Also, if you're not police, you shouldn't be taking evidence of a crime for your own homebrew investigation. Call the cops and wait there until you see them dismantle the skimmer if you're so concerned about others.

There are lots of alternative engines for the games as well. I have to re-research them every time I get an urge to play, so I, too, would be interested in anyone with an opinion one way or another to chime in with their preferred approach

That's a reasonable reaction, but take a look here http://nintendoeverything.com/punch-out-has-a-22-year-old-se... The subject of the interview suggests that there are lots of yet-undiscovered Easter eggs in the game.

Chances are he didn't. Verified dumps are all over the internet. However, a sufficiently motivated individual can create cartridge dumpers with hardware like Arduino and a broken Game Boy (to harvest the socket for convenience). The

Do you have another computer to try that on or perhaps start your browser without add-ons? I use Firefox as my main browser and read nytimes.com every day. I haven't experienced any of those behaviors, nor am I able to replicate them.

I actually agree with most of what you're saying, with the exception of the interpreted implication. I am ~30 years old with the collector's gene. I've always had an interest in collecting things: from backyard rocks to bugs

The confusion/misdirecting part for me is that I would expect to hold down a 'Seek' button to seek through the track. However, as a user, I was just trained to recognize the 'Seek' button as 'Next' or

You're right, it does seek if you press and hold. Thanks for that info. I don't meant to shoot the messenger and this isn't directed at you, but this behavior makes no sense and is not intuitive to anyone who's ever lis

Is iTunes responsible for this trend I'm seeing more of where the Seek Forward/Backward (Fast-Forward/Rewind) symbol is being used in place of 'Next Track' and 'Previous Track?' All other complaints aside,

Another subsonic user here...for a very long time as well. You'd have to have a very good product to get me to switch. I donated years ago to the project and I'm grandfathered into the 'premium' app.
