Thanks for posting these links, I really enjoyed watching these, nice to see the old power glove out again, it'll never die. I know the second video isn't an entirely new concept but that stuff really takes a lot of time and effort, then probably more skill than most the bands/artists in the charts at the moment have.

Hackling Lesson #1: Don't fowl in your own nest.

Hm, that's interesting. I'm going to print out that PDF and read it later. I still think parliament says whatever they think people want at that time. In theory though how is a software patent different to a hardware patent? Isn't the theory, concept and code involved in software able to be just as innovative and need of protection as is hardware?

I like to click links...

You have to love the ScreenSaver guys for playing along with it, the best bit was the list of packer programs and then the illegal hacker operating system: "Lunix" *shifty eyes*

Seriously?! I'm so going to do that, you walk in the door to get home, press your key chain... here a beep and know your PC's getting ready for you. Make a cup of tea, head up and it's all waiting for you =) Nothing beats home made innovation!

I think lights, windows and stuff look awesome but they aren't a requirement. They are basically for people who love their machines, just like car guys add gigantic stereo systems and body kits to their car we can do the same to our machines. Then again, lights you buy pre-made from stores and just clip on aren't cool either, home made for the win. You don't have to be a modder to be a pro gamer.

The Wii is my favourite console out there at the modem for the sheer individuality and fun of the wiimote. I'm not a main stream gamer and I play whatever comes out regardless of the media attention it gets but I love the Wii so much. If you have friend and family who can come around and play it enters a whole new realm of entertainment too. I haven't put it down yet. I just wish they would put in a profile system like X-Box's GamerTag system for us to use and abuse. If for no other reason check out the hack with the wiimote in the latest episode (second beta live release.) Try one at the store and see if you like it or not first.

That thing is awesome, I got; 7/10 - "Pretty good; it seems you know your JavaBeans from your fava beans, your slashers from your slashdotters." The easiest way to go about it is just guess..

Thanks for indulging me, makes sense to me.

<random> Here's a question, why is the site style sheet using a blue background and the forum using a white background and why are the margins so mixed around between the two? I have OCD and I'm a web programmer so don't hurt me for asking!I've gone to the extent of using the Greasemonkey extension to Firefox to change them around myself but I was just wondering, can anybody explain the reason the homepage has a blue background and the forums have a white one? </random>

I've never really used real tones on my phone even though it has that option since I could never find anything good for it. I love this idea but I still think the theme tune for the first season was the best so I'm off to go rip the tune from season one, episode one and stick that on my phone. Great idea, good package =)

Question: How much did you have to drink before you did this? It looked horrific when you were shaving your heads... then when you finished, you know, it wasn't all that bad! I kinda like the new trend Britney set o.O;

Excellent point lunex, I never usually run on multi-user systems so this slipped my mind.

If you use the reg files Bigjimbo suggested it'll have the effect of turning on and off the 'show hidden files' option. Just use which registry file you want based upon which action you wish to take. To neaten things up I would suggest putting the .reg files in a folder like C:batch and making neat shortcuts to them on your desktop or quick link toolbar.
