New pilot emerging...

Thank goodness for that tag ‘cause the search continues for The Real Shark Humper.

There are millions of stories in the Naked Front Range... this is a profoundly sad sort of one.

Don’t discount the addict personality... Obsession fulfilled while clearly harming your life is addiction, no doubt about that. What was the void in his soul? Is he not in intense psychotherapy and 12-step/recovery groups?…

After I’ve blown out all of my lower joints, my much-improved cardiovascular performance will help w/ pushing my wheelchair into my 90s... and beyond.

Hahaha, after I saw the middle initial bit, yes indeed, that looks like a Magliozzi creation. I like to think they were Ray’s creation ‘cause Tom was such a genius in all other respects.

Love dem Dutch. If I get a do-over, I’d like to be born in Holland. And named ‘Erasmus.’ Can’t even imagine this kind of clowning in the US, not since Ali-Cosell anyway.

It’s possible as well that some pentagon brass were the Commander-in-Chief was itching to use [his] new toy and saw this as a good opportunity.

Dilution of brand is a basis for copyright owner to pursue a claim, but squatting in an open and notorious fashion is only a way to gain land so far as I know.

Your logic sounds good though. I would imagine they’d grant license to those who aren’t threatening and then go after the the remainder.

Nice insight. You, friend, play an impressive amount of games. (Curious: is this the Old Man Light from the middle of O hi O?)

USA or BBC America or whomever should take a chance on picking some real fun guys. Jalopnik writers, Ken Block or someone similarly funky, then maybe a mainstream journo or host... gotta be someone among the NYT/LAT/Wash Post/NPR/etc. crowd who has the charisma to glue some personalities together.

Isn’t it funny how these things take steps backwards? Way back on Ye Olde Xboxe, you could play the Wolfenstein game online and it would allow you to change your alias at anytime, even during a match. Say whaaaat??? Yeah, I just happened to be so lucky as to come to PSN late when my XBL/Steam names were already…

Heh, OK.

No, you don’t pull anything back to the PS4—that’s pre-update 4.5 talk right there. Crazy talk.

Let’s take a moment and be real: the whole concept of not being able to play games directly from your external drive but instead swapping them to the onboard drive was silly, like a last-gen concept.

Now you load the…

Yes. It’s a slap in the face to digital consumers. Why certain regional corporations are prone to act haughty and blame their users for their own discontent is a closely-guarded ancient secret.

Maybe they gather the bitterness and sell it as canned tears in vending machines.

Totally true. Most every OS since the beginning of time has had a distinguished name for you with other aliases layered on top of it. I’m pretty damn sure my XBL ID (and my PSN for that matter) correspond to User145588372 or whatever, so changing the display name—I can almost guarantee—is a no-brainer.

I was noting the other day the ridiculously poor quality of PSN usernames compared to XBL when someone said “yeah man, xXyoloSWAGGINSyourMOM420MLGnoSCOPEZXx has never been able to change his name which accounts for at least half of the terrible handles.”

Had it for a few weeks: no, still laggy. Maybe the production release will tweak further. Plus side though: external HDD support is awesome.
