Leef's Bridge USB Flash Drive

Now this is a good idea.  I wonder why I haven't seen someone already do this.

Yet Another Game Released With Servers Down

You would think after Doritos Crash Course that another game directly behind it would come out with you connecting to servers to play be down on the day of launch.

Well it has and Spartacus Legends has come out with servers down.  Why? Why would you put out a game and not have the servers online to connect to?  How idiotic can you be.  Im tempted to just delete it and not ever play it.

If its not on by nighttime for me to connect, I probably will.

No Headset For Xbox One

Well that's a bummer but that means they are putting everything into how much better the Kinect is.  As long as my current wireless headset from them will still work, I'll be happy.

Lego Back to the Future

I didn't even know they were working on this.  This will be cool to see what all they bring out.

iPad Display Turned Greenish Yellow

Yesterday I ran into something I've never seen before.  Was using the iPad and closed the lid.  Did some stuff came back and my screen had turned a greenish yellow texture and it ruined how everything looked.  It didn't look like a negative, so changing that setting didn't help.

After some research online, I ran across something that cued me in to what I had done and what fixed my iPad.  While messing with my daughter, I had actually hit my iPad to make a loud noise to try to scare her which is what caused my problem. 

The simple fix was to turn the iPad off, flip it over on its back and smack it really hard 3 times on the back.  Turned it on and I saw improvement in the video display.  Turned it off and did it again, display fixed.

I have a 2nd Gen iPad and from the looks of it, there is some wire or connector that looks to come loose but by smacking it on the back, you can put it back in place for a connection.

YEAH for simple fixes that saved me hundreds of dollars.
