I have nothing interesting to add except that A* (not A+, but almost) is a very common search algorithm. It's often used in computer games so NPC's know where to run! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A*_search_algorithm

I normally don't link to "funny" videos, images or posts but this is simply too good to miss. Link: Modern chat vs. BBS Edit: Changed category.

In AD&D Chaotic Neutral was a kind of lunatic alignment, it even said so in the description. In 3e it's not and the only reason people play CN like that is because they either simply don't "get" CN (political reasons or whatever) or they like the old version better (nothing wrong with that). If...

The account is most certainly computer generated.

As someone who doesn't know anything at all about hockey I do not understand the signifigance, but I do know number 4 is cool for lots of other different reasons. First of all, it's the first composite number excluding the special case 1, and that's really kewl if you're into number theory...

I think what's considered rude varies greatly between individuals, subcultures and countries. I've said some very rude things in the past. Was I aware of it? Nope. I have a disclaimer in my signature now, and it helps a little. :) It might be the same with Phoenix and Waldorf. Were they rude...

Here's one possible explanation, if you use the same warning point system: http://www.ukiyouth.com/vbulletin/archive/index.php/t-254.html

Try the photos here: http://www.webdiosa.com/2005/01/here-it-is-people-sean-penn-mystic.htm I uploaded one of the photos to my own server to save the sites bandwidth, because it's a little slow.

Looks nice. Personally I think it's really cool with tattoos extending from the back to the neck, like this: You asked for the Obligatory Simpsons Quote (tm). :D

DM: Sarge, you are standing in a large rectangular room. In the corner there's a rocket launcher rotating a few inches above the ground. A man with a chainsaw just spotted you. Player: I shoot him with gun number 2!! *dice are rolled here* *a few minutes later* DM: The man with the chainsaw...

VNV have a very good remix of Das Ich's "Destillat" I think you'll enjoy (it doesn't sound like Das Ich!). I found it completely by accident a few weeks ago on the inofficial album State Of Silicon. Lots of interesting remixes on that album. You can disregard that If you haven't heard Punto...

Not electronic music! In fact, I've been listening to Peps Persson. Who? A very weird blues/raggae artist from southern sweden. The music is so weird and happy I decided to spend a few minutes and create and upload a 25 second sample here: http://psionicist.online.fr/ohboy.mp3 (350 kb)

I've read parts of the 7-zip source code and I trust it. And then I'm the kind of person who's paranoid enough to actually read the source code of a program before installing it. (If the source code is not available I install it on my test computer first, with packet sniffers and api monitors...

Less than 1%. Heck, probably less than 0.01% in actual play. For example, last session I only used the PHB, and I only used it to read a paragraph of the Bluff skill. However when I'm creating a new character, then I use everything at my disposal.

That's a neat game. I've finished level 1-16, not tried 17 yet. I am particularly proud of my level 12 record of 8 minutes. (Compared to almost an hour for level 16, oh well).

The kind you can punch to win free prizes? :cool:

I predict the Benevolent Jedi-Dungeon Masters of Supreme Ni-Power most gamers will attire wear their Ceremonial Vestments of Solitude black t-shirt and jeans for the meeting with the High Council this event. ... Dang, one day, be it next year or in a few, I will visit GenCon. Being half a...

I am not very good at minesweeper. In fact, I'm so bad I had to create a program to play for me. Unfortunately, because minesweeper is NP-complete, the program cheats "slightly". :cool: http://psionicist.online.fr/mineplay.exe (6 kb). Should work on English versions of Windows 2000 and XP.
