  4. Re:Mobile Phone Marketing on Snakes on The Net Fail to Put Butts in the Seats · · Score: 1

    you only got those when someone you knew typed your number into the movie's website. Thats some nice friends you got there.

  5. Re:Notes & Questions? on The State of DS Homebrew (it rocks!) · · Score: 1

    Oh, then it probably has the same gui as the App I mentioned, since the author created it as a demo for other DS developers to implement and use.

  6. Re:Why Bother? on The State of DS Homebrew (it rocks!) · · Score: 1

    My initial response was going to be: can any of those play the very excelent DS games :)

    I love my ds, and I was excited when I got the hardware to do other things (and play some of the pretty good homebrew thats out there)

  7. Re:PDA!! on The State of DS Homebrew (it rocks!) · · Score: 1

    It not a terribly good PIM app, but it isn't bad. A little more work and a few more apps, and it could replace my Zaurus (which has some pretty bad PIM apps as well)

  8. Re:Notes & Questions? on The State of DS Homebrew (it rocks!) · · Score: 1

    I didn't know there was a wardriving type ap for the DS. I thought DS2Key was for some strange gamepad emulation via wifi. They may have a server browser built in that I don't know about. I did stumble across a program that would do something similar (I really just want netstumblerDS :) called hobito's wifi setup app. Its terribly unfinished right now. Will be nice when it is completed.

  9. Re:Finally! on Frets on Fire - Guitar Hero for Linux/Windows · · Score: 2, Informative

    AFAIK, this isn't the first guitar hero PC clone, though it does look nicer than the one i've been playing:

    http://www.hardkore.org/~ohsnap/

    That one actually uses the GH miniSG controller via ps2->usb adapter. Its pretty sweet, and theres tons of songs available already. Too bad most of them are wicked hard and I'm average at best.

  10. Re:Beta Tagging... on Razer's New Mouse Optimized for MMO and RTS · · Score: 1

    Have you ever been to digg? Even just viewing their "front page" feed, most of the articles there are pretty much garbage. Oh boy, another article on apple/ajax/web2.0/ubuntu howto/etc. I visit digg because they post MORE news, but more isn't always better.

  11. Re:Won't start until 10 minutes before game. on ASCII World Cup · · Score: 1

    Noon EST tomorrow (June 14). Todays games are already over. First Match tomorrow is Tunisia vs Saudi Arabia.

  12. Too bad theres no game airing right now... on ASCII World Cup · · Score: 1

    And I get espn360 through whatever deal is worked out between my ISP and fifa. Damn, I was really looking forward to how "ridiculous" it really is

  13. Re:wow on Social Engineering Using USB Drives · · Score: 1

    Good point. good thing i have autoplay disabled and probably would format the thing, not caring to know whos fob it was :)

  14. wow on Social Engineering Using USB Drives · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Thats an amazingly clever idea. "Hey, free stuff" is what I would think. And then plug it into my ubuntu box :)

  15. Re:Ok so... on Oblivion Patch Causing Issues · · Score: 1

    if you unplug before loading the game, leave it unplugged while playing, the next time you connect your achievements will be uploaded. They're cached on the xbox untill it can sync up with xbl

  16. Re:w00t! on Verified: Record-breaking Pitfall! Run · · Score: 1

    I also am turning 24 next month... I didn't feel old... before this

  17. Re:Yes, but... on Alienware GeForce 7900 SLI Notebook Tested · · Score: 1

    breezy worked perfectly on my toshiba. Only change i needed to make was supply ndiswrapper the proper driver for my pcmcia wifi card. Other than that, it was all good.

  18. Re:Is it me or on Indie Games Go Retail · · Score: 4, Informative

    Dark Horizons has a pretty robust fanbase. They even had their own convention last year somewhere in PA. I know the devs are proud of their game and participate in the community a bit. I've also heard good things about bridge constructor set. There also is a demo of Gish, which was a prime example of a solid indie game. I cant really speak for the rest of the collection, but at least some interesting indie titles are making it to retail.

  19. Re:Downloadin' Not Gamin' on Xbox Live Hits 24 Million Downloads · · Score: 1

    Well, the 600tb number was listed as "data" so I wonder if that includes multiplayer game data as well. I wonder if this also includes the number of times I have to frakking restart downloads on their system

  20. Re:I'm thinking less. on Well I'll Be A Monkey's Uncle · · Score: 1

    try walmart in a rural area on the first saturday of the month. There should be laws against some of that...

  21. OT:Re:fine restaurants are terrible on Ken Kutaragi's Famous Last Words · · Score: 1

    Here in Buffalo, we just call them "wings".

  22. Re:Mallrats comes to mind on Slashdot CSS Redesign Contest Update · · Score: 1

    That would be Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back.

    Also, note that taco might have brough that on, saying he wanted submissions to be slashdot-"ish". Thus the tracers :)

  23. Re:fuck you Zonk on Grand Theft Auto IV Unveiled On 360 · · Score: 1

    OK, I'll concede. Being on the 360 is quite the steal for Microsoft. For me, this is one of the few franchises that was sony "exclusive" that I missed by having a broken ps2.

  24. Re:fuck you Zonk on Grand Theft Auto IV Unveiled On 360 · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    As much as I dislike Zonk (and I do), it was strangely worded in the announcement, just enough to make it sound like an exclusive. Everyone took the tattoo to mean totally exclusive, i guess, and ran with it. I'd blame microsoft for making such a big deal out of having GTA4 on their console. However, as a 360 owner, I'm kinda excited, if they actually do something new with gta4.

  25. Re:GTAIV this holiday. on Grand Theft Auto IV Unveiled On 360 · · Score: 1

    October, 2007 is not this holiday, AFAIK
