A new version of Dicewars has been released which makes it v0.3.4 beta.

It’s not a massive update, just the function of the sleep mode being supported when the DS is closed.

Mysterious Pingbacks

August 30, 2007 aceman Leave a comment

If any people that I’ve linked to and pinged back in posts are wondering why they might be getting pings from blogspot, I’m copying this blog on there.

This is still my main blog as I can’t stand the way blogger works, especially with images, but since I’m copying posts over to there, you may get a pingback.

thumbs up

What the Flock?

August 28, 2007 aceman 2 comments

While I’m waiting for a trailer to upload to YouTube, I’m just testing this Flock browser which seems pretty good, but also seems to use a lot more resources than Firefox and to be honest, you could probably find an extension for Firefox that does the same thing as Flock.

I’ll take a look in a mo to see if I can find extensions to give the same functionality, if so, it kinda makes Flock = Firefox + bloatware.

Well, it seems I’ve found the extensions needed to give me the ’social’ functions that Flock has included, but where Flock is around 10MB, Firefox and the extensions probably add up to around 6.5MB (all before installation). So which extensions give the same functionality?

  • del.icio.us buttons – Add a couple of buttons to the toolbar which allow you to tag sites and add them to your de.icio.us bookmarks. It’s an official del.icio.us extension too.
  • Scribefire – Since Flock is a ’social browser’, blogging to different services like WordPress and blogger is part of the browser, Scribefire allows you to post to your blog in pretty much the same way, with just a click of an icon.
  • Wizz RSS News Reader – Not particularly a social thing, but since Firefox doesn’t have an in-built feed reader anymore, this is a good alternative.
  • Firefox Universal Uploader – Great if you want to upload stuff to Flickr, YouTube, Picasa and even Facebook plus a few more.

The media bar and web clipboard are things I could do without since the media bar is another resource hog and I personally have no use for the web clipboard and there doesn’t seem to be a Firefox extension for something similar, so I guess not a lot of people are interested either.

Friday Former Site #2

August 25, 2007 aceman 2 comments

Ok, so it’s a day late as I forgot about it last night and WordPress seemed to have been down for most of the morning, so while I’m taking a break from GTA: Vice City Stories due to a glitch where I’m trapped in a wall and am going to get the suicide code from gamefaqs, here is what was supposed to have been Friday Funny Site #2.

It seems this guy decided to live the bachelor life and live it on a boat on the Great Lakes too. He also has a ‘boob page’ which is great as he’s managed to get his photo took with some women that have written his name on their boob, other pics are just of his name on a boob, but still pretty awesome to even have had that privilege (*thinks about starting a ’send pic of ‘aceman’ on boob’ page*†).

All aboard for … Ziggyland.com

†In fact, if any females (of at least 18+) with breasts ample enough want to send me pics like this, I’d be more than happy to accept them. (E-mail address is over there at the top –>) :P
