Yay, I scored Batman. :3
I'm happy now.
Heh, this has a point:
Well, we don't have that many smart people from USA on Elftown. Even though there are many people from English speaking countries here, most of them are only here to chat around, while that just isn't possible for stupid people from other countries because they don't know English.
Heh.
03:35:12 [Jeccabee]: there was something I used to say when I was little whenever I had a weggy... "My underwear is crackin me up."
Tomorrow's goals (in no particular order):
+ return CV-submission thingie.
-save pictures on a CD
+go to library and watch La Vita E Bella. ;_;
-Shower and Wash clothes?
-Watch Cirque Du Soleil DVD
+ET-faffing
*edit*
I have the completely wrong mentality to make a CV. If you want to be hired, you need to brag with what you've achieved, but I feel quite awful doing that, it just goes against the me-ness of being modest and disappearing. >_>
I hate this module so much.
[Hedda]:
Spanish sounds like craws and vultures are fighting...
Italian or maybe French sound nicer.
Latvian sounds pretty nice too, but there isn't much competition in the nice-sounding languages in that region. Finnish may have many vowels, but they pronounced in a very military way. Lithuanian sounds angry, Russian as arrogant spitting drunk-ass talking, German seems to be spoken by angry orcs and Polish sounds like German and Russian...
And Swedish... Well, I don't know, but it's a very melodic language and the tune is quite rude.
XD
I think it's safe to say that when you find Metallica singing about your life, your life sucks a little -_- (No, I don't mean Metallica sucks, but they're not.. y'know, happy-go-lucky or stuff... >_>)
Lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, But she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still, yes she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there...
-Metallica: Unforgiven II
I wish I could put "</emo>" here, but I don't think emoness will end anytime soon... >_> Feel free to unwatch my house if you're allergic to emo. I know I am >.<;;;;

I just had a patternogasm. :O So... many... pretties...
I had planned to learn to do my own tiles... But don't think I'll bother now :P
To WoW-friends... Be careful out there...
- Online games targeted by cyber-crooks -
Oxygen3 24h-365d, by Panda Software (http://www.pan
Madrid, May 18 2006 - The new malware dynamic, which has seen a shift
toward financial returns as the principal drive for malware creators, is
increasingly targeting online games. Specifically, cyber-crooks are now
after the login details for installing and accessing online games.
Similarly, these criminals are trying to rob players of the 'virtual
assets' obtained in the games, such as virtual money that can be used in
the game to buy weapons, powers, etc. Given the effort required by
players to obtain these items, there are many people prepared to pay for
them as an easy way of reaching higher levels and increasing their
reputation. In this way, the virtual economy of the game translates
into real profits for the cyber-crook.
With the increasing number of games available online, there is a
corresponding increase in the options for those willing to exploit this
lucrative by-product of online games. There is now the risk that a whole
new business model could be operated by cyber-mafias, stealing virtual
assets, of apparently no real value, and selling them for real money to
the highest bidder.
The malware that most frequently affects games are Trojans. The Lineage
virus steals the login details of a player, allowing another player to
relieve him of the virtual money used to buy weapons, privileges or
abilities within the game. The different variations of the Legmir virus
target players of "Legend of Mir", stealing their passwords. Gaobot and
its variants, although more widely known for their bot characteristic
also try to get in on the act, stealing the Cd-Keys of several games,
and spreading to new potential victims. Similarly, they open a backdoor
on infected computers making them vulnerable to future attack. Users of
"World of Warcraft" could be affected by Trj/WoW.
According to Luis Corrons, director of PandaLabs: "The new financial
motivation for malware creators and the professionaliz
has led us to believe that the sacking of these virtual assets offers
potential returns for cyber-crooks that cannot be ignored."
In addition, it is important to consider the damage that this type of
malware represents for developers of games, allowing unauthorized users
to play freely using stolen login details or CD Keys. Moreover, if
companies block access to the key to prevent the fraud, legitimate users
will also be blocked with the consequent confusion and annoyance, and
generating a negative impression of the company.
One sound piece of advice for players who don't want their details or
virtual assets stolen is to ensure that they use legal software, which
has the guarantee of being genuine and untampered with by third parties.
It is also advisable to be wary of files sent over e-mail or chat
sessions, especially those accompanied by messages promising some kind
of benefit or profit. In particular, users are well advised not to open
any attachments unless they are completely sure they have come from a
trusted source. Another key to preventing infection and the spread of
this type of malicious software is the use of an integrated security
solution with preventive technologies, such as Platinum 2006 Internet
Security. Being aware of the way these threats spread and also of safe
practices will help reduce possible incidents to a minimum.
Help and suggestions needed and wanted from one and all in
Magnum Opus. (Yes, I have a big head. It's just a working title. >_>)
