Is a tablet really worth it?

Tablet PCs are a very funny thing, they have been around for so long and no one has seen a point in them but suddenly when the Apple iPad was released that everyone suddenly finds a use for it honestly is it any good?

Well being one to always hoard new technical stuff when it first came out “mainstream”, I got myself a cheap Android tablet and while it was fine for a couple of things it sucked. While that put me off tablet PCs for ages, within the last few months I got myself a more “high-end” Android tablet which is what this article is based on.

Tasty food is not what you expect

Kentucky Fried Chicken
Kentucky Salty Chicken

As many people may know from reading Tweaked for your Pleasure, I do tend to eat a lot of fast food and other non healthy food. I am sure many of the reasons why people do tend to these food like this is mostly for two reasons;

  1. They do not have time to make healthier food (although it is NOT that hard nor long to do).
  2. They believe that the “healthy” food does not taste as good.

While I can understand the first option, it is the second option I do not understand. While I will agree food like that does taste very nice but it does not last. Now I am not sure if I am the only person who this happens too but when I am eating something like chips & cheese that I will enjoy while a lot of it but after a while I start to get a salty sickly taste that will start to appear.

The yellow belt

I am sure many of you know I have done so many martial arts in the past so I figured rather than talking about depressing matters, things in the news, politics or face-rapping Xenomorphs I figured I would do a light-hearted article.

This story dates back to when I was younger when I studied a martial art known as Tae Kwon Do at a local school. Tae Kwon Do is a Korean martial art with a few core focuses and a grading system that works like this.

  • White
  • White (Yellow Tag)
  • Yellow
  • Yellow (Green Tag)
  • Green
  • Green (Blue Tag)
  • Blue
  • Blue (Red Tag)
  • Red
  • Red (Black Tag)
  • Black (& dans)

I would rather not drink acid …

Bottle of Pepsi Raw.

This is going to be something you will rarely read on Tweaked for your Pleasure but I am going to take back what I wrote in my article called I would rather drink acid. As I am sure you know but a few months ago, in June to be exact, I tried a drink known as Pepsi Raw and it was the worst drink I have ever had.

I mostly stand by that comment but with a slight change. When I had it originally I brought it from a store called B&M Bargains and it in a can and I drank it at the bus stop in the same town I got the drink from.

BurstNET: My Review

Cjb, Fasthost, The Hosting, Shacow, The Planet, Galaxy Solutions, Saidcom, Gretzkyhosting, FDCServers, DME Hosting and now BurstNET have joined the list of past web hosts/data centres that I have used over the years of Tweaked for your Pleasure life and this time I am going to write a little review on BurstNET.

Overall I would have to say my experience was good but there were some hiccups with their service for the price, they charge I don’t expect much else. So, for the review…

Support

I will start that with BurstNET support seems to be quite varied. Overall BurstNET would tend to reply within 1 – 4 hours but there have been times when posting on Web Hosting Talk got them to reply faster than they normally would. Maybe it is because a BurstNET representative is on there and jumping your tickets up but I do not know why.
