Hardly a week and I’ve exhausted my 1Gig bandwidth quota. The dist-upgrade is to blame. Apart from crossing 1Gig it gave me a few hours of sweating with broken libc.

Notes on game scripting: I know its quite generic a statement, but the article was nice. Something reminds me of what went wrong (years ago) when my prof asked me about whats good : game performing differently on varying power of hardware or remaining same. I got the question wrong and said that its to stay the same thinking of just the simluation clock (on my test bed things were so slow that my simulation clock was hitting (or was hit by) the system badly – which I realized a year ago running the program on faster system). [Regret] [.]

It was great to play that 1998 game again. Sanitarium has a setting similar to Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind and (vaguely) Vanilla sky. All portrayal of dreams and the way they are affected by the surroundings never fail to impress me.

Finishing un-finished games of the mid 1990’s is my latest job for the weekends.

1. Airtel customer care: There is no menu item which says hit so-so
to talk to cust care guy. But the number 9 still works.

2. MS word 2003: You need a ‘plain text’ plugin to read plain text.

3. My almighty machine wimpers with Delta force… Novalogic’s own
voxel landscape sux on GeForce 6600. They have problem with hidden
face clipping and culling while on hardware rendering.
