A comprehensive guide to travelling.

This article will come in a series of steps. The first will cover a simple aspect of language, the second will cover a more complicated aspect.

First, when abroad, whenever you interact with someone, you must convince them you have absolutely no idea of their language; this may lead them to find an english speaking person you can talk to instead. This saves you actually having to bother learning.

Here is a guide of how to say "My Hovercraft is full of eels" in 51 languages, covering the majority of countries. This basically certifies that the foreigners in question will have no doubt that you do not speak their inferior language.

Happy?

I found this image on StumbleUpon; decided to test it out.

Judging from the screen size etc, it's probably from somewhere around Win '95...

Now, XP:

XP just wants to be happy

Well

My 8800GTX sadly passed away a few days ago, and, after following the electrical overload escalator to that place in the sky, I fitted my old card, a.. erm, well, I don't actually know -what- it is. I know its ATI, but other than that.. it has no markings, and video card testing apps come up with literal random answers.

Anyway, it basically states that the only games I can currently play are Spore, the Sims, and Counterstrike Source. For some reason.

So, if you wanna game of CS:S, catch me on MSN or Steam. Interestingly, xfire does NOT like this 'new' graphics card; it worked perfectly when using the 8800GTX drivers, but now I've installed the ATI generic drivers; xfire literally kills games as soon as they are opened. It is xfire doing it, there's no question of that - it's just damned weird.

Please note - absolutely no games of interest to me for six months, and the card was fine. Fallout3 is coming soon, we get a boom. It's a sad story.

Here we go then, my first shameless plug for a friend.

This is what you get when you mix a arabian prostitute, a computer, and a cracked copy of flstudio in cheltenham. Whaddayagonna do?

Lunar - Two free albums

2008-09-21T00:55:10+02:00

Well, today I ran across one of those bands that likes to give their music away for free in MP3, while also offering a paid alternative.

As usual - I decided to give it a listen, and, for only the second time ever, I'm damn glad I did (first time is Futuristic Sex Robotz - Hotel Coral Essex)

Lunar's albums, "Wall of Sound" and "Hybrid Awaken" are both excellent, and both free.

Described as "An eclectic blend of electronica, rock, dance, ambient, drum 'n' bass and classical", I'd say thats true.
It's a happy Pendulum with more sunshine and violins.

Very cool stuff.

Their site can be found here, give it a go and see what you think.

i was considering reviewing spore, but i didn't really enjoy it.

2008-09-18T23:50:24+02:00

Yeah. So, I installed Spore after playing it at a friends house (due to time constraints I literally just managed to get through the cell stage), but I enjoyed it immensely.

However, after.. well, a more detailed and longer playtime, I began to spot some things I didn't like. After creating my planet "Dogmeat" and sitting through some vaguely pointless videos, I was a small animal in a body of what I presume to be water. Woot, I thought. It's yumtime.

OM NOM NOM, I eat some meat that's casually floating around. Haven't actually figured out why yet, but whaddayagonna do?

A few meals later and a quick grab of some shield thingy that apparently contains DNA, and I finally get to bang another little green fishy thingy. A minute later, I'm a black fish of awesomeness with a pair of spikes coming out of it either side of the mouth. I hope the game continues like this, eh?

I kill some much bigger fish hoping to find some more DNS, which, in fairness, I do.. yummy DNA.
It's kinda annoying to get the DNA in the cell age as some of the faster (fish?) are much faster, and.. you have a tendency to get stuck on those stupid jellyfish things. Not entirely sure why they're there, but hey.

I finish collecting 6/6 of the DNA shields, but I wish I could just carry on playing the Cell stage for a while, it's fun, like Feeding Frenzy, which is a barrel of awesome, kids.
Well, I grow a brain - sucks, eh?

Now I have to grow legs, and advance to the next stage. Naturally, I create a standing creature with two fucking huge spikes and a mouth where it's crotch should be. Should have a laugh with this. This is looking good so far. So, I click next after adding the legs, and begin to wait. Spore crashes. This is basically where the review ends, I'll be off outside now to go rent Clear Sky. I'm glad you wasted at least two minutes reading this. Gay, eh? Well, that's happened at least twice when playing Spore for me, so now you're just as annoyed as I am.

Here's one I made when I played a bit later:
