Meanwhile IRL

Meanwhile in real life, I'm busy building a website for a school project.

Randomness factor: 10%
Geekness factor: IT'S OVER 9000%!!!

Also,

Random message (with a meaning this time)

Got nothing to say atm.
SOPA seems to have been stopped, but now they're launching other acts etc. etc.
I'm going to keep the banner for a while.

Things are going well atm, I'm working on my project now. I have all my study points and well, I'm quite satisfied.
Tha doesn't mean that I don't work, though.
That's one of the reasons I don't post here often anymore.
Well, whatever.
I WILL post sometimes.
Reminds me, I still need to do that MC poster once.

Punchline will be:

"MINECRAFT | Squary!"

See you later =)

What a beautiful Milky Way, and oh, stop SOPA

I'm at school, it is Friday, the weather is horrible, and I find a little moment for myself now.
As I'm thinking what to write about, SOPA pops into my head.

SOPA, you say?

Yes, SOPA. Stop Online Piracy Act.
Another random initiative to ruin the internet.
There have been some tweets and messages about this subject:

^FAKEGRIMLOCK about SOPA

^ The Yogscast, a few people from Australia who make gaming videos, about SOPA.

^ Adam Savage from Mythbusters linking to a youtube video and randomly mentioning SOPA.

^ A Yoyogames Forums moderator about SOPA

Stop American Censorship, an initiative by:

• EFF
• Free Software Foundation
• Public Knowledge
• Demand Progress
• Fight For The Future
• Participatory Politics Foundation
• Creative Commons (Distributor of custom open licenses)
• Mozilla (Creators of the Firefox webbrowser, the Thunderbird e-mail client and more)
• WikiMedia Foundation
• Free Press
• Move On
• Don't Censor The Net!

So, what's the fuss about?

It's about an initiative to 'stop all piracy', at the cost of censoring most parts of the internet.

What will we lose?

• Youtube
• Uncesored Web Searching (Google, Altavista)
• Blogs (Blogger, Wordpress)
• Hosting sites (Imageshack, Mediafire, Google Docs)
• Forums
• Game reviews
• Torrent Websites (The actual goal of SOPA)
• A lot, lot more

SO STOP SOPA!

Random message

It's a random message from me. Contents of value: none at all.

=P

I'm busy.

Sorry for not writing for so long. Anyway, as MS access SP2 is downloading I find a little moment for myself on which I can write this.

Why MS access?

That's a long story.

It began with a very random fact:
I passed my exams.

More later.

Exams...

My exams have started now!
Today was Dutch, and it went pretty well ;)
Let's hope it'll stay that way.
My other exams are English, Maths, Physics, Chemics, Philosophy
I'll make a post when the results are in.

School is over

Yay! School is over for me, only the exams are left!

GameMaker

Once opun a time a very random thing happens to somebody.
Random things happen to somebody quite more often than that, but its a funny phrase, so I still put it there anyway.
A random thing which has happened to me, is this:

GameMaker came into my life, connected to YoYoGames.
(- How is that random?
 - It isn't.
 - But you said....
 - Wait and see. Or rather wait and read.)
I made a lot of terrific games but I have only oploaded three so far.

Now for the random bit:
GameMaker came into my life once more, not at all connected to YoYoGames.
What is was connected to?
1) The chance that Informatics is taught as a subject on a school is not THAT big.
2) The chance that GameMaker is treated as a project within the Informatics course is not big either.
But let it be clear that those two things actually happened to me.
Random?
Yes, I do think so.

So, what we must do:
We must develop a game that promotes our school, particularly focused on that our "college" (2ndary school) is quite okay with computers.
First thing to do:
Download a complete set of pokémon images (sprites) that can be used in our game.

That's how far we got until now.
And it's still getting more and more random.
