wtf. why can't it at least have auto-pause at the start so i can see where the fucker who's going to one shot kill me is, before he does it? god damn cock gobblers.
is there anything obvious that i'm likely missing (playing as a vanguard)? i'm auto-upgrading xp points, and i'm using the rb shit (warp, marksman, shield boost).
raaaaaaaaarrrrrr. if it wasn't for the enemy ai being too stupid to open doors i wouldn't have even made it as far as i have. also, my squad mates don't listen to me, are homos, and die too much. oh and THERE'S NO ENEMIES WITHIN 3 ROOMS, PLEASE LET ME SAVE NOW SO I DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT PART AGAIN WHEN I DIE. AGAIN.
I'm going to have to make a video of me jumping up and giving the finger to the TV. more rage than that tubby german kid who beat the shit out of his monitor.
but on the other hand, let me tell you, i'm extremely good at dialog trees.

I'm making a website for a friend where he reviews and interviews a bunch of metal bands. I've got all the HTML and CSS down and its looking pretty good.
But I want to add some PHP include type stuff so it's easier for him to keep it updated.
I don't know much PHP and I was wondering if its possible to have it automatically include the latest interview into the page.
So if I had interview_01.php, interview_02.php and interview_03.php, is there a way, without a database, to get it to look through the files, find the one with the highest number appended to the end and insert it's contents into the page?
If it can't do that then can I get it to look at a file with a bunch of links in it and use that to find the interview to insert?

"Multilevel cell chips hold two (and soon four) bits of data per cell. The chips aren't as reliable as single-level cell memory, but the error rates are small enough to make these types of drives more than adequate for the notebook market, he added."
I thought one of the advantages of solid state drives was that really you wouldn't have to worry about mechanic failure like you do current hard drive.. but does the paragraph above indicate that we may still have to worry about "bad sectors" and the like on solid state? Not played with any SSD's yet.. guess I'll have to start reading up.

a quick reboot showed the temp at 89C (idle)
a power down and open up showed the case to be full (no kidding) of dust. if i had more time i would have taken pix but suffice to say it was literately full of dust .
now that ive spent 45mins cleaning it out (i guess i should dust the house now and go cough for a week ) it seems to be working fine.
