[F@H Spam Chat 8-03-2009] I'm Hungry!!! (Seriously), Let The Spammage Commence!!!

[ShyguyXPC]

Seriously, woke up VERY Hungry this morning, I say This morning because it was still 11:30AM LOL...

just made a bowl of Oatmeal (Quaker Instant, Brown Sugar variety).


Oh well, here's the stats, used the last posted version of Creatures app, not sure if its been updated, but this should do fine for now. I think...?

Looks like I got back into the stats, but so far a bit disappointed its so low, despite having a 7 to 8 grand a day estimates for PPD production. looked back at the prior days stats and seems I made 7+K... not sure if thats all mine, or if one of you added some points or what...

have had the 285 running non stop, for the last 48+ hours now though (since 1 or 2AM Saturday... or was it Friday? I forget), no errors, no shut downs, GPU temps been steady at 80-82C tops with fan speed on auto.


so far the day today is sunny, cool, hope it stays that way to go outside and either play with my new RC car in back yard or head over to the nephews and try it out.

I ate a couple Ham Steaks when i got up today, About ready to go eat another.

[nemowolf]

Im on a diet, think slimfast but better. I drink a shake, take some supplements and a shot of a B Complex. Oddly enough, my stomach has been shrinking enough that i get full from that. Normally im big on gorging myself with as much as i can eat in as little time as i can get it in.

Finished week 1 and took my measurements this mornings; I lost 8.25 inches accross my body and 4 lbs. I seriously didnt notice the 4 pounds but im really shocked at the 8 inches. I am going to try to keep up the diet and not cheat so much during the second week to see if i can reproduce the same results or better. At this rate, i will have lost my target of 20 pounds in 5 weeks and probably two pant sizes.

[KarmaKiller]

Home. I think I lost about 10lbs in just sweat today.
16 more post set in concrete, only....ermm.... lots more to go.

2,200 lighting stikes recorded in Bend last night, little less the night before. Another T-storm slated for tonight. 180 fires and I don't know how many dead computers in town, but I lost my Sony laptop to the first one last night.

Temps have been in the high 90's for the last week . . . electric bill is going to be outragous.

Doc ordered me some Vicodin for the pain today . . . hoping that will help with walking and sleeping. I've been using a cane for a couple weeks now, and it helps. Will be shutting everything down for the storm in a couple hours . . . don't need to lose any more crunchers.


Harder

[ShyguyXPC]

only take 2 years or so, but just installed Oblivion, and ran it at 1920x1080, full screen, enabled HDR in game, Forced AA set to 4x via drivers... cranked EVERYTHING to max, and it just fly's


not a single hiccup in the sewers, flawless transition from there to the outside world, move, run, jump, whatever, in outdoors with no hiccups, etc...

but finally a system that can fully max this game out in every detail (including HDR+AA) at 1080 resolution too.

GPU was in the mid 70's for 99% of the time, then towards the end it hit low 80's... but then the game had one of its usual random crashes Oblivion is prone to and known for.

oh well, load up from last save, and run again...

later though...

off to bed, then wake up later and install a couple other games, including Crysis (though I'll probably play that and then lose interest in it again).

Two Worlds, X3: Terran Conflict, Supreme Commander, Sins Of A Solar Empire, just to name a few.

Are you located in Bend? Friend of mine just went to a friend of his's grand opening for a new bar out in Bend. Supposed to be sweet as hell from what my friend told me.

Crysis was awesome....

Two worlds is rubbish.....
Never played X3 although number 2 was good.....
Supreme commander is a good game......
Never played SOASE.

[KarmaKiller]

Crysis was boring...

[Nude_Lewd_Man]

Nah, updating a two-year-old CV is boring.....

What bar???

I live and work in Bend.

Spada is a bouncer at one of the bars here as well.

Well, while it is somewhat of a shock to have dropped from around 60k PPD down to 6k PPD, it is at least a completely honest 6k PPD...

Still shocked by the graphical drop of points though... At least I'm one of the TIMO millionaires now though...

They sacked you?

Did you play the original version of Two Worlds? the glitchy buggy version, or the updated fixed version? (the latter is the one I have, actually got addicted to it for a while.)

me and a co-worker were die hard Oblivion players, and tried out Two Worlds on the PC, and got addicted to it, but I took a break from it for a few days and never got around back to it, same happens when I play Oblivion usually, or any game that I play for a while and get wrapped up in.

X3 Terran Conflict is technically #4, but its supposed to be an "extension" of the 3rd game (X3 Reunion).

Looked through the list of games on newegg, looks like I might be buying a few next week.

also majorly disappointed with quite a few titles pushed even FURTHER back on release dates.



but looks like Two Worlds Sequel, Temptations, is still on schedule for next month...

still waiting for Red Faction Guerilla, and looks like Novalogic is milking the Delta Force/Joint Operations Franchise yet again, Delta Force Xtreme 2 has been out for a bit, but they're releasing yet another Joint Operations Complete bundle again in a month or so...

Combined Arms is the last one, and they haven't come out with any new addons for JO, so why?

they've pushed Angel Falls off till beginning of Next year, yet again (was to be released LAST year sometime, pushed off till later in year, then late winter/early spring 2009, then early this summer, then later in the fall, now its later in the beginning of 2010 , just keep jerking around the remaining few (few hundred, that used to number in the THOUSANDS) Dedicated JO Novaworld/Novalogic players that are still around, and they're going to lose their clientele/fan base.


didn't realize how bad it was this summer with the lack of games for PC, seems worse than prior summers.

Red faction seams like its one of those fun for 5 minute games.... Which then gets old and repetative.

Ewwww Delta farce.......

There are a few games I have an eye on.

Mass effect 2
Assasins creed 2 (yeah I know )
COD: MW 2
Wolfenstein
