Ask Bitsmack

Here’s a <a href=https://www.bitsmack.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=408>comic.</a> So this week is pretty busy. Our company is holding a training class for resellers and users all week. Every night we take them out for dinner and drinks. Last night we went to a pub and I had to try Boddington’s just because it was mentioned in a Friends episode. Everyone else was drinking Guiness so I would have been made fun if I had Bud Light or something. I’m looking forward to this week being over so I can have my evenings free again. Seacrest out.

Slow and Steady

BitTorrent is a cool program for downloading but it’s not without <a href=https://www.bitsmack.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=406>drawbacks.</a> So last night was the first of the last three episodes of Friends. Unfortuantely, the series last funny season ended about four to five years ago. The real tragedy is Angel getting cancelled after this season. If you’ve never seen the show it is written really well and always has unexpected twists and turns. I could go into a big tirade about how few good shows are on TV now but instead I’m just going to go to bed and dream about a world without “reality television.” Continue reading "Slow and Steady"

Son of Suckiness

Expensive? Pointless? <a href=https://www.bitsmack.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=403>It</a> meets all of K-Dog’s criteria! Some photos of the N-Gage redesign are circling around the internet. It is rumored to have a bigger screen, better button layout and a camera. I for one applaud Nokia for making all the people that bought an N-Gage feel even stupider than they already did. What do you guys think? What two gadgets would you like to see combined into one? UPDATE: According to <a href=http://www.gamespot.com/news/2004/04/13/news_6093447.html>Gamespot,</a> Nokia just announced the redesigned N-Gage. It doesn’t have a camera and they took out the MP3 and FM radio functions. You don’t have to talk into the side anymore and you don’t have to remove the battery to change games. All this for $99 with service plan. I can’t tell if this is the same N-Gage I saw pictures of. Maybe I shouldn’t base my comic on rumors anymore. Continue reading "Son of Suckiness"

Bank Error in Your Favor

I need <a href=https://www.bitsmack.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=399>a new game.</a> And by “need” I mean “not required to sustain life”. I haven’t bought a game in about a month. When that happens I start to get the shakes. I surf Gamestop and EB at work and browse the same stores after work. I think I can hold out longer. I want to go through all my games and play each one at least once. However, I don’t even have all my systems hooked up yet and the PS2 has become the dedicated DDR machine. I’ll have to get a couch for the basement before I can play Ratchet and Clank again. Continue reading "Bank Error in Your Favor"

Bitsmackers 3.0

<a href=https://www.bitsmack.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=394>3.0?</a> Ok, maybe more like 2.1. After finally switching to the eMac for my main machine, Goz convinced me to switch to Flash for my comic. I mean, if it’s good enough for Joe & Benji or whatever those guys names are, it must be good enough for me. I am still getting the hang of it and it’s hard because I am such a perfectionist. I think these new characters kinda look like zombies and I completely forgot to give K-Dog glasses. The other advantage to switching to Flash is that eventually I’ll be able to do a Bitsmack cartoon. What do you guys think of the comic? Is it worse or better than before? Continue reading "Bitsmackers 3.0"

Recap

Like a ninja stalking you on your way home from the prom, <a href=https://www.bitsmack.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=389>comics are back!</a> I finally got XP reinstalled on my machine and it is running so much better. The comics should be back to their regular schedule. With Brad and Will moving in in a couple months there should be plenty of Bitsmacker/Devryguyz hi-jinks. Personally hi is my favorite kind of jink. Continue reading "Recap"

The Bitsmack Effect – Part 2

There you go, one week of <a href=https://www.bitsmack.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=381>comics.</a> Inspiration Last weekend I got to see Brad from <a href=http://www.devryguyz.com>DevryGuyz</a> beat Megaman X in 1 hour 30 min. Not only does he beat the game but he gets every single weapon, item and secret. It was amazing. So when I got home I looked for a game I could beat. I found Ducktales for the NES. The first couple times I played I died a lot, but now I can beat it on normal in 21 min. I’m not done yet though because I know of a couple of ways I can cutoff some time, and I did die twice. Is there any game you can beat over and over again? Post about it. Continue reading "The Bitsmack Effect – Part 2"
