Church Fail

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 12:16:12 GMT

Read this.

Isn't that lulzy? The church finally seems to have decided that they can't do good things if gays can get married.

Also, in other news, procreating like rabbits is good for society (because we all know Darwin was wrong about species overproducing and succumbing to famine).

Everyone Vs. Goditz

I got nayed off the front page, so click this.

I'm waging war against Goditz

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 15:47:32 GMT

After browsing through the least popular posts on BYOND for lulz, I decided that someone needs to defeat Goditz, who has a longstanding record for the least popular post on BYOND.

With that said, I beg of you, nay me. This is truly a valiant effort, and hopefully one that will end successfully. Before you consider yeaing this post, however, just think: do you want Goditz to ever win at anything? Right now, he's winning at failing, and even that's not right.

EDIT: Roughly 1/3 of the way there, keep naying!

EDIT: We've done it!

Ambrosia

Fri, 25 Sep 2009 18:53:00 GMT

For my GIAD 2009 entry, I made Ambrosia. I wrote this up about a week ago, on last Sunday, with the themes "Ambrosia" and "Fluid". Because I wanted to make a game involving pixel movement and vectors, I decided ambrosia was the way to go, as I could play with various aspects of physics (EDIT: that didn't involve fluid). Sadly, I was only able to get in 4-5 hours of programming, so I could only get gravity in (I was originally hoping to toy with magnetic fields, pushing the ambrosia via bumping into it, repelling it via the opposite of the force of gravity, etc.) In the version I submitted, there was a minor collision bug I decided against fixing (it took only about 3 minutes to fix, but I wanted to get in all the sleep I could), and the hub password was different (so scores can't be haxed).

Either way, enjoy, maybe I'll be able to add an update in the future that gets rid of the flicking icon bug and adds the god powers/power ups I planned.

A silly project

Fri, 11 Sep 2009 15:29:04 GMT

Well, after about 9 months of analyzing the iPhone/iTouch App Store, I feel I have a great market analysis written up.

Here it is: most iTouch/iPhone users have minor cases of mental retardation.

As such, I decided that the first app I would develop with it would be both simple and stupid.

You've seen iMirror*. You've bought iWobble Pro**. You've spent hours of your life on iGlowStick***. Now, you have iRipple.

In other words, I developed an app in which you select an image on your iTouch/iPhone (will add camera functionality in the future), touch the image, and it ripples. In essence, I did this through Cocos2D, a great iPhone dev game library, and the iPhone SDK's built in UIKit and Foundation libraries. I'm still working on it a bit (the two tiny graphics I'm using are placeholder graphics, lol), and there's a small issue between Cocos2D and the 3GS that needs fixing, but other than that, it's almost done. The actual work itself only took about 5 hours at the most, and then a few more hours were spent on stupid mistake fixing (forgetting to include header files, etc.). However, the whole thing was a pretty big learning experience. In the last month, I've learned the Objective-C language's syntax, and a few of it's quirks. I've also learned how to use it's memory management related methods (the ability to use them properly is what I lack), and use some basic Cocos2D functions.

Expect a release within a few months at the most, I'm almost done now, and then I'll need to buy a Developer Membership or whatever it's called so I can test the project on my iTouch. Then, I just have to implement adMob, make a pro version (lol, iRipple pro = no ads), submit my app to Apple, wait upwards of one month at the most, ???, and profit!

*There was a mirror app out there. All it was was a blank screen with a frame.

**Some app that makes a certain part of your picture wobble. Pretty stupid, unless you use it to make fun of fat people.

***Got it for the lulz, was disappointed by how simple it was.

The End of Death Note Spoilers

Fri, 07 Aug 2009 11:15:09 GMT

I hated it. Light was smart enough to realize that all the people he used made stupid mistakes on their own, and as such, the cleanest (lol, not really) method to kill Near and everyone on the investigation teams would have been to cause Matsuda (who was obviously emotionally unstable) to start a fire fight. All he had to do was write out a detailed description of said fight in advanced, considering he knew the exact date and time of the meeting. Even if he had managed to kill the investigation through heart attacks like he planned, the police would probably infer he was Kira based on the fact that he was the only surviving member of both teams.

That's just my two cents, it was a great series other than that.

Gawtz Mai DS. (Don't use Jewbay.)

Thu, 06 Aug 2009 19:47:13 GMT

Well, after Jewbay screwed me out of 100 dollars a few days ago, i now have a limited edition pokemon D/P DS with 3 games and R4(Free DS Games/MP3 stuff).

Here's the story.

So, I went on ebay to look for a DS and had set a maximum bid of 55 dollars. The next day I look at the amount and it was around $75 with me at the leader. I looked at my maximum bid(which had doubled) and emailed ebay asking them to retract my bids, but since the auction was ending in less than 10 hours, I couldn't retract the bid and the seller wouldn't cancel the bid.

I ended up winning at 91 bucks...ugh.

[EDIT]
It's also happened to someone else i knew, who bought a lot of 25 used 360 games, set a max bid of like 30 bucks and they increased his max bid to like 350 dollars. :\

Rule of Thumb: Use Gamestop and not ~~Jew~~Ebay.

Lol

One week of membership, and I won't be able to get another until my birthday. Go download my stuff, I'm feeling too lazy to upload them all somewhere else (though I might upload one or two on request).

It was worth it, though, cause all my money just went into getting a Mac Mini.

EDIT: By the way, I just thought I'd tell you that The Hangover was an awesome movie, and that Bruno would have been better if it had no penis in it.

Over 9000 times the charm?

Srsly. I just upgraded my iTouch to 3.0, and now I'm trying to jailbreak it again. However, redsn0w is the buggiest non-beta program I have ever used! I've attempted to jailbreak it about 5 or 6 times so far, and even "bricked" my iPod once (I only had to force it into recovery mode to fix it, but still, annoying none the less). It's actually really funny though in a sense. It usually gets to uploading the ramdisk to my iPod, and then, after some progress, redsn0w crashes. Imagine my pain as I see it crash after almost finishing the jailbreak on my sixth try. Don't you think that deserves a nay?

EDIT: On the seventh time, it appears that it finally worked. Right now, it's finalizing the jailbreak by installing Cydia. inb4crash

You should have went to Ravenx465; he pays $200 per source!
