Seriously? I’m being given a car and yet I still have not got myself into gear to check it out? Why have I not? I feel like an idiot and starting tomorrow I’m going to get right on the subject and immediately start proceedings. Its a small tight hard driving sports car, something I’ve wanted for a hell of a long time, and I just haven’t done anything about it?! God I feel like an idiot. On the subject of cars, I went to the Game1 LAN and Autosalon this past weekend, and a lot of jaw dropping “oh mah gawd” sounds were made. I took a ton of pictures too so check them out here.
We were sitting directly across from team Immunity too, which kinda screwed us over in every way of hoping we could win the 1.6 or source comps. On the subject of winning however, have a look at this little item, its a Naturalpoint TrackIR PRO 4 which apparently tracks your head movements whilst in games and moves your screen around. I won this down at the LAN as a random door prize. I was shunning this thing, until I went home and checked the actual price of this thing, its over $250 to buy it! I couldn’t believe it as I thought this thing was a simple little gimmick which you got from bargain bins. apparently not. I’m currently eBay’ing it for about half its price at auction, so if you’re interested in one for cheap, go ahead and check it out.
Today my entire TAFE class came out to my place and helped set up a powered wireless camera which will be monitoring the Squirrel Glider colony that’s out here at my place. The video will be then sent via a wireless link to the local primary school, and then from there sent to Melbourne to be placed on a website and streamed to all. I was surprised how quickly we achieved so much, as well as how easy it all went together. Pity the dirt around my house is somehow made of impenetrable rock, however some water and blisters soon fixed all that up.
As for my listening habits of late, they’ve gone all over the place. I’ve really been listening to a lot of HardTrance all streamed from the Internode Radio Network from DigitallyImported which allows me to stream it without it counting to my download allowance. I really love node for its crazy amount of free items and data. Well done node, well done. Otherwise, I’ve just been listening to HardStyle from BassByte in the car. ON that note, Audioholik has a new mix uploaded at BassByte by the way. As for the gaming side of things, I’ve played, and finished, NFS:Carbon. I got it on the Thursday afternoon at 1:30pm, and by 12:30am Friday morning, I had finished the game, which wasn’t so good, I had expected much more time taken. The storyline wasn’t great, but the FMV’s were really good, I have to give it that. In summary, its not as good as Most Wanted.
Ttfn!
This of course makes me a happy happy guy.
