by Maarten Goldstein, Jan 05, 2006 6:20am PSTFinally threw out my Christmas tree this afternoon. January 5th, tree complete dried out, figured it was about time! Some concrete high-def DVD release info out there finally, good to see. Really though, hatred for the fact that there are still two formats. I really wanted to get straight into the high-def stuff since I have a HDTV and all, but now I'm just going to wait and see. Hopefully early signs of a winner won't take longer than a year.

Holy cow. Watching this Xantim guy's video on Warcraft movies.com. It's the highest downloaded video atm.
He's a High Warlord Shadow Priest on Deathwing server. Take a look at his gear! That's some awesome awesome gear, he'd be so freakin' hard to take down with all that + damage!

Possible non-crit mindblast(at it's highest)
MindBlast 531
Ephemeral Power 175
Unstable Power 280
+ Damage from Items - 229
Total - 1215
That's without calculating shadowform or the + shadow damage increase from the shadow line. Jesus.
Also the gear has tons of +Healing as well, a minor mount speed increase, 50% chance for MindBlast to not get interuppted. 0_o

Yesterday i downloaded the demo for fight night, which was pretty awesome. I'm not sure if i'll buy it, but i had fun beating the crap out of roy jones jr and landing haymakers. There are a couple of other demos i still need to download and check out.
I also found out that street fighter 2 will be available sometime soon, which is just all sorts of cool. I dont know of xbl arcade will grow as fast as i'd like, but so far it's looking like the titles they want to add are quality ones, which i'm happy about.
I guess i see it as having huge potential. Game demos coming out before the game is released? How long has it been since we saw that? How reassuring is it that i can download a game trailer on my xbox 360, see how awesome a game is, and know that i can run the game and it will look exactly like that?
And how cool will it be when the digital cable tuners are released for MCE? Man, i cannot say how amped i am about all the doors that are being opened by xbox360. I hate to sound like a fanboy but right now i'm pretty sold on this thing.
If only it was quieter....

Temple level is hard! I got one of the viri near the start location, but the other two are quite hard to reach (plus they re-generate the virus near them, making it all the more difficult).
I'm sure I'll get it, damn fun game tho.

Ok, let me do this correctly.
In celebration of Dreamhost upgrading everyone's account to atleast 1 TB of bandwidth, I have decided to post another Avena Lee (the asian braces chick) scene I found on my PC. I was planning on doing it later this month but now that I've been given all this bandwidth might as well blow it now.
But I have a question first. The file is split into 5 files. Would you prefer them separately or all in one RAR? Here are 2 screencaps from each file to make your decision. The first file is just an interview and strip. Second file is more interview (seems to be a repeat of file 1), beginning of BJ. Third file is continuation of BJ and beginning of fucking. The rest of the files are just fucking.

Do XP and Win98 not like each other? I'm trying to share a printer on my XP machine so I can print stuff from my wireless laptop running 98se. I have items on both machines shared, file/print sharing enabled on both. Tried disableing both xp and router firewall..no joy.

After seeing a lot of recent previews about GalCiv 2, I decided to install and play the demo of the first one. I kind of enjoyed the beginning, but it got really boring to me really fast. It was like a Civilization game, but the expansion and unit building was so slow that it felt like the first hundred or so turns absolutely nothing happened. Does the game get any better? I really love the turn based empire building genre, but if the game is that slow paced and dull throughout I don't know if it's worth any more of my time...

How do you bypass the startup screen in windows?
I installed .NET on my main machine to support the Media Center connect for my 360, and ever since that, when the machine went into screen saver, when I wiggle the mouse, it came back to the Welcome Screen, you know the one that shows what accounts are available and how many programs are running. I've only got the one account, so I click on it and Windows comes back up no problem. Well I fixed that in the screensavers options, but the computer also showed the same screen when I booted it. No password needed, just click on the account. Well I wanted it to boot straight into windows, so I found the option under User Accounts > 'Change the way users log on or off' and turned off the 'use welcome screen' option.
That was last night, now I boot it up and now instead of the Welcome screen, it's showing the me Username/PW screen like when you hit CRTL+ALT+DEL. I've never set a PW on this machine, except maybe for when I installed Windows, since the only account is the Admin account, but I've tried every password I've ever used and none of them are working. :(
So how do I get past it :(
