  • amarok rocks my world. cedega, not so much.

    i like amaroK. i think cedega is overrated. [more=there’s a lot more posted behind this link, but it’s kinda geeky, so be forewarned…there’s pretty screenshots tho.] the good: amaroK amaroK is a multimedia player (altho, thus far i’ve only used it for music). it works much the same way my ampache-powered page does. you create…

It’s as close to a version of Radiohead minus four of its members as one can imagine, sounding nothing like the stray-idea patchwork expected by some cynics. Indie Electronic,…

  • excuse me, when does the emperor show up & where are the prizes?

    so after spending most of the weekend and most of the day yesterday playing Guild Wars for the in game Dragon Festival, i find myself wondering why i was not getting points for driving well to see fireworks last night, and looking around for Grasps of Insanity to attack. you know you need a break…
