Ohhhhh yes!! Do WANT.

And there was much rejoicing!

The extremely tricky way in which it introduced a bidirectional dependency, completely different from regular header files, made for great pillow talk though. But alas, no more!

Ok, time for the Winter Edition of the golden circle tour! You may remember the Gullfoss waterfall in the fall. I revisited this spot on January 2nd, 2010, when the tour guide estimated it be "about minus 25". The suffering I endure for this blog! But the view was worth it...

Usually game development means years of hiding in a cave until marketing says "Go", but thanks to GDC, we get to reveal some stuff we're working on right here, right now! If you're not watching this in HD, I will come over and kick your ass.

The last 24 hours we're getting hundreds of small earthquakes under the glacier not far from Vik and the museum I wrote about earlier. There is an alert out that there might be an eruption and/or large quake. Not sure what a volcanic eruption from underneath a glacier would look like, but it might be spectacular. Then again, the eruption/quake might be 10 km underground and we miss the show. How exciting! :D

Next Saturday, March 6th 2010, Iceland will hold the referendum that decides if the Icesave-law stands, or becomes void. Some colleagues have been very helpful in explaining and summarizing what's going on, and now the government has released this exceptionally clear and concise summary that seems to be in line with what I've been hearing. A second document has the exact numbers and figures. If you're curious what this is really all about, I suggest reading these -- they're both only two pages!

God dammit! Fuck you to anyone who recommended Watchmen and/or Inglourious Basterds. Undeveloped characters you couldn't care less about, doing incoherent and yet terminally predictable crap that isn't going anywhere, resulting in a three hour "was there an actual story in there?" waste of time. Fuck, I could've watched paint dry instead.

Ah well. So much for my brief Hollywood-movie-catch-up-stint, what was I thinking... Quick, back to games!

Wee, last night it started snowing and this morning it was awesome. Here's a boring movie of my walk to work :) Note UV scrolling groundplane \o/

"error X4509: invalid register semantic 'i0', or variable must be bound to multiple register banks (c register binding required)"

The last two nights we've had some faint Northern Light above Reykjavik, much to everyone's surprise. Here's a few pics, they're not that great, but well, I was caught off guard. Read: I have no idea (yet) how to photograph these things properly.
