by Maarten Goldstein, Jun 20, 2006 7:49am PDTSo there's a big new World of Warcraft patch coming out today. Excited? Apparently you should be, with all kinds of new features and gameplay changes. Movie: You don't say much my friend, but when you do it's to the point, and I salute you for it.

I've never even talked to this guy before. It was kinda strange and I'd like to embarass him/find out if he's just a fucking loser or what.

I built a new system recently and after a little setback with slipstreaming things got underway decently. Except that when I enable SPDIF playback (either in VLC or MPC) DVDs stutter.
The system is better in all respects than my previous one and it never had this sort of trouble. I've tried swapping PCI slots for my sound card, manually assigning IRQs to avoid conflicts, testing new/old drivers, disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and nothing seems to resolve the issue.
I love computers and all, but this shit is so frustrating. I could have bought an HD-DVD player and a shitload of movies for this price and called it a day. I guess I'm a sucker for trials and tribulations :(

Anyone notice that the left and right trigger buttons are turning a little yellow?
Along with the top hinge of the DS Lite?
I just bought my GF a DS Lite, and mine is only 1 week old, and I noticed some color differences between the two.
I would understand the trigger's getting dirty, but the top hinge of the DS is slightly yellow.

An Operation Flashpoint: Wargames League AAR
This is a Flashpoint AAR of a pretty unique mission we played in Sunday's OFP Shackgoonbattle. In it, four US Special Forces soldiers must sneak or fight their way 4+ kilometers back to friendly territory. The enemy numbers 100+ AI soldiers, along with numerous pieces of light armor and other vehicles, and about 15-20 player-controlled soldiers.
It was a hell of a mission, and I think it makes for a good story. Decide for yourself, of course.
Feedback is always appreciated.

There's also an updated ShackTac/Goon OFP visual roster, you can find it here: http://dslyecxi.com/images/ofp/ofp_shacktac_and_goons.jpg
That only shows the people who have custom faces, for the record.
Anyhow.. enjoy the AAR.

Toys For Bob announced on their website a couple months ago that they want to make a new Star Control game if their publisher, Activision, will let them. They launched a letter-writing campaign, but so far, it hasn't picked up much steam despite some early rumors getting posted to some sites. I'd like to change that.
If you're a Star Control fan, Toys for Bob needs your help to get Activision to authorize a new Star Control game (possibly for the DS, PSP or X-Box Live Arcade) by signing their petition, e-mailing or writing their lead developer so they can show enough fan support to Activision.

So I got this old Windows 98 PC i'm trying to fix for someone. Mouse stopped working, can't change to 256 colors or hi-bit color in display settings. NO idea why. In Device Manager it tells me for the PS2 mouse port that it is disabled because some .VXD file is missing.
WTF. I tried a million things to get the thing back in working order but nothing. If I put the Windows 98 CD in and run setup, will it install a fresh copy of Windows? Or will it just add the files that are apparently missing?
