Battlefield 2 - i love it …

After some hours of playing Battlefield 2 (only the demo) this evening i had a thrilling action evening. Its so simple but so beautifull. It has a really old Multiplayer mode, the Conqueror, but you need no more, never.

Running, pointing, sitting down and wait for the flag, drive a car or tank, fly a jet or a helicopter, shoot a enemy and going down (he has shoot you *g*). And now from beginning: Running, pointing, shooting, sitting (a little bit waiting), driviong, flying and over and over shooting.
A simple princip, a big thrilling action … Battlefield two … i love it

toendaCMS SQL near finishing

Over 70% is now integrated into the SQL Abstraction. So we can use it more and more. Only the links, the albums and the documents must be integrate. Session, downloads, products and the all other stuff is finish. With this step, i have created some more new gallery features… (thumbnail list on the gallery viewer is on the way (*g*))

Heiteres auf dem Balkon

Machmal denke ich das es Menschen gibt, die so doof sind, dass es schon wieder lustig ist.
�ber meinem B�ro wohnt so ein junger Italiener mit seinem Vater (oder auch so ein alter Italiener mit seinem Sohn) jedenfalls glaube ich dass er gerne Singvogel w�re, oder Kinderkaraokeveranstalter oder sowas �hnliches.
Dieser junge Spund steht von morgens bis abends auf seinem Balkon, h�lt ein altes wakeliges (Woolworth - ) Mikrofon in der Hand, welches an ein ebenso altes Karaokeger�t angeschlossen ist und h�rt extrem laut billige 90′er Jahre Disco-POP-Dancefloor Musik, die Stimme lauthals ins Mikrofon gerichtet. Das ganze Ergebniss erschallt in die ganze Strasse und jeder kann seinem (t�glichem) Gratis Konzert fr�hnen (oder genervt st�hnen). Mitunter gr��lt er dabei auch alte Frassen aus Kindstagen wie “Ei, ei, ei was seh ich da, ein verliebtes Ehepaar, …” und so weiter. Angeblich soll er �ber 20 Jahre alt sein, aber ich denke dass er bei 10 h�ngengeblieben ist.
Selbst lautes, rummorendes klopfen an seine Haust�r hilft dabei nicht weiter. Die ganze Show ist so laut, das er es wahrscheinlich nicht mal merken w�rde wenn die Polizei oder die Feuerwehr seine Haust�r auftretten w�rde um ihn mitzunehmen und in die Klappse zu stecken.

Never buy at Luxuriousity

Never buy at this company. I cannot believe what this company do. Thy sell open-source and free software products over eBay and their own website with a own name. No link to the developer of the software products, no source code, no link to a free download. Thats a massivly violation against the GNU/GPL license.
The unbelievables thing is that they put screenshots on their site, for example from The Gimp (their call it “Photo Professional”) and you can see the original name of the software (even The Gimp). This is a larger picture of a screenshot (you can see the name of the original product The Gimp in the picture name …).
- Luxuriousity cannot claim they developed the software
- Luxuriousity cannot remove copyrights, not from the splash screen nor from the user interface nor from the source codes
Never buy at this company!

Enlightenment DR17 Installer

I have written a Enlightenment DR17 (known under e17) installer in BASH Script. It loads e17 from the CVS as anonymous and configure, compile and install all packages and files.
It’ a first version in BASH Script to have a easier way to install my dayly e17 update. The next version will be written in C++. And some time later it can get a GUI with EDJE or so.
I know there are some other get-e17-installer scripts on this planet, but i write my own stuff rather then download it. Furthermore i will expand it and rewrite it in C++.
By the way. The toendaCMS SQL integration go on …
