So...

School + girlfriend + laziness = no 1emu for me for a loooong time   When school started up, my life got all filled with stuff do do, which I was not at all prepared for. Thus, interwebs stuff took a back seat to my new found real life. Now, what with exam week fast approaching, I still won't have much time for 1emu, but I'll try to pop in now and then. Oh, and RIP IRC... I knew it was dying for a long time now... but still... it's like losing muh bestest frind   Anyway, I've just recently been

Lua

So I've taken it upon myself to learn Lua, a "lightweight yet powerful" programming language. Thought it would be a good idea because: 1. It looked easy 2. It has been ported to the PSP and the DS 3. It can be used in conjunction with C++, of which I know a (very, very) little bit 4. ???????? So yeah. Reading some tutorials for Lua on the PSP. Hopefully I'll be churning out my own games 'n' apps within a few months. We'll see.

Crash

On the way up to my friend's cabin for our four day weekend I had my first experience of being in a car crash.   We were traveling down the highway at about 60 mph in silence brought on by the gloomy weather. The three of us in the back seat (the suv we were in had two seats in the front, three in back, and a storage area behind the seats) were either asleep or very close to it. Unfortunately, so was the driver. He dozed off, causing the car to drift across the left lane and off the side of the

Camping and a New Phone

Camping On Friday one of my friends called me up and invited me to go to his cabin in northern-ish WI for the weekend. Not knowing how fricking cold it would be, I eagerly accepted. He informed me that we would be leaving at 9:00 AM on Saturday and I should pack for out door conditions. Then my parents went into an overprotective rampage and made be pack a bedroll that was quite possibly 2 feet in diameter, with a sleeping bag, 2 flannel sheets, a pillow, and 2 blankets.   The next day

School's a-comin'...

I have mixed feelings about school starting up again. Mostly good ones, though, which surprises me. Since I pretty much spent the summer being a slug, I'm looking forward to having something to do during the day. Also, my friends were doing a whole lot of traveling, so I didn't see them very often. It'll be cool to see some of them again, after briefly chatting at class registration. Oh man... registration... a pain in a few ways.   First, a few days (read: two) before registration, I received

Well, damn

After going through 2 crappy soldering irons, I attempted to install a PSP-Devolution modchip into my PSP in order to revive it. Guess what. I flocked it up. Royally. Without realizing it, I melted a few parts on the PSP's mobo. So yeah. WHO WANTS TO BUY SOME PSP PARTS?   Look at my content blocks over yonder ->

My school is flocked up

So much crazy stuff has happened in the past week at my school. Normally we're pretty normal, just your run-of-the-mill public High School, but not this week...   The first thing that happened was a kid got arrested for sexual harassment. Apparently he posted some nasty things on MySpace, and a few people printed his comments out and showed them to our resident police officer (we have a police officer at our school instead of a security guard... he has guns). I know this kid pretty well, so I wo

Happiness and desparation

My R4DS came in the mail today, which is amazing since I ordered it yesterday. Only problem is, I'm a bit worried because of this: This troubles me because my R4 is gray. I guess I'm gonna have to wait till my microSD card gets here to find out if I've been ripped off... dear god I hope not! If it does work, then Gamecop and I have a secret evil plan for writing a review.   Aaaaaand now, a list of things Mooney has for sale: - PC (AMD Athlon 64 3200+, ATI Radeon 9800 PRO, 1GB RAM, 160GB har

Driving

About a week ago I took a test at Driver's Ed to get my permit. A few days ago I went to get my permit. And today... I drove.   At first I was just driving around in an empty parking lot, doing things like going forward, reverse, speeding up, braking, turning, and parking. Then I went into a residential area, where only one person passed me, and I didn't cause any collisions. I did not hit any other cars, I did not hit any pedestrians, I did not cause any accidents, and I only went up on the cur

Girl troubles

Girls are the most tricksy and mysterious beings on the planet. I swaer, if I could reproduce asexually, I would never have to deal with another devious female...   So there's this girl I like. She recently hooked up with another guy. He's a year older than we are. She's in my math class. We usually are in the same group when doing math exercises. She smiles at me a lot, and laughs at all of my jokes. Today, while working in a group on a math worksheet, she reached over to my paper and started w

Cold

It is quite cold.   It is so cold that I can not be outside for 30 minutes without my face totally freezing. And tomorrow is the SuperBowl! Thank god it's not going to be in Green Bay, or they'd be playing with an ice cube instead of a football, and Prince would have to wear a parka!   Damn all of you who live in warm climates!

Snowboarding and Christmas

This past Sunday I attempted snowboarding for the first time in my life. Suffice to say I no longer have knees. Well, they are in bad shape. My left knee is completely covered in multi-colored bruises, and my right knee is swelling up to the size of a ping pong ball. I blame the snow at the resort for this. There was no real snow AT ALL. Only mad made snow, which was really just small chunks of ice. Every time I fell, I either hit solid ice or deep, wet ice. And, since this was my first day sno

User Bar Madness and one last plea

FIRST: PLEASE PLEASE, WON'T SOMEONE GET IN THE HOLIDAY SPIRIT AND BUY MY PC?!? I'm getting desperate here... there are things I need to buy, but with my current shortness on cash I cannot afford them. So please, think about buying my PC... or my NDS homebrew set up, or my GBA flashcart... You'll make so many people happy. Oh yeah and user bars ftw

Staff

Yesterday I was promoted to a staff news poster. Yay! Happiness and sunshine all around. However, today was a snow day... but I was sick. Life's a biatch.

Firefox 2

So I just dl'd Firefox 2 Beta 2, and I must say: I LOVE IT! It improves on many of Firefox 1.5's great features, like plug-ins and extensions, but it also gained some new features. It now feels a lot like Opera; Little [x] 's on the tabs, sleeker design... and other stuff. Another cool thing is a built in spell checker! If you misspell something, it underlines it in red. Then you right click the word, and it gives you spelling suggestions! Now none of you n00bz (<- it didn't underline that?!

Last Blog Before School

Damn... I guess I knew I'd have to go back someday. I really wished summer would never end (don't we all? ). So now here I am spending my last day of freedom at my computer. Wheeee! I guess I kind of am looking forward to school a bit, tho. Now at least I'll have something to DO for half the day. Also, my brain is probably mush after my summer (a.k.a. game fest) so I need to get it back into shape. But until then, I'll still enjoy 1emu and all its sauciness! Peace! - Mooney

I Hate The Internets

They are evil. All of them. Especially mine, AT&T Yahoo! DSL. It sucks monkey gonads. After AT&T bought SBC, my internet connection randomly dropped, tech support was as helpful as a cage of dead squirrels ("Duuuhh... reboot?"), Firefox started glitchen' out , and I'm trying to convince my parents to get Road Runner Cable internet. I am THIS close { } to convincing them. Wish me luck with that... Anyway, on a lighter side, I have decided to build my own PC. I'll give you a peek at some

DSpot 1st Birthday

Some of you may know, and some may not, of this nice little forum called DSpot. DSpot is a forum for talking about all things Nintendo from the Wii to the DS. It's still a small forum with just over 100 members, and lately there's been a bit of a posting draught. Also, today marks 1 year sice Twilightlink and Kobayashi opened up DSpot to the public. Hopefully DSpot will be able to last another year and gain another 100 members, which is why I come to you: PLEASE VISIT US!!! DSpot is a really c
