Why Health Advice on Oprah Could Make You Sick | Newsweek Health | Newsweek.com

Finally, someone in the mainstream media is calling Oprah on regularly endorsing potentially-dangerous pseudo-science. It's sad that someone so gullible is so influential in the world.

Bethesda talks about DRM and Fallout 3 - TechSpot News

Thu, 02 Oct 2008 17:25:24 -0700

Kudos to Bethesda on not including DRM in Fallout 3! I may purchase the more expensive Collector's Edition simply to support this decision.

Edit.... Bethesda included SecuROM, but ONLY in the launcher, and ONLY as a disc check. Launch the game directly (Fallout3.exe, not Fallout3Launcher.exe), and there's no DRM. So I take back about 20% of my "kudos." I still applaud their decision not to adopt draconian DRM methods.

SecuROM

SecuROM sucks, in every manner possible. The fact that it refuses to let games run when ProcessExplorer is running is just another black mark against this commercially-backed MalWare.

Bionic Commando

Website for the upcoming Bionic Commando games. Personally, I'm most excited about Bionic Commando Rearmed, due out some time this month (July), which is supposed to be a scene-for-scene remake of the NES classic, one of my favorite games of all time.

Terrible decision in the Viacom vs. YouTube case. Major thumbs down to Viacaom, too, for not only asking for YuoTube viewer logs, but for its source code, too.

Dark Knight : Review : Rolling Stone

I'm really excited to see this, and reading a glowing review from someone who is evidently known for not pulling his punches when reviewing movies makes me even more excited

FilePlanet: Free PC Games, Downloads, Mods, Demos, Patches &Maps

Fileplanet forces you to get an account (for which they take in your birthdate and zip code) in order to wait 30 minutes in a queue to download a file that's available in ten other places. To make matters worse, their download system uses an ActiveX control, and therefore fails for everyone who is not using Internet Explorer. Big thumbs down for File Planet.

A blog entry that solves a problem related to a bug in a lot or recent nVidia drivers, which has been driving me, and apparently a lot of other people, completely nuts.
