A Series of Tubes

Boo hoo. My server has (once again) stopped working. Some IP issue. 🙁

Well, it’s been a while since I added to this list, but here’s another item that I REALLY WANT: The Ampco 7920 German Type Sledge Hammer. It’s got 23.79 lbs of smashing beauty. Perfect for smashing computers. Plus, it’s non-magnetic, so you don’t have to worry about messing up your hard drive while smashing it.

Holy crap! I can do a 3-ball cascade, but this is just crazy. Really. Watch it.

Yesterday, the Uru community recieveda letter from Rand Miller, announcing the official D’mala Shard for Uru. I’m on there right now, and it’s amazingly populated. The great part is, all you need is uru to get on. No authentication key (which you cannot buy anymore) required! Woot woot.

Today I was accepted to the United Shards, a group of Uru admins who gather online to discuss Uru matters. It’s cool, because it’s really the third-to-last step in completing my Uru server setup. The last two are registering the server on the official list, and getting an adminKI. Those will both happen soon!

02/11/06 – 4:30 PM – First successful multiplayer session! Ironmagma and I were both online today, though there were some VaultManager issues. Oh well.

HAPPYFUNTIME!

I just went back to the site of the second-best web comic on the internet (before it was closed, that is): Squidi.net. It’s now just a blog updated by the ex-author of the comic A Modest Destiny. But the ‘hat’ posts were so powerful that I need to post about them. Read the first ‘hat’ post first, then the follow-up. The first one is the usualy political mumbo-jumbo we get from Squidi (which makes some very strong and good points) (I’m a libral democrat by the way), but the follow-up made me say ‘Oh snap.’ He even posted the idiot’s e-mail address because (to quote Squidi) “While I normally consider email to be private correspondence, Mr. Harter has already expressed his belief that privacy isn’t particularly important.”

The address is Joe_Harter@CINFIN.com and the guy’s name is Joe Harter. He just got owned.

Well, today’s a sad day, and happy as well.

Today is the 2nd anniversary of Uru Live closing. Before I had a chance to play it…

But! Marie Sutherland (of the DRC) has announced that next week something will happen! 😀

Who knows? The ending hasn’t been written yet…

(Here’s my closing monolouge from the wake on Tapestry:
In memory of that great game that was Uru Live, which closed 2 years ago to the day. Although I was never a part of Live, I miss it dearly, and I wish with all my heart that I had felt the call then rather than now. So here’s to the future.
It’s something unprectable,
But in the end it’s right,
I hope you had the time of your life…)

Ok well my Uru shard is finally up and running! 😀
The address is tomatoshard.servegame.org, so if you have UU please log on and register, and leave a comment here! 🙂

HAPPYFUNTIME!

Microsoft has finally released Internet Explorer 7 beta 2. I must say, it has improved a lot since v6, what with consolidated menus, tab browsing, tab previews, and a kick-@$$ GUI to boot! I’ll update my IE when the official release comes out, but until it’s completely skinnable and extendable, as well as when all the security holes are fixed so it isnt as secure as a slice of swiss cheese, I’ll still be a faithful Firefox user.
