Magic Online 3.0 Review

Magic: The Gathering and Me, a Story

Mmm… The smell of virginity (cheetos, tears and lube). It’s no secret, but perhaps an untold truth, that I’ve always had a secret love for Magic: the Gathering, or, the idea of it anyway. Unfortunately I none of my friends were ever nerdy enough to want to play, ENTER: Magic Online.

Left 4 Dead Demo: OMG ZOMBIES!

So I preordered Left 4 Dead about 2 weeks ago and today I got the demo download offer from Steam. Let me tell you right now, this is the GOTY. Valve once again shows us that you don’t have to reinvent the wheel to make a good game; you just need to make a really badass wheel.

Solution: PHP / WordPress won’t send email on Debian

I got this issue when I tried to send email on my VPS using PHP, the app would report everything sent successfully, but nothing came. This fix is for Debian, but may work with any Debian-based Linux OS that uses the apt-get package manager, like Ubuntu.

Solution: Can’t browse internet while utorrent is open (torrents)

So you open a torrent and it starts to download just fine but when to switch to your web browser you can’t get to any websites. It happens in Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, doesn’t matter. Well the fix is easy and a little ironic because it’s caused by Nod32.

-bash: ./hldsupdatetool.bin: No such file or directory when trying to install SRCDS (Source Dedicated Server)

If you’re running a 64bit OS and you try to install SRCDS (Source Dedicated Server) and you don’t have the right packages installed you’ll get the following error “-bash: ./hldsupdatetool.bin: No such file or directory”. The problem is you don’t have 32bit libraries installed, which are required by the technological luddites at ValvE.

Team Fortress 2 Steam: engine error: no permissions to run tf

So you just bought Team Fortress 2 through Steam and you’re ready to go, but wait! When you try to launch the game you get the following error: Engine Error: No permissions to run tf.

Ghosts I-IV, I bought it, what?

So yeah, the very minute I heard that a major band who I respected was officially ditching the major record labels and putting out an entire album solely on their own, unlike Radiohead who still rely on the major labels for B&M physical CD sales, I bought it, sight unseen. The new entirely instrumental album from Nine Inch Nails consists of thirty-six tracks in four nine track albums, ergo Ghosts I-IV. It can be had as a digital download for $5 in either losses or super-high quality 320kbps LAME encoded MP3s, including a 40 page PDF of album art and both standard and widescreen wallpapers of each.
