Zak Mckracken has to be my number one underrated game. I spent months playing this game on my old Amiga 500 (with the.5MB to 1MB expansion card).
Quirky, Funny, Challenging, Great storyline. The game makers of today tend to go for hard and fast action, at the expense of the story. Ask any one who played Zak, even over 10 years ago, and they will recall fondly things like exploding an egg in the aeroplane microwave, or the aliens, or the monorail on mars.
The only game ever to come close to captivating my attention for this long is GTA:VC, but it still falls short.
E-gold works wonders. Pay any weight of gold, silver, platinum or palladium, all backed in real life by metal. You own the real metal and a payment is just a transfer of ownership. You don't even have to pay by weight, you can say $100USD worth of e-gold.
Been running for years, working really well, the only thing is the slow adoption rate and the fees. When (or if) this reaches critical mass it will be the best of all the options.
This is how i pay for my hosting and brought my domain name, not no mention a few other things.
Furthermore, I did tune the scanner in to pick up their communications. Alas the only ones I pick up is in Japanese, and i haven't spoken that for many lives.
I live on the route, and if my calculations are correct they'de be caning (if 50-100km/h is considered caning) past me a couple of hundred meters away. It's such a bastard thing to be lazy. Maybe I take the coolness of it all for granted.
But alas, i've seen it all before, and in two years time, i'll see it all again...
Federal computers fail security tests? That IS news. This IS sarcasm.
Is there still a person alive that doesn't realise that government computers are generally less secure than the mean? Complicated systems fused with apathy, ignorance and stupidity. It will nail you every time.
Paypal is bunk. It was a nice novelty to begin with but the amount of people with negative stories about them is astounding. The are evolving into something with a heart of pure evil. Or was that Microsoft.
Bugger it, anyway, gold baby gold. e-gold is the biggest electronic gold clearing house at the moment.
It's much more fun to pay in gold rather than dollars. And talking about ounces of product gets some great reactions:)
There are a few people to blame here. First of all Little Johnny Coward, for making all the wrong decisions - look at Ireland, tax breaks galore, that works so lets do it!
Secondly Richard Alston, that old man who doesn't understand these new fangled computer things...Internet censorship bill, yeah, why not...
Third, telstra, they don't care so much about broadband, as long as they make money (which they will, no matter what we use.
As far as I can tell the only way to fix the problem is elect a govenment that gives a shit about the way the world looks at us.
Personally I think these little green men would be more advanced than to use radio signals... they have a headstart on us of 2 billion years (or so they said last week), so they've had a little time to work these things out. Or was that little grey men...
