I reported it as a bug/feature request to the uTorrent forums and some admin just observed that it is strict sorting and then closed my thread :v: Such a shame that uTorrent and Vuze went closed-source.
I missed a report deadline for my dissertation. Worst kind of mindfuck, combination of being so tired and writing so many damn reports and sending them off, I honestly thought I went through the motions of sending it. But I didn't. And I missed deadline. No Grade.
20% down the drain. No pressure.
I'm going to bed.
I'm so tired of hearing the same shit on the radio. I pretty much hate today's music and I knew it's not just me:

I can't believe people buy this shit. I didn't need this video to get sick of hearing the same crap.
For fuck's sakes, what's wrong with people?
Someone is impersonating my best friend on Facebook with her name, some of her info (though most of it is incorrect), and all of her old pictures posting weird shit.
What the fuck, why would anyone do that?
[QUOTE=Mister Sandman;47238492]People who want to make life as hard as possible. I feel like this might be a southern thing, I wouldn't know, but, I hate these fuckin' people who walk around every day trying to make life as hard and shit as possible. And not just for themselves, for you and everyone else they can especially! These are the kind of people who never shut the fuck up about the ~real world~, the people who don't believe in the concept of a sick day, the people who will slap down a big fat fucking no fun allowed sign any time you suggest you might do something entertaining when you could be doing absolutely nothing instead, usually with some justification that "You're not here to X" or "If you can X, you can X", or "I do X every day so you can too" or some shit like that. They also always seem to enjoy exercising petty authority and making people think they're assholes.
They act like they know how everything is supposed to work and to them it's in the most grueling or unpleasant way humanly possible, their justifications going little more than "Because that's how things are".
I wonder why that's how things are when you're grimly determined to propagate things being that way, you boring, dull, infinitely annoying fuckhead.[/QUOTE]
I used to get this a lot as a kid, whenever I was off school due to being ill I'd usually just sit on the computer and fuck around all day since there was nothing else to do. I'd always end up with people saying shit like "you're not too ill to go to school if you are well enough to play games", well erm no actually because school was a 20 minute walk and back, walking around the school, attempting to work but feeling too much like shit to concentrate, whereas my PC and xbox and about were 6 feet away from my bed (it's not like I could sleep with a blocked nose any way), so no just because I was well enough to get up and walk over to my pc chair does not mean I was well enough for school.
[QUOTE=CaptainHijacks;47237205]Getting to the point where you lose control and have to let it out physically with violent behaviour is very unhealthy and it is uncommon. It is something you should contact your doctor about.

I know it seems really stupid but I only get this mad behind my computer. With other people or whatever i'm really laidback and relaxed but if Sony Vegas crashes when rendering at 90% or something i'll smash whatever's close
I really wish I didn't like video games as much as I did so I could have other, more creative and fulfilling hobbies. Right now I play video games so much because it lets me stay connected to the people who make up my social circle, which is entirely online because I know exactly no one since I moved to Colorado six years ago. If I wanted to, say, put a shitton of time into playing my bass guitar or learning how to draw, which I'd fucking love to do, I'd basically have to isolate myself for extended periods of time and I don't feel like I could handle that isolation. I value talking to friends too much and when you have none in real life, you just kill time doing nothing but veging in front of the computer and talking on Mumble. I wanna feel productive, like I'm actually doing something to better myself, be a little creative, but I'm fucking too scared to isolate myself like I would have to to do it.
And even worse, I pissed off a friend a few weeks back, someone whom I've known and played games with since 2005, and we've probably talked for less than a full hour since it happened so I feel like I've severed that relation.
And all that makes me really angry.

That's totally fine, you gather some ideas whenever you want to draw or learn for a song, that can give you an advantage. At least that's in my case whenever I play video games. You just have yourself to get into it. I do Programming, modelling and drawing as a hobby and I also play video games all day. The hard part is to really get into the hobby, because of the lack of motivation.
What I found out to work is to push yourself into it. Listening to music also helps.

Why is my work ethic so shit too? I have a paper due tomorrow, a 1200-1600 word case brief, and I have not done any of it because I waited until this weekend to get it done only to realize the case I took on covers laws that I don't know jack shit about because we haven't talked about employee rights in class yet. This left me no time to ask my teacher about it, no time to get some help on how to write it, and I'm basically fucked. Why did I do this? Because I'm a lazy asshole who hates school and thinks he can leave stuff until the last minute because I don't give a shit about passing with anything higher than a C. I don't know how to create a work ethic I need to actually pass my college classes in a timely manner because I've been a fucking idiot student for 15 years now with no motivation to actually do well in school.
Fuck everything. At this point I'm considering skipping class tomorrow too because we're suppose to do presentations on the cases and I don't feel like being there to go "Nope, I don't have anything." and then off myself right there in class out of sheer embarrassment.
you know its always great being majorly pissed off all weekend and not knowing why your pissed, Luckly I don't have friends who will hate me for being so mad, Fuck this anger

I've got a similar length paper due tomorrow as well and have had 3 weeks to do it its only worth 10 points as a draft but I always wait until the day before its due to write it. Gotta love procrastination aye?
Just finished my essay. :v:
You've got to detach yourself from your hobbies. Tell yourself to stop playing video games for the day; take a break. You'll find yourself with nothing to do and you'll eventually gravitate to the school task at hand, out of boredom.
Works for me, at least.

Cartoon characters can have overly realistic features to the point where they're unsettling, and the subject was a 3D model, which wikipedia even specifically has as an example.
". Examples can be found in the fields of robotics[2] and 3D computer animation,[3][4] among others."
People did explain before and after why it was counted within uncanny valley, you ignored them.
That's not the same as no one explaining.

It's not really a robot, but this applies on cgi like this one.[/QUOTE]
The reason there was an overwhelming amount of disagree ratings and even more dumb ratings per post you tried to argue that it was for robotics only, is because you were wrong.

I seem to be getting angry with myself over the smallest things and I don't know why. This morning I thought I had lost my iPod at some point when I got home from work last night, and all the way on my commute to Needham with my Dad this morning, I was silently, mentally beating myself up for having lost it even though it really wasn't my fault (it's small, dark purple, and pretty easy to lose).
Fortunately he found it in a small space in the car where I must have dropped it last night and gave it to me right before we departed so he could go to work and I could get to the train, which instantly made me feel better. But I'm just so sick and tired of getting angry at myself over these things.

That [I]explanation[/I] was simply someone saying "it applies to cgi" and that's it. It's not an explanation. And I never even remotely applied it was robotics [B]only[/B] (I never understand how people make these assumptions.)
As for 3D, it can definitely be uncanny valley too, but the uncanny valley is still about creepiness in near realism. Pinkie Pie has nothing realistic about it. [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1446237&p=47239869&viewfull=1#post47239869"]Giving it a realistic texture and rendering is just choosing a creepy artstyle[/URL], it's doesn't make it "almost real" looking. It's creepy but it's not uncanny.
i need a shit so bad, im at work for another hour but i can't go at work because i know its going to be loud and smelly and the toilet is basically in the office. The office is too quiet and small to not hear it.
