Galactic Civilisation II Posted on August 15, 2006 by Robin Galciv2 is an extremely moddable turn based galactic conquest game. It looks attractive, has a huge user base, has no copy protection, is affordable and frequently releases updates. It now has an expansion pack in the works, you can preorder. Not bad!

Someone leeching your wireless? Posted on August 15, 2006 by Robin This hack is awesome – instead of blocking an unauthorised user over your wireless connection, this guy uses dhcp to assign unkown mac adresses to a different network segment. Then he uses iptables to redirect all the traffic to a squid proxy, which uses mogrify to modify all the image content by turning the images upside down or blurring it. Awesome!
