From article: A T.J. Maxx security guard told police she saw a woman stuff six designer Dooney & Bourke purses into her pants Tuesday morning and walk out of the store.

How the hell do you fit six purses in your pants?!

Not all things that output with a .bin format necessarily output a .cue file to go with it, so that isn't a big problem, RTFM still applies however and understanding how .bin and .cue files isn't any harder than a quick wikipedia search will explain.

Edit - If you have a specific file format you want it to output though you might want to mention a freeware/shareware program that does it in the instructions, not that I have checked if you have done so, but just a heads up.

Shale · « **Reply #481 on:** January 19, 2009, 04:12:03 PM »

It only got to IotD level when he copied the .bin file and renamed it .cue, hoping that that would make it work.

Grefter · « **Reply #482 on:** January 19, 2009, 09:17:33 PM »

Yeah really that is laughable, he should have looked up what the different file types meant.

The hell? 00 isn't for best story? /Kanon

mia~ · « **Reply #487 on:** January 25, 2009, 05:55:45 PM »

Oh, and R2 is currently winning the best storyline category with 8 votes, Kaiba and Spice+Wolf tied for 2nd with 5 each.

Wow what the fuck is with that list.

//edit: I mean I don't watch THAT much anime but even I can tell that some of the nominations are retarded.

8 votes? 5 votes? Such a statistically significant scale...

Is it really -that- surprising that there are 8 people on ANIMESUKI that think Code Geass R2 is the best thing since sliced bread?

mia~ · « **Reply #490 on:** January 25, 2009, 10:52:53 PM »

Well, voting began earlier today!
And no, it's not that surprising, but it doesn't make them not-idiots. :v

It just makes them not worth really caring about. 2/10 would not click again.

Shamelessly ripped from Penny Arcade, but fuck this shit is retarded.

Mother: toy says 'Islam is the light' ......
The Nintendo game has an "E" rating, which means it's suitable for any age.

Because Islam existing is R rated am I right? It is something we should deny existing to our youth before it infects their precious little minds!

Jones said she's angry this is the second toy she's had to take from her children.

"Not just my daughters' toys, but we have a son too," said Jones. "Now I feel like I need to listen to all of his little toys to make sure they're not saying it."

DAMN YOU NINTENDO I HAVE TO SUPERVISE MY CHILDREN. LOOK AT WHAT YOU ARE DOING. NOW I MIGHT ACTUALLY HAVE TO RAISE THEM MYSELF. IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT? MORE PEOPLE LIKE ME???!?

Quote

Nintendo's representatives said the game is manufactured by a third party, so they're not responsible for the content, but the game's packaging clearly states the game is licensed by Nintendo.

Breaking news, we don't know how to research how business fucking works. Nintendo charge these chumps a premium to even be able to put dick out on their systems. They license the right to PUBLISH the shit, nothing fucking else.

Fail reporting.

Edit - And of course there is the other link which is http://urbanlegends.about.com/b/2008/10/10/talking-doll-allegedly-says-islam-is-the-light.htm which just says that isn't what the stuff says, but that isn't as fun.

Publishers need to meet specific guidelines for Nintendo to put their seal on a game, so it's a fair point. Of course, talking to the manufacturer would make more sense, but we're talking about anti-Muslim paranoiacs here, so we should content ourselves that they're not drooling (probably; drool causes typos).
