Maybe the publisher's based in SF. http://www.pentadact.com/2009-02-09-i-am-here/#comment-46759 westyfield Fri, 13 Feb 2009 16:16:18 +0000 http://www.pentadact.com/?p=584#comment-46759 Is 'Something Versus Something' the strategy game 'Stalin Vs. Martians'? And does that title make you want the game to be released, now? (Click the name for more info)

I wonder if KEEP would be able to provide support for, say, decade-old MMOs whose developers stopped providing servers years ago. http://www.pentadact.com/2009-02-09-i-am-here/#comment-46745 Pentadact Fri, 13 Feb 2009 00:06:40 +0000 http://www.pentadact.com/?p=584#comment-46745 Jebus: interesting stuff.

It's about project KEEP, which is being done by the European Union, to make sure that all our old software (games, etc) can be protected against the march of time. More in the article (just click my name for the link). http://www.pentadact.com/2009-02-09-i-am-here/#comment-46734 Jebus Thu, 12 Feb 2009 13:53:21 +0000 http://www.pentadact.com/?p=584#comment-46734 Pentadact, I'm guessing the lamp you mentioned clicks 3 times before it turns on because it is designed to be used with 3 way light bulbs. The ones that are like 50 watts, 100 watts, and 150 watts. Each click activates the next wattage and the fourth turns it back off. The hotel probably just put in regular light bulbs so the first two clicks don't do anything. Sorry if this was already answered, I only skimmed the comments. http://www.pentadact.com/2009-02-09-i-am-here/#comment-46732 ZomBuster Thu, 12 Feb 2009 12:16:39 +0000 http://www.pentadact.com/?p=584#comment-46732 Ah too bad, that would have been a lot cooler to figure out. http://www.pentadact.com/2009-02-09-i-am-here/#comment-46730 Bobsy Thu, 12 Feb 2009 11:20:25 +0000 http://www.pentadact.com/?p=584#comment-46730 Maggie vs. Hesletine: the ROCKENING Only in San Francisco, huh?

The San Francisco trip wasn't related to the something vs something game.
