    It looks like a Sony Pony got a hold of the Dreamcast Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamcast

    Seriously, the whole friggen page talks about why the Dreamcast didn't work out, and barely anything about the console itself. Every accomplishment the Dreamcast made, is written in a down-played manner.

    10.6 million sales has been written on that page for the last 10 years, its now 9.13 million. The Genesis sales are also written on that page at 30 million.

    Change it. I mean that guy will change it right back but yeah. Wiki makes me crazy. According to it Oingo Boingo was ska band. All prepunk bands are "Proto punk." It's never that the punk bands were simply influenced by the Kinks for example .Oh no they were a "Proto Punk" band because two or three of there songs were particularly rocking. Clearly the author has never really listened to the Kinks but that does not matter. All music was written with the idea that Punk would come along.

    Here's a link to the changes made between the current version and the one where the changes were made. I started laughing at some of the changes, some people don't have anything productive to do with their lives then make others miserable.

    Its not really making people's lives miserable, its just trashing something that you don't like.

    I've seen this before:

    The first Saint's Row was a GTA clone, though. It was a near straight copy of San Andreas, complete with the same "respect" system and gang member recruitment system.

    "My Life After 44 Years In Prison"


    Otis Johnson was recently released from prison after being locked away for 44 years. He was 25 when his sentence started, and 69 when he was released.

    On the outside, he quickly realized the world was a very different place — downright futuristic compared to the world he left behind back in 1975.

    Very interesting! I wonder how much info about the outside he got while in prison? I can't imagine how different the world must have seemed after that time. I wish him the best, and hope he lives a long life outside of prison.

    Sweat

    Took him long enough ...

    Kobe Bryant Announces This Season Will Be His Last

    http://www.people.com/article/kobe-b...tter_peoplemag

    Los Angeles Lakers star guard Kobe Bryant has announced the end of his NBA career.

    "This season is all I have left to give," Bryant, 37, wrote in a statement posted on The Players Tribune.

    "My heart can take the pounding. My mind can handle the grind. But my body knows it's time to say goodbye."

    In his 20th season with the Lakers, the star is struggling, according to SI.com, averaging under 16 points per game on 31.1 percent shooting. The Lakers are 2–13 and in last place in the Western Conference.




    Bryant's full statement is an emotional ode to the game:

    Dear Basketball,

    From the moment
    I started rolling my dad's tube socks
    And shooting imaginary
    Game-winning shots
    In the Great Western Forum
    I knew one thing was real:


    I fell in love with you.

    A love so deep I gave you my all –
    From my mind & body
    To my spirit & soul


    As a six-year-old boy
    Deeply in love with you
    I never saw the end of the tunnel.
    I only saw myself
    Running out of one.

    And so I ran.
    I ran up and down every court
    After every loose ball for you.
    You asked for my hustle
    I gave you my heart
    Because it came with so much more.

    I played through the sweat and hurt
    Not because challenge called me
    But because YOU called me.
    I did everything for YOU
    Because that's what you do
    When someone makes you feel as
    Alive as you've made me feel.

    You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream
    And I'll always love you for it.
    But I can't love you obsessively for much longer.
    This season is all I have left to give.
    My heart can take the pounding
    My mind can handle the grind
    But my body knows it's time to say goodbye.

    And that's OK.
    I'm ready to let you go.
    I want you to know now
    So we both can savor every moment we have
    left together.
    The good and the bad.
    We have given each other
    All that we have.

    And we both know, no matter what I do next
    I'll always be that kid
    With the rolled up socks
    Garbage can in the corner
    :05 seconds on the clock
    Ball in my hands.
    5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1


    Love you always,
    Kobe

    Tinkering with my DOS machine, fun times.

    I should take a pic of it, it looks quite nice.
