Anybody know of any multi-language IDEs/text editors that allow you to expand/collapse blocks, show you block lines, maybe alternating blocks colours, etc? (the collapse/expand blocks thing is the main one I'm after).
Needs to be something where you can define the language yourself - define block statements, etc.
Sure I saw something like this ages ago but can't remember where.

Anyone who argues that shackreviews are valid are just lying to themselves. There are 2 reasons to write a shack review: You love the game a ton or you hate it with an internal burning passion. I mean, pick any random game, and it is guaranteed at least 50% of the votes as exceptional.
I still voted for shacknews, but I am guessing gamespot will win.

This soundtrack has some great sounds to it (tell me Track 4 doesn't sound like it belongs in the movie Aliens) and weighs in at an easy to manage 28 megs. Enjoy.

My pirate is on his last legs, and as one final trick I decided to find the hideout of an enemy and take him down.
Problem #1 his hideout is guarded by Indians, which is ok because I can win that battle easily
Problem #2 my pirate can't win the final sword dual even when I CHEAT and use this utility to give me "Skill At Fencing" [ http://www.addictedtopirates.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1136 ] . I've had some tough sword battles, but I can't even get this guy close to finishing him off.
Problem #3: I can't save the game during the Land Battle or Sword Battle, so I have to keep sacking the hideout, attacking the indians, sword duel, lose, repeat.
Should I just give it up? I hate cheating, but this was a serious drag and the first time this game has turned into Not Fun At All.

Also my character is currently experiencing the textbook definition of pain. I have a level 16 tauren druid. At level 12 I was teleported across the continent to Moonglade to learn a new skill (bear form). Well once I got the spell, I figured I was supposed to use my Hearthstone to teleport home. WRONGO! Now at 16 I need to go BACK to learn some new skills/spells. Well apparently I was supposed to find a flight path at Moonglade and didnt. So now I have to WALK halfway across the continent, through contested lands with beasts between 10-20 levels going aggro on me from 50 yards away. ALL my equipment is busted from being killed so many times. After about an hour of walking dying returning walking dying returning Im about 2/3rds there. Grindgrindgrind.

First time today our groups healer suddenly decided he "didnt like playing support" and wanted in on the combat. I'm sure you can imagine how that worked out.
It seems like with a good group, the Wailing Caverns is a pretty nice area to find drops and such, but its been nothing but frustration for me so far.

Blade Trinity is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.
Blade Trinity is almost completely an advertisement for Apple computers, with a pitiful plotline about vampires thrown in, a few entertaining fighting scenes, and special effects.
There is a scene in Blade Trinity where Jessica Biel opens an Apple laptop in the back of a GMC. This scene consists of her using iTunes on this laptop to load mp3's on her iPod that she listens to, and I mean the director lets you KNOW that she wants to listen to her iPod, before every fight she's gets into. This sequence lasts at least 20 seconds (5 minutes in movie time).
There are countless shots where techno music will start playing out of nowhere and somebody will get on an Apple G5 with a widescreen, doing something cryptic and important looking.
The only redeeming points of this movie are the clever and hilarious one liners that Wesley Snipes says perfectly. I laughed out loud at a couple of them. There is a fight sequence at the very end which is also very reminiscent of the first, but it's very short. It almost did it for me.
I thought this was going to be the one to do it. The original Blade movie is still the best ever. Fuck all this new bullshit.

What would happen if I tried to "sell", say, 50,000 experience points for a D&D 3.5 pen and paper campaign? Like, I could make up a little certificate that says "This is good for 50,000 experience points for a Dungeons and Dragons edition 3.5 character." I wonder if anyone would buy it. I could even have some small print on there that says something like "Not good for previous editions of Dungeons and Dragons, or for other role playing games. May be valid for other D20 games; check your rulebooks for compatibility. Good for only one character; cannot be divided up among multiple characters." Even if no one bought it, would Ebay be clever enough to nuke the auction? I think it would be funny to try.
What a waste of mental energy that was.

Is there any way to have windows XP mirror certain folders to another drive? I've got my pictures and other stuff on one drive (separate from either of the windows drives I have) and I'd like to have a folder on one of my windows drives (both 80gig drives) that is a mirror of the most import stuff from my 250 gig drive. Can windows xp do this natively; and if not, are there programs that can do this?
Sadder: Anyway. He had the dog cremated but first shaved the dog (golden retriever) and brings around this little velvet pouch with the dog hair in it.
What: He always walks around and like, sneaks these sniffs in of the dogs hair. It's been over a month now. He still does it. As if it's really no big deal or anything. He calls his other dogs over every now and then and holds the bag to their noses, too.
omfgwtf: Today he asked me if I wanted to smell it so I can "remember and be with annie".
Thank god this girl who is always there when I am (Cubs fans: It's Kerry Wood's wife!) saved me before I had to answer.

My new year's resolution is to get "in shape". the catch is, i'm not overweight, i'm underweight. i'm about 5'9" and 110lbs. i play indoor soccer once a week, so I wouldn't say I'm not physically active. it's been about 8-12 months before i've lifted weights on a regular basis. i just re-signed up at my work gym last night and am trying to work out on a regular basis again.
my goal is to "fill out" my body and gain some weight/muscle mass, so i'm not so skinny. i have lifted weights in the past, so i have a bit of definition in my muscles, but i definitely need to gain weight. can you guys recommend a routine i can get into, which includes meal suggestions so i can accomplish my goal? or should i just sign up for some personal training sessions at the club so they can tailor a program to my needs?
i'm going to a wedding on april 30th where i know i'm going to see my ex-girlfriend, and i want to look wtfbbqhot so she can see what she's missing. it's pretty damn good motivation.

Oh, thanks for letting me know steam.

I looked up hoping for some Combine soldiers to peek out around the corner. But no.

I really wish there was a sports car out there that used gas/electric hybrid technology. I mean you could get decent gas mileage + boosted acceleration power. I guess the only downside is lots of additional weight. Is there ANY car company talking about this?
