Upcoming Game security information

A quick update as to what I'm doing lately .. I've started reading a huge book on software security with a specialization in games.. Now I was wondering if it is something that you would like to hear some about as well for me to post on my blog here?

Basically it's some interesting material as to what the companies do wrong, how they should be doing it and some key security aspects that are being used in the modern world today..

This is especially interesting to those who are in software and game development, but also quite a nice read to people who are simply entertained by reading about security protocols and methods such as CD-Keys, Lower-Layer Protection and prevention of piracy, cheating and griefing!

Auto Insurance Quotes

So yeah.. I've just recently gotten the bill for my Car insurance and may I say that it pains me to see the price yet again (Pains me every year).. I know this post may be a bit random, but I really felt like sharing my agony with you guys!

Auto Insurance Quotes sound so good when they tell you about em.. But they all seem the same when you put it down on paper!

Am I the only one doesn't like the prices of this type of insurance!? :P

Sorry for the short post.. I'll post double tomorrow ;)

Blizzcon accident!

So as some of you may or may not know Blizzcon, a huge gaming conference setup by Blizzard Entertainment for their games, is being held this weekend.. During the event there are several contests such as tournaments in the games for professionals, best costume and cosplay, but also a dance contest.. Now this poor guy who is obviously cosplaying an undead male from World of Warcraft is going to do the dance and is jumping a little bit too high imo, lands wrong and... Yeah well.. You should go ahead and watch the clip yourself.. (Don't worry, it doesn't look crazy or anything and shouldn't really gross anyone out :P)

The Social Network

Ok so, seeing as I'm quite a bit tired today and feeling forced to kinda post SOMETHING on my blog to give you guys something to read, I felt like posting something about facebook - the movie!

I'm not going to post a whole lot of spoilers, but there will be a slight few.. If you havent seen the movie yet, I can easily recommend it though! It's a fantastic movie which gives a lot to talk about afterwards as well!

The founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, has finally revealed in an interview, which parts of the movie he finds to be truth and which are wild guesses and fantasy from the scripters side.. Amongst the things he found very impressive were the fact that all the clothes the actor acting Mark Zuckerberg was wearing were identical to clothes that the real Mark has in his drawer! Now that's quite a lot of homework someone's been doing there.. I'd suffice it to say it's a bit scary don't you think? Knowing all the clothing details? Hmmm! I'll let you decide what to think about this one ;)

A really big deal in the movie is the motivation that made Mark create Facebook.. In the movie, [SMALL SPOILER] he does it mainly for popularity and girls! Lots and lots of girls! I could agree that that is a valid point of view and could have been a possibility if it wasn't because the real Mark Zuckerberg already had a girlfriend at the time he started creating facebook, and he still has her today.. This concludes that girls was really not a motivation in the making of Facebook, but rather the fact that he wanted to create something new and innovative.. Something that would change the world!

So have you guys seen the movie yet? If so, what do you think about it? If not, are you going to see it?

Power cut!

Well well, today we're sitting here at the university with absolutely no power for our laptops.. The power has been cut to swap out some cables and a box that spreads the power out to the entire building. So I have about 50 minuttes left on my battery.. Yes!! Wonderful.. And I've got about 7 hours left here.. What to do .. What to do..

We're having this lesson about security.. What kind of security do we possibly need to know about as a programmer? That we'll dash our heads into the computer keyboard because we fall asleep on the job? This is gonna be interesting..

Luckily enough though I have my mobile to kill boredom.. And other than that I guess I'll have to just take notes I guess :P haha!

To make sure this post is not all super boring life material, I'd like you to see this Just for Laughs (thanks BLUERAD for reminding me of this awesome series of lulz!)

Bored - What do you do?

So I've been talking about how boring math is on my twitter lately, but now a new subject has come to my table and this one is even more boring! We're basicly learning a whole lot of elementary stuff that we've heard before. Without going into further describtion of the subject - I'm going to talk about a little fun way I use to get past this boredom.

About 5-10 years ago I played a game called Transport Tycoon. It recently got to my attention again when I noticed someone playing it during a lesson. Appearently there's a new and free version of it out there called "Open TTD". I use a lot of time to play this game, combine the transportation methods, crash some planes and loose 7 million dollars on that and what not. It's really fun once you get into it!

But now I'd like to ask you, what would/do you use to kill time during small boring lessons of no importance? ;)

Hello World!

Ah yes.. The first blog post and also the starter of the programming language of C.. The very first program ever made was a simple program, posting "Hello World!" on a screen with a simple "Printf("Hello World!")" command.

I'm going to be talking a little more advanced in the future however - seeing as the simple Hello World is filling us all with a sense of IMMERSING boredom and the feeling of "GOD We're not THAT stupid!"

But seeing as this is my first introductionary blogging post, this is all I'm going to write for today. I'm hoping to see a lot of bloggers visit my site awaiting exciting future post! Especially seeing as I'm going to be making a lot of exciting programs in the future, and this is where I'm going to show my current work and ideas.

Welcome to my blog!
