Nostradamus 101

Miri-Sarawak — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 10:47:27 +0800

Mostly people are sceptikal about this guy, but there are some truth in it... or all of it.

Nostradamus Time !!

In the year 1555, Nostradamus, wrote the following verse, given in the original Old French: The verse, part of his prophetic writings, was designated as Century I, Quatrain 29:

Quand le poisson terrestre et aquatique,
Part forte vague au gravier sera mis,
Sa forme étrange suave et horrifique,
Par mer aux murs bien tôt les ennemis.

A strict translation can be given in these modern English words:

When fish and other land and sea life,
By force will be put upon the beach by a strong wave,
Its form will appear strange, oily and horrible,
Coming by seawater very steadily it shall climb the walls as an enemy.

This refer to Gulf of Mexico Oil spill..

BFBC2: Sniper Bullet

Miri-Sarawak — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 17:04:59 +0800

Im mostly into Recon so sniping is my main skill.. to the head.
In PS3, BFBC2 Beta, the sniper bullet arch.. the bullet drop on distance which make it fun cause i can shoot people hiding behind walls at a certian angle. But in BFBC2 for the PC, the bullet goes straight, i do mean straight like the dot on my scope.

1. Does BFBC2 need PHYSX by Nvidia card?

2. I use HD5870 ATI mean i dont have PHYSX.

3. Any option so can turn on the bullet arch or its own "PHYSX"?

Anyone can help? Especially one using the Nvidia GPU. Are your sniper bullet drop in distance?
Just wanna find out.
