Happy Birthday
Feb 6th
On this day of protests and division, I’d just like to remind people that it is the recognised date of the birth of New Zealand. Whether you agree with the terms of the Treaty or not, it doesn’t matter in the greater scheme of things. Today is New Zealand’s birthday. :-P So Happy Birthday New…
When should I respec, and which way?
Feb 4th
Hmmm…. To respec or not to respec, that is the question. :-| Am struggling with the decision of whether to respec to a full feral druid, a hybrid druid, or continue with the full Restoration spec setup I’m currently running. Is a really difficult choice to make. A bit of a history to it so…
My thoughts of Google’s censorship in China
Feb 2nd
I know its been a while since it happened and I’m coming to the argument late, but I wanted to really think this through before I started spouting off about it. Its a pretty serious issue and one that deserves serious consideration. Not just knee-jerk reaction. Google has been required by the Chinese authorities to…
European English
Jan 31st
The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the EU rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty’s Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five year phase-in plan that would be known…
I LOVE YOU WITH THE BURNING PASSION OF 100 RAGES
Jan 30th
So as I sit here in the sweltering sauna that is my room, trying to save as much as I can off the old hard drive before I put the new one in (thankfully I had a nearly full spindle of blank DVDs) I thought I’d share with you all something I found around midnight…
Computer go byebye for a while.
Jan 29th
I find myself in an extremely bad situation today. My primary hard drive is about to die on my main desktop grunt machine and I cant afford to replace the drive at the moment. :-| Worse yet, theres so much data on this machine that backing it up properly is going to take a million…
Design is the starters block for me I think
Jan 27th
All things considered, life is pretty strange at the moment. I got this idea for a new business but I have no idea how to go about getting it started. In fact, I have that same problem with several ideas. The middle part is fine, but the start part is the problem for me. Kind…
Updating… Please wait. Disc shuffling is a wait… Why?
Jan 26th
Can anyone clue me in as to why games have to be so massive now? Some of the greatest games ever made came on a single floppy disc. They were engaging with story lines that kept you coming back for more. In fact, one of the best games of all time was Nethack. Each time…
Recommended daily intake…
Jan 25th
Heh, I’m taking these new dietary supplements starting yesterday. On the box there is a warning that the capsules contain the equivelent amount of caffiene as one mug of brewed coffee. :-) It says users of the capsules should reduce their intake accordingly. So given the dose of the capsules is 3 a day (one…
I’m in trouble ;-)
Jan 23rd
Just quietly between you and me… ;-) When I ordered my copy of Sin City I was also too tempted and couldn’t resist ordering Elder Scrols IV: Oblivion Collectors Edition at the same time. I’m going to be in so much trouble, but it’ll be worth it for sure ;-) Besides, no pain, no gain.…
