WoW

Okay, I know World of Warcraft is closed source... but is it possible to make it portable without modifying the game files? (I don't care if it writes to the registry as long as settings aren't saved there)

Wow...this is weird...

Ok, so everyone (or most everyone) knows about javascript. Well, I found this little thing from softpedia, it makes all the images go crazy on google...I can't descirbe it, but it's fun. It works even if you do it on the portableapps site or any other site with images. Try it! Here's the link.

Finding Linux

Submitted by dark_yux on November 19, 2007 - 6:44pm

Does anybody know of a linux distro that can be used inside QEMU and not be slow. (other than darn small linux and slax; p.s: slax inside QEMU is slow and with what I'm doing installing kqemu onto a computer would get me in trouble.)

Safely Remove Hardware

I am only posting this because it seems so relevant to what we do here.

I encountered an article about a program that enhances the Safely Remove Hardware feature. Since that is so critical to a flash drives longevity I thought I would share it here.

Not my software and I am not endorsing it.
