The Marcher Fortress Reviewed @ TAW 
Four years overdue. Had been planning to do this right after my review of Bastion of the Underworld back in 2009. Things got in the way and it never got done.

Finally got around to replaying the map and posted up a review just now: http://taw.duke4.net/2013/06/quake/the-marcher-fortress/ 
Privacy / Photos 
I would not upload pictures of my kids anywhere on the internet. You simply do not know where they'll end up. That's why I'm never going to manage my photos online.

And there are plenty of other things which I would prefer not to do in the cloud either. But I'm not an average user, so the generality of these arguments is limited. 
 
There's always file encryption...

But I'm not an average user, so the generality of these arguments is limited.

So is me, concerned bout the possibilities i am.
This should be enough to make evrybody go wild.. 
... 
An example: why on Earth would I want to manage photos locally using some application, when I can instead use Flickr and automatically back them up to Dropbox for good measure?

There is many, everything has always more than one con.

- Availability, if i put them in flick i need Internet, and it isn't always available everywhere, or the servers go down, or many other problems more than to the ones on having them on your computer.

- You depend only on yourself: if they are lost in the cloud, you can't do as much as if they are lost in your computer.

- There is no need to wait for them to uploador download to use them.

- You depend on a single application, if that fails, you have no other way to see them.

- And i can remember at least 5 more reasons, but there is many more. It all depends on what each person values the most.

using the wiki is che4tz0r! 
Wiki? 
I've had them all memorized since I was 9. 
 
The sun was hot for an hour or two in the middle of the day, but
even then in the shadow dwelt a cold breath -- of the winter, or of
death -- of something that humanity felt unfriendly. To Gibbie,
however, bare-legged, bare-footed, almost bare-bodied as he was, sun
or shadow made small difference, except as one of the musical
intervals of life that make the melody of existence.


This is an excerpt from what seems to be ancient Gibbie fanfiction I found while trying to find a download for Gibbie's Q1DM map "Shady."

Whoa ._. 
 
Errrr... What Do We Do Now ? 
Suicide ?

But what is time to such a transcended being as The Incredible Hylke....
