Just awful... RIP.

Saw the way the police tried to end the thing...I mean wtf sledgehammers and hoping it breaks through the window and the bus? It took them forever to get in there.

Some said they could have taken out the guy when he was near the door waving at the media.

I shot 400 free throws today, made 335 for 84%. I'd like to be at 87-90%, though I know it's a difficult task. I'm sure there's room for improvement. I'm also kinda tired too.

Ten things the Philippines bus siege police got wrong

[benji]

The hostage taker is allegedly a guy who lost his job and is trying to have it back by getting the attention of the authorities by means of taking a bus and holding all passengers hostage.

I don't think he thought that through.

Just end it already, life is over.

I dread the day I actually see someone wearing a Snuggie. I will have to contemplate if I'd rather goto jail for murder or not keep my word...

[shadowgrin]

I hate reports. I'd rather do research than do reports. Of course there's also reporting involved with research but I hate reports whose sole purpose is to indicate what you do. Bah!

Made 50 or so created parks on Tony Hawk's Underground when I was a kid, but the disc hasn't seemed to work since I got my Xbox modded a few years ago. Decided that I wanted to revisit them, so I bought a new copy of THUG, but it turns out THUG doesn't work on modded Xboxes, and none of the workarounds on the internet have worked. Ugh.

[Martti.]

School starts tomorrow. Damn.

Try playing it on the 360. The xbox site said it's backward compatible.

Yeah, well, I started school a week ago, if that makes you feel any better.

It works on my 360. Lose the parks though.

[JaoSming]

look up if you can put your xbox parks on a USB stick (if you dont have the xbox transfer usb cable or an XSATA) and use them on the 360

ive been using updated NFL 2k5 rosters on the 360 for years....

[Lamrock]

Don't have the transfer cable, and there are no usb ports on the Xbox.

[JaoSming]

well if it is modded you can access it through FTP right?

[Abctest123]

Unbelievably lame. I just got called now from my school saying they had to switch up my schedule because their program that handles the registration stuff screwed up. My schedule went from half decent (I at least had Friday off) to FUBAR. Lame.

[Lamrock]

Didn't know about that feature to be honest. Trying to do it now, but on FlashFXP, my connection keeps getting refused!

Yes, there are. The controller ports.

Do you have the password correct? And the ip?

Xbox 360 controller ports yes, Xbox controller ports, no.

Password's "xbox". When I use my Xbox's set IP (192.168.1.106), I get a refused connection. When I use the IP you can change in the settings (192.168.0.2), I get a timed out connection. I've also deactivated my computer's firewall.

[benji]

No, the Xbox controller ports are USB ports they just have a plastic connector over them. You can get an adapter cable for it on Amazon that you can then plug a USB drive into.

I think the second IP is the one you use I don't remember. You might have to set a port on your router. (Unless you're just connecting them via crossover cable then it should just work automatically.)

It's already September. The fifth month of my unemployment slump.
