Today's Bits

[CSN NewsBot]

Not much happening, but there are a couple of great articles to take a look at today.

• ukterrorist has an incisive article dealing with apparent physical risks associated with gaming. the following is a nice snippet of the enjoyable read.

  with the exception of a doctor informing you otherwise, it is fine to drink a fair amount of caffeine up to 300mg in the table shown below. as mentioned, if you do not consume caffeine in high doses regularly then jumping suddenly will have a few side effects. you will most likely wish to improve your reaction time, which would be successful, but you may experience a jittery feeling and find yourself being more nervous in tense situations.

  if you're inclined to read this fairly lengthy article just on health effects in gaming, then go right here for it.
  
  
  
  
• gamers.nu has finally posted up the second part of the "20 gamers on equipment" feature. as the title sugests, this is an article based on what professional gamers tend to use when playing. to compare your wimpy setup, go go go!.
  
  
  
  
• counter-server maps have introduced a new custom map, de_vine, created by slackiller. if you're still interested in custom maps, then i hope you give this a chance.

Now don't you feel much better knowing you did something with your eyes besides virtual killing for a couple of hours?

That UKT article should be read by all gamers, so it shouldn't really appear in a news bit :S

I wonder if DchozN will ever run out of ways to introduce newsbits. :)

I give him a week. Now pardon me I need to get a 2 liter of Dew downed before I start on CS for the night.

DchozN will never run out of ideas to introduce newsbits. They're like Batman, all it takes is the right person to keep them comming.

yeah, that's a great article. One week I went away didn't have any soda or any caffiene and that night I drank a few pepsi's, alot of sugar..and omg my arms were so jittery...they wouldnt stop shaking, and it makes you laugh so hard whenever something dumb is said..or it might have been the other thing I was doing.. *no comment*

hey next news bits should be called 'Tig ol' Bitties' rofl.



anyways, i drink aboot 1.5 liters of dr. pepper a day (healthy, aint it?) and about 1-1.5 gallons of water to offset the soda. i work construction so thats why i drink so much water, ya cant get thirsty. obviously i live a pretty active life so hopefully the soda wont fux me up down the road, i figure as long as im drinking more water than soda i should be cool. until the Marines in feb then im outta soda 4 good. shiat!
