Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Jun 11, 2002 6:00pm PDTI'm some kind of commie I guess since NWN doesnt really interest me a heck of a lot. Neither did Morrowind. I guess it's a good thing we've got Jason around so he can keep an eye on those types of games. The closest I get to RPG stuff is Diablo and Dungeon Siege, and I think it's just about a crime to call those games RPGs.

Dear Administrator,
I do not know why but on several occasions, I cannot use at all my hard drive or my email because of a "System Idle Process". I found out that this is the problem by using "Ctrl+Alt + Del" and task list. The problem is that I cannot kill that process. Can you try to solve this problem?

The NT/2K/XP refresh rate bug (60Hz in all games unless the game manhandles the video settings itself) was a "feature", and apparently Microsoft is going to fix it in a service pack. Until they do, there's always http://www.nvrt.net/

Ok, so there was this movie, really fast and speedy, about how young people were dancing at a rave that was in some kind of a mall. This was like super human rave dancing, there were clusters of people just running in circles, motion blur and everything. Then a really ferocious lion, also very blurred, started terrorisin the party, eating people and just running around really blurred. At first nobody notices, they were dancin so fast, but then everybody panics and ... this is no movie anymore. I'm downtown and everybody is scared shitless of the lion. A bunch of us hide in a really good place, but I have this dilemma since I'm getting married tomorrow and have to make it, wich mean I have to get out ther with that lion and motion-blur my way to the wedding.
This was all very cool, a really exciting dream...
I give it 4/5 stars, ****
...and I'd like to see this movie for real.

donnacha points to this ZDNet story which says that hackers have built a Divx player for Xbox. "As previously discussed ( Divx - The Real Xbox Killer App), the ability to play reasonably high-quality films, speedily burned onto inexpensive CDR media, is going to make (modded) Xbox ownership a far more attractive proposition. This will take Divx beyond the desktops of those with broadband connections and into the living rooms of those who don't own computers. Expect to see a resurgence of Xbox sales and much confusion in MS as to whether or not this is a good thing."]-

I'm sorry, but if you are stupid enough to smoke, you should get no money from the tobacco companies. How could someone ever think that breathing in smoke would be harmless? *sigh* Such is the way of today's litigious world.

I've always tried playing around on guitar, it's fun once in a while.
Today tried playing Stairway, just the intro, I already know some of the chords later in the song.
This is fairly difficult. I can't play it, but that's no surprise. I know a guitarist that can, but it's tough. I'm sure there's at least one of you out there that can play it "perfect" and probably say "I could do that!"
The thing is, Page didn't just play the song, he wrote it. That's why Led Zeppelin truly amazes me.
Not only is their stuff amazing, it's hard asa hell, and it's theirs.
