Is The Industry Ready For Its 'Game Noir'?

Interesting article..

The game I thought of, reading this, was Max Payne :) The Max Payne series!
Not because of the obvious .. noir story :)
but because the focus was on interesting game mechanics & a compelling storyline

Im really looking forward to more games like this. With fun & innovative mechanics and compelling and interesting story lines.
And I believe the Wii is the most likely platform to have these games. I hope they get the indy games platform going too.

My perfect licence plate :) Id like that!



Rouso s getting Big :) & Thats a regular, big table!

Chemo

Horible Horible Horible

Oracle all the way baby!

I was planning to have it finished by now
but its not, so .. YEAH BABY

.. *sigh*

i have too much problems in my life to write about even one of them
im off to bed

I did it!!

I finally managed to solve this one



It was tough, I had a hard time, but in the end.. it really has a nice mechanism :)
Time for the next one!

(damned pictures are loading SOOO slow - But the gimp cant help that.. cant continue till they re loaded though..)

God I hate that ass homebank software

& even more so when I go trough the whole process & at the LAST moment - the system FUCKS UP
making me have to start over
that sucks
a lot

iBookDB

Im excited & slightly sad right now..

This site is a great idea, a great concept. Its boardgamegeek, its IMDB, .. for books! Its what the internet was missing :) but now its here. And all it needs is people, more people & some sane management :)

I'm sad because I wanted to do this :) I talked to a friend a while ago about wanting to set this up. Sadly enough; that was before life kicked me again. (or I kicked myself again, whatever it is, its not the point - it doesnt matter - its not about who or why - its about putting it behind & going on. .. we ll repair the damage later, when there s time) When I brought it up, there was no time for such a comprehensive project. And now its too late :)
Yet there is no way of knowing if its any good until I can login. They might not be open enough.. Any user has to be able to add a book or writer or alternate title or ... they ll fail :)

Excited! because I really like & need this thing :)

Harlem Globetrotters

I really want to see these guys again!!

I eat 5 year olds for breakfast!

Mini had an Amazing surprise for me today :)

Im incredibly happy :D
teehee

I finally got to paying this months bills..

Most of them late :s

But I really loathe checking my account these days! With money coming from several places (thank you IBO - thats a special governement thing for ppl who start working), most of the time I simply dont recieve what I make before I make SEVERAL phone calls around to who knows! Its frustrating! I'll be glad to be rid of it & FINALLY have a steady income again! Every time I check is another surprise.

I know who to call tomorrow & I'll fucking kill them if I have to sacrifice my Friday afternoon on them again! Each week I spend time on those bastards, fuckwads & cocksuc those people on it cant find any jobs! They need all their time to run after their wealth fare money!! I dont want to start to imagine what it would be like WITHOUT those union guys!

*sigh*
only one more month!

And once I fuckin get those union guys going.. I 'LL FINALLY .. FINALLY!! have the numbers I need to do the math!


I'm also considering doing some advanced math on our spending to get some patterns going.. tracking it all; finding out what goes where when & at what rate. Should be interesting :)

& now enough bitching
I need to get to bed!

Vampire Energy

Whow - Nice to see all that in graphs & numbers!!

ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

sleep

So I made that script I was talking about earlier

& from now on its studying all the way! More than a month left, better sooner than later! I really needed these couple of days though.. to relax the Doom stress.

ANYWHO.
This bash script checks the DHCP page of my DLink router, parses the data & inserts it into a file, using the format required by the linux "hosts" file (you know.. "/etc/hosts") Its not pretty to look at but it gets the job done :)

# Variables

## Location & filename for temporary files
tMap="/tmp/"
tFile="t_hosts"

## Hosts location
hPath="/etc/"
hFile="hosts"

## Webpage with IP info page
IPpage=http://192.168.0.1/h_dhcp.html
IPu=USER
IPp=PASS
IPbase="192.168.0."


## Do not edit beyond this point ;)

if [[ $tMap == "" || $tMap == "/" || $tFile == "" ]]
then
echo "Thank god I didnt trust you to fill these out wisely."
echo " (dont get over confident tough, this is an EXTREMELY basic test!!)"
echo "At least One of the following errors was found!"
echo
echo "* the map and file variable can NOT be empty!"
echo "* the map can NOT be / (the root)."
echo "Since we re doing rm -f, these settings might cost you your OS!"
echo " ;)"
echo
echo $map$file
exit 1
fi


# make sure there s no files that could screw the process ;)
rm $tMap$tFile* -f


# Remove old entries
grep -v $IPbase $hPath$hFile > $tMap$tFile.clean
grep -v "## Generated DHCP entries" $tMap$tFile.clean > $tMap$tFile.clean2


# Add comment
echo "## Generated DHCP entries" >> $tMap$tFile.clean2


# Get IPs from Router
wget -q --user $IPu --password $IPp $IPpage -O $tMap$tFile.router

if [[ -e $tMap$tFile.router ]]
then
grep "dDat" $tMap$tFile.router | grep -v " dDat" > $tMap$tFile

# Parse Files
for lijn in $(cat $tMap$tFile)
do
lijn=$(echo $lijn | grep -v "dDat" | grep -v "=")
if [[ -n $lijn ]]
then

# Get IP
ip=$(echo $lijn | grep -oE [0-9]\{1,3}[.]\{1}[0-9]\{1,3}[.]\{1}[0-9]\{1,3}[.]\{1}[0-9]\{1,3})

# Get Hostname
host=$(echo $lijn | grep -oE [\"][[:alnum:]]\{3,100} | grep -oE [[:alnum:]]\{3,100} )

# Save
echo "$ip $host" >> $tMap$tFile.clean2

fi
done

# Replace old file by the new one
mv $tMap$tFile.clean2 $hPath$hFile
fi


# remove residual files
rm $tMap$tFile* -f

Extreme caution should be exercised when using this script. Its unsafe at so many levels.. Just to name some.. It requires certain user rights to edit the "/ect/hosts". It uses "rm -f". It makes use of several intermediary files. .. Dont use it on a production machine without thorough rewrite for security! (How s that for a disclaimer :))

& who needs SVN when you can post it all to blogger!

Blogging with Prism = FUN
& now off to bed :) With the lil one!

Whow!

I just screwed up my map with scripts - amazing
THIS would be the right time to start an SVN repository; not to have this happen again.
not a great loss; the file I am working on is open in emacs & the rest was working stuff & a script I worked on & started using yesterday. So I still have that one :)

(rm -f $foo$bar* with both $foo & $bar EMPTY - lol)

BUT!
I'm awake now :) I'll just throw all that crap in an SVN & there we are :) No more losses.
then again, between doing & wanting to - there s still a whole lot of difference!
*sigh*

..
and SVN is crap
its just Too CRAP
