S3 cards work with anything.

[High Treason]

Aye, I have the PCI version of that card and it's been very good, just don't know how it compares to the ET4000 W32p on the VL-BUS. I know it doesn't have 2D acceleration but that's a Windows thing anyway and I don't really use it for performance in Windows.

I've smelled a rat though, because the STB is one of a few things that failed recently and I tried to find a link. After a while I remembered re-capping that card and a sound card that died early in the year. I thought to myself that the card failure couldn't be caps failing because I'd redone those already with a reputable brand... Seems my bargain bag of the things got me what I paid for. Due to me already having soldering gear out to tamper with other stuff, I decided to remove every capacitor on the STB card... It works again. I don't have very good tools for testing caps, but I know they aren't supposed to be short - I wasn't even aware that electrolytic ones could do that. This would also explain why the host adapter was complaining before the VGA went, as the power was likely being used up.

I'm still going to take the S3 anyway, because it will be good as a spare - it may even be better than this TSeng for all I know.

Having realized I have a stack of re-capped parts that stopped working several months in (that I assumed had just died of old age) I have a horrible feeling I'll be tasting lead for a few days while I go in and try to find out how much of it is still working. I hope that K6 board really is dead, because I didn't have another the same form factor and had to rebuild the entire machine when that went out...

What a bloody oversight.

[Person of Color]

So wait, you got sold counterfeit capacitors?

[High Treason]

Possibly, or they were damaged somewhere between the manufacturer and me - either is possible.

By all means laugh at me, I fucked up. Dead Vibra 16, caps removed, working. Trying to locate the K6 board. Next time I'll just spend the extra money and go solid state.

So where is...

DOOM vs Quake

Strogg made from demons, mars, space stations, the hell dimension and the trippy lucid dreamlike worlds of the slipgate realm all mixed into one

Stroggs could open the rift to the hell dimensions and the rest writes itself

Wouldn't work; Doomguy doesn't know how to jump.
Takes a lot of practice to jump three inches off the ground while yelping "HAAUUP!!!!"

I love how Mr. Hands sounds like the Quake guy.

[HulkNukem]

It always bothered me that the main character from Rage was just recycled sounds from other id games.

[Gambini]

There was a main character in Rage?

[ReaperMan]

Yeah Rage guy.

[Gambini]

You´re good. you manage to make me laugh with all your three word posts

Believe it or not, he actually has a name too.

I really enjoyed GotG, I already posted about it in this very thread, but I can't understate how much I enjoyed it. I saw it four times in theaters and didn't see it anymore after that only because no one else wanted to see it. I also dislike movie theaters, not how I prefer to watch movies. Its all good though, it releases on DVD a day before my birthday, and who knows, maybe id Software will release new-Doom info on my birthday (Dec 10) to celebrate its anniversary..... probably not.

[High Treason]

Awake all night and bored.

Wondering if I can post here on my 486 using Arachne.

Probably not practical, it takes almost five minutes to
load web pages because one image probably uses more than
50% of the RAM in this thing, even with the POD83 in
here it's not that quick. Fun little experiment though.

holy crap. i couldn't even read a quarter of that without having coffee shoot out of my nose.

i love diversity. keeps things balanced when you can look at someone and say, 'whoa. too far.', and get yourself a reality check off other people's example.

I gotta save this one for when I'm more awake. Amazing.



Shadow #1 Fan is cute though. He looks like too much of a normal faggot to be into this shit. I'd give him an anal fissure if he shaved his fucking gay ass John Waters moustache. Honestly that little queer could get fucked by any negro man he wanted, why is he on this shithole of a website?

[High Treason]

I actually met this Paul Rhodes guy IRL because he attended the IT course I did at college for all of one day before quitting it. He was just as fucked up in the head as he seems here. He had his own website (Toonaphilia.net or something like) and would sell you a piece of paper from that site stating you were married to whatever cartoon character you wanted. For a while I spoke to him on MSN, winding him up about some game he was developing - a generic FPS which I still have a copy of - but backed off quickly when I realized how messed up he was.

He's in prison now for being a pedo anyhow, so the world is a slightly better place than it once was.

Edit: Also, is it just me, or does he look a bit like Hitler? Maybe it's just his hair.

Edit 2: The last couple of lines of that video are missing... You aren't missing much.
"I'm fed up of people saying that over and over. We understand the concepts. Get it in your thick fucking skulls. Another thing. You have a go at us because we have a go at you, I'm sorry, we have a go at you because you have a go at us first."

Actually, try this one for the full video;

is this any kind of surprise when he has fantasies about cartoon characters that look like per-pubescent children?

again, diversity is great. these kind of people give abortionists and secret sterilization projects all kinds of fodder for their position.

someone should invent a perpetual motion scrotum kicking machine and test it on this guy

This one made the news here recently, stepfather mistreating a 3 years old girl. View discretion advised.

You don't need to understand what they are saying. They tied the girl legs.

Our panel tried hard to be conservative and careful but inadvertently contributed to three false "epidemics" -- attention deficit disorder, autism and childhood bipolar disorder. Clearly, our net was cast too wide and captured many "patients" who might have been far better off never entering the mental health system.

So bipolar disorder is part of the trinity? To tell the truth, the definition of bipolar disorder always sounded bullshit to me. A person can be depressive, and that's where the diagnosis should stop.

Can you post a couple of screenshots please? I'm curious how a game made by a weirdo like him would look like.
