Server is up

Well ive been trying to figure out how to get a server up so that I can host my own websites and what not. And after working my ass off, and a few hours later, its up an running!.

Here is some specs:
2.0 ghrz AMD athlon 64
1 gig Corsair RAM
60gig Hard Drive
droadband connection

Right now im handing out anywhere from 5-10 Free hosting spots. If you are interested and would wan't to have your own site or w/e just emial me at jjonesdeisgn@gmail.com.

The rules go as follow:

You will get around 500mb

You will probaly get FTP access

you won't be allowed to host big files

If you start drawing to much bandwith I may ask you to start paying a small fee
(would be like 3-5 dollars/month)

if in anyway you use my server to host/do somthing illigal, I will shut your site down and remove it.

Please let me know if you are interested!
ALso we are still looking for afils, so let me know asap!

Rome: Total War

What is Rome: Total War?

Rome: Total War is a RTS (real time strategy) which is taken to the next step. Setup like a board game, you build up your army, control and build city's, and create and destroy allies.

Where the real fun comes in, is when it's time to battle. you can take the easy way out by clicking the "Automatically resolve battle" Which jumps through the battle doing all the work for you. Or my personal favorite, is fighting the battle your self.

When you get into the start of the battle, your leader gives your troops a small pep talk, getting them riled up and ready to fight. The higher your leaders skill, the more energy they get, and the better they will fight. Once you listen to his pep talk (or after skipping the cut scene) you can choose to wait(for conditions to get better) or setup your army into a different formation. After your done with that, click the start button will hop you into battle. From there, what happens on the battle field is determined by you.

Game modes

There are a couple of game modes you can play on. After doing the tutorial you can choose from a few game modes. Your can start your campaign to take over all the land of Rome. Play a Historical battle, where you are playing a pre-arraigned battle based on historical battles. Or you can play Custom Battle. Which allows you to setup the battle field, The number of units, number of upgrades, Etc.

Whats with these movies?

A Scanner Darkly

This movie was actually not a bad movie. It was done using cel shading, and is actually not that bad of an idea when it comes to trying out new things. They used the cel shading to there advantage too, Which was amazing how they did it.

What do I think?

If this was the directors first movie, then I would give him HUGE props. but at this point, It's not. Overall this movie would be considered NOT that good. With a loose storyline and a lack of details on whats going on it makes for a stretched out tweaker movie. I know this is suppose to be one of those "sci-fi Mystery" time movies, but it does lack in quite a bit.

What would I rate it?

Personally I'd rate this movie at about a 6 out of 10. but only because they used the cel shading to achieve AWESOME effects. Hopefully this director will put out another movie using the same techniques, but with a little better story line. Hopefully next time he will choose a better main character too. I mean come on, he was good in the matrix, but I can't take him seriously anymore.

Wrap it up

It was an ok movie, Id probably watch it again, but only because id pay more detail and try and figure out a few things that to me they left out. If you want to watch a movie that is different, then id choose this one.

A Follow Up On My Last Post

You Forgot Mac!?

So I forgot to add The Operating System made by Macintosh aka apple. I didn't do that on purpose. It's just so rare to sea a mac around here, so it mearly slipped my mind. Ill go straight into this.

Macs are only good for a couple things, Artsy program's ,animation (2d and 3d) and as a boat anchor.

The only things that apple has made that are worth the hundreds of pennies you pay for them, are the Ipod (Trademark) and the Intel chip set laptop which we all know people only buy so they can slap Linux on them, maybe even windows (but they will only do that if they play lots of games)

So to make up for my mistake of leaving Mac out, I have collected a few items to make up for it. Please do Enjoy!

Now The Comedy

Gaming platform?...NOT



Rebooting.. One thing Linux never has to do.



And we all know that girlfriends are just like this :) <3...
