Ponderings
Jan. 13th, 2011 10:06 amThings that seemed so important when I was younger no longer seem so.
Have I learned wisdom, or just apathy?

Note regarding Dreamwidth
Sep. 13th, 2010 05:48 pmJust to say I've now properly started adding DW to my reading list. I'm still based on LJ for the moment, but I've slipped further towards a switchover. If anyone has DW journals that want to add me, I'm nadriel there too.
Amusing appliances...
Aug. 23rd, 2010 09:41 pmMy parents have just bought a new microwave. On the front, it actually has a button labelled "Chaos Defrost".
I so want to press that button...

Bizarre music request...
Jun. 16th, 2009 10:15 pmOkay, there was one thing I liked about the Ghost Rider film. The music that played when the old Ghost Rider and the new were riding to the Final Boss fight (tm).
Does anyone either have it on mp3, or know who it was by and what it was called? It's not on the Ghost Rider OST, annoyingly...

You are Jean-Luc Picard
Click here to take the "Which Star Trek character am I?" quiz...
This amused me, mainly for managing to get a tie between Picard and target practise...

Okay, this will probably mostly appeal to those who like anime (in particular parodies thereof). Although there are various geek references too.
Anyway, there's a game called Billy versus Snakeman. Which is in no-way a parody of a popular anime involving spiky-haired ninja and creepy other ninja who has a snake fetish*.
There's also no subsections involving detergents**. Or books that are unexpectedly deadly when combined with writing implements***. I think they have something involving self-referencing MMOs**** just introduced, and they're working on a faux-pirate bit*****
Anyway, if you want some random fun, and want to help me out, feel free to start playing this game- if you use the link I'm about to provide, and stick with the game past a certain point, I get some small shinies.
Also, if you join the village I'm in (Berserk Village- the Village Hidden in Rage), I get to help you out too.

Oyster woes
Feb. 26th, 2009 08:38 amDid you know that an Oyster card can just fail?
Yeah. Mine did, at London Bridge Station.
Was able to get replacement thanks to registering appropriately, but still, not a fun start to the day.

Thoughtful
Jan. 28th, 2009 12:18 amI'm still fairly sure I'm not where I'm supposed to be in life.
Buggered if I know where that actually is though...

Happy Christmas...

Okay, I've been poking at this on and off for a while now, and it's got to the point where I'm stumped.
Several of my games are unplayable (examples include Neverwinter Nights 2 and The Witcher (although I don't care so much about the latter, as it wasn't that good).
Whilst the sound is fine, the animation is jerky, and the response to mouse clicks slow. And cut-scenes are a nightmare.
As far as I'm able to tell, all drivers, particularly sound and graphics are up to date, and my DirectX is the latest version I can run on XP.
So, any suggestions/solutions?

Final thought for the day...
Sep. 2nd, 2008 11:58 pmIs it better to strive for grand goals and only partly achieve them, or strive for small goals and succeed entirely?
