I said id stay away but i have to come and get a few things off my chest. … I reluctantly leave this once proud community we have here, i am leaving before this fragile house of cards collapse onto itself under the weight of its piracy. … And id rather not stay and watch the baby this community have carried over its 8 months of existence, to come out of its womb as an infected mutant halfbred child.

Lt. George: How … how do you mean, sir? Do you mean … do you mean take her home at the weekend to meet your mother?

Lord Flasheart: No, I mean get inside her five times a day and take her to heaven and back.

Capt. Blackadder: I’m beginning to see why the suffragette movement want the vote.

Change

One of the benefits of documenting one’s thoughts in a blog is that one can review said thoughts and realise one is a bit of a daft git.

I had previously mentioned my resistance to change but upon reviewing the entry, I realised my reluctance to change standard operating procedure in the specific instance I cited was wholly indefensible not to mention just plain ridiculous. After all, I did recognise that changing the default action would be a change for the better so why not change it?

Anyway, short story shorter, I not only changed the damned default action for photo transfers but I streamlined the process even further by configuring Nikon Transfer so that it automatically deletes photos from the digicam after copying them over to the PC.

One silly habit down.

One million to go.

200+K!

Lumines: 200+K
I managed to break the 200K barrier several times in Lumines over the weekend. It was easier than I thought. After several fast and furious levels/skins, the game slows down dramatically for the “Holiday in Summer” skin and gameplay continues at a relatively sedate pace for a few skins after that. It’s best to use this period to clear up the board and put together some megacombos to boost the score because the pace picks up again soon enough.
