  1. Sorry I can't remember who built it, but they started it about when I started my lighthouse at spawn; it's awesome. It's over here:

    It's THQ week on Steam, today Metro 2033 is 75% off. You should buy it.
  3. Just finished one half all of the yellow hub rail line to the Bioshock Lighthouse. It's a dual lane line with each tunnel coming in at ~1.97km (~1.22 miles); at 2 blocks high that means I removed just under 4,000 blocks! (Then replaced half that many again in tracks, plus more for torches.)

    Also how it's name has a double meaning in Japanese. Siri has to be pronounced shiri due to the writing system, shiri in Japanese means "buttocks; behind; rump; bottom".

    To be fair, Battlefield 3 is a beta at the moment, so beta drivers for a beta at least makes some sense. There is supposed to be an official patch before it's release. I think it's more of a reverse effect, where NVIDIA and ATI are constantly trying to optimize their drivers for what new game engines are doing.

    You'll probably have to install beta drivers, especially if you're on an ATI card.

  8. Plug your shit

    I've got this Flickr account. I do it for a hobby at the moment, but I hope to make it a profession at some point in the future. Feedback welcome!
  9. Yep, I replicated that second video's schematic. Fantastic design. Not sure how you'd go about a BigDog. Yo tabacco, can I get privileges for lance_north? He's a friend in real life and pops in now and then to help me with redstone projects.

    Yep! Textile was my favorite, for sure.
  12. I built a new and improved lighthouse just near the spawn, if it's not functioning when you see it head upstairs and hit the button marked START.

    The age of consent is 16 nearly everywhere, although 18 is also common. In Australia it's a little complex with it being 12 through 18, depending on the age of the 2 people involved and depending on the state, in Victoria it is thus: In short, age of consent laws be crazy.

    You can listen to and purchase that song on Bandcamp here or on iTunes here. So worth it.

    You can get the BF3 beta for XBox 360 for only $US53,687,091.19!
  19. I guess this fits in here: "who killed video games?” (a ghost story) (It's multi-chaptered.)
  20. Life

    I've thought about that quite a bit actually, I feel like I should have some note or something that my family can use to get onto my computer and post a thing on a list of sites so that people would know what happened to me. It's very weird.

    Upper left wisdom, lower left wisdom and upper right molar. The molar got taken out because it was never going to fully erupt and also had a wisdom tooth above it, now that the molar is gone there's a good chance that the wisdom tooth will come down and do what the molar should have in the first place. So hopefully i'll have an actual useful wisdom tooth.
  22. Life

    Got out of hospital yesterday, had to have 2 wisdom and teeth a molar taken out of my face. My face was still partially numb when I went to bed, but now the numbness is gone and the pain has come instead. Panadeine Forte is my friend. (High concentration codeine tablets for you Americans.)

    I'd like to see a visual representation of the activity in your brain as it melts.
