that's never happened to me before.

And I guess it all depends on how experienced you are. I've always been a programmer and have been blissfully ignorant of hardware issues, combine that with the fact that I'm still a new linux user? I don't want to configure every mundane detail. I just want the benefits of GNU/Linux in an easy to install and mantain manner.

I think you have a flawed view of what "science" is. As I stated previously, science is simply fact building, triangulating logic. It doesn't necessarily just explain things that are not seen, it is a standardized approach to proving things we hold to be true. My analogy would be to think of it like a proof in geometry. Everything that is prooven in science is held in place by a buttress of facts and research. That's what science is all about.

Examples in religion aren't fact. The Bible is meant as allagory anyway, not to be given as true examples. They are stories to attempt to instill "proper" values that Christians wish to highlight in their followers. Simply stated, there will be no way to prove or disprove anything about Religion, it is not within our grasp as humans. This is why Religion and Science simply do not exist on the same plane. Science only deals with things that can and cannot be proven according to other truthes that were found in a similar process.

However, in my opinion, some people get upset when humans advance to the point where they can answer some of the "unkowns" that previously only Religion could answer.

Come on, if you want to boast about it show me something.


well, for starters, the flood. how do you think the grand canyon was created? seriously, do you really think that that pittifull little creek known as the Colorado river carved out the Grand Canyon? gimme a break!! and besides, the fossil record clearly shows evidence of a massive flood. those "billions of dead things burried in rock layers laid down by water all over the earth" didn't get there by themselves.

the existence of dinosaurs, though completely screwed over by macro-evolutionists, was first mentioned in the Bible.

And yes there is tons of evidence pointing to the existence of the Gardden of Eden.

The records of egypt show evidence of the plagues and the exodus of the hebrews.



secondly, Bookworm isn't boasting, he's pointing somthing out. get it through your head we're not boasting about anything, we're simply showing you the evidence you request and then defending ourselves when you ignore it and say we're f***ed in the head!!

The Jews hated the Christians!! Especially the Pharisies and leaders and teachers of the law! The Christians were preaching against everything that the leaders had been pulling over the eyes of their followers for centuries!!

Also there are non-Biblical and non-jewish historical accounts of Jesus existence and the begining of Christianity.

The documents were nto altered durring anyone's reign. you keep asking for proof, yet you give us nothing to back up your own claims. show me passages that can be completely diproved! show me hard evidence that the documents were altered!

your argument is so full of holes, if i didn't know better i'd think it was a sieve or a piece of swiss cheese! all your post is based on is hypothesis, rumors, a dislike for the Truth we're bringing to the table and a competetive nature that won't let you admit that you might possibly be wrong! you have no evidence!

i'm leaving now before i get pissed off and say something i'll regret.

~Fear~


PS. Gavin, the Bible is not meant as an allegory. it is an historically accurate doccument containing Spiritual truths and a blueprint for life, both physical and spiritual. Unless you wrote the Bible, which i assure you, you did not, you cannot say how it was meant to be taken as you do not know the mind of the Almighty God.


also, as a general statement, all people are hypocrits and many of the so called "Christian" establishments which are so hypocritical are neither Christian, nor have any affiliation with true Christian organizations.



No, you're leaving because you realize you have absolutely nothing to back up any of your statements and that you're almost entirely full of shit . Oh really, I didn't write the Bible? Thanks for pointing that out, I was totally unaware that a document compiled hundreds and hundred of years before my conception was not authored by my humble self. No seriously, thanks for the grand fucking insights.

Going along the same logical lines you laid out in which I cannot decide the intention of the multiple authors of the bible, you too are unable to give motive for their writings.

And I would be most pleased if you could iterate any of this "evidence" you're talking about and back it up with something.

Weird, I've never before heard such an explination for the existance of the Grand Canyon. Probably some sort of left-wing Jewish conspiracy to deny the existance of the one true Lord.

I have never denied the existance of a historical figure now known as Jesus Christ. So what if he existed. That speaks nothing to claims of his relationship with a higher heavenly figure. IIRC, Islam acknowledges the existance of Jesus Christ, they just don't think he was sent from heaven... I mean, the jews acknowledged a figure named Jesus Christ existed, didn't they?

Whoopdie-fucking-doo. What a huge major victory in this argument you have one, "but wait, there is actually someone else who said that some events highlighted in the bible might have actually taken place!" Shouldn't we be surprised if these accounts aren't extensively talked about in every major historical record. And what exactly do they say specifically. Do they have accounts of burning bushes, do they talk about men walking on water with credible reports? Or do they just say, "there was a mass migration of peoples around the time of [X] ruler."



P.S. I'm Jesus fucking Christ.

I'm starting up this thread again.

Battle Shit:

$6101	;char1 status byte

$6141 ;char2 status byte
$6181 ;char3 status byte

//used during battle to determine the sprite set to use for each character
// #$00 - dead
// #18 - kneeling/status ailment set
$6AD6	;char1 sprite position

$6ADA ;char2 sprite position
$6ADE ;char3 sprite position
$6AE2 ;char4 sprite position


//this draws the 4 windows that encapsule the 4 character's battle stats
$F2FE:A9 19     LDA #$19	;stat battle x position for all 4 stat windows

$F300:A2 15 LDX #$15
$F302:20 C6 F3 JSR $F3C6 ;draw window

$F30F:A2 03 LDX #$03
$F311:20 C6 F3 JSR $F3C6 ;draw window


Not Battle Shit:

A few more battle-related values.

Also as a note: the values I posted about that determine which battle sprite should be displayed for each character, (i.e. $6AD6 for char1) are not entirely correct. They work for all non-dead sprites. Non-dead sprites are chosen in a different manner from a different routine I have not yet located, probably because non-dead sprites are 16x48 (vertical) and dead sprites are horizontal (assuming, use at your own risk).


6AD0 - count-down for how long to display battle windows
0x2Da32 - how long to pause when displaying battle text windows,
put into $6BAC SRAM and stored into $6AD0 for decrementing

610A - current/calculated health for character 1

FreeDOS and neotransotaku: For some reason I suspect you are the same person. You're smart, I respect that

Zem: I don't know you at all in any way, but judging on your postings, you are probably also very good looking and might even have a large penis.

Ziff: fuck, you're 18? your brain-smarts make me feel like I'm 12.

DahrkDaiz: bro needs to get his women back in line. learn to use the backhand for god's sake.

Yoronosuku: when the conversation turns sexual and you're in the channel, I feel very uncomfortable. Like the FBI is right over my should.

tunafishsandwhich / xk: I challenge you to a duel.

Max: ???

mcw: rock on, buddy

BMF: you are wise, but someday you will falter.. that is when I will strike.

Arwon: another Ziff-esque member who makes me feel inadequate.

Everyone else: you are fat and lazy, get a fucking job and stop posting useless bullshit. I don't really respect most of you because you aren't romhackers or programmers and you are unable to post anything that doesn't end in "LolzzOMFGBBQ!!~". It's okay though, we can't all be as good as me

Did you mean to say that you haven't seen the cartoons and therefor cannot compare them to the movie? If so: just konw that while the movie itself might have been decent enough on it's own, the movie as a developement in the Aeon Flux series was just a terrible step backward. Taking a really provacative, visually and otherwise, groundbreaking cartoon and urning it into just another run of the mill hollywood special effects action crapfest is disgraceful.

Posted on 12-16-05 02:55 PM, in What do you think about this "war on Xmas"? Link
I would like to conduct a simple experiment to test this so-called "war on xmas". It is simply yet another right-wing subversion to mobilize their base, because for some reason those types are crazy about this bullshit.

1) How many of you have ever talked to a person who has ever been upset or contested your salutation of "Merry Christmas"?

I am very certain that most of you will be able to answer that in the negative (and if I'm wrong.. fuckit). Real, rational Americans don't bother with this crap. I do not know of anyone who has ever offered any objection to be greetings. Personally, I wouldn't care if someone wished me a happy fucking Kawanza, which is what I've taken to wishing people lately The sentiment is the same, and any anal, semantically obsessive person who gets upset with how I am wishing them never-ending cheer and the blessings of all of mankind, doesn't deserve to be greeted as such in the first place.

Interesting fact:
George W. Bush's own Presidential seasonal celebreation cards actually say "Happy Holidays".

So is George W. Bush, vehicle of the conservative right of this country for the past 5 years, a left-wing liberal aetheist who wishes to abolish religion completely from this country?

umm... No. I'm pretty sure he just wante to tell people to enjoy themselves during break.

right. I caught your meaning, which is why i posted an agry response, to imply that the seething anger is still there... just bubbling quietly beneath the surface.

Posted on 12-17-05 11:38 PM, in Collecting Hacks, Utilities, Documents Link
As some of you might know, Romhacking.net is set to open pretty soon and so far there is a great deal already in the database, however a lot of the items pertain to translation hacking only. In it's current form the website might not offer as much as some might hope for non-translation hackers such as ourselves.

To remedy this I'd appreciate you guys adding things that you would like to see submitted to the site by posting in this thread, sending an email my way (gavin.b.lynch@gmail.com), or submitting the item to romhacking.net

Unfortunatly the Hacks section will not be up in time for the launch of the site, so please refrain from attempting to submit IPS patches to romhacking.net for just now. You can still post the hacks here or send them to me at the above mentioned email address and I will include them when I populate the Hacks section.

In addition, I'm curious as to what you all would like to see in the hacks section feature-wise. Depending on the practicality, I'll definetly consider suggestions.

So come on, don't be shy, post anything at all that you think might want to be included... you're favorite hacks, favorite utilities, favorite documents that helped you out the most. So let's get cranking, eh?

(also if you would like, register and post any comments in the romhacking.net hacking section thread
