Wow, that one previous post got more responses than I think my Tumblr has gotten the entire time it's existed. :P That's my one complaint about Tumblr: it would be so much nicer if it had a more functional comment system attached, or indeed any kind of system at all. That reblog stuff just ain't cutting it ( Read more... )

You know, that sort of grabbiness was more adorable when Caprice was doing it.

In other news: Finally beat "More than Machine" in SpaceChem, which was brutal -- it took me days. The next sector looks completely insane.

We're such teases.

I have now bought Seasons 3 and 4 of Stargate: SG-1 off eBay. #4 I sniped at the last possible minute -- it was totally by accident, I swear. But now I'm impatiently waiting for them to arrive because I WANT IT NOWWWWWW.

In other news, by which I mean I'm still playing SpaceChem: I've finally figured out how to avoid the ( Read more... )

One of the neat things that SpaceChem does is track your efficiency -- how many instructions you used to solve a puzzle and how many cycles it took to complete -- and then show you a bar graph that compares it against how many symbols and cycles other players took, letting you know the average time taken as well as the outliers in both directions.

It's a Christmas miracle!

Hmm, was there anything I actually wanted to mention here? Well, as I said, fight scenes are really fun to draw. I'd never realized that before.

The usual place.

While doing today's experiment, I was watching the movie Blown Away on cable. It's not a bad flick, but what struck me the most is just how incredibly good it looks. In that way, I've kinda realized, it fits in with a whole bunch of early '90s thrillers -- movies like this one, Sneakers, Speed, The Hunt for Red October, and others ( Read more... )

It is this thing over here.

Actually, the reason it was late is less mindworms or perfectionism and more, er, me spending too much time playing The Saboteur on my 360. Frankly, this is a rather underrated game. An open world game set in Nazi-occupied Paris, The Saboteur is rough around the edges in a few places, but honestly I was instantly ( Read more... )

So spelunking in Minecraft is kind of broken right now, as the game's creator added a hostile creature with a broken hitbox that spawns in vast numbers in secure areas underground, thus making cave exploration completely impossible. Rather than get cranky I decided to try doing something else instead. Making something. Want to see what I made?
