Happy early or belated Birthday... whenever the real day is. Many millions of people were born on April 1st and probably hate it. Too many birthday gags.

I eat relatively healthy compared to most. No fast food. No candy bars. No sodas. Potato chips only occasionally. Ice cream only once a week. But still battling the weight. Mostly its a lack exercise tho. I dont get nearly enough and sit too much at the computer.

Been a very long time since I played UT2K4 sniper. One of these days I will have to check it out again.

No I wouldnt say that. I am putting off various additions until I know whether or not the mod would be used more consistently. I have to divide my time among many different things. This is not meant to be a dig at anyone. Just a matter of whether or not people wish to use it. If they do not then thats ok. Sometimes there are changes I make for game balance reasons but not everyone likes them. That is normal player behavior even for 200 million dollar games much less a free mod. I will be quite frank and say often Activision and other companies remove the balance changes. Not because they are bad but because of complaints. For them its about the money. Since money is not a factor for me it is not. After consideration I look at what is best for the game and mod.

Myself, I think the best OS was Windows 2000. Totally stable, not bloated, and the only thing it couldnt handle was video games. But I didnt use it for that purpose. I first got it for graphics and 3D work and it filled that purpose nicely. If there were up to date drivers for it, it might make Win8 performance look like a snail.

The P90 has a slight max range adjustment of around -20% compared to an M16. Unless you can tell me a good reason why it should have the same range as a sniper rifle. No joke. Anyways if nobody is going to play it because of the ACR thing then I am going to put off any further development of the other things I was hoping to add. With the limited time I have there are other non-cod related projects.

Since it seems the requested TDM gametype on the newer server isnt being used much should I try another standard gametype? Is it the map rotation? I did that last time and it didnt really work then either but I will change it if people want.

iSwatter? I wonder if that is trademarked yet.

You mean you have seen fucking snow elsewhere before? What are you doing looking at fucking snow?

OSX upgrades are significantly cheaper. Albeit there are more of them. Now their OS is "sorta" free. I'm still using 10.6x on my Mac so Im not forced into anything and I wont upgrade in this case. But I dont buy a lot of new software either.

I mean why it happened. Common symptoms. An old example: First, the server crashed. Ok there is a problem. Over time it seemed it could be related to the RC-XD because there was always one running at the time. It happened at random times from player activation to when it blew up. But strangely sometimes it didnt happen at all. It happened more often, or faster, the more players there were. It didnt if the RC was far away from all other players. It did when it got close to them. Also more often on open maps than closed ones. Certain maps in particular. It seemed to always happen the moment it was close enough that another player actually saw it. Those things helped narrow down the problem. It allowed me to force the crash to happen and find the bug. Which in this case required rebulding the model and its skeletal structure.

Its like movies, often the trailers are better.

Never seen a thumb quite like that before. I hope he was wearing protection when using that hammer.

Read this morning that they found a security exploit where attackers can crash servers.

No such thing as cut and dried if people want me to make sure whatever the problem is doesnt transfer to the newer mw2 mod. But if nobody cares then so be it.

An image I did NOT need thank you very much.

Could you elaborate more on that?

BF4 looked cool also.

I am surprised this is still online but its the missing plane. It follows a normal track until just before the midpoint between Malaysia and Vietnam and something happens. For this site when something stops transmitting it switches to a predicted path, which is why it shows it continuing to fly north. http://www.flightradar24.com/2014-03-08/16:56/12x/MAS370/2d9dd5b

Yes that is very cool. I have to bookmark that page. Currently the skies above the US are somewhat light since its past midnight PDT. But Europe and Asia are so crowded you can hardly see the map itself.

Tron is a pretty good movie, if you watch it in the spirit of the early 1980's. These days its pretty corny. I hope they make a third. The second looked fantastic but the only other things I really liked about it were the games and Olivia Wilde.

Not a sight I would like to see. Nor would I want to see pissing liquid soap. But I suppose that way you could clean the toilet while you use it.

I had the soap in mouth thing once because of language. It didnt change on whether or not I thought swearing was ok. Just not to my grandparents. Did that change my behavior? Or did it simply mean it was the first time I segregated people and put them on a list? Maybe it was just an example that I should always show simple courtesy towards others and err on the side of not using it until I knew whether or not that elder was comfortable with it. Parents and grandparents generally are not. Uncles can be a different story and that is one thing I remember. In any case beyond courtesy or simply being nice, which I show to everybody because thats the kind of person I am, for me respect must be earned. I dont care who it is or how old they are. To be quite rude if someone respects another because of physical harm then he is weak by comparison. Its fear not respect. Also, many fathers like to say never throw the first punch but always throw the last. He doesnt mean the goal is to get the other guy to respect you, but to fear you so it doesnt happen again. Maybe its just semantics but if anything I learned by example not swats to the ass. If an alcoholic parent for example sees his young kid take a swig and spanks him, or worse, that likely wont change much of anything. The kid likely will have an alcohol problem himself by the time he is a teenager. The same can be said for an abusive husband or parent. The kids often are abusive themselves as adults. Kids can see through the usual 'do what I say not what I do' arguments. Or since they are mentioned here go back to those 50's and 60's with religiously intolerant parents, or various clergy, that forbade something as simple as dancing or listening to rock and roll. Teenagers did it anyways. The parents didnt know about it but when they did the teenagers were called 'rebellious' or 'disrespectful' and various punitive measures would be taken. Funny thing... I have been told that my mother would swear like a sailor. But she never did around me. Well, maybe a few times when she was agitated at something.

I see alot of comments about strict nuns. Their behavior is probably why many people dont hold them in high regard these days.

Uh, ok. To each his own I suppose. Of course sometimes animals need to be put down. The same goes for whoever wrote this song.
