Well, got the last bit of swag from TF2 that I could. Got a nice cursed pyro soul! I can live with that. Now I can go back to playing other games…
Played with my new DigiTech DSP unit tonight. Been enjoying the random voices I’ve been able to come up with. Gives my voice a nice boost too without any hiss. Money well spent. If I’m not being lazy tomorrow I might take a pic of my new setup.
I have nothing to say. I’m just gonna leave this here. I’ve left it as a spoiler as it contains crude language. 😛

A constant internet connection to use the features on your gaming mouse? Fuck that static is all I have to say.
Bit old, but still very valid. Croteam, the creators of the Serious Engine and the Serious Sam games have spoken out about Windows 8. At least one of them anyway…
I have to apologize in advance for keeping off topic, but I would very much like to clear this one thing. I think that this is very important as there are “under the hood” motions related to Windows 8 that are hidden and not well understood even by many developers (yet), and certainly not by most gamers. Pardon me if this turns out to be a long post, but it is a complex issue. I’ll highlight only the most important sentences if you want to skip the details.
Gabe Newel did not overreact. What you don’t see here is that, under the hood, the new tiled UI is a means for Microsoft to lock Windows applications into a walled garden, much like the one on iOS. There is this “small detail” that Microsoft is not advertising anywhere, but you can find it dug deep in the developer documentation:
One cannot release a tiled UI application by any other means, but only through Windows Store!
I cannot even begin to stress out just how horrible this idea is! There is no side-loading, except for corporate use inside one company, and that works only on the enterprise edition of Windows 8. Do we all understand what that means? You cannot download an application from the Internet and run it on your computer. You have to get it from Microsoft’s store. Even if it is a free app!
If it was just about “being downloaded from Windows store”, it would not be a problem. It would be nice to have a common hub to download things from. But to get an app onto that store, it has to be certified by MS. This means bringing the “console experience” onto your desktop. Each app that you will get through the Windows Store will have to adhere to certain requirements imposed by MS. So far, we know that they’ve banned mature games, like Skyrim, CoD, and Serious Sam.[*] They have forbidden modding. They could very well forbid Open Source if they want. But even if these terms were not there, this is still a certification system. With all of its downsides, including uncertain release dates, rare and late patches, and everything turning out to be more expensive and sucking more.
While, theoretically, desktop applications are exempt from these requirements, it looks more and more like just a foot-in-the-door technique. A large number of developers have expressed their concern with possibility that, probably in Windows 9 or something like that, the ability to get even desktop apps in any other way than through Windows app store may very well be removed. When that happens it will be too late.
I would not invest into supporting the tiled UI apps (which MS now conveniently calls “Windows Store apps” – does that ring a bell?), until MS removes the requirement that they have to be shipped through Windows Store on desktop at least – and thereby remove the requirement of certifying them with MS. Certification is a broken concept and should be abolished.
Now, while in current state Windows 8 do look like they support plain desktop apps seamlessly, the removal of start menu and use of “charms” even on the desktop looks like a pretty blunt attempt to force users to “get used” to the tiled UI. It would be fine by me if it wasn’t for the aforementioned certification issue.
So, it is a vicious circle. And not an accidental one. This one was carefully designed to be that way. I say: no thank you, I’ll skip on that one.

[*] Yes, I know that the PEGI-16 limit is supposed to be lifted to PEGI-18, but this is only an announcement, and we didn’t see the new terms yet. There could still be another fly in the ointment. Note that besides the bare rating, they also disproved profanities, drug references, and various other things like that in terms that are separate from the rating requirement. If they don’t remove all of that, a game may satisfy the ratings yet still fail the cert. Worst thing is for such things you simply cannot know what they will allow until you submit, which is terrible.
I’ve been pondering for awhile over some recent reading material in various places. Such as this and the comments that followed, this video and thread, and this link in the 2nd page of the thread.
Man I’m happy that I own my own servers. If I ever have an asshole come in to cause any form of grief I can not only get rid of them in an instant, but have some quality fun at their expense. I want people to have fun in games, and if you come into my house and start shitting all over the place then I have every right to summon as many supertanks as I want. What’s that? If I mute someone it will solve everything? I just so happen to have that option at the server side!
I’m glad Microsoft is finally cracking down on these assholes. If I had to deal with that drivel on a daily basis I’d probably throw the console out the window. I guess it really does pay to be a PC nerd. That and servers are fun to tinker with. 😛
Got my laptop prepped for work tomorrow. 🙂 Maybe I’ll have some fun killing time.
A guy I used to blog about in the past (a creepy old asshat who kept trying to woo me with valentines/christmas presents or money) has returned to my radar. He gave one of my coworkers a card to give to me and claimed he has been a friend of the family for 3 years (and did an excellent job fucking up my name). So now he’s fantasizing about being friends with my family… Now I know he’s insane. Work itself was fine tonight though.
Didn’t do much else, although I did do an experiment I’ll have to film sometime. How many pumpkins does it take to defeat an eyeball monster? Click to see.
