Razorback bites Euro dust…

Razorback, the powerhouse of content for most of the eDonkey’s users was shut down by European Cops and its owner arrested. This move was initiated by the MPA, who also claimed that the server provided access to “bomb-building instructions”. Yeah right, MPA! And, if you look hard enough, you’ll find one of those oh-so reclusive WMD’s in there too.

Here’s the Reg article.

Something new, something old…

This is just a teaser post, and the posts to come in the future in this category will contain reviews of games that have been released in the past. See, I don’t have a gaming rig capable of playing the latest games to their full potential, and anyway sites like Gamespot and Gamespy have people who can do these things better than the rest. Say you bought a game 5 years back, and played it for a while and put it away. Now after all this time you think how that game really was, and whether its a good plan to re-install it. This is where I come in. I own a lot of old games, and I play them on a regular basis. This category will contain their reviews and whether they’re worth re-installing, or in some cases, installing fresh. So, wait for a few days, I’ll probably post the first review on Saturday. Till then, stick around.. go on read the article about Dave Perry and the one about GTA.

It’s not exactly nukeuleear science…

First, the word itself. Dubya was making a speech about how India and US should share some information and work together on energy projects or something.. I could’nt get what he was trying to get across, since the guy keeps on pronouncing nuclear as nukuleear. All of you’ve heard it before, and laughed your respective asses off. I still can’t understand how americans can accept this guy as their leader with a straight face. Rather than putting him in charge of important things like military decisions, they should just have him making these ridiculous speeches everywhere. And now that he’s coming here, he’ll start with his usual rants, about how he’s going to curb terrorism with India’s help and some such. Blah, give him a lollipop, stick a “dunce” cap on his head, and leave him out there to entertain the world.

Hail Ubuntu…

Yup, only a couple more days to go, and then I’ll officially jump onto the oh-so-sweet Open Source bandwagon. My Ubuntu v5.10 CD’s should be arriving soon, and at this point of time I’d like to thank one Mark Shuttleworth, for being a supercool millionaire and spending his bucks in promoting the Open Source movement. See, unlike the rest of the guys with a million bucks, who’d rather jump out of hot-air balloons, or ride in them, Mark runs a company called Canonical, which funds Ubuntu, and their free-CD initiative. In case you don’t have yours yet, get it off Ubuntu’s site now!

Opera goes Desi…

Yup its true, Opera, the best damn browser on the planet has announced its Indian presence, and they’ll be moving to Chandigarh, if this post is anything to go by. Welcome Opera ASA, you’ll find a whole lotta Opera users in this country. Unfortunately, some IE users tend to creep in too and spoil all the fun.
