I can’t tell if it’s intentionally them avoiding the issue, or if they are truly that stupid that they don’t understand the hate they are getting, but Photobucket is seriously not actually saying anything on what people are giving them hell for. To capitalize on this, they posted this link on their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/photobucket/photos/a.10150566349440632.667777.52045600631/10158873616505632/?type=3&permPage=1 …

The Internet Reacts To Photobucket’s Stupidity
As we discussed the other day and as you probably well know by now if you’re even reading this, Photobucket eliminated hotlinking on all but their most expensive account forms, basically ruining untold numbers of blogs and other websites across the web, and the internet, needless to say, isn’t taking kindly to this. Now, that …

What’s Coming For July 2017 On Xadara
I thought updating readers to plans for the upcoming month would be a good idea, and so, here we go! This will probably become a regular thing, if only to fill article space, so, eh, take it for what it is. First up, we have a return to sharing some old videos about various subjects …

Photobucket Just Screwed Over The Blogging Community
The long-lived image hosting website Photobucket just gave a big middle finger to the blogging community in the form of a change to their terms of use which disables any form of hotlinking on any account save for the quite expensive top tier account type: the “Plus 500 Plan” Let me back up a bit, …

Who Are The “Classic” Nintendo Consoles Really For?
When both the NES Classic Edition and now the SNES Classic Edition were announced, a common comment from many in the gaming scene were that these mini-consoles were pointless, or some kind of similar lack of understanding why people are fascinated by them. This stems from a misconception of the very target demographic these machines …

July 2017 Xbox Live Games With Gold
Microsoft was super late on on getting out the video for July’s Games With Gold. Not just were they late on it, but they also seem to have been at quite a rush on this as the game selection seems lacking – almost as if Microsoft had gotten so wrapped up in E3 they had …

The SNES Classic Edition Game List
We might as well take a look at the game list for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System Classic console that’s being released this September; after all, a game system is defined by its games, and the Super Nintendo had an amazing library, to say the least. I won’t beat around the bush with this – …

We Knew It Was Coming: The SNES Classic Edition
It’s funny, I was just talking to some friends the other day, us all discussing what games we would want to see on a hypothetical SNES Classic Edition console, and what does Nintendo do today but announce it coming, with 21 games. Sure, not nearly as many as the NES Classic Edition had at 30 …

As Expected, Sony Was Pushing Virtual Reality Heavily At This Years E3
As the title suggests, Sony was pushing very heavily it’s PlayStation VR platform this year at E3, with several “new” games being demonstrated with the technology. I say new, but in many cases the games being presented are old titles with new VR updates – Superhot and (uhg) Skyrim are the most blatant examples, with …

Call Of Duty: WWII – The E3 Reveal And Interview
Getting back to E3 coverage (a week and a half late, mind you) I have more footage to share of the new Call of Duty game, simply titled “Call of Duty: WWII.” It looks like it will be a fine enough game, and certainly will go back to CoD’s roots, but I have seen some …

SpaceX Successfully Launches BulgariaSat-1 And Re-flies Another Falcon 9 1st Stage
Same stuff, different day at SpaceX today with yet another launch from Pad 39A, this time of Bulgaria’s 1st satellite, BulgariaSat 1, to geosynchronous orbit. Yep, another communications satellite, but as mentioned, this is the 1st satellite made by Bulgaria, so that’s special: I hope it works out well for them and their needs! The …

Enjoy The Silence
A week ago, there were somewhere around 4 posts a day, as a side effect of E3 going on. Now, a week later, it’s been far more quiet. The reason behind it is quite simple: I’ve been taking some time for myself, trying to enjoy gaming, and just relax. E3 proved this year to be, …

Next Years 2K Sports Titles To Not Be Released On The Last Generation Of Game Consoles
This past week 2K Games did their announcement of the first of their sports games for this next year: WWE 2K18. The primary thing from the announcement (at least that I see, hell it could have been the main point for all I know) was simply that Seth Rollins would be on the cover (because, …

The Articles That Triberr Missed – The GIF Format And Some E3 Coverage
So, shortly after my last articles on the subject. Triberr decided to push one of the missing articles up: I figured it would throw the other article up there as well, but it never did – not only that, thanks to the 14 article import per week limit, and me not knowing exactly where I …
