Upgrading to WordPress 2.1 right now. Pardon if the place blows up or stops working for a bit.
LATER: Done. That was a little hairy. I didn’t realize what a big leap that was going to be. Lots of new files all over the place, a database upgrade, different admin pages. I guess I should have read the readme first. (Although I DID do a backup. I may be reckless but I’m not a fool.) Still, it was pretty painless as far as these things go.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to poke around in the upgraded admin pages and push all of the new buttons. Whee.
Secret of Good Secrets
Sometimes in-game secrets are fun and sometimes they're lame. Here's why.
Who Broke the In-Game Economy?
Why are RPG economies so bad? Why are shopkeepers so mercenary, why are the prices so crazy, and why do you always end up a gazillionaire by the end of the game? Can't we just have a sensible balanced economy?
Resident Evil 4
Who is this imbecile and why is he wandering around Europe unsupervised?
Games and the Fear of Death
Why killing you might be the least scary thing a game can do.
Shamus Plays LOTRO
As someone who loves Tolkein lore and despises silly MMO quests, this game left me deeply conflicted.
Thanks for being our guinea pig. We’ll be watching closely to see if you blow up. ;-)
While you’re playing with those config settings, can you change your RSS feed to full-text?
Pretty please?
I second the full text RSS feed (although if there are missing pictures, I’d still have to come over here anyway).
“push all the nw buttons”
Watch out for th “Do not push this EVER (no, not even then)” button.
“Well, that was close. Now let’s push all the buttons.”
Sounds remarkably similar to, “Y’all hold my beer and watch this.”
