I knew about audio CDs, but just didn't know that VM technology couldn't replicate that. Between that and Direct3d, it sounds like a really limited environment... a Windows 98 computer would be a much better option to invest in. I shall need to get one in the future, though that will be after things stabilize (if they do) out here.

Yeah, martial arts has been a thing I have been doing for years, but it just was more about the exercise than the actual excitement of it. You need a certain mindset to do martial arts, one where you are willing to be talked down to and ordered around, and I just can't handle that. I am far too much of an individual to let others just demand like that. Plus I get more exercise from dancing, I get heavy into my music, so it was relatively worthless. I never really felt it a good waste of my time when not there, it was an inconvenience to go, and I am glad to be given back that time.

Nods, that cannon is quite a bit curious, just for the concept of being shot out of one. If you saw my videos, it might make a bit more sense, but basically what I am seeing is that GLQuake and software Quake interpret untextured surfaces differently. In regular Quake, you got that pink texture, while in GLQuake you get a blurry mirroring effect that makes things a lot harder to see. This also means noclipping is a lot harder in GLQuake, the void also has this blurry nature that just shows the last thing you saw.

No real surprise to me. He suffers from a lot of depression. I mostly take a "what will be will be" approach. I admittedly have a different mindset to most about suicide, I feel if someone is pushed to that level it is ultimately their choice if they do it or not. Unlike society, I don't see much of an obligation to "save" you from it, especially when doing such may just be putting you back into a terrible situation. If you are highly depressed, preventing you from dying just leads to you being stuck in hell again.

Yes, Dominus is a good friend, but trying to stop him would just be selfish. I would be trying to keep him alive for my own pleasure. I feel it is much better to not put such pressure on him, so he can focus on his pleasure and what makes him happiest. That is what being a good friend is about in my eyes.
