SP Happenings #194 - 10 Years of Sorcerer's Place!

Posted Wed, 10th Jun '09 at 12:44am by Taluntain (Tal's Blog)

If there's anything that's bound to make you feel old, it's round anniversaries. How does 10 years sound? Oh, it'll do...

As far as online communities go, we're officially old now, but old in a good sense. Few gaming communities manage to survive for 10 years and actually still show any signs of life and yet we're doing just fine, thank you. There's no denying it, things have slowed down considerably in the last few years, but much to my delight, people are still finding Sorcerer's...

Eighth Dimension: #66 Colours

Posted Tue, 19th Jan '10 at 6:44pm by 8people (8 Tales)

Had a sad little realisation the other night, I've noticed that colours don't seem so bright anymore. I remember my chlidhood spending hours in gardens and looking at everything wide-eyed, taking in every mark and detail I could see. I admired every flower, turned over every rock and ran across every lawn, everything was brightly coloured, fresh and new.

So what changed? I used to write poetry and stories for hours at a time with crisp description and sheer volumes of text with colloquial...

Does that sound medieval to you?

Long story short, I've taken a break from DAO to enjoy some Witcher goodness and although the game is as much fun as it was the first time, I can't help thinking that it shouldn't have been labelled as a CRPG. In all fairness it's more of an adventure game (a great adventure game with hack and slash fun, dialogues and stuff) but it doesn't feature much in the way of choices. There are choices regarding turning points in the story but dialogues are just about going through all the options, sit back...

USB DSO: The Populated PCB

Posted Sat, 31st Mar '12 at 6:11am by Blackthorne TA

So who wants to see the PCB populated with parts?

Well first, how about a picture of the workstation I used for soldering? I did it all by hand, and since much of the soldering is on a submillimeter scale, I used the magnifying lamp the whole time.

For the vias (connection from one side of the board to the other) I used a very thin wire (wire wrap wire) through the...

The meaning of life: TO LEARN??

What's the meaning of life, the purpose of our existence? I don't dare claim to know the answer to that question. But, by applying the scientific method, I can dismiss certain hypotheses as being highly unlikely, and perhaps reach a preliminary conclusion that I find... good enough for now.

First of all, our purpose is not to win the Monopoly game

; money is entirely a man-made institution, and can be changed. The monetary system leads to aberrant consequences such...
