Overall I think the blog section is a nice addition to the TLforum since it generates contents that sometimes do not fit in the general forum, and a lot of the things are more personal. Though I do not recall a guideline for blog forum (maybe I just missed it) or one equivalent of the SC2 and Strategy forum, apparently some form of rules are enforced and blogs are closed on a daily basis. So now I'm hungry and sleepy and yea fight the power and all.

So this upcoming semester I have to fork over another $60 just so I can use the parking lot/garage from my college, this makes it an average of $150 a year or so. How much do you guys pay?

So recently I finish building my new computer, and I was very happy with it. The last part to go in was the graphiccard, the ECS Geforce 9600GT, and it was then that a problem arose.

STARCRAFT HAS VIDEOLAGS SO I CANNOT PLAY IT PROPERLY.
the latest nVidia driver seems to not help as the gpu plays everything perfectly except starcraft. I know its the GPU because right before installing it, I had the Radeon X1650pro and SC was playing just fine. Now is anyone else experiencing the same problem with their Geforce 9 series card(s)? And even if you have some other graphiccard (I heard this was a problem on some 8 series cards as well), can you offer some suggestion and help?

I tried checking and unchecking basically every combination of the options in "compatibility" mode for windows xp, it doesnt help. I turned off xfire, it doesnt help. I reinstall the latest driver, that too, did not help.

Comp specs:
E8400
2gb PC8500
Geforce 9600GT 512mb

So far after graduating High School, I now attend a local community college and gotten myself a decent job. However my life is worse than before, in my opinion. My performance at school is sub par, my room is a mess, my bank account is always empty, and I think I'm losing weights too. So what I'm gonna do after the next week (when my new computer is done building) is to set up a time limit and strictly follow it. I spent way too much time sitting on the computer chatting in IRC or reading/posting on TLnet. Starting next week I will limit my self to 5 hours of gaming per week and at least 8 hours of sleep per day. Do all my school work before other entertainment activities, and do all things on time.

Oh, and my sudden inspiration for this blog is from Evan's and Pheer's blog.

Hey TLnet, I have dilema.

My retarded sister woke me up as I was trying to sleep and its now 11:40PM. I have to get up at 3:30 to go to work so i essentially have 4 hours of sleep in which I will be feeling very very crappy when i wake up. Should I

Take a nap then work
sleep anyway
pull all nighter then sleep AFTER work.


note, I work at UPS so it involves lifting a lot of heavy boxes for like 4 hours.


help me decide quick!!!

I never really like them since I prefer good old regular black coffee, and Starbucks coffees are for noobs. But after watching a VODs on youtube today, my opinion changed, I guess Starbucks are ok. Maybe I'll go and try some this week or something.

From now on I'm just gonna archive random IM conversations that I think are funny.

As with all things, something must evolve for it to retains its usefulness and efficiency as time goes by. To change itself and adapt to the situation and current time, this is the same with all things, even the System itself.

The System is a vast network of rules and policies, created purely from what information gathered within the Database itself which harnested the information from outside the Collective, that is to say, the outside world. Ever since it was created, the System had undergoes many changes, each making it more useful than ever before. These changes help the System evolve, to be more efficience, and reliable. Recently, though, the Database was flooded with streams of new information, making the System more or less completely obsolete, and so it received a new Revision.

Unlike other Revisions of the past, this new Revision did not just update the minor rules and policies, it provided some newer core components for the System itself. These new components provided an even more refined set of policies and thus headed the Collective itself onto a new path. Changes are already happening, and the goals have be re-prioritized. The Collective is entering a newer time, and it stands ready to meet the challenge.
