Glory to Arstotzka! - Zarkonnen
http://zarkonnen.livejournal.com/37601.html
Apr 28th, 2013 02:50 pm. Is an upcoming indie game where you play an immigration inspector at a recently re-opened border checkpoint. You have to check paperwork and look for fakes and smugglers and terrorists. You have to support your family, so if you move too slowly or get it wrong and have your pay docked, they have to starve and freeze. But is following your job description always the right thing? Do you let in vile traffickers and deny entry to refugees?

Cis Het Cantab - Zarkonnen. Apr 25th, 2013 09:22 pm. So Id ask you to read this carefully, and not assume that I am implying something other than what Im writing. This isnt meant to be any of the following classics: Women are the real oppressors! Silenced All My Life, You must always speak in measured tones (so we can better ignore you), or some sort of oppression olympics or false equivalence. The something in question was a picture of a placard that said:. In both cases, people I know and like put me i...

Fernanda Milan - Zarkonnen. Sep 10th, 2012 05:08 pm. Warning: the following is all about violence against trans people and rape. Short version: Demo. Tonight at 5:30 at the Danish embassy in London against the deportation of a trans activist to Guatemala, where she'll likely end up dead.). Repeatedly. She was then trafficked into a brothel in Jutland. She was eventually freed and is now staying with Reden International. But: her request for asylum has been denied. She will be deported back to Guatema...

Terrorists on Twitter - Zarkonnen. Apr 28th, 2013 02:57 pm. Let's compare the Twitter output of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. One of the Boston bombers, with Paul Chambers. A UK man who was arrested by anti-terror police for having supposedly made a terrorist threat against a local airport. Slightly creepily, Tsarnaev's twitter account. Is still available for viewing. And you know what? Now take Paul Chambers, who posted "Crap! But was it done publicly? If he had made the same joke in private, let's say at the dinn...

Das Update - Zarkonnen. Dec 29th, 2012 11:43 am. What have I been up to? Working on the new SE:SS. Frankly, it's increasingly looking like only the graphics and sound will survive from the old version, and I might also ditch the combat mode as an overcomplication. On the plus side, it's really coming together. Working on Selenium Builder. Nearly done with version 2.0.4, which will work a lot better than 2.0.2! We also had a guest comic. From our friend Jenny.

Well-behaved Games: A rant-slash-manifesto - Zarkonnen. Well-behaved Games: A rant-slash-manifesto. Feb 5th, 2013 11:40 am. Don't max out the CPU if you don't have to. On my left leg from playing Civilization 5, a. Strategy game that somehow still maxed out my CPU and GPU. So, please, use sleep(). Give the CPU a rest. Save my legs, and my battery life. The game must run smoothly in critical moments. If the install is X GB, don't require 2X GB during installation. About half. So please -.

Magic from Bargains - Zarkonnen. Apr 28th, 2013 02:51 pm. I just read a pretty neat Escapist article. That argues for more interesting forms of magic in computer games. One idea I really like (because I'm horrible) is having to pay a permanent price for each spell cast. (The spells, in exchange, being very powerful and useful.). Here's some ideas for what each spell cast could cost you:. Your field of vision contracts by 1%. Your vision loses 1% saturation. You lose 5% of your HP. Drinking a potion cause...

Dune, the ideal film version - Zarkonnen
http://zarkonnen.livejournal.com/36591.html
Dune, the ideal film version - Zarkonnen. Dune, the ideal film version. Jan 31st, 2013 05:51 pm. And I recently watched the 1984 film version. And attempted to follow this up with watching the 2000 miniseries. Neither of them is an entirely satisfying attempt at putting the book onto the screen, and we spent a lot of time discussing what our ideal Dune film would look like. What changes would it have to make to the source material? Who would be cast in it? I'm not sure in detail, but I have some ideas:.
