Besides waiting for DnL (see below) I was playing Star Craft and War Craft III on battle.net with hadoken and Akhwah anbd some others. Mordeo was so kind to offer some space on his teamspeak server so if you want to join up drop me a note and I’ll hand out you the login info.
All games are usually just called auguststrasse and the default channel within battle.net for both games is the same, though we tend to communicate more via TS or ICQ.
So just for the records:
StarCraft (europe server) Akhwah vs. me: 4 – 0 (I managed once to kill one unit, yay!) hadoken vs. me: 0 – 2
WarCraft III (Northrend/ europe server)hadoken vs. me: 2 – 7 tara vs. me: 0 – 1
Ailoovi vs hadoken vs me: 0 – 0 – 1
I’m waiting for more people to join in, because it’s only fun to play with people you know. You got to taunt your enemies via TS or ingame chat and that’s only fun with people you know .
PodCasts and GEMA (Die Gesellschaft für musikalische Aufführungs- und mechanische Vervielfältigungsrechte)- if I could, I would discuss this with you in english, but this only affects those in germany and my english is not that good.
For the germans, just read it, it’s close to unbelieveable, also tante wrote something regarding it at the gay bar (that’s where I picked up this piece of information).
Thursday was easy. Nothing to do, at least till the afternoon. There’s been a “Frühlingsfest” in the City of KLF, “BIG” setup with serveral carnival fun rides. Well depends on how you define “big”.
Anyway the local school (a “Gymnasium”) seems to have a skater park and with that a local skate contest and afterwards some bands playing. I’ve not been to the skate contest, because it was slightly raining and it didn’t interested me anyway but I visit the bands playing afterwards. Loud, mainly, funny and good never the less but it’s kinda tiresome to listen to. Mostly more leaning toward the heavy and hardcore stuff with the first “group” being some freestylers. They where a little bit out of place it seems.
It all started at 4pm, I quit at 8 missing the last two bands. Feets and ears where hurting enough, though interesting was that it looked like one third of the school can skate, girls and boys.
Today my army of Coccinellidaes arrived, thanks to Kornel. Fine sealed after a two day trip, there where luckily no casualities during transport. The airborn troops have already spread out, but the groundsupport should take up their task pretty soon.
I didn’t get my S3 Vision 968 PCI graphic card working in my new compter. Somehow the MB BIOS doesn’t like it when set to boot PCI graphic card first and freezes and when I’m booting with PCIe graphic card first, the S3 doesn’t get any rescources. So no three screen options. I’ll have to try it with my 2nd DVI out but currently somehow my TV is overriding access to it … or the DVI to SUB-D converter is not good. Bah.
I’m going to try out the Dark and Light stress test. It’s not that I have that much to do at the computer right now anyway.
