  1. Oh man, what a day to be banned from the PC by my wife. NHAT has been re-released...

  2. lost_soul's half-assed solution of the day: There's a hard drive with over 100 bad sectors, making everything run EXTREMELY SLOW. Instead of swapping out the hard drive, I moved the OS to the later half, away from the bad sectors! Now it runs fast and fine!

  3. I can't believe it's taking 8 minutes to download just the screenshots of Briarwood Cathedral, only 2.3 MB. Forget about the FM itself! Wifi in developing countries like Burma has a long way to go... =L

  4. Just bought "Dear Esther" standalone for $9.99 (£7 with bank charges), after watching the cave video -

      Yes, I got it for £1.75 too. And no, it is not really a game, more a piece of artwork in navigable 3D. The graphics are probably the most attractive and realistic I have ever seen.

      They're not fully up to speed for high-performance 3D game support, but they work very well for desktop use. Their binary drivers are faster but sometimes have compatibility problems (like all binary drivers do).

      That's why I always buy AMD graphics cards. nVidia might have better binary drivers, but they don't give a shit about open source (unlike AMD and Intel).

  7. What if TDM/DarkRadiant applied for Google Summer of Code (2013)?

  9. Just 3 working days this week. God save the Queen!

  10. New job! After the summer hollidays I don't have to commute 80 km one way any more :) about 2 hours a day to spend on something more useful...

  11. Solar System is so humongous big.

      All gravitational fields stretch to infinity. They just become insignificant after a large enough distance.

      Perhaps we'll see some breathless tech "journalists" proclaiming that "The Dark Mod is dying", like they do with Google+ every time the usage stats change by a fraction of a percent.
