Debates / Satanism

« on: September 12, 2008, 02:25:45 am »

Guys, I think I may be a satanist.

basically, here's what satanism is:
-they do not believe in heaven or hell, or God or Satan.
-heaven and hell are merely states of mind.
-to a satanist, he or she is their OWN god.
-they live life to indulge.
-they don't waste time and love on ingrates. they don't believe in herd conformity or religious pipe dreams
-they focus on enjoying life and doing as they please (but there are rules, so, if raping=hapiness, then so be it, but thats a no no)

many people actually live by the philosophies of satanism (as they are based upon the carnal instincts of humans), but dont want to be refered to as satanists. most americans just call themselves christians even though they do not know what that religion fully entails as far as beliefs go, rituals, etc.

from wiki:
Current church teachings have laid claim to philosophical ideas such as individualism, self-indulgence, and "eye for an eye" morality, and teachings from Friedrich Nietzsche and Ayn Rand. Borrowing Crowley's terminology, its adherents define Satanism as a "Left-Hand Path" religion, rejecting traditional "Right-Hand Path" religions such as Christianity for their perceived denial of life and emphasis on guilt and abstinence. Unlike Theistic Satanism, which is rejected by the Church of Satan as Christian heresy rather than Satanism, it does not literally worship Satan, but rather uses Satan as a symbol for people's natural inner desires, emphasizing atheism in contrast to worship of any god


It's really complicated. I'm doing a research paper on it in my Comp. Comm. class in my high school as a senior project.

Really, this overview is very poor but I'm tired and I just wanted to put it out there. I'll go back later and fix it up, adding details and such.

Discuss.

Entertainment / Question about WoW trial

« on: December 15, 2007, 02:12:42 pm »

It NEEDS to have a payment method selected for the trial to work, and theres this thing called "Bill to Phone" which addds the fees of playing to your phone bill. HOWEVER, no charges will be incurred unless I choose to upgrade my account from a guest pass; but I'm unsure of this. If I choose to "pay" this way, will I be charged at all? Even though they say I won't unless I choose to upgrade? I'm scared to go through with such a decision; it even asks me if I'm 18. I really wanna play though. And they reassured that no charges will be made unless I choose to upgrade....

sigh.

EDIT: well, I needed a quick response and I wasnt getting it from here, so I went through with it. The automated phone lady kept telling "by pressing 1, you agree that charges may be placed on your account" even though IT'S A FREE TRIAL and the only reason they want to know such info is in case YOU CHOOSE TO UPGRADE.

I hope I'm right.

Entertainment / New GTAIV trailer today

« on: December 06, 2007, 06:33:33 pm »

Can't wait. I'm willing to bet that the internet will break when the trailer is released. It did when the last trailer came out. Everyone went apeshit and rockstargames.com was down for a few hours.

such a piece of !@#$%. NOW there's a problem with p2p programs:

Limewire: upon trying to boot it up, it just sits at the screen, stuck at 12 percent (Loading HTML Engine). I've googled for help, but to no avail.

BearShare: it wont connect me to the internet. It says "unable to detect internet connection" when I clearly have one available. I've given it exceptions in my firewall, i've even disabled my firewall, but nothing works.

Other Discussion / pc random freezes

« on: December 03, 2007, 08:04:02 pm »

I'll be on my PC, doing whatever, when things will just stop working for about 15 to 20 seconds at a time. Clicks won't respond, if I click too much, I get the hourglass cursor, and it says "not responding".

Also, upon bootiing up my PC, it needs to do a "disk check" and I let it do the check, but as it checks the files, it will say "file 100810 is unreadable" and it says that for a few files. I don't know if this is unrelated, but it says that every time I do a disk check, and everytime I restart, it wants me to do a diskcheck. Any ideas?

Other Discussion / Internet Troubles

« on: December 02, 2007, 02:10:28 am »

1. My internet will sometimes just stop working. Can't load any webpages, BUT, if I'm downloading a torrent, it continues. Weird. It may be my routers connection; the cable may have a slim chance of being faulty. Any ideas?

2. ALSO; Firefox forced me to update and as a result, I lost all my quicklinks and bookmarks. HELP ME RESTORE THEM.

Entertainment / Gamespot Editor fired over negative review of Kane and Lynch: Dead Men

« on: December 02, 2007, 01:02:49 am »

Jeff Gerstmann, an editor at Gamespot, was fired because he gave a 6/10 to the game Kane and Lynch: Dead Men. Why? Because Gamespot.com was advertising this game HEAVILY. It's like, there were ads for this game all over Gamespot, hyping it up and !@#$%, and when it comes out finally, it gets a 6/10. Apparently the game developers (Eidos) were upset by this and Gerstmann was fired as a result.

Here are some links:

WARNING! INCASE YOU DIDNT SEE THE PRIOR WARNING: THERE ARE NASTY TEXTS AHEAD! DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE A BABY BOO HOO CUPCAKE!

If you haven't seen these videos, they're nasty. They're shock videos. Either one starts out with two chicks making out, then it gets really nasty and they start eating !@#$% and throwing up and eating the vomit and wiping it all over their !@#$% and stuff. People post "reactions"  on YouTube, and the people reacting to the videos are all gagging and stuff, throwing up, crying and running away. But I watched both and didn't turn away at all. Don't get me wrong. They're nasty as !@#$%. I just didn't feel like throwing up. Even Joe Rogan (host of Fear Factor in the USA) couldn't watch the video.

If you're feeling brave, the videos have their own websites. [figure it out yourself]
be forewarned; it may make you throw up.

Entertainment / Ocarina of Time is no longer "The Highest Rated Game of All Time"

« on: November 18, 2007, 03:25:01 pm »

Super Mario Galaxy is.

http://kotaku.com/gaming/%231/game-rankings-super-mario-galaxy-surpasses-ocarina-of-time-as-top-rated-game-323997.php

I actually like Super Mario Galaxy MORE than OoT. Don't get me wrong, OoT is a lot of fun to play and is a fanfuckingtastic game. But Galaxy is better.

« on: November 03, 2007, 04:18:04 pm »

I just had an awesome idea. What if Nintendo made Mario Party for the DS? Imagine playing with other people via WiFi connection, using the touch screen to play minigames....wouldn't that be fuckin awesome?

Oh yeah, there's also this thing.

Entertainment / Assassin's parkour struggles to fit on 360 disk; PS3 version has memory issues

« on: October 13, 2007, 02:15:35 pm »

Ubisoft has revealed some of the problems it is facing to make Assassin's parkour as good on the PlayStation 3 as it is on the Xbox 360.

Patrice Desilets, the creative director of Assassin's parkour, revealed that with the Xbox 360 version the problem is the storage medium. Desilets told Pro-G in an interview that one of the biggest challenges the team is currently facing with the Xbox 360 version of the game is fitting everything into a DVD-9 disc; something that is not a problem with the Blu-ray Disc format used by the PlayStation 3.

However, the PlayStation 3 version of Assassin's parkour is experiencing different issues because of the platform's memory architecture, which-- contrary to the Xbox 360, is not unified but split into 256 MB of main memory and 256 MB of video memory.

Desilets added: "Both have their own challenges. Right now we have a big challenge on the 360 to make it fit on a DVD, to put five languages, to put all the data on eight gigs. On the Blu-ray side we're really good, but then the memory is quite different. How we handle memory is really different between the two machines and we're struggling right now on the PS3. But we have people who are really dedicated and we're having help from Microsoft on one side and Sony on the other side to have the same quality on both systems. It really depends on the week basically as to who's best."

http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/14797/Assassins-parkour-Struggling-to-Fit-on-an-Xbox-360-DVD/


Now see, here's what I don't understand; how come Valve can fit Half Life 2, Half Life 2 episode 1 and Half Life 2 episode 2 and Portal and Team Fortress 2 onto a single 360 disk, but Ubisoft can't fit Assassin's parkour on a 360 disk? I'm starting to wonder if Ubisoft is even a competent game developer anymore. I've watched recent previews of Assassins parkour and it's still as buggy as it's always been. Alot of their games are buggy.

Other Discussion / Help me buy a Capture Card

« on: October 03, 2007, 06:24:25 pm »

I'm looking for something around or under 150 US dollars that captures good quality image and audio.

Also, it needs to have a long USB cable (about 40 - 50 feet) so I can run it from my PC to my 360. If it doesn't come with a cable that long, could I possible buy one like that? If so, where?

Entertainment / Custom Halo gametypes and Forge

« on: September 24, 2007, 09:20:00 pm »

What do you think you'll make? And also, post here suggestions for other's custom gametypes and work on your own!

I had two gametypes already developed in my mind.

1. Hide and Go Snipe
variant: team hide and go snipe (there's a team of snipers and a team of hiders. same rules apply)

team 1: sniper
team 2: hiders

The sniper has unlimited sniper ammo, is invulnerable, and moves at normal speed.
The hiders move faster by an as of yet undetermined percentage, and have no shields. They're also invisible.
No radar functionality in this gametype. No grenades. Hiders only have pistols, but it doesn't matter because the sniper is invulnerable.

How to score: This is what I'm having trouble on. What I was thinking was, (I don't know if this one thing is possible) the hiders start out with 5 points (kills, captures, whatever) and the sniper has to either tie or surpass this. If the sniper passes this number, the game is over, sniper wins. Then someone else is the sniper and they have to try and pop some skulls.

2. Spartan Laser Tag

team 1: (one person) is "it"
team 2: everyone else

Basically, what we have here is a classic game of tag, but...when you get laser'd, you're it.

team 1 is invulnerable, with unlimited Laser ammo and moves at normal speed.
team 2 is without shields, moves 300 percent faster, and have pistols (again, doesn't matter cuz team 1 cant be killed)

no radar functionality, no grenades, no weapon or vehicle spawns.

How to score: (again, this one has some problems) The guy who is "it" has to try and kill someone with the laser. The number of rounds is like 15, with the score to win being 1 kill. Once the guy who is it "lasers" someone, the round is over and then the guy who got killed is now "it". Fun, right? But what if someone gets double or triple killed (at the same time, not like within 2 seconds of each other). Then, what, they're both it? No, I guess it depends. How would you choose which one of the two who got killed would be it? :\ Hosts decision I guess.



Feedback, improvements, your own ideas...go crazy!

It's weird, on sites like Gametrailers, IGN, and Gamevideos, none of the videos load. And they're all flash based movie players, too. Any help?
