Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Not old books. They're all musty and moldy and the like. But I love the smell of new books. Also, new Magic cards, but those were the old days.

Holy fack! Who did Gintoki knock up?

and new video game manuals :| I feel so weird when I sniff them .-.

Oooops here you go :D Didn't break it.

Is it good? Do I need to play online?

First time i actually thought something in Tera looks cool :< pretty kitty

I play a lot of imports.
Oh and crappy RPG's I love them. I am a sucker for terrible gameplay and cliche story lines.

This week on My Strange Addiction, we look into the life of Narshecat who enjoys buying video games not to play them, but to sniff the manual that comes with them.

Thanks, Melodi-chan~
Wait... I don't remember it having all these cracks before... and why does it smell like superglue? :<

Poor Narshee, what will you do when everything is digital?

I.. dunno it was like that. Mmhm.

Suspicious.

*sips tea* But it provides an excellent flavour.

M-maybe we should use the spare we bought... Spath-sama will never know the difference... :x

Probably go back to sniffing my cat :|

... I'm weird. I embrace it but I'm ***' weird lol

I'll have to check it out. I have nothing to play really at the moment except finishing Resident Evil Revelation which I am currently putting off due to the fact of I don't wanna have to hold my 3ds for ever.

Plus I am waiting for HDN V to come out.

>implying games these days come with manuals

I can hardly call that little sleeve in most games a manual. Remember back in the day when games came with full on booklets that were more than 3 or 4 pages?

ftfy

[Facts] Glue makes everything tasty!

Grabbed hot pot of coffee and poured a cup, then realized i grabbed it with my bare hand instead of the handle :|

NO! I WANT MY EXTRA U!

So true.. most of my games come with one slip of paper that say to go online for the manual. :/ I did get The Witcher 2 and that came with a HUGE quest manual, a map, and a game manual :o

/puts them on the bed and rolls around

Fun game too.. pretty scenery

[Fact] 255:

255 (two hundred [and] fifty-five, CCLV) is the natural number following 254 and preceding 256.


In mathematics

---

Its factorization makes it a sphenic number. Since 255 = 28 - 1, it is a Mersenne number, and the fourth such number not to be a prime number. It is a perfect totient number, the smallest such number to be neither a power of three nor thrice a prime.

In base 10, it is a self number.

255 is a repdigit in base 2 (11111111) in base 4 (3333), and in base 16 (FF).


In computing

---

255 is a special number in some tasks having to do with computing. This is the maximum value representable by an eight-digit binary number, and therefore the maximum representable by an unsigned 8-bit byte (the most common size of byte, also called an octet), the smallest common variable size used in high level programming languages (bit being smaller, but rarely used for value storage). The range is 0 to 255, which is 256 total values.



For example, 255 is the maximum value:

• that can be assigned to elements in the 24-bit RGB color model, since each color channel is allotted eight bits.
  

• of any dotted quad in an IP address.
  

• of the alpha blending scale in Delphi (255 being 100% visible and 0 being fully transparent)

The use of eight bits for storage in older video games has had the consequence of it appearing as a hard limit in many video games. For example, in the earlier versions of The Legend of Zelda, Link can carry a maximum of 255 rupees. It was often used for numbers where casual gameplay would not cause anyone to exceed the number. However, in most situations it is reachable given enough time. This can cause many other peculiarities to appear when the number wraps back to 0.

This number could be interpreted by a computer as −1 if a programmer is not careful about which 8-bit values are signed and unsigned, and the two's complement representation of −1 in a signed byte is equal to that of 255 in an unsigned byte.

No! No math! You stop that! Stop it right now!

*takes notes*

don't know why, it's an awful story, the creator is bad, and her and the readers should feel bad.
