I am currently working on physical relocation of my home server from one room into another, so there will be a short downtime. I’ll update this node as soon as everything will get back.
Update (14:05): Ok, most of the work has finished. gucho has been moved to the living room and it’s CD-ROM has been changed to DVD-ROM. I will be configuring DVD playback and sound now, but it should not cause any interruptions in the connectivity.
Yet another interesting site about photography – PhotoZone.de. Despite the .de domain it’s mostly in English. There are a lot of articles about usual subjects – equipment, techniques, digital, etc. There is also a forum for those who’d like to stay and ask questions. Most stuff is basic, but it’s rather useful anyway.
If you don’t know where to start, go to Techniques section and see how easy it is to calculate “The Golden Mean”. There is a bit more to it than just sticking your finger in the middle of the frame. :)
I’ll regularly update this post with newest copies of config files for Quake III OSP from members of my clan – BOFH.
I’ve ran a poll some time ago at Gamers.CY which showed that are people who have troubles configuring Quake III for network play. That poll pushed me into writing down these few simple steps that will hopefully increase the number of peole enjoying the deathmatch fun.

I’ve just seen “Runaway Jury” in the movies. This is a very nice film with a lot of familiar faces, good acting, interesting plot, and a not bad soundtrack.
This is film is one of the million that are based on or related to some huge case in court. This time it has to do with US gun industry and victims of gun shooting. Chances are as usual that gun industry will win, due to an enourmous amount of money they can spend on their lawyers and information acquisition teams. Good guys are usually week. No exceptions here. It’s just that this time there are two independent groups of good guys, one of them being the lawyer (Dustin Hoffman) and the other – some afferists (John Cusack, Rachel Weisz) who wanted to get back to another lawyer (Gene Hackman) for winning another shoot-them-up case in the past. The whole setup earned them also 15 million bucks, so they were double interested.
There are few interesting points raised in this movie about gun control (obviously), law, justice, money, social engineering, etc. Overall, a film is interesting, entertaining, and rather active with an unavoidable happy end, as usual. :)
