    New topic because we dont seem to HAVE a general chat thread anymore.

    So, um... what is up with Googles logo today? Am I missing something?

    Charlie Chaplain's birthday?

    I LIKE TALCO.

    And yeah, today's logo is nice.

    I was thinking about starting such a topic for some time now. Wanted to call "The new non-gaming thread". :S

    Am I right to assume that that logo does not use Flash?

    Yet plays video and sound?

    HTML5 is cool.

    The one good thing Apple has done by not supporting flash is push HTML5 forward by a couple of years(?)

    See, I wouldn't know that if work didn't give me an iPad.

    What. That's a HTML5 video with no flash whatsoever? So cool.
    #
    Anonymous1157 12 years ago
    I too had absolutely no idea that it wasn't Flash.

    ... Shocking.

    Since this is the random chat thread...

    You know what someone should make? A Google Maps-like site for fantasy maps. How do I get from Neverwinter from Athkatla? What cities are close to Vivec? How far is Vault 101 from Tenpenny Tower?

    Would make the life of many gamers and mostly DMs so much easier.

    That. Would. Be. Awesome.

    One can already generate Minecraft maps that load as a Google Maps page with Tectonicus. It would simply be a matter of someone figuring out how to extract a map of the target game and render it in isometric/top-down at several zoom levels. (That is, unless you were hoping for an official solution, in which case you gotta go nag the developers.)

    Ah. Interesting. Doesn't seem to support finding itineraries though. I think that would be the main headache. Though there's probably software out there. Somewhere.

    First off: HI I am back (with a new user name) after.....Years . My old user name was LoneWolf.
    Secondly: Why not sit down and program one? You could make a simple program that stitches multiple images together with a set px/(distance here). Let users upload their own images and stitch them together with the software. An official site in a google maps type enviorment could contain the better maps for public use. This actually is not a bad idea...Wish I had more time...

    Something like this?

    Damn, MK beat me to it. But yeah, the Elder Scrolls have an absurd amount of documentation. I think you could easily burn an entire week just reading Skyrim-related lore.

    And, uh, the answer is Balmora. >.>

    While *I* didn't (despite a friend of mine telling me every so often to) watch it, it's not exactly weird. Open some episode on youtube and check consumer demographics

    New season of Doctor Who is AWESOME.

    Just saying.

    Anyone else using Evolve? It's kinda cool. I mostly like the whole keep-IM-usable-while-gaming thing, but I'd like to try the LAN bridging some time.

    So is it just me or are the "new posts" and "no new posts" broken? I was going to try using a different style but that just gives me a "Moved." message. EDIT: Add the quote and edit buttons to that.

    By the way Im using Firefox.

    They are broken. I think Ville is working on the style, I believe the site got more horizontal space. The forum looked wrong for a while, now it's simply broken.

    Give it some time, Ville will probably fix it. I hope so anyway.

    Interestingly enough it seems to have the broken-but visible look on my notebook, here.

    ...the fact that I know just enough about webpages to be able to throw some random buzzwords around but not actually point out the problem bothers me. Frankly for someone who is looking for a job in the IT industry I know disturbingly little IT.

    Is it working now? (And please remember to do the full refresh, shift-F5 or ctrl-F5 depending on your browser)

    Everything seems in place. Even the search function fares better.

    THE BALLS ARE BACK!!!

    Also, when did this turn into a confessional?

    Today, a friend of mine asked me what I was taking because I used a mortar (the one people know from RPG's, not the one people know from RTS's) to break up a block of instant noodle soup noodles.

    @Kario: On friday, the 15th April 2011, at 2:12 pm GMT.

    I've moved the forum to the subdomain forum. I am thinking of moving the www subdomain to another server, so this is the first step.

    *Enormous. And yes, yes we are.

    On the plus side, this means I instantly knew what Narvius meant.

    At least you don't have a friend who won't miss an occasion to remind you that you totally should watch it.
