Quinn wrote on Oct 14, 2014, 03:32: Personally, I think the Borderlands games aren't that good multiplayer games. When I played Borderlands 2, I soon realized the multiplayer mode was basically the same as singleplayer, just with extra players competing for frags. You may think "Duh!?" at first, but realize that this game is made -- from scratch! -- as a multiplayer game. I think it's ridiculous that this "multiplayer" game adds no real sense of CO-OPERATION to the gameplay other than revival, trading and the vehicles. I don't know about Borderlands 3, but the games don't even have voice-commands. Even the 10+ year old Wolfenstein multiplayer (before Enemy Territory) had voice-commands... V41! You don't compete for frags, I don't think it even keeps track of kills outside of personal challenges and sure you can compare trophies I guess.. Voice commands?, the game is meant to be played with friends not some random people that you order around via crude pre-recorded messages bound to function keys.. The game is intended to be a mix between a shooter and the Diablo franchise, it's not trying to be what you are looking for.

No idea what you are trying to say iTunes doesn't have GoT and doesn't even offer original Breaking Bad in Germany. iTunes has literally the WORST selection of content of all available choices Ps.: I am from the 80ies You see humor is a tricky thing, especially if the end person doesn't get it. The term Warez.. It's not used much anymore.. last time I heard it used often was the mid to late 90's on IRC channels. Who cares about what iTunes streams, Apple stock went from just under a dollar a stock in the mid to late 90's to over 100 dollars a stock today.. which is why I added the second part of the joke..

Or was it previously supported and needed hacks and this is just the sane version of that? I find it hilarious that you think that it was released for only one USB device.. As someone who deals with a ton of ARM embedded devices, I'm liking some of the additions to this Kernel release.

News Comments > Borderlands 2 Coming to Linux

Odd people say that, I've never had an issue with Seagate drives, but I have a literal pile of dead WD drives from the early 2000s, I suppose I should give them another chance, but SSDs are now the only thing I buy.

I would assume, that since it'll run a Wii emulator, it won't work. The WiiU doesn't use an emulator for Wii game compatibility, it's running a similar hardware architecture as the Wii and is binary compatible. There are some minor hardware/software differences that will break somethings of course..

People play games on boxes hitched to their TVs using gamepads without a mouse and keyboard? I feel like a stranger in a strange land.

News Comments > QUAKE LIVE Going Standalone; Linux and OS X Support Ending

I believe it, it's a electronic hobbyist dream computer.. easy access to IOs, small enough to fit into robotic projects, low power consumption, yet powerful enough to run a light weight linux desktop and videos at 1080p.. I have two, one setup on my electronic work bench, I've been playing with a few projects with it and I can code right on the thing. And another I've setup with a Media center OS. hitched directly to my TV.. it's a better media player than any of my consoles..

Harlequin wrote on Oct 25, 2013, 12:29: Several years ago I dropped Xoops (A PHP based CMS) and switched my community site to DNN (.aspx based CMS). At the time the Xoops people on the forum were all over me stating 'hope you enjoy your site being hacked' and such. How many times I have been hacked since running my site since 2008 under DNN? Zero. How many PHP based sited been compromised? See above plus other security sites. I love being validated. PHP or any server side language is only as secure as the person that writes it. Most exploits are done via form injection, which the Language the server side code is using isn't necessarily the issue. This could allow access to the database.. Since most PHP sites are one of the normal top 5 CMS systems it's easy for people to exploit them. In this case If you read the article the exploit was caused via the git repository that hosted the website source code. it was most likely hacked through some command line git utility not the web interface.
