Dead Fantasy

http://www.gametrailers.com/game/monty-oum/4712

This a mashup between two rather famous and successful franchises, Dead or Alive and Final Fantasy. And imo its indescribably brilliant, so brilliant infarct, that I thought it justified a tumbl.

Hope you like it :)

The Time has Cometh

Indeed. I have a Java exam tomorrow. Hopefully wont be too taxing, but its at 9 am, tooo early zzz :D

Me and my friends had a nice weekend, we all went to the cinema and watched Night@Museum2.0. I have to say, Amelia Earhart was quite attractive… LOL. Then we got some pizza, ate it in Arcath’s garden, went to the pub for a few rounds of pool, a game of dominoes and some card games too. When we got back to Arcath’s we watched Black Sheep, a humorously silly film about a super sheep gone bad, and then we started watching The Greatest Game Ever Played from about half way through. It was a nice film about a up-and-coming golf player, or something, winning the American Open and beating the ‘greatest English player of all time’.

I also moved back to windows (BOOOOOO) cause I felt like installing SimCity 4 (SC4D, and maybe Supreme Commander. I installed putty and got to work on something or another. But it just wasnt that great, one term per program isnt enough. So I went and got Ubuntu for Windows (BOOOOO). I dont really like Ubuntu, but as it was relatively easy to install, I thought I might as well take a crack at it. Another annoying thing about windows, is that the stock sound drivers that came with my mobo periodically break svchost. Every time. No exceptions. I hope the ones from the internet that I just downloaded work without crashing.

I am in the process of re-organizing my web server, so that it looks nicer “behind-the-scenes”, and works nicer too.

EDIT: Update, I have sound working :D, and that Ubuntu for Windows (BOOOO) sucks ass, not even a virtual machine-like jive…

some websites

TED is one of the jewels in my bookmarks, the videos on that site are mostly amazing.  Along that line I have a game I wish to share with you… yeah I know :P but anyway, its called Tangerine Pannic and its just a flash game that you dodge bouncing tangerines by moving your characrter left and right. The combination of music and the little quotes the character produces are just fantastic. Another few sites I love to check out are Zero Punctuation and XKCD, the first being a game reviewer of the highest order, he combines satire and fast paced stickdrawing to produce some of the funniest things I have seen. XKCD is the staple “geeks webcomic” and I suggest checking it out from the very first comic. (other comics I read can be found here).

I also love Linux and the whole ethos that surounds it. Running Arch linux on my main pc and my two eeepc’s has made me realise how terrible windows can be. Two technologies I have come to love recently are SSH and IRC. IRC is one of the first (and imo still one of the best) IM systems (like MSN which it far outstrips), I use the IRSSI client, and have it screened on my friends server so I never leave XD.
