Welcome our newest blogger!
So for a long time it has been just me and Dark posting on this site [More me than dark] However yesterday while I was at my friends house I asked him if he would be interested in writing some stuff on the site and he accepted and now I would like to formally introduce and welcome Nikolatesla to the team! Hopefully bringing some new style and content to the site.
Oh and I would also like to thank his wife for the painting that is hanging on my wall right now [I will upload a picture later ;)]

Xbox 360 Mod Videos On Hold….
Ok so the videos of the xbox 360 mod are on hold right now because of personal issues and the move to the new house. I promise once everything is moved in and setteled I will edit them together and take a disk to someones house with a decent internet connection and upload them.
Oh and the joy of moving I will be downgrading from 20mb internet to 1.5mb. Someone shoot me?
Moving: AGAIN?! WTF?!?!?!?!?!
Ok so the posts will probably drop in quality and or stop going every single day because I am moving. Yes I am moving AGAIN. I move houses more than I move servers.
In any event I am gonna try and keep the posts up but its gonna be a little tricky.
Thanks,

Fail Of The Day: Aussie Police
Ok so here is the deal the Australian Police thought they had taken down a large hacker group called r00t-y0u.org.
Well they didn’t take them all out apparently and a short time after one of the hackers managed to gain access to one of the servers that stores some important data because the police did not properly secure their mysql servers.
A police spokeswoman tried to downplay the breach, stating:
“The [purloined] information consists of directory file names of previously compromised credentials. No information or files exist that have, or could have, been compromised.”
Do you believe that? I don’t…
In any event maybe next time they will make sure they get them all and not just gloat about it on TV!
If you couldn’t tell here this is a DOUBLE FAIL.
- The police for going on TV and saying they took the entire group down when in fact they did not
- The police for not properly securing servers that could have possibly held classified information

Netflix First Impressions
Ok so I bit the bullet and got a 2 week netflix trial account and have been using it for a few days and so far here is my thoughts on it.
The first and only dvd I have gotten so far got here the day after I placed it in my quine and it worked and all so no complaints.
My big thing however was the video streaming. I have watched probably 9 movies in 3 days on my computer. Trying out both the media center extension and the browser based player.
From what I can see the media center based player kind of sucks for me because it seems to have a few bugs such as randomly crashing my computer or rather making it to unstable to use.
The browser plugin on the other hand seems to work great as long as you install the silverlight extension. The quality while no where near HD is still acceptable and watchable.
I will be testing it on the 360 when I get xbox live [courtesy of Dark] and once I send back a dvd and get a couple more in the mail I will write a full review on the process but so far I would recommend netflix if you dont want to use any of those ahem other methods.

Xbox Slim Makes Me Feel All Warm And Fuzzy Inside
Yes people still use the old original xbox and this guy here gets major 1337 points for turning the old mammoth of a console into a sleek sexy media playing machine.
The console lacks a optical drive however that is something that is not a huge deal breaker because the games can be played from the 320gb laptop harddrive.
It does run a bit hot but that is to be expected when you cram it into that small of a space.
