A lot of these people I do not know personally.

And amongst our seniors Shiben (ORB) plays most games. He is like the god-of-gaming.

Then there is Rao and Balnagireddy (sorry for any misspellings). They were both excellent at quake. Bala was also very good at age. Also, there is Sumanth who used to play very good age.

Of course there will be many that I have missed so please just point out any mistakes and I will correct them.

timepass

Dont believe everything you hear on chat … here’s why

<me>: you there?
BUZZ!!!
<raul>: bol
<me>: kuch nahin
<me>: was just testing new feature of yahoo
<raul>: wat… u were testing the buzz
<me>: no …
<me>: its an improved client
<me>: it ensures that communication happens in realtime
<me>: with encryption so that others cannot read this message
<raul>: okk..
<me>: do you have a pentium or an AMD?
<raul>: AMD
<me>: ahh …
<me>: even better … AMD to AMD features better encryption
<raul>: 3200+
<me>: similar processors you see
<raul>: the encryption is processor based ???? strange
<me>: it depends on the instruction set. AMD has SSE … and pentiums have their own thing (i forget what)
<raul>: okk..
<me>: chal thanks man …
<raul>: AFAIK the OS usually hides the details of the processor frm programs rite..
<me>: yeah, it does add a layer of abstraction but you can usually tailor your program for a processor
<me>: try this out … if you run mplayer it will say “compiled with runtime cpu detection”
<raul>: okk…
<me>: and it gets CPU flags with the special instructions that are supported by the processor
<raul>: ohh..
<raul>: sahi hai…
<me>: anyway yahoo is also doing a similar thing
<me>: cool naa …
<raul>: thts nice.. we cn finally expect messengers to crash less..
<me>: yeah …
<me>: chal thanks man
<raul>: netime.. bbye

PS – yeah … raul is the striker for real madrid ;p

PS1 – this actually happened – ask aziz

PS2 – try it out sometime, its kinda fun. i actually expected raul to figure it out when i said “communication happens in realtime”

PS3 – tipo responded to this with “_||_”

PS4 – i attempted this on “a guy with a palindromic name” who replied with only yeah and kewl.

PS5 – Srikanth Cherla could not be reached. Otherwise it would have been a lot of fun

PS6 – Kinda reminds me of the time when we were chatting with arun from shamanths account. That was hilarious.

PS7 – no one else on yahoo responding

PS8 – i am supposed to be doing gre right now

the resurrection of bf2

Yes, ladies and gentlemen … (dunno how many ladies are reading this ;p)

But bf2 is back. Hip hip hurray. For the uninitiated and out of touch (way way way out of touch) bf2 is just about the most intense game in the world. And its back in a brand new flavour ala Bf2 special forces.

So, come on, join the part-ay … Yesterday’s games were quite intense. Special forces has a lot of cool stuff. (Dont have time to write a full review). Oh, and could someone tell Mangla and Trappi that bf2 is back. (Yeah, i know, Mangla plays(ed) well).

Oh and I think ug3 must have gotten new pc’s (decent pc’s). If thats true, then seriously you gotta give bf2 a try. We’ll try to also setup an account server so that we can play over different subnets etc (or if the sysadmin’s could be kind enough to enable UDP broadcasts we’d be able to fool the game into thinking we are all on one big subnet).

Oh, and one more thing … yesterday I came across this puzzle. Its fun to do , I ended up wasting two whole hours .

———————————————

PS – post inspired by Saki

PS1 – DoTA is fun

PS2 – Shamanth is evil. He makes people stop bf2 in the middle. Lets all kick Shamanth.

PS3 – Must finish configuring 14.6 …

PS4 – My todo list is huge …

PS5 – Urghh !!! Classes !!! Dont wanna go.

PS7 – I got a new keyboard

PS8 – slogging seems to have died a premature death. Need to revive it. The next post may be on “The huha-ness of tipo”. (Assuming I can find the stupid ass draft).

PS9 – have you read this?

PS10 – WTF wrong with the israelis?

PS11 – Had excellent dinner yesterday. Quite pleased.

PS12 – BTP going forward. Sucked at writing python code at first. Now am getting back into the groove.

PS13 – Woah, 13 PS’s, and I wasnt even trying

krrish and php

went and saw krrish the other day. it was decent. atleast they have finally figured out how to get some jolly good special effects. the songs were nuisance-istical. mostly , they were a pain in the ass. oh and does anyone else think that priyanka chopra looked fat in that movie?? I thought she looked like a hippopotamus with a gland problem (ok, i know that is hyperbolae, but the calvin and hobbes strip which has that phrase is quite funny)

php was nice too. php as in phir hera pheri. but i am sure u got that. bipasha basu looked jolly good. the jokes were funny. atleast it lived up to its expectations.

speaking of expectations, the one movie which was not jolly good was fanaa. that was atrocious. i mean seriously how can one chap with a machine gun not hit a helicopter once but this lady will take out a glock (pistol) and take one shot and the damn thing explodes. i mean seriously, there needs to be atleast some level of realism.

also saw mi-3. its ok. the action is decent. of course have you seen Tom Cruise run?? he looks hilarious.

saw something the lord made on hbo. was a decent film. the quality u’d expect from an hbo original movie.

saw the untouchables. gg acting by deNiro, and Andy Garcia. Sean Connery was ok.

saw Posiedon at IMAX. worth the experience. movie was ok, but the IMAX made it a lot better.

saw It could happen to you on zee studio. nice film.
