"You can kill Uwe Boll in Postal 3" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-19 12:10:00

We're not sure why you'd want to hurt. Honestly he's a dear sweet man with a heart of gold. But apparently someone out there thinks that you've been hurt enough by his cinematic atrocities that you'd want to shoot his digi-version. The director will be placed into the upcoming according to developer Running With Scissors' president Vince Desi. Between you have plenty of reasons to want to off Boll. But is it enough to tempt you to play the third in a series of games that has scored averages between 55 and 62 percent? I think Postal 2 suffered from coming out in the period of tiem where developers thought that changing environments and weapons in a generic FPS would insure instant success. I didn't find Postal 2 to be that horrible of a game it was simply mediocre like just about every game that came out in that period that wasn't made by Vavle or Epic. But it wasnt really a game per say. More of comical cartoon violence just for the hell of it. So really who cares that it may as well have been and basically was little more than an unreal engine mod. You take Postal as a game it will dissapoint. You take postal as it was designed.. The chance to be uber violent just cos u can then what the hell. So while I agree that many games just bolted their own face on an aging fps engine at that time and the genre suffered for it. I dont believe you can really compare postal 2 to this. I honestly think Postal was a good concept though the original one was the first game that ever left me with that creepy. I feel dirty after beating it feeling. The second one was more slapstick true but I still was mildly entertained watching the guy's life turn to shit. $5 says someone makes a mod that makes every enemy in the game Uwe and then Uwe sues. This is all a clever plan for him to make millions to fund a new crappy video game movie. I'm not going to stand here and be a part of this good DAY sir. "You think the 'OTT' cheap trick to sell games has spun itself out a bit?""Yeah maybe.. got any new ideas?""Well everyone hates Uwe Boll. Stick him in the game - that'll sell another couple of copies to people obsessed enough with the talentless numpty that they want to see him suffer!""Ker-ching!" See he seized an opportunity where there was one. Namely make video game movies on the cheap. It's high time someone besides PTS dethroned this Summer's Eve poster boy and made a respectable video game movie before this twat destroys the genre.../rant. :) In before someone says Uwe will sue their pants off. Hooray for parody being legal. Oh and also. Postal is a terrible terrible game. Though peeing on people in it is terribly fun. Is he the one responsible for the House of the Dead movie? That was hands down and in all honesty the only movie I don't think I could ever sit through even if my life and the life of my loved ones depended on it. I made it maybe halfway through and went and found something more productive and fun to do like lighting my pubic hair on fire. Hasn't anyone mentioned that he is directing the Postal movie? Maybe he's making fun of himself. Like a fat comedian that turns his being fat into comedy instead of shame maybe Uwe is trying to turn his failure into some sort of endearing characteristic. If you throw in Thompson you better either be Rockstar or be ready to be shut down. While being able to kill him sounds great no doubt out could mod any game out right now to have his face in the game. Plus why would I want him dead. Once he's dead you can't make fun of him anymore. Then what are we going to do. Well guess what? Postal 3 will be made from the Source Engine that powers Half-Life 2. Team Fortress 2 and Portal. This only means one thing. You can use Garry's mod to do anything you want with Uwe Boll's ragdoll and that includes blowing him up and making movies of him. Well guess what? Postal 3 will be made from the Source Engine thatpowers Half-Life 2. Team Fortress 2 and Portal. This only means onething. You can use Garry's mod to do anything you want with UweBoll's ragdoll and that includes blowing him up and making movies ofhim. So you'd kill a guy you never met just cos' he made some bad movies. Fact is even if its a game the sentiments stem from reality and can be a dangerous thing to encourage. Too many unhinged fellows out there. Meh! Hate is fun after all. UWE BOLL TO MAKE NINJA ASSAULT. Uwe Boll could make the movie based on the 2002 Playstation 2 game Ninja Assault. The plot is set in feudal Japan 1620 and the evil Shogun Kagai was ambushed by a group of ninjas Guren,Gunjo and Aoi. Now Kagai is now resurrected from the dead and he wants to marry two very special women Siann daughter of the Amercian merchant Captain Jack Allen and Princess Koto. Now Guren,Gunjo and Aoi join forces with jack to hunt doan the spider demons,flying monkeys and battle against Shadow Khan,Tenshin,Ghan Mann and to stop Kagai at all cost. This can be good movie to make for Mr Boll. Thank You. BRUCE ACOSTAAUSTRALIA.

"Ultra quick start in Vim" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-16 00:43:17

Vim is a very powerful text editor. It is also quite an intimidating text editor to those that haven’t used it before and if you’re interested in just getting started with Vim and learning how to use it as a basic text editor it can be quite daunting. What I am going to attempt to give you today is an ultra quick start guide to editing files in Vim. Let me tell that - I’m going to go over the most basic concepts really quickly. There is plenty more that Vim can do and this is only really designed to whet your appetite for the editor. So let’s mouth. You can change state Vim by typing vim and then a filename at your dominate lie. That filename can be a file that already exists or a new register you want to create. Once you hit enter the dominate line goes away and you enter the Vim interface. Vim has a concept of different modes for editing which means in order to do some tasks you might need to be in a certain mode. The two modes we need to worry about here are Normal mode and Insert mode. By default you start in normal mode. In most modern versions of Vim you should be able to look for the document if it exists with the arrow keys (or use Ctrl-D to move drink more quickly). To insert or edit text we need to switch from Normal mode into Insert mode. You do that by pressing the letter i. You should see this come the furnish of the screen: Now you can use the keyboard as you would normally to type text into the document. Once you’re done making the alter and be to switch back to Normal mode press Esc. The attach message at the furnish should go away and anything you type ordain be interpreted as a dominate not as text to type into the enter. That is basically the bare minimum you need to know to get started editing in Vim or if you just want to use it quickly. However it would also be quite useful to experience how to save and quit the editor. While in Normal mode (remember - Esc ordain get you back to it at any time) typing these commands in and pressing Enter will do the following: :w - save the register (the ‘w’ stands for write).:q - quit the register. If you haven’t saved the file since you last changed it you will be warned and it will not quit. If you want to remove the changes…:q! - quit the file not saving your changes.:wq - save and quit the file in one fell come down! I’m going to say this yet again - this is only scratching the ascend of what Vim can do but if you want to get up and running and editing files in it this is the bare minimum of the knowledge you need!

"30 Interview Questions You Can't Ask (and 30 Sneaky But Legal ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-02 00:06:55

"In every job interview the goal is to obtain important information while building a friendly rapport with the candidate. But some questions are just a little too friendly. Protect yourself and your company from legal affect and embarrassment by avoiding the wrong questions yet still getting to the root of the concern behind the question." #31. Do you like pubes in your Coke or Pepsi? What you should ask: Do you like Coke or Pepsi? (and then cast aside the occasional pube in their soda whilst building your Supreme Court resume) Probably common comprehend but will certainly help me with the killer foot and mouth disease I have when interviewing candidates - "I would rather see a pregnant lady on the bus standing than a fat girl sitting down crying" If you are serious about hiring you ordain have a trained cater for recruitment other then that you are just bullshit trying to copulate over employees and heading to a law conform to. Tell you what just let the secretary do the Java code Some of those are good but several of the suggested alternatives are not "sneaky ways to get the same information". They'll yield you a yes/no say that is in no way relaying the information that you should not ask about. These questions are borderline retarded. "You can't ask how long they've lived here but you can ask where they live!" Who gives a shit? Most of the "replacement" questions are on a resume anywhere. Might as come up just put "You can't ask his name but you can ask what letters are involved in spelling his name!" "#1 What you can't ask: Are you a U. S citizen?"So there's an Illegal Immigration problem and many populate are finally realising that the heart of the problem are the populate who are hiring the Illegal Immigrants. But how are these employers supposed to ensure they do the right thing if they can't determine whether or not the person is a legal citizen? how to sneak in a comment about digg while reading an article about being sneaky:Why is it that at the bottom of the summon when there are 222 pages we undergo an option to decide 1 to 10 or 222;what's the big broach to just add an option to type a page be into the listand have it go immediately to that page?Or am I missing something;they could comfort control how long it takes if it eats to much server processing time but at least you wouldn't have to go through 10 pages manually to get to say items on page 100;or is there a way to do this and I just don't see it. Some of those questions can be asked. Maybe they shouldn't but.

"Makagiga: More tools than you can shake a stick at" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-09 13:59:24

While it's unclear what Maka stands for the "giga" move of most likely refers to the number of tools this application has on furnish. It comes with a to-do manager. RSS reader a basic photo viewer/editor a text editor miscellaneous widgets and much more. Makagiga is written in Java so it runs on any platform with Java Runtime Environment. Better yet you can transfer a portable version of Makagiga that runs equally well on Linux and Windows so it makes an ideal affiliate for use on the move. Integrating disparate tools into a hit application without making things confusing can be a challenge but Makagiga tackles it well. The application's interface is divided into two panes. The left pane contains four fail root folders: Files and Folders. Feeds. Find Files and Trash. You can believe the contents of each folder as a hierarchical tree by clicking on it. When you decide an item in a folder its contents are displayed in the right pane with a context-sensitive toolbar. decide for example an image and the toolbar automatically shows photo editing tools such as Crop. turn and Effects. Select a to-do item and the toolbar displays the remove Completed and Statistics tools. desire Firefox. Makagiga also opens each selected item in a displace tab. Three root folders are designed to direct specific types of circumscribe. Files and Folders for example is the default folder for storing images to-do lists text files notes and links. You are not limited to just one folder though. Makagiga allows you to act additional folders and subfolders to act tabs on your data. This way you can for example set up separate folders for pictures links and to-do lists. To alter it easier to find items stored in folders you can apply color labels to them. Right-click on an item select Properties and choose the alter you be. In a similar manner you can add multiple tags as well as star ratings. As you might have guessed the Feeds folder is used to manage RSS feeds. Makagiga comes with a few default feeds for your reading pleasure but you can easily add your own. Right-click on the Feeds folder decide New -> Add cater enter the feed's URL and press OK. desire any other items stored in Makagiga both RSS feeds (represented as folders) and individual article items can be colorized tagged and rated. The Feeds folder also contains a New articles item which lists all unread articles and offers a convenient way to believe all newly fetched items at once. Makagiga can back up you not only to hold on and organize your files but also to edit them. The application features a built-in photo editor which you can use to rotate and cut photos alter brightness and differentiate and apply effects. Makagiga's text editor offers a few handy features too. Notably it allows you to deliver multiple versions of a text file so you can always roll back to a previous edition. To access this feature right-click on the text register in the left pane select Properties and move on the Versions tab. The to-do enumerate editor has pretty much everything you be to efficiently manage your tasks. You can contract a deadline priority and status for each task. The Search drive can help you to quickly locate the tasks you be and it automatically narrows the search results as you write. Makagiga change surface includes a simple statistics feature that presents all your tasks as a pie map which gives you a graphical overview of your tasks. You don't even have to press the Statistics add to view it: hover the mouse over the button and the pie chart appears in a pop-up window. Makagiga includes a few other features that can back up you to better manage your cram. Pressing the Bookmark button at the furnish of the window adds an item to the Bookmark menu for faster find. You can also cerebrate items to each other. To do this open the source item for viewing press the Links add at the bottom of the window select Add Link and choose the target file. Add Sticky say is another nifty feature; it creates a sticky note out of the currently selected item. Choose for example. alter -> Add Sticky Note when viewing an RSS bind and Makagiga creates a new note containing the bind's title and description. Sticky notes be in the Widgets divide which also offers schedule and picture modules. You can transfer and install additional widgets as come up but the enumerate of currently available widgets is rather bunco. In a similar manner you can install plugins to extend Makagiga's functionality. To do this choose Tools -> Plugins then touch the lay Plugin add to view a list of what's available. Obviously if you are going to hold on multiple bits and pieces of data in Makagiga you'll want to be able to quickly find and show them. This is where Makagiga really shines. It allows you not only to quickly find cram but also to save searches as virtual folders. Simply press the plus icon in the Search handle at the bottom of the left pane enter the search criteria press the Save button furnish the new examine a name and touch OK. Using the examine tool you can search for a specific text inside the stored items or you can examine for items containing specific tags a rating keyword or icon; you can also examine for a certain file write. Finally. Makagiga can act good compassionate of your precious data. It sports a backup tool which can save the application's data in a zipped archive. Backing up the data is as easy as choosing Tools -> Backup and pressing the Next button. The only fly in the ointment here is the lack of a regenerate option which means you need to restore the backed up data manually. Makagiga might not appeal to users who prefer dedicated tools for specific tasks. However it has everything to conform to even the most demanding fans of the "everything-but-the-kitchen-sink" approach.

"Debugging a web application with IntelliJ IDEA, Maven and the ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-27 21:18:51

Hi,Today I was doing some development in the most recent build of IntelliJ IDEA (open ) and toying with it I have open a quick way to debug any web application which is built using Maven. It is a must in my developments to use the jetty maven plugin so I can just start the application using:mvn jetty:runAnd then alter my pages and stuff without having to restart or deploy to external web containers. To do that you just need to say the jetty plugin in your POM file:<plugin> <groupId>org mortbay jetty</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId> <version>6.1.2</version> <configuration> <connectors> <connector implementation="org mortbay jetty nio. SelectChannelConnector"> <port>8080</port> </connector> </connectors> <scanIntervalSeconds>10</scanIntervalSeconds> </configuration> </plugin>change state you project with IntelliJ IDEA (it is nice that now you can just change state a maven POM as a project!) and then you can use this plugin to go away the web application and go away debugging right away. To do so: act a new Run/correct configuration (click on the displace down list on the left of the green arrow icon) and "alter configurations".

"Good Gravy - You Can Do It" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-17 17:04:56

When roasting a turkey or chicken strew chopped vegetables (carrots celery onion an apple) in the bottom of the pan. As the turkey roasts and you baste the vegetables will caramelize developing a rich locate (“fond”) of flavor for your gravy. When the bird is done tent it with contrast on the cutting board or serving platter and turn your attention to the gravy. Sauce & Gravy dredge (Wondra is one mark) is one secret to consistently good gravy. It's simply finely milled flour. A couple of technique tips. If you've used a douse or a seasoned salt or a salted increase butter be careful not to add too much salt. Depending on the quantity of pan drippings you may need to add cover or oil to the pan. Place your roasting pan right on the stove top. Scrape up the bits of vegetables that have cooked down add wine to de-glaze the pan and channel the fond. Madeira is a fortified booze that imparts fantastic flavor to a turkey gravy. Once you've tried this to de-glaze your roasting pan and taste the end prove you ordain be a convert. Some cooks use wine some use Port. Whatever you do do not use those “cooking wines” they are inferior and salty and do not belong in your gravy. Or in your kitchen for that matter. Add some dredge (about a one-to-one ratio) to make a roux. (You may make a beurre manie ahead of time this is kneaded butter and flour which you can add in bits to thicken your act or gravy.) This will thicken as you whisk in hot broth. If you're worried about lumps you can whisk the flour into a measuring cup of hot broth first then displace it into the pan. Add other ingredients as you like: fresh herbs giblets cider wine milk. A coloring agent such as Kitchen Bouquet can be added for color. It is essentially a caramelized vegetable reduction. A demi-glace may be added instead this will tell flavor sheen and flavor but not too much color. If you undergo potato and gravy fans you may be to verify adequate gravy base (and this can be done ahead) by roasting some turkey wings in the pan along with some vegetables the day before. Chopping the wings in pieces with a cleaver or poultry shears ordain ensure that the natural thickening agents will be released and full flavor ordain develop. Careful with salt. As indicated many steps or choices made in the recipe selection and execution can add flavor so that cumulatively it can easily end up much too salty. White pepper adds the alter say to turkey gravy. If you use packaged broth try cooking the neck giblets. (but not the liver) in low-sodium low-fat chicken broth along with some herbs. Bay leaf allspice berry - both are nice additions. If you'd desire you may strain through a choose. Try heating your gravy roll or boat with some hot wet to keep the gravy from chilling on its way to the table. Do ahead notes: chop the veg for the pan make beurre manie end what bowl you'll use to answer the gravy and find a lay or spoon that won't slide into it.

"iPhone $100 credit can be used for iTunes gift cards" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-09 19:01:15

Chris Tutor from our sister blog emailed us a cerebrate to this about the (you have yours right?). The first thing many populate wanted to experience about the credit was. 'Can I buy stuff from the iTunes store with it?' A quick be at the would make you evaluate this is not possible but Bloomberg spoke with an Apple rep who clarified the whole thing. Here's the lowdown: you can't bear on the $100 ascribe directly to your iTunes account but you can swagger into any Apple Store or log onto the online hold on and buy yourself a $100 (or less) iTunes Gift separate. The only that remains is what are you going to pay all that steal at iTunes?modify: Several populate in the comments and on other blogs wrote me to let me experience that this affix is just plain wrong. It is not incorrect the iPhone credit can be used for iTunes Gifts Cards NOT iTunes electronic enable certificates. I just purchased a $25 enable separate from the online Apple store using my ascribe. 1 that's not my experience i tried yesterday and today and the "Apple Store Credit or Apple Gift Card" divide of the select a payment method in the online store is greyed out. The communicate is "Because your order includes an Apple enable Card or an iTunes Music Store Gift Certificate you cannot pay using an Apple Gift Card."Has anyone else figured this out? 3. Noah-You are correct the article is wrong. You can not use the credit with Apple's online hold on or through telecommunicate irders for an iTunes separate. You can ONLY complete this at an Apple retail hold on. 4. come up. I ordain say buying music on the iPhone with the iTMs wireless is gonna be addicting.. so using the 100$ credit on iTMs is a good idea if you buy your music from itunes. 5. Umm guys the situation can be worse than we thought. be at this chat I had with an Apple rep just a few seconds ago.#Hi my name is Khalilah P. Welcome to Apple!#Khalilah P: How may I back up you today?#You: Hi. I got the iPhone rebate ascribe and I am wondering what the easiest way is for me to be able to use it on itunes#Khalilah P: I'm happy to assist with that.#Khalilah P: furnish me a moment to do some investigate. I am not sure that the ascribe is available to be used on iTunes.#You: sure no problem#Khalilah P: Thanks for your patience.#Khalilah P: Unfortunately you are not able to use that ascribe at an iTunes store.#Khalilah P: You may redeem their store credits only for qualified purchases directly from Apple at an Apple Retail hold on the Apple Online Store or Apple Telesales (1-800-MY-APPLE) in the United States.#You: Okay so I would be able to purchase an iTunes enable card to essentially transfer the ascribe?#Khalilah P: You can acquire just about anything sold by Apple except another Apple Store Gift separate or an iTunes electronic Gift Certificate.#Khalilah P: May I back up with any other product or order questions before you speak?#You: So I would need to either acquire the gift card at an Apple hold on or undergo it shipped from the online store if I understand correctly.#Khalilah P: No you are not able to purchase any gift cards with your iPhone credit.#You: Oh authorise convey you.#Khalilah P: You're accept.#Khalilah P: May I back up with any other product or request questions before you proceed?#You: No thank you that is all.#Khalilah P: Thank you for visiting the Apple hold on. We acknowledge your business. 6. Yeah? You evaluate that's bad?I wasted my ENTIRE day yesterday trying to redeem that damn thing. I took mine into my "local" Apple hold on (We be an hour away) and they told me my fit was $0! Then I spent a few more hours on the phone only to be told I had to displace an telecommunicate. How's that for "It just works." 7. Customers may reestablish their hold on credits only for qualified purchases directly from Apple at an Apple sell hold on the Apple Online hold on or Apple Telesales (1-800-MY-APPLE) in the United States. Customers may not reestablish their hold on credits: (1) at any iTunes hold on in the United States or elsewhere. (2) Apple Store locations outside the United States; (3) at Apple resellers; (4) for cash; (5) to acquire Apple enable Cards or,iTunes hold on enable Certificates to furnish iTunes hold on content as gifts or to create iTunes Store allowances; or (6) as payments on Apple accounts. 8. You can buy enable CARDS but not gift CERTIFICATES with it. I had already purchased some things with my ascribe but I just got a $25 gift card with the remaining be. query if Apple sells anything for 20 cents? 9. Despite what Bloomberg or anyone else reports the Apple $100 ascribe summon (as linked in TUAWs earlier posts) is crystal alter in stating that the credit cannot be used "to purchase Apple enable Cards or,iTunes hold on Gift Certificates to give iTunes hold on content as gifts or to create iTunes Store allowances". Why go along what is obviously contradictory information here - unless the blogger has actually confirmed the information with Apple. Did the TUAW crew hit the books nothing from yesterday's "you must undergo an iTunes account to use an iPod touch" debacle. 11. Wow!.... I redeemed my award yesterday and was told I could not get an iTunes separate.... and today that option is change state to me. You would have thought I would undergo learned the lesson of being an early adopter. You would undergo thought I would undergo learned that apple will dress the rules of the bet. compel on me. Twice. 12. "You would undergo thought I would have learned the lesson of being an early adopter... Shame on me. Twice."Yeah. I did the exact same thing here :( 13. Wow this is confusing. The book create from Apple's summon says. "(1) at any iTunes Store in the United States or elsewhere. (2) Apple hold on locations outside the United States; (3) at Apple resellers; (4) for change; (5) to purchase Apple Gift Cards or,iTunes hold on Gift Certificates to furnish iTunes hold on content as gifts or to act iTunes hold on allowances;"be 1 is that it can't be used at the iTunes store. Ok that's odd but book (they don't make any money on song sales right?). be 4 is for cash and a gift card or gift award is treated as cash in many states -- can't expire can be redeemable sometimes for change. be 5 no Apple Gift Cards and no iTunes enable Certificates. Is an iTunes enable Card not also an Apple enable Card by definition?I anticipate I'll just have to go try and request one. Blah! 16. I can't accept Apple is doing this. I like those guys and they usually do everything right... I harbor no anger towards them for lowering the determine that's just how things work but then to furnish the $100 broach and be such big assholes over it... I'm afraid AT&T is having some affect! They have to get out of this partnership fast!! 17. Folks. I was able to do this for a web request of 2 "iTunes Gift Cards" for $50 each (no separate exists for 100) the email award option did not work (enable card was grayed out on the payment check) but ordering the physical gift separate seems to have this may be a temporary glitch on apple's side or some other oddity but if you follow the directions above quite literally and precisely it may bring home the bacon for you. I think post 13 above has laid out the various categories of cards certificates etc clearly. But i anticipate the answer to that final challenge is that "iTunes enable Card [ARE] not also an Apple enable Card by definition" :-) at least at the moment. Good luck 18 i went into an Apple sell hold on and bought a $100 iTunes gift separate with my credit. No tax was charged easy as pie. 19 thanks for the advice! dude i was frustrated trying to buy a certificate but switched over to card and worked book if you're.
