Windows 8 killed my dog..

I seen Windows 8 with my own eyes, it looked like arse, hid all my stuff, took my car keys then used it to tear up my lawn. killed my dog and ate a baby right n front of my very eyes.

and this was before it got to the so called thing it has as an “interface” now :/

 

Now that was worse! ugly blocks taking up most of the space, no desktop, and when u do find the desktop, or whats left of its still suffering carcass u find its been stripped also of its manhood..

sorry but windows cant get its startmenu up anymore, its been eaten by Harpies.

So back to its supposed default interface (hell no it sucks!), I think they call it “mosaic” or “random strewn beermats by a pisshead” or “here because we think your stupid we did this”, it has a tiled wall of thing that are no longer icons. each one screaming out for its life to be ended, and one or two telling u to worship Satan (its true).

 

also here is a report from the BBC about what Gabe out of Steam strip clubs says about it.

 

All in all its safe to say I fucking hate Win8 and hope it dies a painful death more than Vista did.

And no doubt im gonna be fixing peoples PC’s to put them back to win7 when they find out the hard way :S

To these people the words love, care, and empathy have no place in a dictionary (not that they would bother reading one).

So I’m sure quite a few of you heard about the shooting in Colorado. One of the things that happened during the shootings was brave men giving their lives to save their wives or girlfriends. As tragic as it is, it was also very noble, honorable and heroic of them, and they will be remembered for it. This asshole of the century on the other hand has a different perspective.

So… These men lost their lives and these women lost the men they loved, and James Taranto is hoping they’re worthy of anything? What the hell is wrong with these people? I’ll bet this chicken shit would run out of the theater screaming like a little bitch.

I hope that one of these days that these women hopefully visit him to show him how “worthy” they are. Jesus Christ, of all the people that deserve to be drug out into the street and beaten with a salty glass covered club… People like him have no love or care in their heart.

Shutting Down Descent

Relating to the Myst Movie post I did earlier. it seems both the website and the thread at the MOUL forums have been removed. Link to Chogon’s post.

I’m removing this thread because I was requested by both sides of this issue to do so. At least until they have worked things out. And it is not because of what any of the fans have posted.

I would like to also ask that y’all please do not post copies or links to copies of what was posted in this thread or in reference to this thread or deleted blogs about this thread… Ok, that is a worded a little strange but you get the idea. Please let them work things out.

Thanks,
Mark

Edited for grammar.

Nothing like silencing a thread to get more people to speak. I wonder if anyone will follow suit.

The Myst Movie aka “The Great Shaft”

When it comes to making movies based on games, Hollywood seems to have no issues with sacrifice. Sacrificing people or even storyline just to make a quick buck.

In this case, two fellows by the name of Patrick A. McIntire & Adrian Vanderbosch started a project to make Myst into a big movie deal.

In October of 2009, Mysteria Film Group was approached by Roserock Films (headed by Hunt Lowry) to discuss a partnership.  A meeting in December of 2009 sealed a partnership not only with Roserock, but also with Gran Via Productions (headed by Mark Johnson).  The three companies have been working together to further develop the property in preparation for pitching to studios.

Well, they would be anyway. If they didn’t resign from the project. An announcement was made over at the MystOnline forums, posted by Isaac Testerman.

I don’t think this is the time or place to get into the details, but Cyan ultimately came to the decision that the best thing for the property was to have Adrian step down as MFG’s lead producer, and have me step into those shoes.

Their own idea that they presented to Cyan Worlds, and they end up not only changing the original story but they also end up getting rid of the people who originally spent years working with them on it?

This has generated quite a mixed set of emotions in what’s left of the Myst fanbase. Some fans who have been dedicated to Cyan Worlds are now questioning them, accusing them of throwing Adrian and Patrick under the bus just so they can make a profit, some fans don’t know what to think, then there are the fans that still back Cyan 100% no matter what, and then there are some who don’t blame Cyan, but rather Hollywood as an influence.

We may only have two posts to go on regarding what happened. But from either side it seems that two dedicated fans that wanted to see something come to life, met their own version of “The Great Shaft” as quite a few others in the Myst/Uru community have met in the past.

Update

You can now sign a petition to support Adrian and Patrick here.

Are you fucking serious? / Work2

In disbelief.

I’ve been in serious thought for the last 24 hours. I learned last night that I’m required to go to my boss whenever I want a raise. This isn’t something that was documented anywhere, in fact I figured that it would kick in eventually. My mother works at the same place and she never had to request a raise. It just happened. The only time I’ve ever gotten a raise was whenever minimum wage went up. I’ve been pulled aside when my wages were dropped. But not raised…

They have no problem cutting hours, understaffing people, having them do the jobs of multiple people, cutting wages, forcing them to do shit that they don’t want to do. But they can’t even so much as give people a raise when it’s due.

I’ve been contemplating my next move. I’m either going to warn them that I’m looking for another job again, put in my two weeks notice and tell them to piss off, or be deathly quiet about it until I can get a confirmed hire.

Five years of me busting my ass for them and coming in at all hours to cover for people, five years of doing shit that I didn’t even want to do just so they can make ends meet, and in the end there’s nothing to show for it. On the bright side this might motivate me for taking a few college classes. Maybe get into the store that’s closer to home.

Portal 2 goes to space?

From the Portal 2 blog:

Thanks to an anonymous tech at NASA, Wheatley is actually going to actual space. This Friday at 10:06 EST, the Japanese HTV-3 resupply craft to the ISS will launch the above panel into space. Though mankind will surely regret giving Wheatley a celestial perch to plot his next move, we here at Valve are mostly just impressed with NASA’s bold, unprecedented resupply craft numbering scheme. And please note that when we mentioned an “anonymous tech at NASA” we weren’t kidding: NASA in no way officially endorses secretly laser-engraving characters from Portal onto their spacecraft. Believe it or not, they don’t even officially endorse Portal 2, despite the fact that it’s a really excellent game.

I’m at a loss for words on this. It’s truly amazing that someone at NASA managed to pull this off! Hopefully they won’t get sent to android hell for their defiance.

Final Stage in Paris! Drink Up Meh Hearties!

So nice to know you, Tour de France!  Today is the final day of the Tour de Underpants and I will miss it so much! I will be taking a much-deserved blogging break until the Olympics in London begin! Meh hearties are in luck because this lil Ettetram has also been to London, so I have plenty of ‘insightful’ comments to share, such as successfully navigating the Port-a-Loo in WaterLoo Station! Wheeeees!

Since today is the finale of the Tour, we must have Champagne!  The Wine of the Day is Pol Roger Non-Vintage!  Delicious, complex layers of light green apple, vanilla, oak, mature mushroom, and chalk with a hint of bright lime citrus make this an excellent Champagne with most any meal, by itself, or out on a picnic or camping!  Have a fun adventure and bring the Pol Roger and Wiggo too!  Yays!

Stage 20 begins in Rambouillet, winds along the Seine River to finish on the amazing Champs-Elysees.  Will Wiggo win the Tour de France today?  Only time will tell!!!  So party on me hearties with the Drunken Gaming Corner!  Yays!!

They are cruising along through a wooded area with the riders chatting with each other and shaking hands with the peeps in the team cars.  What a great race, everyone!!!!! Nicely done and way to overcome many challenges including nails on the course and many many crashes!!!  See many of you in London Town!

 Now Team Sky is posing for a pict as the cruise along a straight away.  Lookin great guys!!!  Wheeees!

 Someone is munching on a power bar as they ride along.   nomnomnomnom!

 Ooohhh, epic Palace of Versailles, located about 15 miles outside of Paris!

Nice easy ride along the River Seine as peeps pack in on the bridge to watch!  Cool Radio France building!  Now they are in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower as they continue up the Seine River. 

Now they are ramping up the speed on the Champs-Elysees!  It’s fun to window shop, where a person can get everything from an excellent meal to some new clothes to new electronics to a new convertible – LOL!  So Party down on the Champs-Elysees!

Now they are going in front of the Louvre and the Ferris Wheel!!!! Wheeees!!!  Ooops!  Someone had a flat tire!

Cool Place de la Concord building and the Obelisk, a gift from Egypt!  Cool!

Anyone could win at this point.  Oh noes, someone else had a mechanical issue too!

Hello, golden Joan of Arc, watching the Tour as it emerges from a tunnel.  Just three laps to go and it’s still anyone’s race today!

Three riders are in the lead at the moment, with just a couple miles left.  Which one will be able to pull it off?

 The bell for the final lap is ringing as the riders really start cranking it up!  Go everyone go!

Ooops, someone crashed right in the last lap!  A few people went down!  Looks like everyone is OK!

The peloton has caught the three leaders and it’s anyone’s race!  Wiggo has taken the lead in the last mile!  Edvald Boessen Hagen took the lead for a bit, then Mark Cavandish started sprinting for all he’s worth and was able to hang on to the lead through the finish, for his fourth victory on the Champs-Elysees!  Great job!!!!

 

Nibali Vincenzo is Today’s Bulge of the Day winner since he appears to have a large circle around his protruding vagina cup!   LOL!

As much as I love jolly ole England, looking like one is wearing an oversized flag really isn’t that great of a look. It would have been better if her flag/skirt was better fitting.

Thank you for the warm memories of blogging about the 2012 Tour de Underpants here in the Drunken Gaming Corner!  It’s been a totally epic journey through France, including visits to Belgium and Switzerland!  So Party on, Everyone Tram!!!!  Yays!!!!
