Slip – Part 1

OK, I know, I’m slipping, shut up. Anyway, multiple things to post about, since when they occured I promptly didn’t post about them. So I’ll post a few of entries on consecutive days to cover the various things I should have said but didn’t. Therefore, without further ado, I present … MENSA. Ado (dammit).

All Of Them Shiny, I Assure You

( Life )

I started writing this at 23:33, so I’m gonna say that this counts as a thursday post, which would be two days after my tuesday post, which is what I was aiming for. In any case, meh, it’s well within the three day limit. For those that don’t remember, I’m referring to when I said this, From now on, (until I start slipping again), updates will be no more than 3 days apart, preferably less. I’ll aim for 2.

The Great Rewiring

So I finally got pissed off at having 5.1 speakers and an awesome sound card, but only getting stereo sound. It’s quite retarded really that the S/PDIF output on my sound card only supports stereo sound, although it can quite happily output AC3 audio from DVD’s … which is surround sound. It’s something to do with Creative refusing to pay license fees for Dolby Digital audio and instead pushing their own EAX audio … or something.

Frets On Fire

( Games andPCs )

I was referred to a new game by Milkman on MSN, ’tis an … interesting game. Basically it’s a clone of Guitar Hero for the Playstation 2, and it’s somewhat addictive. As you may have already guessed, it’s called Frets On Fire. It doesn’t take a beast of a computer to run it, a graphics card might help but is not essential.

And On The Fifth And A Bit Day, David Drew

( Life )

Hmm, double post today, bet nobody saw this coming. This sort of ties in to the previous entry, but that one was long enough already, so here we are.
