I plan on going the rest of my life without killing, fighting, kidnapping, raping, or generally violating any other human. I don't plan on going the rest of the next 12 hrs without seeing a naked pair of human female breasts in real life.
that most people who make video games are technicians rather than artists. I think that the few people who overlap creativity in the story telling or avaunt guard space, rarely overlap with coders or the middle management corporate structure that herds them. So you get Doom->Quake->Wolfenstien->Doom->Quake games that are just excuses to kill shit with rocket launchers as a development platform.
There are games that tell stories, Halo, Half-life, Morrowind, & et al. and they're blockbusters. He's what we need to do, hire writers, pay them starvation wages and provide them with shitloads of high quality hallucinogens.
Or go educational, Immune Attack is really impressive and just needs a little bit of play polishing and graphics massage to be awesome.
Or just remake really good games, Ultima Underworld, Marathon, Starcontrol, and on and on on new engines to bring real games to the starving masses.
Enjoy it again! There is a stopped attempt on sourceforge to make a new engine for it with the same files. It looks fantastic but I can't pick anything up. But seriously after a 1/2 hour I don't notice the graphics at all. That game kicks ass on anything I have played in years. It is in fact the best FPS ever in my opinion. Learning Lizardman is fucking hard. Some puzzles even though simple I still fuck up.
When I finally won Morrowind I was naked except for the hammer and the glove. It was kind of a feint to my "demented vacuum cleaner" beginnings. I still think about opening up that game and killing every non-dark elf NPC in the game to fulfill the prophecy in my own way. I could easily do it too. God that was a fucking great game. I wish they would make it massively online.
According to SciAM economics is not a science because it was incoherently built on generalizing physics equations (since invalidated) to a magical concept called "utility" resulting is a system that has no real predictive capacity and is constantly update only after the model proves to be worthless.
I had a hell of a debate with the people in my yoga class about MP3s. Because they violate asteya (non-stealing) and Aparigraha (non-hoarding) and they just would consider the idea, free MP3s beat out philiospy, practive and truth in their minds.
The reason you are not supposed to hoard is because someone else might have a current use that outweighs your possible future use for the item. I have often thought that making NPC need items in games would make hoarding harder ethically to pursue. I also think that monster ecologies would be cool. Kill all the fur seal in freezly land when power leveling and fuck... they went extinct. Kill all the predators and shit we are overrun with disease carrying rats!
Let me tell you about houses full of crap. Multiple sets of all the armors, weapons, and huge amounts of reagents all laid out on the floor in neat grids.
My pride and joy was stealing the full set of dramora armor off of the guy who helps you with corpus disease. I made a low DPS dagger with huge magical armor damage and broke the armor off his body. Then I knocked him out bare handed and robbed him and charmed him back to friendly. Each item was enchanted with a variable stat increase. All decked out I was totally unstoppable.
The best hoard was all the moon sugar in the game, which I ate all at once. When I ran and jumped it would load four or five games tiles before I hit the ground. It never wore off before I was bored of the game.
I am replaying Ultima Underworld right now on DOSBOX and am fighting my self not to hoard because items have no effect in that game really and trade is useless. P.S. Where is the bandit's hideout behind the store room? I cannot find it at all.
Quake was the first game to have multipayer support before the game even came out! It also had zombies rip flesh from their abdomen's a throw it at you. Ultima Underworld was the first game 3D game you could look up in It was the first game with reactive music. It had hard puzzles based on logic and note taking and language acquisition. It had fighting. It even had... OMG... demons! Marathon was insane and introduced physics, rocket jumping, friendly bots, and crazy AIs. Doom was just lots and lots of killing oh yeah and a chainsaw.
Oh my god an ancient sprite based game plays on a crippled piece of hardware! Seriously, not fucking news at all. Here's an actually cool game for a handset. It uses the camera and printed bar codes to created an augmented reality desktop tower defense game.
Once again... I am not dicounting the supernatural at all. I am only saying the Buddha was directly quoted in the sutras as saying he knew nothing about God/god or the afterlife.
The Koran has only one verse about women veiling and it refers only to the wives and daughters of the prophet. The Hadith only has one major secontion related to veiling the says that Mohammed PBUH said that Aisha should wrap her cloak around her naked breast to be shown as a person of the book. The Bedoins used these to enforce their property rights over women and create the horrific system of honor based on a woman's ird. Muslims constant conflict bedoin tradion and culture with Islam to the detriment of the world.
The current Suni jurispurdence comes from the Wahabbi sect and is extreme. Everyone one who had a different view was marinalized or destoyed. Where are the Sufis? They desired direct supernatural contact with G-d and were destoyed for it.
Men and women prayed next to each other in the Medina once Mohammed PBUH was dead Abu Baker attacked womens right and instituted all sorts of fucked up things like stoning adultures to death. He also removed something like 200 of the Hadiths put in my Fatima Mohammed's wife.
Sorry but Doom is not that cool. Quake is in fact much much cooler and goes to prove that Maddox is right about the iPhone vs. the Nokia E-series. Oh it legally unlocked, it multitaskes, and it will be OSS soon.
Actually my point was that for $200 dollars more you can have a machine that blows away any other graphics system per dollar and have a MB based on a next generation platform. It was not dick waving my any stretch of the imagination. Plus if you're that cheap get a Lenovo netbook on the Ion platform.
Oh contraire mon frere, according to two reviews some Tom's Hardware and this bad boy http://www.extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp it will just fit. 398 watts to be exact. Plus this PSU has a little room to spare.
I am not saying that the world and or Buddhism is not supernatural, I am just saying he specifically did not talk about it. To quote Wikipedia... "The sutra was written in stages, beginning from at least 500 years after the death of the Buddha." So you point has no bearing on what the man himself did or did not believe.
One of my Yoga teachers pointed out that after the rise of aesthetic yoga practices there was a blow back that took India to tantra. Or in short, the Indians can't not drape flowers on things.
People are not smart, they are not devoted, and they are not aesthetic without thousands of hours of practice and powerful social controls. Just because people have dumbed down, widened, or softened various religions doesn't change the kernel that created the system. Sometimes fundamentalism is great, sometimes it is Wahhabi.
I just listened to a Art Bell Coast to Coast with Graham Hancock http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzKp2PeXeWI where he argues that major religions are based on direct contact with the supernatural by the prophet but then the followers become rapidly divorced from that union through human power structures.
I live in the Gulf and I love to tell people that I think that the companions of the prophet and the apostles were for sure influenced by the devil to create the shitstorm that is modern region. I don't believe in the devil per se but I love getting people hackles up. I mean how could Islam go from men and women praying next to each other in Medina to the most misogynistic of behaviors in one caliphate. Same with the church, Peter was for sure Satan's bitch.
Anyone can become directly linked with god but most people are terrified of that for an infinite number of reasons; fear of insanity, loss of control, loos of ego centrism, cognitive dissonance, and a host of others. Basically most people are big blubbering vaginas who are terrified of everything except getting drunk and making an ass out of themselves.
The funny part about this is that Buddhism IS SECULAR. There is no debate here either. Buddha specifically said he knew nothing about god, the afterlife, or anything spiritual. All he figured out was why humans suffer on earth and how to eliminate suffering. Life is suffering, wanting things makes you suffer, to end suffering end desire, and don't be a dick. Where's god? Nowhere. Just because the Tibetans hybridized his teachings with tantric yoga or because Asians like to burn incense and build gold Buddhas has no impact on his teachings and philosophy.

Problem solved.
Read my post, I said they rarely overlap and when they do you get Half-life.
I plan on going the rest of my life without killing, fighting, kidnapping, raping, or generally violating any other human. I don't plan on going the rest of the next 12 hrs without seeing a naked pair of human female breasts in real life.
Get rid of the central control and move to a peer to peer handset modle.

It is also a no-no in yoga. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamas see Aparigraha (non-horading).
