I've been switching between programming in Python and Quake C lately and it's starting to scramble my brain. Keep having to remind myself: tabs or spaces? do I need curly braces? etc. .

I'm playing through Than's map pack "Deathmatch Dimension" on stream over at twitch.tv/andreaen.

I've been looking forward to this one for a while, I love single player reworks of DM maps.

Picking up my game of Shadowrun Hong Kong again today on stream at twitch.tv/andreaen.

Been 4 or 5 months since I last played. I believe I'm in the middle of the bonus campaign (after the events of the main game).

CW: Movie Talk, To Live And Die In L.A. (1985)

Watched To Live And Die In L.A. after putting it off for a few weeks. "Pulp" would be the word for it I think. A procedural cop-versus-counterfeiter story elevated by great performances and William Friedkin's direction.

Really good but also evil & mean. Grim. (I'm beginning to think that could describe most of Friedkin's movies). Plot goes from normal procedural to horrific unrecoverable death spiral. Ended up being way more intense than I expected.

Soundtrack by Wang Chung.

Conclusion: Zerstorer and FMJ 3 are both pretty good. Zerstorer accomplished a lot for a mod made in '97 (breakables, rain, new models & sounds), and FMJ 3 was a cool throwback. I particularly liked MFX and Tronyn's maps from FMJ 3.

Next time I spin up Quake I think I'll play czg's Honey mod and Func Map Jam 1 (the Honey-themed jam)

It's funny to me that most of the reviews I see on Discogs now are comments about this or that particular pressing. I like the half-thought-out comments about the music itself more.

I guess that means I should make an account there and start posting reviews.

My copy still has the receipt with it, says I purchased it in November 2002.

I remember being really confused by it at the time but thinking it was super funky. Being drawn to it in spite of (or because of) how weird it was.
