There's been a lot of talk of Amstrad CPC's, this week.
It's nice to be retro, and even nicer when you learn new things.
What did I learn, this week?
Ctrl and the little Enter key on the numeric keypad.
I swear to god, I only just found this out.
25+ years of owning an Amstrad CPC, and I only just learned it!
Ctrl + Enter = Run""
How in the name of hell did I never know that?!
FFS!!!

; Birthday Bash
Are you in France on my Birthday?
If you are, you might want to go here.
It's a great big party! Awesome!
Note : Calm down.. The date is purely co-incidental, and I won't be there! I just thought it was an interesting point to mention!
Note 2 : The site is very NSFW, as one of it's photos shows a man torturing a naked disfigured fella, with a variety of evil looking implements, whilst his friend sits beside, watching in horror. The heartless bastard! *cries* bit.ly/x27jja
The importance of calling.
It's late, and your parents haven't heard from you in hours.
It's best to make that Call. socoder.net/?topic=2760
; PHP Discussion
DD and Stealth start a nice lengthy discussion about the good and bad points of PHP.
It's mostly bad points!
I think they preferred Basic. socoder.net/?topic=2758
; Lego Picture!
The only way to see giant Lego Men in the real world is to not see them in the real world at all!
I think someone oughta warn him that one of them's trying to eat his plans! socoder.net/?topic=2762
A nice little remake.
Shoot all the evil bad men before they shoot you! bit.ly/xBoRNL
; R-Type
"No more like Crappy Port CompomiseĶ"

; Awards
The ultimate list of awards, from 2011.
All those other "Best of 2011" award lists have nothing on this one!
Bah, humbug! bit.ly/zJxlOL
; 4th Best GOTY!
Because nobody wants the 1st Best GOTY..
First is usually some shitty FPS game that nobody actually likes, but which always wins the biggest awards, even though it's only actually been out for about 2 days, and makes people sit through fifteen hour tutorials before they get given a weapon.. At which point they can't shoot anyone anyway, because the game's trying not to let them shoot at their friends.
Stupid #1.
#1 suxs!
It's the ones lower down the list that show true potential.
Hurray for Four! bit.ly/zwFQQt
