  1. Starting at 10am PST today, New Vegas download is $4 at Gamefly (Steam activates). I did see Splinter Cell 3D (3DS) for $10 at Amazon. http://amzn.com/B004L491A6 16 Bit Arena is free for download at Amazon. http://amzn.com/B00BR37EO4 Video card with games. Worth at least looking at: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=14-150-605&Tpk=N82E16814150605 To get this at a great deal of $188 + free shipping, use the rebate and use promo code EMCXRTW26.
  2. I like tofu, but Chipotle has a certain flavor they like to target. It's not my cup of tea.

  4. So I grab the newspaper and look for some stuff going on this weekend. First article that catches my eye is about game consoles... By Stephen Totilo. Funny.

      Funny, because it's the Fresno Bee, not the NYT or another huge publication.

      Gotcha. Got a link? I'm wondering if it's an article exclusively for them or not.

  5. First gamers hated it. Then, Fox News. Now The Inquirer? MS has a shitstorm on their hands. http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/2270959/xbox-one-could-track-everything-you-watch-on-tv

  6. Deal on new 3DS: Purple 3DS, SMB3DL, NSMB2 all for $169. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.1307660

      Good, that was too tempting.

      If it had been an XL, I would been pretty tempted.

  7. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/terrorism-in-the-uk/10074881/Mum-talked-down-Woolwich-terrorists-who-told-her-We-want-to-start-a-war-in-London-tonight.html The more details you learn, the more horrific the events were. And, is it really necessary for people to tweet/instagram/other the pictures for everyone to see? That's not very kind to his friends and kin.
  8. http://slickdeals.net/f/6046230-iOS-EA-Memorial-Day-99-Game-Sale Some people are saying these Memorial Day deals are returning saying "not available in the US", but they might be worth trying once it reaches the weekend. :/ Anyway, I'd buy some, but I already own a lot of these titles on my iPhone. Mirror's Edge is fun on the iPhone, but plays in the third person.
  9. Well, some may say murder is murder. But, hacking someone to death is definitely an item of note that should invoke an emotional response. We are human, after all.
  10. https://www.facebook.com/meowmix/app_361266417322880 I encourage this one. I have the meow mix ringtone on my IP phone. Should go nice with your trip to the SPCA this weekend.
  11. I hope GB has the death penalty still (though probably not). These two fuckwads would be excellent candidates.
  12. No, I'm not excited, though I have yet to reach that 40 milestone, which may account for the lack of pants shitting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSHNq79o-gM
  13. Seems that EA is going to do some Star Wars pushing at E3, which actually has me pretty pumped up. http://www.joystiq.com/2013/05/22/ea-to-show-star-wars-plans-at-e3/ This has me even more psyched up! http://www.macrumors.com/2013/05/21/star-wars-knights-of-the-old-republic-might-come-to-the-ipad/ I might buy an iPad, just for this.
  14. “The decision wasn’t ‘we need a gamebox,’” Xbox executive Marc Whitten told Wired. And that sums it up in a nutshell. Fuck the gamers. http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2013/05/xbox-one-analysis/
  15. And everything works with it, so you can never turn it off. It must watch you at all times! DO NOT FAP IN THE LIVING ROOM ANYMORE!!!
  16. Oh, I'll drink the haterade: The name is subdued, but not completely lame. What is completely lame is the Windows 8 look, connecting to your FB, and Kinect. I have not been impressed yet.
  17. You don't want a nosey reporter on the floor the day the event opens revealing your big surprise. You want to present it in the best possible light, so it makes sense to have the big unveiling before the event takes place.
  18. "I'm an artist and I should be taken seriously..." LOL

      W&S: He might be more an artist than people think but regardless of if he is or is not booing is very rude.

      I agree the hate for him gets out of control, he's making music. Personally I can't wait for his phase to disappear and be forgotten similar to the Jonas Brothers and Hannah Montana who fight to stay relevant

      People would be annoyed by him either way, but he gets an extra heap of hate because he's actually a huge douche bag in real life too.

  19. http://blog.sfgate.com/sfmoms/2013/05/20/california-teen-invents-device-that-could-charge-cell-phone-in-20-seconds/ At 18, I was in junior college wearing pajamas to school (because I could), not designing the next generation of batteries.
  20. But aren't those on Disney XD, not The Disney Channel?
  21. http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/05/20/entertainment-us-starwars-idUSBRE94J0MU20130520 Seems we have another animated series on the way. This one to air on Disney Channel, so you know it's going to blow goats. I'm sure they will Disney it to death with a tween rebel leader who also sings while going to school with friends. They meet in the hallways and talk about how it feels to be a rebel, making friends along the way, and learning what it means to share. More details about Filoni and others working on this project here: http://www.theforce.net/v3-story/frontLFL_Announces_New_Animated_Series_Star_Wars_Rebels_152021.asp Seems the premiere episode has the potential to be good, but beyond that is questionable.
  22. Damn. Never had an Excel error: "Damage to the file was so extensive that repairs were not possible." I can't even save it to another copy.

      You've never had an Excel error before now? Lucky you.

      I assume you don't have $6million? Cos we have the technology.

      Not an error this bad. I've had Lotus corrupt many times, though. Something about 25000 lines by 75 columns of running database functions Lotus didn't like. This wasn't nearly as big.

  23. I agree with madbassman's assessment of how the common person uses a PC. The point of the original versions of Windows was to organize the computer to be as user friendly as possible. So, when 95 came around, it blew Windows 3.1 out of the water. I was a DOS guy, but even I was impressed by 95. Screw DOS Shell when this is much easier to use and very intuitive. Windows 8? Not so intuitive, and getting away from what Windows was really meant to do for the end user. It's not less complicated.
