Weather rantings and Unreal Tournament
They talk about global warming, but this winter, there has been exceptionally much snow here down in southern Sweden. Normally, what we get is a week or two with 1-5 cm of snow per year. This year, there has been snow somewhere since the beginning of January. Ok, some weeks at a time, the snow has only been in small piles beside the road, but it has been there. Right now, it’s snowing quite much outside, and adding to the layer that has been coming since the middle of the week. It’s just slightly below 10 cm deep… I wouldn’t call this global warming…
The thing is that the snow has been there since I went skiing the first time in January, just making fun of the fact that there’s no slopes to go skiing in down here. :( I like snow, I really do, but when I can’t do anything with it (I.E. go skiing), I just get fed up… I think I should move to an area with more slopes. ;)
My inside activities the last few days have been dominated by Unreal Tournament (the original from 1999). I’m only playing against bots, but the InstaGib mutator (everyone gets supercharged shocking guns (and all other weapons are removed) which kills everyone with one direct hit) makes it quite fun :) Just a bit suckish that I can’t get it to run in Linux… Seems like the installer can’t patch some windows specific game files… :( Playing it on my mother’s laptop isn’t a problem, though. ;)
Oh, And I also got fed up with the KDE OS X thing, so my KDE is back to normal, except the wallpaper and the desktop fonts :P
