Mohammed Said al-Sahhaf on DVD!

R2 Project has the info …

Someone calling themselves the “Baghdad Broadcasting Corporation” has announced the release of “Comical Ali” on DVD and VHS priced at S9.99. The release is available from www.comicalalidvd.com and what’s important is that 10% of all profits go to the Red Cross for Third World aid.
I have to admit I was […]

PEGI Rating. LOL

Not exactly news anymore, but fun nevertheless. The moralists are marching with the PEGI System (Pan European game information).
Age rating is one thing to slap on a product because is has potential dual use since some games might be unsuitable for young ppl because they are just too complex. What is more troubling is the […]

HULK (PC) is out

Nfo. Still seems like fun. But THREE god damn cds. Sigh. Maybe someone will release a good rip.
Edit: DEVINE got the game down to 45 x 2.88mb. Only movies ripped. Now we’re talking. The CLASS release was nuked for being 59 disks. Not sure if it is flawed in any other way though.
About rips I […]

PPs of the week

As always, the current state of affairs is best described with editorial cartoons.

And since there is a job opening at the white house as a press secretary it’s kind of puzzling why Sahhaf hasn’t applied yet. It would be right up his alley. And he is out of a […]

Matrix sequel pirated online

As reported by the BBC. No shit! And it’s all thanks to BitTorrent.
There is an ongoing discussion over at Slashdot about this as well. I wonder why ppl seem so surprised every time? It is also worth noting that the Matrix Reloaded has made $363.5m so far worldwide. Just imagine what the figure will be […]

Muffins project revisited

I think I am approaching the perfect chocolate muffin. Finally. It has been a long journey indeed. Part of the trick is using Sodium bicarbonate and processed sour milk (or Yoghurt). Vanilla Yoghurt has been a blast so far. Just so you know. This should be filed with the almost-worthless-knowledge department.
What I need to do […]

Smarten up your desktop

With S.N.P. Dashboard and Y’z Toolbar / Shadow / Dock. Highly recommended if you’ve got some cpu cycles to spare. Dashboard is especially interesting since it mimics the appearance of the side bar in Windows Longhorn.
Both Y’z Dock and Dashboard take a stab at bringing information and interactivity closer to the user. Of course with […]

DVD Spree

Couldn’t help myself. The CD-WOW voucher expires in roughly four days so. I’m mainly focusing on movies that I haven’t seen this time as well as SOME collectables just for the fun of it. I feel it’s vital that I continue to collect Red Dwarf packs for instance. They have a great re-run value and […]
