  1. Minecraft

    I seem to have a zombie problem in my cave system, I have walled them in for the time being but having opened up a few caverns there are a lot of dark spots. Also there is much gold ore, redstuff ore and lava, so if anyone fancies helping themselves get stuck in... take a left at the skull, past the burning bush and keep walking, you'll see my mine entrance in the sheer cliffside.
  2. Minecraft

    Hmm, the minecraft site server is down and I can't log in to the multiplayer game. Looks like the game does an authentication lookup as it boots... balls! My lovely cave will have to wait.

    Balls, missed it! Work at that time of night really does suck.

    What bike do you have? I've just picked up a new road bike and am gradually building up the miles, it's been about ten years since I've ridden a bike with any regularity so I can appreciate the 'body falling apart' feeling... S.
  5. APB - All Points Bulletin

    Well, piss..... It's a bit dog eat dog out here in the big bad world, survival of the fittest and all that. It seems to me that Realtime have over reached and put their eggs in one basket. Kinda wish I'd dropped my thirty quid on a good indie game now. The APB blog is quite upbeat about the effect it'll have on the game, but to be honest, my interest has wained and it'll take a lot to win it back. http://eu.apb.com/en/news/announcements/2010/08/17/the-future-of-apb I feel sorry for the developers who've been fucked over, that's a lot of people to dump into what must be a pretty tight employment sector. Hopefully there will be a crop of indie studios popping up out of the redundancies. S.

    I know not to look at that, it's like being sent the Tubgirl link, kinda makes you feel violated from afar. bleugh.

  10. APB - All Points Bulletin

    Lonely! Well, it's just not that good, I've played it for about 25 hours now and two things spring to mind as problems. The repetitiveness of the missions is really high, and the small reward you get for grinding through them makes it all seem a bit futile. The other problem is the driving and shooting, It's just so unsatisfying. Shooting is little more than spraying bullets in a general direction and the driving feels just as vague. I'm probably going to save my game time for a few months and try again, to see if any updates have improved things. Right now APB = 4/10

    Awesome, I love those DC3s, went up on a 'pleasure flight' in one 'pleasure' is stretching it, but it was fun none the less.
  12. Books, books, books...

    I don't think Richard Morgan has written a bad book, Altered Carbon is great, The Steel Remains is the last one I read, a bit more fantasy rather than the Science Fiction, but sill great. I recommend anything in these two photos, they represent my favorite book shelf.

    You could open her up and re-seat the video card, probably only the one screw and it'll pull out. My video card tends to work itself loose if I move the case around too much. The big problem I have is that if I take the computer anywhere in the car I have to take the heat sink of the processor, it's that heavy it could crack the motherboard with the vibration.

    I whole heartedly agree with this, it'll change your perspective on life. I too wandered around the museum with a tear in my eye. The memorial garden held and exhibition when I visited, it was heartbreaking to read the diary of a woman who remembers her mother teaching her at 9 years old, and her sister at 7 years old, how to cook rice and repair clothes as she lay in incredible pain, dying of radiation poisoning and burns. With all that weight of history, Hiroshima is a wonderfully serene place.

    Dude, that's some shitty news, I lost my grandfather last year, a similar situation to your nanna. The funeral was such a hard thing to attend but I'm so glad I did, I got a much better picture of my Grandfather, as a husband and a father, all the things you don't really appreciate when they are still around. best wishes dude.

    So, err, not one of these then?

  19. Buying or building a PC

    I built my pc myself, but cheated by buying a bundle from overclockers.co.uk, this kinda thing. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-046-OE They run the components together and set up the over clock, so it makes the experience a little less risky if you are not so sure about designing your own spec.
  20. Buying or building a PC

    Possibly it's a temperature warning, with a lot of load you might be cooking the CPU a little. Do you have any system monitoring software installed? When my pc starts smelling hot I open the side panel and let some of the smoke out, it seems a little happier after that.

  23. Mice for gamers.

    I'm warming to the idea that a better spec mouse is going to elevate my FPS skills to that of a school kid on their summer holidays. I currently use a no-name piece of crap that has the slackest scroll wheel known to man, I routinely end up chucking a med pack at my assailant in Battlefield: BC2 instead of the intended hail of bullets. Have any of you folks had any experience with so called 'gaming' mice? Any recommendations would be fantastic to hear as this is a new area of gaming for me. S.

    Is that technically a 'cock ring'?
  25. Life

    Thanks for the supportive words guys you are all too cool for school. Just got back from the doctors and he has diagnosed cysts on my epididimus (sp) totally normal, nothing to worry about and he sees them on a weekly basis... So I don't have cockrot! So I'm glad that that's my little drama over with.
