Ahhh much better!

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Thu Jul 22, 2004 10:55 am

Indeed. I'm quite a bit happier, now that I'm off that wretched prime number. I feel like I can post in a much more leisurely manner. I don't have that yucky prime number burning through the back of my skull as I type. I'm not a big fan of the number 14, especially since it involves multiples of 7, but it'll do for now.

It's one step closer to 16. Wont you be happy then.

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Thu Jul 22, 2004 11:05 am

I'll be extra happy, because 2 8s go into 16, and 8 is the best. I'm also pretty cool with 4 and 2, and any other power of 2.

I'm glad that's over.

That was the worst page in the history of this thread. YUK!!!

HEE HEE HEE.... Now we need to think of something memorable for this thread to reinforce the fact that 13 sucked so bad. I am enjoying the discussion about the sucky page 13 though

Far Cry Patch Recalled

According to ShackNews the Far Cry 1.2 patch released a few days ago has been recalled. According to the publisher "Far Cry patch 1.2 has shown unexpected behaviour on specific hardware configurations. These matters are mainly due to incompatibilities with several optimisations brought lately to the code, with the intent to please a large number of users". CryTek is working on a fixed version of the update to be released "as soon as possible".

Yeah, I found that to be pretty funny. Ivan has my discs, so I can't reinstall now.

If it was recalled, does that mean everyone should upload the patch that they downloaded to CryTek?

McNevin · Post by **McNevin** » Mon Jul 26, 2004 4:29 pm

Thats pretty funny... I think i'll email the patch back to them, so they can fix it for me.

I'm all set to try out SM3.0, but NV hasn't released their driver that officially supports it. You have to do an INF hack, which I'm too lazy to do. Do they think I have time to add two lines to an INF file??

I need my Far Cry discs... Rixlor, go hang out with Ivan and get the discs!

HEE HEE HEE. I would like to hang out with Ivan, but I have no time to do anything presently.

Yeah you might want to see farcry on that new card. Especially with everything working correctly.

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Tue Jul 27, 2004 11:42 am

Now that I got everything working, I'm ANSI to get home and try it out. You should see UT2004 at 1280 all options maxed at 85Hz sync. It's possible that it will even run like that at 1600x1200, but I haven't tried yet. I got a few dropped frames, and some jitter at busy times before, but not now. I tried the most complicated levels I could find. I can't wait to try Far Cry. Supposedly they're going to enhance the graphics in it, and not just use SM3.0 for speed at some point, but I haven't read anything about that since the initial posts I saw.

Now that this thread is 14 pages long, I thought I might check into the status of the giant inflatable Papio bottle which some J3rk was going to steal for me.
Where is that thing?....

spidermonkey · Post by **spidermonkey** » Thu Jul 29, 2004 9:34 am

I'm also worried about this supercomputer situation. It's computing things that I don't like.... The PC poll thread is growing rapidly... Already half the size of this thread...
I have to go to work now and draw pretty flowers that take money from the elderly...

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Thu Jul 29, 2004 11:16 am

Yes! Rob them blind!!! AAAAAHAHAHAHAHHAA!!!!! Silly elderly. My slot arm is tired. [TEE HEE HEE]

Yes, that Papio bottle.

Well, it's still at Uwaji, but I don't think I'll be able to get it. I may have to walk by with a pin and let it deflate whilst I shop. I could do it the same way we got the other thing. I'll use a cart, and toss it on the bottom part. Then wheel it out.

This started slipping down the page again. Grunka Lunkas? Tell them I hate them!

That episode was on last night. Which reminds me... McNevin, someday I want your whole Futurama collection. I have turned to whatever the appropriate side is, and it, and Family Guy are among my favorite non-Williams Street cartoons now. I'm going to buy the DVD sets for Family Guy though, so I won't need those. I watch them both every night now. I don't know why I never liked them before. I probably just got the wrong introductory episodes or something. Anyway, I want all the FRs. Only change the "want" to "need" and you'd have a more accurate idea of what I really mean.

HEE HEE...

McNevin · Post by **McNevin** » Fri Jul 30, 2004 6:33 pm

Cant let this bastard slip away...

Thats funny, i had the tv on when i went to bed last night... Jen was getting ready top turn it off and just as the "Tell them I hate them part came on, i quoted that into my pillow, just about to fall asleep. Just barely catching my favorite line.

Unfortunatly I am missing the first 2 seasons, as they were lost in the great hard drive crash of 2001. I do have some excelent episodes though, which you should enjoy.

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Fri Jul 30, 2004 6:37 pm

Perhaps I should pop up a request for Season 1 and 2 on the ol' Usenet, and see what happens. Or I could run it up the flag-pole, and see who salutes it.

Post by **enderzero** » Sat Jul 31, 2004 10:12 pm

I have the entire series in good quality (except a couple eps from season 4 that I need to grab from Adm. McNevin). We can get those all swapped up when I get back.

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Sat Jul 31, 2004 11:42 pm

Nice!

spidermonkey · Post by **spidermonkey** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 11:21 pm

I also like receiving these cartoons, even though I may not watch them... I still have a couple of Chappelle episodes from season 1 which I often forget to watch...

Your avatar has gone and made me want a martini... Big fat jerk! Where am I going to get a martini at this hour, whilst working?!?! Guess I'm going to have to pick up a bottle of Ten or Sapphire or something.

MMMMMMMMMMM.... Gin Martini, dirty, with two olives..... MMMMMMMMM.....

This thread keeps trying to escape.

McNevin · Post by **McNevin** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 1:38 pm

Oh yeah... this thread. I was wondering why my life felt less complete!

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 1:46 pm

A big emptiness was welling up inside you. You felt despair, but you knew not why. If only you knew what was causing such pain. Unexpectedly, you felt at peace. Lo, for the Hey J3RK thread has risen from the depths, bringing tidings of good will.

Note that this is to "cure" monkeys of laziness, (doing what they want to instead of what they're told to do...)
Good thing I don't have to worry about anti-laziness drugs yet... I've been drinking wine at work for a few hours now... I have a deadline to meet today and yet I seem to be posting on the monkeylair...
