OpenTTD

08.08.2010 · Posted in Personal

It’s been a while since I last played Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe. Really nice game which now also available in Fedora through YUM (yum install openttd*).

New version has new signals (path signals) which makes it really better. One thing to remember: since path signals are shown only to one direction, there are two types of those signals: one way and both ways. In case of one way – trains can go in back direction of the signal, which (eventually) led me to a train crash :(((( So from now on I prefer to put two ways signals in usual cases just to be sure :)

The Last Minute

Yet another strange, fucked up but cool movie for today: The Last Minute. One thingy I would move out of it is short musicals like parts, but they are too few to pay much attention to them. The idea behind this movie is pretty good though.

PS: Thanks Maxim (AMuHb) for pointing out this movie for me.

Watched “Mother and Son”

Just watched Mother and Son – a very nice, touching and kind movie. It is not one of those movies you would normally find around you, but that doesn’t make it worser, it is just different in a way.

Edit: Thanks to Anya for advising to watch this movie and getting a DVD for me
BTW: this is the 300 post in my blog :)
