no, really, white people can dance (and sing).

*proof*

sorry, i was in right field when i read this the first time. dvdshrink is the wrong tool for the job.

this isn't my department, but try http://www.doom9.org/guides.htm. hope that helps.

are you trying to make these playable on a dvd player, or on any pc?

i use dvd shrink regularly for making backups of my dvd movies, which i can then watch on a standalone or boxtop dvd player. you can find free it at http://www.dvdshrink.org.

pm or aim me if you have any questions on how to use it.

i wish i had been on time. i had a great time on the few (last) maps i did play. i'd love to see a chronological list to remind me what the heck i played and comment on the good, the bad, and the ugly.

lot-o-fun, thanks for putting this together.

welcome sid!

"May the sun never set on the GC empire!"

here's to looking forward (and having fun doing it).

voodoo-

ctrl+k will bring you to the search box in firefox. mad l33t.

right on. thanks for the input people.

my 2cents-

abandon the warranty criteria. you're going to need to replace the battery and transformer on any laptop > 1yr old (i've seen em go within the first six months).

but, if you buy an aftermarket battery and/or transformer (say from best buy), you still get the one year mfg warranty.

lastly, more bang for the buck on desktops. i know it's not ideal if you're in the dorms...

/me idles.

it's quiet, soft, and not what i expected. but it is good, and available online.

in other music news, the new weezer album is a flaming disappointment.

one of my good friends from back in michigan just celebrated the birth of his first daughter. he's the first in my group of friends, and the rest of us friends are staring at each other with stupid looks for gift ideas.

so, elder gc council, any recommendations? what do you get someone who can't play cs yet?

nice. we tried getting hitboxes to register/draw like you posted but i never had luck.

this is good info.

/me holds a moment of silence for strange.

he's been lost to ROSE, and i fear we may not see him again soon.

LOL!

nicely done.

mr fat:

you can add multiple aim screen names to one client using trillian.

after you complete the installation, follow the wizard to configure your FIRST aim account (you may be able to add multiple during the install, but i verified the following method). allow the program finish the install, then when trillian is running:

1. right click the systray icon, choose "connections" -> "manage my connections"

2. click "add new connection" at the bottom of the window. choose aim.

3. enter screen name and password, then click the box below to "automatically connect to this account on startup."

4. click connect.

i usually add my multiple personalities to my buddy list to confirm connection status. plus i always have at least one friend.

this feature is included with the basic value meal, no need to super size for $20, unless your ethically inclined to support the man.

http://www.trillian.cc

let's you connect to aim, icq, msn, yahoo, and irc, with multiple screeen names, simultaneously. the free version is really free; no spy/adware or advertisements.

i second strange's motion.

but i think my vote would go into indie/underground -> including hip hop, rock, and alt.

turn off your radio.

~$150 for processor, ~$50 for memory = ~$200.

or you could donate your box to a hungry and poor college student, take the write-off, and go 64bit.

if you're interested in this option, i'll give you my shipping info

*edit* lunk's price was higher than my 333mhz fsb 3200 ($20bux).

/me acts surprised.

anyone that can sniff plaintext sure knows how to break wep on 802.11b. at that point, unpatched windows exploits and shared resources become a concern. however, even if someone does gain unauthorized access to the network, what then? MOST (read: not all) sensitive data transfers between your bank, a merchant, etc employ a secure communication method with an algorithm much stronger than basic wep. so even if an intruder is listening to the data conversation from inside, they won't be able to make much of it.

however, unsecured logins (like here to the boards), plain email, and common day browsing can be observed by an intruder. but really, what threat does this put you at? your grocery club card identifies your shopping habits, so who really cares if your surfing habits may be paid attention to? bottom line: if you don't want a stranger to have the information your sending between point A and B, make sure you see the secure connection icon in your browser of choice.

lastly, in terms of personal defense, i like the following buffet:

ms antispyware beta 1

spybot search and destroy

adaware personal 1.5se

avg anti-virus free edition

all the above are freeware, and do a superb job of detecting (and prohibiting) spyware, malware, and virii. if your processor clock speed is below 1.6ghz, or you have less than 512mb, you may consider using just antispyware and avg to reduce processor load.

i can't find data to support, but hype is 80mpg, reality is 50 (+/- 5 miles). none the less, a drastic improvement.

Polk said California was once again the top state for growth in hybrid vehicle registrations. More than 25,000 new hybrids were registered in California, a 102 percent increase over 2003.

california has a great state tax refund/rebate for all types of alternative energy consumers, although some forms have their drawbacks. at times, solar panels can cost more to install and maintain than the savings they provide. still, tax incentives are a great way to undermine the (conspiracy theory) of big oil's strangle on the auto industry. although legislation has been accepted to control the emissions of a vehicle, i doubt much more ground can be gained to throttle the amount of fuel consumption.

i spent the past four years in lake tahoe, an area with an annual aggregated snowfall of over 350". it makes sense to have a monster truck there. it makes sense (and at times is the law) to put chains around your tires to give the needed traction in 3' (yes feet) of snow, plus the ice, and the occassional wandering grizzly bear. you wouldn't sell a snow mobile to a texan, so why do millions of americans living in moderate climates have to drive mini tanks? it's too bad there's not a way to circumvent people's glutany. somehow we've reverted back to the regan era. drive the biggest, baddest, gas guzzling hog you can find. even if you have complete disregard for the impact on the environment, surely you can not deny the impact on the supply/demand model at the pumps.

you keep your optimism, i'll keep my skateboard. just don't pass out from holding your breath.

played a little bit on deltamill as a t. there is only one bombsite, right? i still haven't had a first person visual of the site due to the pure ct rompage that round, but...

i had fun. i liked the map, i liked the vertical dimension of the house.

has anyone noted pure ct awp/scope ownage from the upper levels of the bldg? i haven't had enough exposure to see how bad it gets, but that's my sole concern. other than that, rock on.

uhm, it's happening again (since stats reset). guess strange is really really into that "other" game.

lol, thx.
