pc"Lifestream" Tutorial
posted by Prowler at October 27, 2009, 05:54:50 PM

Backstory: A long, long time ago, I created an image I entitled "Lifestream." Apparently, it has something to do with Final Fantasy VII, as legions of concerned fanboys immediately notified me (and then proceeded to educate me on the subject, as well as what color it should actually be and etc.).  Others wanted to know how I created the image. To those individuals, I said, "Oh my God I really have no idea stop asking me that question."

Well, years later after no one cares, I've finally been able to recreate it.  This is a very open-ended process that I hope leads to amazing images, or tutorials inspired by it.

For the most part, everything on the site works the way it should. Ignoring Recent Articles, of course, because they're intentionally not pointing to the correct forums for now.

I'm going to work on adding additional items, such as displaying the comments below articles and posts, soon.

I've been working for the past few hours on CAN trying to restore some of the functionality that existed before--it is fairly simple to change a few things around thanks to a few coding changes in Simple Machines, but I'm flying a somewhat blindly as it stands, so it's taking longer than normal.

xxHappy Motherfucking 10th Anniversary!
posted by Prowler at July 10, 2009, 08:47:53 PM

In the long run, it means very little that some form of this site has been around for ten years. Mostly because of the dozen data crashes, lost database information, change of focus, months to years of inactivity on an otherwise functional site or a completely broken one.  But fuck it, let's celebrate anyway!

xxWhat the What is Going On?

I'm fixing things so I can finally start posting articles on the front page again.  Nothing special, really.  But you'll notice things appearing, disappearing, reappearing, and the like for a bit.

In case you're wondering why there was some downtime all yesterday and the day before, apparently our server burned down.

Yes. It burned.

xxFloyd Mayweather Jr. Makes it Rain in the club....with Counterfeit Money
posted by Prowler at May 21, 2008, 04:31:31 AM

So apparently, the boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. decides to make it rain for the bitches in the strip club.

With fake $100 bills.  This is the point in this entry that I would make up an analogy to an equally stupid situation, but I honestly can't think of something in the same league of idiocy.

xxChild Porn is Not Protected Speech
posted by Prowler at May 19, 2008, 07:16:19 PM

A 2003 federal law made it a crime not only to produce and possess child porn, but also to "pander" material, conveying the belief that material contains minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. The pandering provision covers anyone who "advertises, promotes, presents, distributes, or solicits" this material.

A Florida man, who was convicted of promoting child porn, was challenging this law. Thank God, the law was upheld by the Supreme Court.

Fuck it, nothing about child porn is "free speech."
