I'm moving there. I feel that Blogger is not keeping up with the times, and that its functionality is very limited.
Updates stopped for this blog. Last post 20 August 2013.

Here's a picture of a dustbin whose plastic covering has melted.
Absolute randomness. Makes life interesting. Especially when you tell someone that there's a Thieves' Guild in school. Too bad all people do is stare at me in a funny way like I'm some sort of a complete retard.
Anyway, I've stopped playing EVE Online. One day after I blogged about how its difficulty is making the game feel like work, it didn't feel like work anymore. It felt normal, natural, and it flows with the game. Great, problem solved. But now I feel that there isn't really much to do in EVE Online. After reading some chat on the rookie channel, I realised that the things players like about EVE Online is exactly what I don't want in an MMORPG. People were saying that they love playing EVE because they can work and play at the same time, mainly because there is a lot of waiting time and maybe being AFK often. People also said that 90% of the game is based on PvP, and I don't want that. I'm fine with PvP, I like having fights once in a while, but I don't want a game that's so heavily dependent on PvP.
Well, I've also started using Opera (its a web browser), simply because Firefox was starting to act up and become screwy with me. Sometimes pop-up windows wouldn't open, and sometimes the addons don't work after I launch Firefox. Firefox also freezes on my computer once in a while, usually when I open a resource heavy website (but that's due to my crappy laptap). I've tried reinstalling Firefox, restarted my computer after that and deleted the folder completely, but not much improvements. The speed and smoothness increased a lot though. Over two years of crap collected in Firefox must have slowed it down substantially. I have to say that Opera isn't a bad browser, definitely (and obviously) better than Internet Explorer. All I'll say is that I'm happy with Opera, and I'll most likely stick with it for some time.
I've also started playing Left 4 Dead (like finally). I got the game a few weeks after it was launched, but I only started playing it last Saturday. Initially it was freaky and disturbing, as I'm not really used to hordes of zombies charging at me, or Smokers suddenly grabbing me from nowhere. It got fun after a while though. Completed the No Mercy campaign. Dual pistols and shotgun FTW.
