Opera for me uses now 60 megs.

If you've already got Opera 9, update to Opera 9.01 as that fixes a lot of nigglets. (Including the thing Ankh mentioned about SDA)

RPG working on finishing AMSP1 is something I hoped for in a long while! I played the unfinished version and really liked it.

rpg, why not make the exit loop to could.bsp? I noticed that could loads rpgsp1 on exit. I like your maps enough to play three of them in a row :-) 

Depends how many sites you have open. Seems about the same as FF if you don't have any windows open, but I don't notice it lagging when I have lots. Right now I have 3 func windows open, kotaku.com (full of plugins and shitty webcode) and shacknews open and it's using 41mb, though it is slowly climbing. If I minimise it, the memory usage drops near instantaneously to 15mb.

I just opened another bunch of pages and memory usage is still at 41mb. I think it will climb slowly for a little while though. It certainly uses a bit more than 40mb sometimes.

When I brought the kotaku window into focus, it used another 7mb of ram, and putting it out of focus hasn't changed that, so I guess it depends on what windows you have open and also what windows you have recently accessed.

To be honest, I haven't noticed FF using loads of memory either, though I don't really use FF for anything other than keeping smut out of my opera cache :)

p.s. I have no FF plugins installed, so maybe that's why it seems ok. 

I like Opera's delete private data function, but it sucks that it deletes Everything.
If you could tell it to only delete changes made after a certain time, that would be awesome.
You could clear out your traces of visiting scat-trannies.com on friday but still keep all your daily websites' cookies and adresses typed in, etc... 

that's why I use firefox for visiting scat-trannies.com.

There is a "delete new cookies when exiting opera" option, but I'd rather not have to exit opera. Delete changes made after a certain time is a great idea.

I think Firefox has a slightly better delete private data function, but I just clear it all because I only use ff for dodgy sites anyway. 

Firefox:s user interface has some things better: I like how it changes to the tab on the right (or left if that doesn't exist) when I close a tab. While opera switches to the last active tab, which is kinda unpredictable?!. I guess it's preference.
Also I used flashblock for firefox. 

Nice work, Spirit. You're a great craftsman.
Especially the glowing one in the fire!

I want one in chocolate! 

allows you to choose tab behavior. You can have it select tabs like ff now I think.

You can also disable flash by pressing f12 and turning it off with the menu that appears (along with java, js and some other stuff if you want). 

That the wallpaper of yours I've been using at work for the last few months is not just a well made graphic as I'd thought, but is in fact a picture of one of the actual metal runes you made in a real fire pit, is pretty cool shit!

I'm impressed!

we know that really, you're still there! muhahaha 

my arm is fucked and i don't want to chat. need vertical mouse :( 

distrans: No comment.

Tron: You're a weanie. :( I did my part!

Spirit: Those are really cool indeed. I'd like to get one, but all I would do with it is let it sit on a shelf and people would ask me "what's that" and all I could say would be "that's a Quake rune." dork++

neg!ke: Don't tempt me.

golden_boy: Cool idea, but I actually already have plans for the ending of that map. :) Maybe for RPGSP2... 

You told me to release it, it's released...I just don't want to release it properly because of the aforementioned gameplay suckage. 

a Quake symbol hood ornament?

or "bonnet medallion" as you brits probably call it. 

I just ordered the domain.

It may be an 'iffy' name, but hopefully it'll grow on ya. I was going to get 'quaked' .ORG or .NET but they're all taken already.

Metl, when all is setup should I submit a news thread detailing the hosting? 

yeah, i'd say that's a worthwhile news item to get out there. 

bonnet medallion

bonnet . . The word conjures an image of a wee girl skipping through the tulips, it's hard to imagine someone saying, "I've got a 420 kicking in 8 cylinders under the bonnet", but I guess it happens. 

...estate car, windscreen, handbrake, tyre, hubcap, bumper...? 

I'm guessing,windscreen is what refer to the windshield, handbrake is what we call emergancy brake on this side of the, er, pond? Tyre is tire. English spelling looks Blakian but that makes it cool. Hubcap and bumper are the same here.

While on the subject of mores. I saw an article in the Wall Street Journal yesterday and on Chavs their taste for quaffing champagne. The English have always been known for their manly drinks. Churchhill was a legend for the quantity of Scotch he could put away and still run the country. Why are these chavs adopting the taste of clueless American rappers who like overly sweet girly drinks? 

Spirit, I must have one.

Must. 

It is quite magnificent. 

If your locks get broken and the icon goes missing, you only have yourself to blame. Lunaran sounds like he really, really wants one. 

As I wrote at Quaddicted:
2006-08-11 D'oh! I wrote "Please do NOT tell anyone" below but meant "Please do NOT tell EVERYone" as in not posting it as news anywhere. :)
That "write how much you would like to spend" is just for me so I know what to expect. Higher biddings do not equal better runes or something just as lower bids don't offend me or get lower priority. Quite many Quakers aren't actually rich. I know :)
And DO MAIL me if you want a rune, without a mail in my inbox I would probably forget you...

2006-08-09 I've got quite a few requests for making more of those runes so I thought about it. I probably could get 10-20 slighty smaller and less thick ones done. So everyone who wants a rune please send me a mail and don't forget to write how much you would like to spend (shipping is from Germany, 8 Euros for airmail to anywhere). Any money I "earn" goes straight to the hosting bill. Please do NOT tell anyone so there aren't too many requests by people outside "the community"!

So mail me, if you want one. 

So I've always wondered why they call it emergency brake. Do you really use it in emergencies? Handbrake seems better because you use your hand to operate it, and I only use when the car is parked. 

hl2 textures, where them bitches at?
