Stri - 28 Nov 2006 00:12 GMT It's the original Half-life in flash. For the effort that's gone in this is very impressive! Easy to take shots at this, I think it's more brave to highlight it's good points.

Shows you how technology is moving forwards that Half-Life can now be happily emulated in your web browser.
Ladders are still a bitch but apart from that I think it's a damn cool implementation of a Half-Life engine!

Actually, I suppose losing my temper with inanimate articles could be mine (seriously lost it with a curtain rail last night...) so maybe I could let you have muttering for a while. Wait a mintue, this kbeyoard is plang u! Blllllllody thinnnn!!! klsadflkujysdgjhsdfasfdlkjhsdf

I was muttering before you were born laddie. My father muttered, my mother still mutters. My grandfather was in the 21st Staffordshire Muttering Battalion and was written up in dispatches for muttering at a corporal. I come from a long line of mutterers.

It's booked out most of the week, but I believe we have a cancellation for Wednseenednesday morning - would that be ok for you?
(did you see how I ignored your keyboard remarks and then tried to make it look like it was still playing up? I'm clever like that.)

If I recall correctly from an old post there were 33 respondents and the average age was 48. Ooooh - just got that Matrix deja-vu thingy - haven't I posted these words before?
Course the average age in would be higher given that was some time ago, accepting most of those 33 are still around and provided we keep putting off those damn teeny boppers coming here...

Seems like when you're young and need it you can't get it, and when you're old and don't need it you can't avoid it. It's almost always the old boys driving the new super cars.

Hehe, I'm not THAT young - I've got a nice A4 turbo sitting outside (albeit rather wind-blown at the moment, here in Scotland.) Now all I have to do is murder the idiot with the Subaru who has an exhaust pipe the size of a dustbin (trashcan?) Does anybody know what potatoes-up-pipes do to engines? Sorely, sorely tempted.

Does anybody know what potatoes-up-pipes do to engines? > Sorely, sorely tempted. Nice - looked at the A4 but went for the 320D - came down to the seats - I just preferred the BMW's seats for the damn mileage - did 350 miles today (lot of it on bloody A-roads) and completely shagged. I feel a delivered chinky and a few beers coming on - got tomorrow off - may be more than a few. Bugger it 'definitely' more than a few!
Suburu? As long as the exhaust is smaller than his sub-woofer he's just within my tolerance zone. I do understand though so I'll tell you that doing that will just mean the exhaust cannot escape, the engine can't breathe so it just stops working...

Hmmm, so what you're saying here is that I should definitely insert a stick of dynamite in his exhaust pipe, stand well back and wait for the boom. I think I like what you're saying, and I'm going to get a neighbour to do it as I'm awfully busy today with, erm, work and stuff.
Seriously though, I honestly think you could put a pineapple up this pipe, it's that big. I'm going to call the police AGAIN today - they claim he's on their "to-nick" list but it's been over a year now since I first reported him. And please don't think I'm the vindictive type - the noise from this thing is unbelievable.

Actually, I believe it's along the lines of fitting inappropriate parts. I think the exhaust is probably a racing one, and certainly isn't street-legal.

Plus of course noise pollution is an offense under Environmental law - have you spoken with your local Council environmental health department?
Personally, having had 'conversations' with the Police about teenagers that broke next doors window and terrorised the old guy that lives there for around a month earlier this year, I think the dynamite is the answer. It took my brother and I a couple of 'energetic discussions' with the teenagers to resolve next doors problems - the Police did sod all but give him a crime number for his window for the insurers. We haven't seen them since.

Police don't exactly seem to be all that "pro-active" (man I hate that term!)
Actually, I reckon that if I did damage to his exhaust, he'd possibly be afraid to get the police involved because he most likely knows it's illegal.
David Firewater - 07 Dec 2006 12:33 GMT > Actually, I reckon that if I did damage to his exhaust, he'd possibly be > afraid to get the police involved because he most likely knows it's > illegal. Sure, he wouldn't involve the police... He'd just come back in the night and stuff your pet cat up your exhaust pipe.
People... how you doing? Been a while, but I'm back now and just about to reinstall HL2. I might even think about finishing it this time round :p
