@FamiCube64: To me, a wireless card is a wireless card (aside from the obvious differences between G and N, etc). D-Link and Linksys are both well-known brands. D-Link is going to be a bit cheaper, though.

Woo, woo, Open Thread Friday!
@Pheermee: I always loved Link's stoicism and courage, but I can't think of a single supporting character in any Zelda game that wasn't annoying or just kind of...there...
@Joseph Morganelli: Diet Coke! I quit drinking carbonated drinks back in January, but I indulge by one or two on the weekends.
@LouisCameron: I do this via GoogleReader. You can "star" any threads you read and then access them in a special "starred" folder.

Subscriptions are free and they will both e-mail you a copy of each issue and snail-mail one as well, if you wish. Each issue is full of articles about this sort of stuff. I was planning on starting a website, so my…

@Bonsai_halcyon: I just...I mean...
@Bonsai_halcyon: Every character in the game is awesome in the right hands. That being said, I think Metaknight and Mario are probably the easiest for beginners to pick up.
@TehBeardMan: Congrats!
Friday, whoo, whoo!
@silvaofwind: Yeah, I didn't think of the DS games when I posted this, because I only finally got a DS (and Phantom Hourglass) about a week after the post.
I don't quite understand the purpose of these things. I guess it's like auto-Twittering?
