Comment NFTs are the new Pokemon cards (Score 1) 93

As I understand it (correct me if I'm wrong) You buy random packs in hopes of getting something good. Also like random packs of Pokemon cards most are likely junk, but you can buy premium packs of cards which have a higher chance of including a good card. Then if you do get a good card, you sell it to someone else, or hang it around your neck when you go to your next wrestling match. :P

I'm sure your parents were busy when you were growing up, yet they still made time to feed you, cloth you, and teach you how to use simple technology. Your parents taught you how to use a toilet, and you can't make time to help them? Image if they took the same model as you are now? We don't have time to potty train our kid, lets outsource it to some strangers.

Left 4 Dead Bug Patched Quickly, EVE Exploit Takes 4 Years 157

Earlier this week, news surfaced that some savvy modders of Valve's Left 4 Dead were able to find a way to enable console commands (meant for the PC version) in the Xbox 360 version of the game. This allowed players to increase the size of their character models to ridiculous proportions, spawn unlimited weapons for themselves (or unlimited enemies for other, unsuspecting players), and go around the map deleting objects as they saw fit. A video posted on YouTube showed how to enable the commands. Valve reacted swiftly to the issues, releasing a patch to disable access to the commands a few days later. Several readers have pointed out another exploit-related story which broke recently; in EVE Online, a bug that was reported and went un-patched for four years has recently come to light, apparently responsible for the fraudulent creation of trillions of ISK, the game's currency. An anonymous reader says that (illegitimate) sales of ISK between players and farmers run on the order of $35 per 450 million ISK.
