letters and concern during the past years. I'm too much of an erratic, moody baby! I don't have the passion anymore and so remember, its better to burn out than to fade away. peace, love, empathy. Kurt Cobain

Frances and Courtney, I'll be at your later.
Please keep going Courtney
For Frances
For her life which will be so much happier without me. I Love you. I love you!

Made some video game music for a guy

I met a man at Walmart that makes video games and asked him if I could make some background music for him. He asked me if I had any thing to go with a post apocalyptic Zombie game that takes place in a technology oriented cafe. This is what I made him. His response "Wow. 1000% blown away...I'm definitely putting this into our game level."

Star Wars Where's Waldo

Mos Eisley becomes the nexus of all science fiction realities in this giant print from artist Ulises Farinas. How many out-of-place characters can you find? Farinas is selling extra-wide prints of this Easter egg hunt on his website, and I hope he includes a list. Check out the full-sized version to seek out a Terminator, the Tenth Doctor and his TARDIS, Spock, Batman, Superman, a LEGO minifig, and a whole host of other characters who don't belong in the Star Wars universe.
But seriously, is Waldo somewhere in this picture? Someone tell me; it's driving me nuts.
Edit:Ulises Farinas just tweeted that he doesn't actually remember if he put Waldo in this piece or not. Thanks for not alleviating my current insanity, Mr. Farinas.

Magic Legs?

Anyone remember this classic Nintendo Power issue? It’s pretty old – all the way back from April 1993.
At first glace, you may not pick up on anything particularly noteworthy. Upon closer inspection of the cover, however, you’ll notice that Fox’s legs appear to be made of metal… and he apparently lacks feet/legs.
Here’s where things get really interesting. Check out this blurb regarding legless pilots:

“Legless pilots can handle more Gs than their legged bretherin. When gravity forces blood from the brain to lower extremities, it causes the pilot to black out. But if you have no legs to force blood to, more blood can stay in the brain, and it’s easier for the heart to pump blood back to the brain.

“Their legs were probably voluntarily amputated as these are all trained pilots. Their futuristic society allows for prosthetics that allows them to walk and run normally so there’s no loss in performing these amputations.”

I will mention here that other titles in the series, such as Star Fox Command, make it seem as though the characters are wearing boots – see this picture for example.
So in the SNES game, the Star Fox unit’s legs were amputated so that they’d be more effective in the cockpit? With Nintendo, you never know! I’m not ready to believe this theory just yet, but it’s interesting nonetheless. Perhaps Nintendo was thinking about having the Star Fox crew lack feet/legs early on in the series, but later changed the “metal legs” to boots.

Free fall at the speed of sound

Joe Kittinger: 19.26 mile drop to the speed of sound. He reached a high speed of 617 mph in thin air at -70 °. A small hole was created in his right glove that made him feel great pain in the hand due to the low air pressure. The free fall lasted 4 minutes and 36 seconds.

Or I'm going to die, it's really that simple." - Will Smith

Is the Kia Sportage Worth a Gallon of Piss? I drink a lot of water to find out.

So what we have in front of us is Kia’s newest reiteration of their “crossover” vehicle. Basically a car frame bastardized and fattenend to be “designed for the next level.” (pulled from Kia’s webisite) but really it turns out to be another 4 wheel maytag. Here’s the DL: Real SUV’s use truck frames i.e Tahoe, but since people of the orient are small and have never experienced the gold rush, wagon trail, or winning world wars they are quite unfamiliar building a proper truck frame for a proper utility vehicle.

But then again, its 2012, computers can cover a lot of engineering errors now-a-days. Which brings up the question. Is the Kia Sporatage worth a gallon of piss?

Before we begin, let’s start with a short history of Kia.

KIA was named with an oldest Korean marketing trick in the book i.e overfeeding an autistic child with Alpha-Bits Cereal and whiskey until the child pukes up some letters, which is then used to name the company. In this case, K I and A were ralfed up first. And there is how KIA was named. And they have been making shitty vehicles ever since….

So about the car,
