Atheist too, but then I still can be able to convey the message to wish for everybody a Merry Xmass? Its not about christ anyway, its some pagan ritual of like couple thousand year ago that us pagans used to have, 2 weeks of celebrations before turning to work again, before we where mandatory converted into christians. Oh, we had some rituals... lets put those in some biblical context... so we move the village tree from the outside into our houses, let them have a small stable with child Jesus in it and then its sanctioned... and that 2 weeks, let cut off every time a day or so, so it gets shortened to a day. But Jesus was actually born somewhere in spring if one would believe the scientist who researched the whole bunch, for the population count Maria was traveling for was then, not in winter. and oops, where off a couple years as well... should be like 2006 right now, or 2015, nobody knows exactly. The Apostles didn't learn to write till 65 AD or some. Well, back to the pagan rite, it was mostly to celebrate the midwinter turn, as from now the days become longer (on northern half of the world anyway). Yeah, yeah, that was the 21st... more influence from those Christian church. All of the sudden, the whole Christmas isn't about Christ, or about pagan rites or w/e. Its all make-believe. The wishes? its just wishing ppl to have a good time during those days. Thats bout it. If you feel offended by it, one should get some dose of humor for those ppl that in the past couldn't seem to get it right. so far we got: - Birth of christ: off by at least 3 months - pagan winter solstice rite, off for bout 4 days. - ehm? whats left? getting together and having a good time. Now, again: Merry Christmas And if you have read above, you know I dont mean it offending. I just wish you a good time for a specific time period. Thats bout it.

Re: [hlds] Mandatory TF2 update coming Wednesday
I second this. I used to stutter a LOT while playing tf2, sometimes it was almost unbearable. Today I played for 2 hours straight without any stuttering, and it's amazing. Thankyou Valve. -Cameron Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2011 08:35:04 -0400 From: molaugh...@gmail.com To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds] Mandatory TF2 update coming Wednesday Valve, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU This is the best update in years.

Tracking targets in melee and navigating through the area in and out of windows and ledges with a scout is so much more intuitive and enjoyable now. Thank you.

I've been getting reports of synchronized crashes affecting a set of players on my server and experienced it myself. It doesn't affect all players, but it definitely affects more than one player at the same time and it crashes the client back to OS without any warning or message. It's frequent and it appears to be happening on other servers aswell, as i have been told. Can't confirm that 100%, though. I think it should have something to do with the item server as long as it is a synchronized crash.

However, the Sleep system call may be imprecise and wake the process up slightly later than intended. Setting host_timer_spin_ms will reduce the value passed into Sleep by that many milliseconds, but will cause the process to busy wait for longer while it waits for the next tick and thus increase CPU usage. The var will not improve your framerate if you’re constantly below 66 (i.e. a bogged down server), but may improve consistency on a sub-second scale.
