"Oh, and by the way, I don't get my skills from a pocketwatch."

Short update today.

I recieved my first ever care package in the 3 years I've been at college. Horrible parents? No, I actually told them I didn't want care packages sent. Reason being that 90% of a care package is non-healthy food, which, if it is within my immediate area and I'm bored, will be consumed at an alarming rate. In fact, I don't even keep snacks in my dorm room.

Now, the real update, tech stuff.

You'll take note that at the bottom of my blog rests my latest HTML accomplishment. This is a forum sig from tehsig which contains nearly up-to-date information on my Battlefield 2 status. Integrating a forum sig into blog HTML was interesting to say the least. Also, thanks to the customization built into the coding of the sig, it does this neat thing where the background image is random based off a series I created for it. Fun stuff.


Secondly, and possibly last if I don't think of anything else before I'm done typing this paragraph, is the Greatest Keyboard EVER. It uses, or will use, OLEDs to change the image which appears on every key. Why is this useful? Because it can be set up so that when you open a program the keys will display the special functions attached to them by the program. This is most useful for gaming, also for keyboard shortcut intensive programs like Photoshop or 3DS Max. I've already got some ideas floating around of what I'm gonna do with this baby when i get one, hehehe. Now all they have to do is actually produce the damn thing.

Lastly (yeah I thought of something) the problems which have been plaguing BF2 as of late turned out to be the Punkbuster update. Apparently the auto update process was not working correctly. This hasn't solved some of my issues though, so they remain classified as either video card or 1.03 patch problems. My guess on the reason the PB update was causing trouble was because of the hordes of goddamn fucking cheating ass bitches it had to vanquish.

5 shots, 5 kills. It takes skill, not an aimbot.

I don't especially expect anyone to get todays quote, its not from a movie. Not that anyone guessed on any of the previous ones anyway.
