tidying up

so I changed a couple of the links on the sidebar, took off whedonesqe, ign, and inside pulse and added the two soccer links as well ask kotaku and joysitq. of course you probably already know this as you can see the changes.

I forgot my password....

So I forgot my password for the longest time. Yeah, that's pretty much the entire story. Have not posted in over a year, probably longer. Yet, I continue to come back..... Anyway, not making any assurances about any posting regularity, i will post when I feel like it, and I have something to post about....besides gives me something new to look at on the homepage.

Silence in the air....

so, toefur's rants, dead. irob0t, hasn't been updated in whatever the time equivelant of yonder is....., confessions of a stupid mind, well, we all know my track record on consistancy. butler county is the real watershed on people actually continuing shit they start. anywho, playing WoW the other day, i get my first taste of non battleground pvp.....needless to say, i got my ass kicked. i really don't like it when lvl 60's feel the need to gang up 3v1 on a lvl 29, and then to camp their corpse. I mean seriously, we're not even on a fucking pvp server, go find some other guy to harrass. classes start again monday...damnit.

Oh hell no.

Retro Repost: What I’ve Learned About Politics And War From Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri:

well here's the deal, this is a post i love from way back in the summer of 04, and well i can't think of anything else to post today because i'm working on this damn 6 page paper that's due tomorrow(that i have 1/2 a page done) over 12 angry men, so here it is, how video games can truly reflect reality:

- Peace Is Best Kept Through Superior Firepower.
- Religious Fundies won’t stop until you beat them into the ground with their own book of scripture.
- Don’t give technology to anybody but your closest allies, and don’t even give THEM your best stuff. (You need fusion reactors? Ooooo. Sorry. Ran outta those last week.)
- Environmentalists will be the first to initiate a scorched earth campaign if you piss them off. (Boreholes?! The Greenies have BOREHOLES?!)
- Try to limit the number of factions you’re at war with at any one time to less than half the game’s total.
- Don’t sweat it if this isn’t possible. Half of them will be fighting with whipped cream pies anyway (see also: Morgan Industries)
- Militia members usually don’t have the first idea of how to actually fight.
- There’s no better feeling than to have communists surrender to you.
- Do NOT f*ck with the University unless you have overwhelming force in position to annihilate them, or you have plenty of probe teams.
- Repairing is cheaper than replacing.
- Punishment Spheres have real S&M appeal.
- Once you’ve saved their asses, just expect your “allies” to try and take you out.
- When given the choice between money and technology, take the tech.
- Try to barter all extortion tried against you down to half before just giving up and declaring war.
- Planet Busters are a pain to make, a pain to use, and will get all of your Pacts revoked for you, so only use them if you have no other choice or you really really want to.
- Diplomatic victory is for pussies.
- Having superior military tech means less money spent on building war materiel in the long run.
- Endear yourself to the natives as much as reasonable. That way, they’re more likely to pester your enemies than you.
- If you have to wage war on multiple fronts, skirmish on all but your easiest front. That way you can more quickly finish off your weakest enemies, while still being an economic drain on your other ones.
