MacBook Pro not powerful enough

with 3 comments

To play The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion that is. Despite the fact that its got a X1600 Mobility, framerates are still horrible when trying to play the game. That said, High Dynamic Range lighting in the game is gorgeous. I just couldn’t deal with the lagging and stuttering anymore. Too damn annoying.

Which is why I removed Winblows XP from my Mac. No time to play games anyway, which is what all XP is good for.

Oh, and do check out the new music on my radio. Awesomely eardrippingly gorgeous music.

B for Betrayal

Remember remember, the 5th of November,
the words of Alan Moore twisted forever…

It is obvious that I am not impressed with the movie’s interpretation of Alan Moore’s graphic novel. The scriptwriters have tried to recast the story into one of “vengeful psycho versus Christian fundamentalists”, and in doing so completely perverted the central idea of the story. Ideas may be bulletproof, but they sure can’t withstand stupidity and crappy scriptwriting.

The most preposterous part of the script was when the script cast Evey’s boss, Gordon, as gay, and then having him secretly possess a Koran, which was banned as Christianity had become the official state religion. His reason was that “he finds the pictures beautiful”.

Now, I don’t know if I’m reading this correctly, but I got the distinct feeling that whoever wrote the script wanted to portray the white Christians as the big bad guys, while everyone else, including gays, people of colour, and Muslims as the poor downtrodden victims. Give me a break.

Left-wing multiculturalists should take a good hard look at what Muslim countries are doing to homosexuals and then try to explain to the LGBT community where their loyalties truly lie. These left-wing morons make all that sound and fury about how Christian conservatives are not allowing them to get married, when in Islamic societies, the mere fact that one is gay can mean the loss of one’s life. A sense of perspective please?

I’ve always maintained that if one were homosexual, one cannot be left-wing, simply because lefties are all too ready to subjugate individual rights to the “greater good”, whatever the hell that means. The problem with the “greater good” is that it is defined by the majority, and what happens when the majority are homophobes? It’s about time LGBTs see the value and virtues of libertarianism.

Bryan Caplan, Associate Professor of Economics at George Mason University, who is also an atheist and an anarchist, is unhappy that they cut the best scene from the movie.

Justice and Anarchy

I have to agree.
