Suggestions & Requests / Re: Reversable gravity

« on: May 31, 2010, 11:37:22 PM »

I was thinking that if you made a vehicle that moved the same way the player did, but moved around like the gravity jeep, you have "antigravity" really easily, at leas the model can turn. Without crouching but that's very minor, and might be fixable, I don't know for sure. You could even set the map's density to the same as the player (as in space maps), creating zero gravity, then use scripts to set velocity of the player and such. Could be interesting if somebody pulled this together.

Not that harmful.

I know, they don't actually do much, but it's still pretty cool how it gets them.

Star Wars, yes. Runescape, no, just no.
Anyway, back to the topic.
When I was about four years old, my favorite insult was "scruffy-looking nerf herder".

I like things like Spybot Search & Destroy, TrendMicro Housecall, Malwarebyte's Anti-malware, and I've heard many good things about HijackThis. I haven't really used any of these except for the occasional scan, except I have S&D set on a schedule, and it catches everything, even gets tracking cookies.

If TOS's are the law, then we're all screwed.

It's not really "legally", it's not the kind of legal where you go to jail or some stuff. Not really what I was trying to say, more like you have to update it or your account gets removed, or something like that.

Does Dwarf Fortress count as a sim? I think it does.

Keep it for a while, then sell it when you need money, but keep it for at least 20 years, see how valuable it gets :D.

If you have enough money to blow on this, go buy these, and give us pictures of your epic creations.
These are the most epic D&D tiles I have ever seen. The sets themselves are something like $100 each.

If anybody is curious you can find a collection of viruses on this website http://vx.netlux.org/. No, the site is not infected, they host zips with viruses in them. Your AV could block the zip, depending on which one you have (Avast does). Useful if you want to test your AV against specific threats.
If it has to be said, only download these if you know what you're doing, the viruses won't do much in the zips, but for forget's sake don't open them.

I have heard that REM sleep is more restful than other sleep. I'm not sure if it is actually more restful, or if the body just thinks it is.

I think I can understand why the pic showed profanity in 'Rick Astley'. Would you want a child to see RickRolled? But I well understand that the moderators are stupid.

Oh noes, a rickroll!

There's actually a clause in the Facebook ToS that says you have to keep your information up to date. So yes, you legally have to update Facebook every time you move. Look at the terms, look under "Registration and Account Security", number 7.

Holy stuff, that thing is almost 30k pixels long. Also, the bottom part of that is not longcat, that is tacgnol.
