Samurai Panda

Quite some time ago, I ran across a blog called SamuraiPanda.com1. I really liked the title but had to admit I was dis­ap­pointed to not find any images of pan­das in samu­rai armor on the site. So I ended up sketch­ing one, scan­ning it and promptly for­got about all about it. Then tonight while search­ing my com­puter for a dif­fer­ent image; I ran across that one and decided to go ahead and post it for your pleasure.

1 No, I do not recall how I ran across it.

Pukka’s Link of the Week

Posted by | Filed under Links

Pukka only sent me one link this week and like usu­ally, it’s another flash game one can play to waste away their day.

Red 5: Be Luke Sky­walker and use the Force, as you fly an X-Wing down the trench on the Death Star. Destroy the incom­ing TIE fight­ers and wait for your change to blow-up the Death Star using your pho­ton torpedos.

Changing Webhosts

Posted by | Filed under Site News

I’m going to be mov­ing the CoffeeBear.net from Dig­i­tal Sense Host­ing to Web Key Design. I’m mak­ing this move for 2 rea­sons and nei­ther of them is any real fault of Dig­i­tal Sense.
Rea­son #1: I can get pretty much the same pack­age from Web Key Design as I can from Dig­i­tal Sense Host­ing, but for a cou­ple bucks cheaper over the year.
Rea­son #2: Web Key Design is being run by a friend of mine.

This change over will be hap­pen­ing some­time in the next few days and may cause some tem­po­rary inter­rupt in our daily waste of your time. We apol­o­gize for any extra work that you may have to do as a result of this inter­rup­tion and appre­ci­ate your patience.

Update [05 June 2005, 12:46 (-06:00 GMT)]: The move to the new web­host has been com­pleted and every­thing (except for the SSGSPDS pages) appears to be work­ing cor­rectly. I’m work­ing on get­ting that last bit setup cor­rectly on the new host, but it might be a cou­ple of days yet before it’s func­tional. If you do encounter any prob­lems with CoffeeBear.net; let me know. Thanks!

Update [07 June 2005, 22:19 (-06:00 GMT)]: the SSGSPDS pages are now up and run­ning again. All praise WKD for their assis­tance in this matter! :)

A Gamer’s Manifesto

Posted by | Filed under Links

Instant-Failure Stealth Lev­els. Ack. This brings back hor­ri­ble mem­o­ries of a Gold­en­eye level where if you tripped an alarm, an infi­nite num­ber of bad guys poured forth. We knew a man who failed that level 37 times, then got the Infi­nite Health cheat for it and came back. He inten­tion­ally tripped the alarm, the guards rushed out. Laugh­ing mani­a­cally, he pro­ceeded to shoot those fuck­ers for four hours, killing 1,183 of them — 682 with groin shots — before his thumbs cramped up. Your game should not cre­ate this kind of bitterness.

Amen to that!
