13 year old beats Tetris

[Bodi]

People still play Tetris? Thats news to me.

I do. Free Tetris on the computer. Maybe once a month or so for a couple of games.

This dispels the scientific worry that if Tetris was beaten, the global communications network would crash and the machines would rise up against us.

So far only wireless printers have defeated us.

Recently came across a hack for the popular Galaga game back when it first came out. Kill all but two in Stage 1, then dodge their fire for about 10 to15 minutes. At that point, they'll stop shooting and for the rest of the game enemies won't shoot. Could have saved me quite a few quarters back in the day.

Some interesting speculation whether it was a bug or an intentional cheat put in by someone at Namco.

Agreed.

And Beachistan. I have been in the water almost every day for a couple of months, including the last two hours, in the ocean bodysurfing...

Burrito and a glass of Shiraz on the deck... great end to the day.
