Apparently it's possible to force Halo to run in widescreen on the original Xbox using a few hex edits. Search for "Halo" on this page http://ps2wide.net/xbox.html

Hey, you're into restoring and maintaining old motherboards, right? Anything in particular that someone interested in the field should know?

I like restoring old Apple hardware. The most common causes of death are electrolytic capacitors, clock batteries, and the environment.
At least in the old Macs, we have what is called an "M-Bomb" AKA a red Maxell brand battery. They don't just leak, but explode with fire. It's always important to remove those.

The niche I'm interested in is CRTs. It looks like capacitors are among the first components to go. No batteries to worry about, though.
I love how the image path in these things is totally analog, and they were designed to be replaceable. In theory you could puzzle out a circuit just by looking at it. I'm so used to CPUs and software lol.

Finally played my very own copy of the Halo 2 campaign, on an original Xbox. What a blast! I'd played it at friend's houses before, but never my very own copy.

Browser crashed and the post editor did not save my work, gg.
I should switch back to drafting all my posts in notepad, but then it's impossible to do stuff like quote boxes now that BBcode is deprecated/broken.

Heh, I wish! The code was C++ so not something BSD'd be likely to use. Here's what he said:
QuoteBTW, I was just looking over some very nice C++ code with Paul yesterday, and we were saying: “Wow, this is really neat code” with utf16 fstreams, etc. and I just got curious to see who actually wrote the code, and it was you
nice job!!!

How do I award discretionary tickets? I see some totals next to usernames... is that just how many are left to hand out? Looks like you've already dispensed two.

If you owned a pencil sharpener in early 20th century Britain, you had a hot little piece of contraband. At the time, the supplies of the red cedar that had historically been used in pencils was getting perilously low, so the government briefly outlawed pencil sharpeners in order to limit waste from overzealous sharpening. Eventually the mechanical pencil and the discovery of incense-cedar's usefulness in making pencils solved this problem, and pencil sharpeners became street legal once a...
