I’ve mended something again! Also, unexpected uses for a potholder.

Posted on May 6, 2012 by baudattitude

As I mentioned about a month ago, my PS3 stopped reading discs.  This was vexing for a couple of reasons, but primarily because it was a launch 60GB PS3 with PS2 backwards compatibility. Sony wants $150 to fix these, and … Continue reading →

Sony Hell

Posted on April 7, 2012 by baudattitude

I have had a couple of Sony-related annoyances in the last week, and what good is the Internet if you can’t use it to rage impotently about things of incredibly minor import in the grand scheme of things? First, they … Continue reading →

Better than the Movie

Posted on April 1, 2012 by baudattitude

Last year’s Green Lantern movie was a bit of a confusing mess, trying to mash the highlights of a character with 50 years of backstory into 2 hours and failing miserably in the process. Granted, Green Lantern is one of … Continue reading →

Posted on September 17, 2010 by baudattitude

Posted on September 16, 2010 by baudattitude

I seem to have a yearly ritual going where I play through a game from the Prince of Persia series.  2008 was Sands of Time, 2009 was, uh, the 2008 “Prince of Persia”, and 2010 is Prince of Persia: The … Continue reading →

So, I’ve been coming to terms with the news that a family member passed away recently.  It wasn’t entirely unexpected – she was 93 years old and had been having a pretty bad summer of things – but it’s still … Continue reading →

Posted on October 4, 2009 by baudattitude

So, back in the 90s, I didn’t really get in to any of Nintendo’s big franchise games.  I tried a bit during the N64 years – I bought the Mario game and the Zelda game – but, to be perfectly … Continue reading →
