well i’ve added a new version of my widget to the ftp and to the forge on kapsules, this introduces two bug fixes to the user friendly comic (one of which honestly should have never of come up, but hey we all make mistakes), the other thing is the randomize comic feature that had been requested (it can be selected from the comic menu), it will interval at 15 minutes
I found this today while i was doing my ritual moring go and look at all the news on the internet, and this amazes me, i thought that americans were better than that, i just want to make sure that everyone takes a stand against this kind of closed minded mentality, it’s ridicous that people are thinking this way and i for one won’t stand for it, so don’t try bringing that crap to me
after watching this week’s episode i can say that 24’s 4th season is looking very good contrary to what i said earlier, in the blog, more complete thoughts coming soon
the new kapsules version is officially out, and my widget is back in the forge, you can grab the most up to date build always on this blog, the comics i added were death to the extremist and you damn kid, at the request of the end user, like always don’t be afraid to request stuff, anyways here’s the download link again
As an avid car fan I took advantage of the day off that Dr. King provided for me by driving a few cars. The first car i drove was the scion Tc, this car has a lot of buzz going around it, and at a glance it’s pretty obvious why, it’s a well featured car with a msrp of ~16k, it’s a good bargin for the stuff you get, but unfortuneatly that stuff doesn’t mean jack to me, I want light weight sports cars or at least sports influenced cars, anyways on with the drive. First i must mention something that since this was a new car 
the dealer did insist on going with me, so i wasn’t able to do a fully through review. Ok the first thing i didn’t like about the scion is it’s a very short car, i a 6′ 3″ man was unable to sit in the car even with the seat rocked back without oppening the sun roof panel, the next big thing i noticed was everything in the car was made of plastic, most of it seemed to pretty high grade of plastic and some of it seemed really cheap plastic, the interior seemed kinda bland, and i like the fact that had a cover to go over the radio head unit to help keep the interior a nice clean look (although the unit i drove didn’t have any head unit, just a hole). Ok on with the drive, first the engine, a 2.4 with ~160hp, that’s pretty odd for a japanese car maker, but the engine was probably the best thing about the car, it had good torque and power through out most of the power band, the clutch was quite a bit stiffier than i was used to, but that could be the new car-ness of it, the transmission had a long buy solid throw. The huge disappointment was the preposterous brakes they used, i did a few brakes checks (somewhat convertly because of the dealer guy), and i found these sorely disappointing, i would never trust my family or friends to these things, they were very dismal, when i got out of the car at the dealer’s lot i looked at them and saw why, the brakes were single caliper brakes that were drasticly smaller than anything i’d seen on a japanese car, my honda’s stock brakes were 3-4 inches bigger. So the scion a nice car for driving if you don’t look around at the interior while driving or try to stop.
The second car i drove was a BMW M3, this is a car i know alot of you lust after, and so i do i, i only wish i could’ve afforded it, especially now after driving it. This was a car privately for sale, and the owner was a friend of my father’s so i got to take this 
thing for a real flogging, this car was incredible. The first thing i noticed about this car was how clean and simple the car looked, but somehow had the stigma of a sports car about it. The interior was standard bmw with just some minor asethic changes, quality in build and design. The engine was great, i drove a regular 330 after this to get a comparison of the car and the engine, and although the engine doesn’t feel much more powerful at the top end, everywhere before that it’s has alot more torque and power, the car really moved when you wanted it to, the handling was even more impressive than the engine, the car would go exactly where you wanted it when you wanted it there, and turn off the DSC and get a little more aggresive with the throttle and you could go there sideways, it was incredible. So all in all on the M3, you need one, i need one, anybody who loves racing and spirited driving down backroads needs one.
well i implemented a few more comics this time, it’s user friendly (which may not work, because they have a hotlinking detection thing, it’s working for me at the moment, but only time will tell), star cross’d destiny, megatokyo, and i made vg cats and non-sequir (on sundays only) half size (because they were too big), oh and i fixed a bug with applegeeks, anyways here is the download link for the newer fixed version
update: i added a day rewind feature and cleaned up some of the code so it’s more clear and effiecent (although almost no performance impact), i changed some of the background coding so it resizes much faster, i also added some comics to the todo list (this can be checked out if you look at the config file, the commented out options are comics i’m trying to figure out a way to implement)
i’ve put a new version of my comic widget out, this has a memory optimization (approximately 2 meg less usage) and implements a number of new comics, first one i can’t take credit for it’s sinfest, and the credit belongs to pax77kor of neowin.net, the other ones are My Extra Life, Sluggy Freelance, Mac Hall Comics, Sam and Fuzzy, and Real Life. anyways here is the new link, have fun and enjoy, and don’t be shy to request any comics you want here, or tell me of any bugs
Update: fixed a bug with the naming of sinfest, just redownload it and it’ll be fixed
i’m decided to post another one of my hacked exe files this time for winamp, i use winamp version 2.95 so that’s what version you’re going to get with this file, i changed most of the tray icons and the file association icons, anyways without additional wait here it is
