Eh, do I really have to care that much? Can't I just enjoy a cold one while saving the world by asking:

1972 Zenith Allegro sound system or some other equivalent priced speaker set?

Banned for putting the story first, and the ban last.

Sounds like there are people here that would do roleplaying on the forum if given the chance... Maybe we should have a "Roleplay" section here then...

Going to try and stay awake for a full 48 hours again so I can once again be awake during the day instead of my default nocturnal tendencies...

it's now nearing 6 AM.

That means you are in the same time zone as me... Cool.

What... Have.. I... Done...

 

And a rep for you!

If I lie and pretend to like it, will you give me -rep?

The Asylum - Disturbed

Just finished, I fast forwarded to: The Animal - Disturbed

God of Death... A.K.A. Anubis.

It may be a "hack" site, but it does have a section for programming, and hackers are the epitome of professional programmers. They can link you to resources seldom used, but very useful. They can also help you debug code if you want.

This is another site to try out... http://www.gamedeception.net/content/

(another "hack" site, but some of the best programming/debugging stuff available on the net is there)

Unfortunately this thread has become the same as the "three word story" in that it has ceased being able to make any sense, and is therefore no longer going to have me in it until it returns to something that vaguely conforms to reality.

Hot, dry, dusty, partly cloudy... The worst weather imaginable.

DNF.

1972 Zenith Allegro sound system or some other equivalent priced speaker set? (I'm just going to keep asking until someone answers)

Did you know that eating anti-foaming agents is dangerous?

Also:

Did you know that procedural generation can significantly reduce the amount of memory overhead a game requires?

For example, the game Infinity Online (currently in development) instead of having stored data that is retrieved to index the several thousand star systems (many of which have planets, space stations and cities on them), a highly complicated set of algorithims are used to generate on-the-fly persistent appearances of these star systems. That way, instead of the game having to contain compressed data of many planets, it stores uncompressed data by way of a series of complicated math formulas that create them when needed in a predictable pattern.

These math formulas are easier and smaller to store than the direct data itself. This is one of two principles to why and when procedural generation is used. The other is when unique animations, textures, models or other data, is needed on demand. An example of this would be a program which automatically generates unique humans for citizens in Half-Life 2, instead of the game drawing upon 18 pre-constructed faces and 8 pre-constructed bodies.

Yes I did know that, and considering that Tribes 2 used mostly procedural generation, it was the first really good example of what procedural generation was capable of.

Tried to do the girl from elfen lied and it guessed Reno from FF7. even though the last question was "is your character a girl" "yes" -.-

Yeah, I noticed that too... It seems to ignore it if it has an "Is your character a girl?" question.

Then I have myself, where I end up screwing up my sleep pattern, playing too many video games/watching films/idling time away and not eating healthily, and yet unlike other people who seem content, I do not, my mind screams at me that I really shouldn't be wasting my time. This bothers me. A lot.

 

Still, I try to be productive and try to get things done and learn things. I'm just lazy really. And I despise that aspect of myself.

So similar to me...

I really hate workaholics though, they always seem to put me down because I get bored with work that they find "extremely intellectually satisfying". I'm sorry, but physical labor/filing documents/imputing information into a database does nothing for my mental restlessness.

The only gaming magazine I've read was PC Gamer. Wasn't saying anything important about anything.

PC Magazine (not PC Gamer) had more stuff important to a true gamer.

I don't bother reading stuff from these "gaming" magazines or sites anymore since 90% of the time I disagree with their ratings of games, and 100% of the time they tell me nothing about the game itself that I don't get from the front page of the game's website.

The console stopped being awesome after the N64. Then the only good consoles were the Xbox, PS1, Xbox 360, and PS3. (in that order)

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

The best game ever released for consoles.

Adam Jensen (the new protagonist in Deus Ex: Human Revolution):

Gordon Freeman:

Can't think of any others right off the top of my head... I'll probly post more later on as I think of them.

I put my vote down on Deus Ex: Human Revolution, as I have that game pre-ordered.

With one of the preorder packages or not? If it is one of the preorder packages, which?

if this is true then you can't travel there AT ALL, the only possibility is the folds in space-time, but this could mean he could be in a different time period, let alone universe... or they managed to make the entaglement between particles stable and broke the laws of physics, again.

You just don't understand trans-universal physics at all do you...

"El gato esta en mi pantalones"

From Blue Streak? (Translation: "The Cat is in my pants.", or innuendo translation: "I have a huge dick.")

I have a very basic understanding of Spanish... Given a little time, and maybe a dictionary, I can translate most written Spanish. Spoken I'm quite rusty in, but combine the little I do understand with body language, (which I seem to be fluent in) and I can get the message...

Lit Fuse Films = Bioware.

And that's part of the reason I'm actually looking forward to ME3... They were the only other Machinima that I liked besides Ross Scott.

Because their books are historical as well for the most part, just not as complete, or as well backed by outside sources.

Did you know that these posts don't make me think at all?
