Stargate SG-1 is now in its 10th season and has already been renewed for an 11th. Next month you’ll be able to buy seasons 1 through 8 in a box set – that’s 174 hour-long episodes – for $49.95. Yes, $49.95. That is CRAZY cheap. In fact, I’m not even sure that’s right. But they…

Wow. When did the demoscene go cross-platform? Ante Dominum has been ported to Windows, Linux, and OSX. It’s probably the greatest 64k demo I’ve ever seen ever. Ever! It’s got a catchy little soundtrack and the particle effects are some of the best I’ve seen. It’ll download in half a second and it takes less…

We’ve all seen ‘secret’ safes that look like common household objects. A shaving cream can that unscrews to reveal a storage space inside, for example, or the ol’ hollowed-out book trick. How about some fake skid-marked underpants? I wish I had thought of this first.

The “customer review” for this five foot speaker cable from Monster Cable makes me wonder. Whs the reviewer crying because the sound was SO AWESOME or because he just realized that he spent $1250 on five feet of goddamn speaker cable?

Last night on Southpark Comedy Central caved to terrorists by refusing to allow Mohammed to appear on the show. Of course he was already on it five years ago, but that was before there were international riots. It made me irritated enough to waste time writing a letter to spineless Comedy Central! And I never…

Rube Goldberg has been beaten at his own game by Japanese nerds! I wish I was a Japanese nerd. 🙁

This is a good story. Last night we were all excited to play old-school Gauntlet over Xbox Live with our friends Stacy and Steve. They had just gotten their 360 up and running and we were ready to go. So Tammy puts on the Xbox headset and it’s not working. Turns out one of our…

Up until now I was pretty indifferent on the Blu-Ray/HD-DVD battle. Today I’m joining the Blu-Ray fans. The HD-DVD format tops out at 1080i, while Blu-Ray has native support for 1080p/60! I had no idea! And I’m pretty amazed that nobody’s made a bigger deal about this. With a much higher resolution than HD-DVD and…

Bejeweled 2 is a simple game, but it’s a hard game to be really good at. There are times when I think I like it even more than Tetris, and that’s saying a lot. I’ve been playing in Classic mode and I always have a hell of a time breaking past level 11 before running…
