The deep and savage road: Ars reviews Dante's Inferno (1)
on
Ars Technica (628) permalink
Can you imagine your soul laid bare, every sin and broken promise shown in grim detail to the one you love above all others? "You don't know what it was like!" Dante screams, anguished, as his beloved witnesses a particularly heinous act from his past. "Yes, she does," Satan replies. "I have shown her." Dante's Inferno is not for the faint of heart. It's also not exactly true to the source material, using names and ...Shared by LouCypher (310)Comment View comments -
RealPlayer SP Reaches the Mac (1)
on
Technologizer (23) permalink
Last June, I wrote about RealPlayer SP, a cool new version of the venerable, not-universally-beloved media player that shifted its emphasis. Instead of primarily being about playback, it served as a hub for easy conversion of Web video for playback on a bevy of devices–MP3 players like the iPod, smartphones, gaming consoles, and more. At the time, RealPlayer SP was a Windows-only product, but Real said it would bring it to Mac users by the ...Shared by Raoul (28)Comment View comments -

I recently had to babysit my 3 year old nephew. Now, I’m no professional babysitter who knows exactly what kids need and want. But I do know the basics of babysitting. And I knew that I had absolutely nothing in my house that a three year old would like to play with. So, I thought [...]Shared by shawnmor (73)Comment View comments -

Dad-O-Matic (18) permalink
Shortly after the iPad was released Jeff Sass wrote a great blog about iDad. iDad is a great parody on the value of a dad over an iPad and a fun little read. There is another great DAD moment that was captured in a post last night Who Dad published by Doriano “Paisano” Carta. Last year we saw a dad at a Phillies game catch a foul ball, hand it to his daughter who through ...Shared by BuckDaddy (73) C (37)Comment View comments -
feature: Daddy's Home: Ars reviews Bioshock 2 (4)
onThe world of Rapture has a lot in common with Jurassic Park. Both fictional places tried to create a sort of closed paradise, playing with nature to fulfill the needs of their respective creators. Both experiments went horribly wrong, making a point about the will of man. In popular culture, when reach exceeds grasp, people die terrible, action-packed deaths. Bioshock 2 takes place ten years after the events of the first game. I'll keep this ...

The Consumerist (470) permalink
The Daily Beast has published a short profile of Jeremy Selwyn, a web developer in Massachusetts who runs the snack food review website Taquitos.net. Selwyn started the site about ten years ago, and now he has nearly 4.5 thousand different entries on various chips, candies, pretzels, and whatever else can be combined with salt and flavored powder. Naturally I immediately checked out the "Worst Chips Ever" section, which includes an awful lot of sea creature ...Comment View comments
