I can't read anymore today as I am about to read my 25 refresh limit. Damn guess I'll have to read ShugaShack the rest of the day.

Two sites which are sustained by ads but are not porn:

ShackNews
Fuckedcompany

There are others.

Here's a shot from a few days ago showing reflections off curved surfaces and multiple soft shadows.

I could critise Microsoft over this (but this is probably just a few odd employees who did this), but then I'd be a hypocrite because I have participated in ballot stuffing before.

About two months ago, Entertainment Weekly did a poll on Entertainer of the year. It was soon posted on Fark and then slowly migrated itself to the Something Awful forums. Now, we decided to ballot stuff it with "Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka" due to the fact that they didn't have any sort of security method to stop people from doing multiple votes.

It soon became a battle when the Shack News forums and some other forum started a battle with us. So we then got cocky and wrote various scripts in langauges varying from Perl to JavaScript (I wrote a script in mIRC considering I wanted to write it in a small bit of time). From all of our efforts, Lowtax got over 500,000 votes.

Yes, Lowtax was on top, but then they took the site down and then reopened it with a security measure and a little comment in the webpage taunting us. A few weeks later the results came out and I am not sure who got into the Top 10, but Lowtax and Something Awful DID get a mention in an article they wrote later.

If I hadn't done that, I'd be saying things differently here.

That's the got the comment community /. does - for gamers.

Steve Gibson(along with EasyspeakDSL) over at shacknews is starting to offer shackdsl, which is geared totally towards gamers. Static IP, SDSL connection (758k I think), direct access to dedicated game servers. However, it doesnt come cheap, i think it is around $90 per month.

Now mind you every store in town seems to have plenty of Gamecubes in stock, but if you want an X-Box, you have to kill for it.

Goldman Sachs did a survey among U.S. retailers in big cities, and so far 73% had sold out of the Xbox and 47% out of the Gamecube. Microsoft shipped an estimated 300,000 Xbox consoles around the nation, while Nintendo delivered some 700,000.

Granted, this was a bit farther back in November, but the numbers seem plausible.
And as always: "There are lies, damn lies, and marketing!" (or somethin like that)

No date yet on the Mac version, but it's coming soon (not gold yet,
though). We don't have plans to sell Linux in retail, but Timothee
has done great work on the downloadable binaries so far, and I expect
that to continue.

I was just too stoked to see this. Those wacky kids over at sCary's carved pumpkins the other night. The best, hands down, is the middle one here. I dont ever think I've ever seen a Thundercats logo in a pumpkin. Even better: shugaMom was the one who carved it.

In case you haven't been there in awhile, sCary's Shugashack no longer exists under that name. Steve wanted a more "presentable" name. It's now known as Shacknews. And he hasn't used the name sCary in like 2 years.

Screen Shot. However, it is not real :). Saw this on Shacknews.

So what's next? Dunno, but there is the matter of those domain name registrations. I'm just guessing here, but I'm thinking Monkey Stone would be Tom's choice. I hear primates are the in thing for developer names these days anyhow...

Good luck, guys.

P2P would be perfect for this.

that was back on May 9th

now it's the poll to remove it.

shacknews had talked about this about a week ago

anyway it's a pretty big deal. For me, i get to hear about how i'm a "gay4ss l0z3r" using the "wirefr4m3 asus h4ck" when i 0wn everyone in CS

Just like in HHGTTG, if you were able to get there (or in this case pay) you'd have known about it right?

Of course, how else are they going to stop the little guys like us from catching big business with their pants around their ankles for putting patents out on things like multiplayer games. Fuckers. I mean, when society is heading toward freedom of information, what more do we need than a ministry of information. I know this isn't quite to that degree yet, but it's a start. Make it less accessable to the common man, and then they start making it harder and harder to get access, until finally, this "public" office has nothing for the public to worry about..... move along, nothing to see here.

Sorry about that :)

I disagree. I also run Windows as my primary OS; IE is by far the slowest browser I've used. For raw speed, nothing right now beats Opera. Although supposedly it sticks to the standards to most, a lot of pages dont look perfect in it. Mozilla is definitely getting MUCH better. I'm actually using it right now: much faster than IE6.0 in just about everything. These are my experiences; your mileage may vary. As an aside, does Slashdot use http/1.1 compression? One of my favorite game news sites now uses it, and everything loads perceptibly faster...

Here's my favorite gaming sites to visit almost daily:

VoodooExtreme
Shacknews
Stomped
Computer Gaming Online
GamesSpy
3D News
Firing Squad
Avault
Games Domain
GamesMania
IGN News (PC)

sCary's renamed Shugashack (now ShackNews) is still around.

As is Blue's News

Now, UGO has paid half (repeat: HALF) of what was due for December, and the fundraiser helped as well.

"If we are unable to see a positive response at E3, this will have a disasterous impact on Nintendo...and we may have to consider freezing the Gamecube business altogether."

BUT in reality what he was saying is that they would hold the release until a more favorable opinion came out. Don't think freeze as in stop, think freeze as in freeze-thaw.

Here's the real scoop.

Pardon me if this seems harsh, but people need to CHECK THEIR FACTS before they submit a story.

--

Yikes! Holy bad translations batman! He's actually referring to the release and holding back the console until they can get a positive response.

There. The Gamecube will be produced, but depending on the feedback from E3, they might hold back the release of the console.

'We have high hopes for the show and are confident the games will impress and astound attendees.'

Now if they could make some real games for the system. Mario and Zelda shoudn't be the only reason to buy a console. (Oh yea, forgot Mario Paint)

What about ASP and ColdFusion? Gee, why didn't I see them here? And what about the homebrew server-side code that the Shack uses? That site's uptime and responsiveness is greater than that of Slashdot, which is primarily due to the server running BSD rather than Linux. And that web server doesn't even have a RAID cage (the proof is in the "0 comments" lines beside some of the mid-March articles, due to a missed backup).
