Historical Articles / Posts Restored
The last post made me realize that the old template made all the old posts esentially unreadable. You couldn’t scroll down so anything other then the initial screen was only readable via the source of the page. That doesn’t really work for most people. I’ve reposted all 1200+ articles from the old site via blogger import so I’ve now got them all on the new DB. Nothing is tagged, but you can still find them by browsing back through the calendar. I’ll be tagging them with the year at least so the summaries will be browsable via that particular tag.…
It Hertz More Then It Should
So I’ve taken a break from the 3D for better 2D. 120hz is what I’m talking about. I suppose if I put on VSYNC it should now try to do 90? 120? BF3 was surprising. I had been playing with vsynch in order to prevent tearing, but I disabled the 3D, put the glasses in their nice felt bag and tonight was all about the 120hz Battlefield 3. Enabling 120hz for Games There are several steps which you need to do in order to switch between the two modes. One of which is the hertz (naturally). For Nvidia it is…
Video: Seriously? You think you know bad driving?
I saw a few repeats in here, but for the most part… an HOUR and a HALF?!!
Logo Stuff
Here’s some new logos. I didn’t need photoshop afterall; GIMP did me well with these. Couldn’t resist one more idea.
My 3D Aventure in Digitopia
I was accused of trolling for posting what I found while testing a few games with 3D Vision. I don’t take umbrage but it reminded me that this is the first time round for some people. The History Before I address the fad aspect of 3D let me say I am no stranger. It has come a long way since the geForce 3 I had about 10 years ago. It worked, and I guess it never went away, even the test screen for the glasses is the same today as it used to be with a couple extra dynamic lights…
The Viking Kittens Return!
Ok, so maybe they were only just sleeping but here they are: This is an oldie. I remember this being one of the first “viral” media pieces out there. Before shockwave/flash there wasn’t much for embedable media. There was a picture here or there, but high density media was avoided to prevent isolating users with slower computers. Flash changed that and allowed everyone to see the same thing at the same time (upon visiting the site). In any case I had sucked this down a while back and recently found it again while cleaning up the FTP. I hope you enjoy…
I found this from Feb 2008
It was topical at the time, apparently I wrote it up into a txt file and then just uploaded to my server. I recently found it. —————————————- [Feb 2008] —————————————- Everything I’ve looked up on the internet says there is no meaning to Clutch’s song 10001110101. Even the singer says it means nothing in an interview, that some people are disappointed – like they’re looking for some secret code or something. In any case I think it’s a secret plug because of what I found. I was curious because right after he says 10001110101 is “periodic table”. That got me…
EA… Realy?!!
I signed on today for some battlefield 3 and went to check out the patch notes and noticed something else… “shortcuts” yes, for only $6.95 you too can have a whole set of unlocks that others spent hours and hours. The whole point is you would carefully choose what you tried to unlock or try to hone several similar skills to align your goals and unlock as much as you could at once. It is like giving rookies keys to the cruiser.
