    Why would the moron not center it in the middle of the controller and run it through THE HOLE ALREADY MADE for the screen.

    Then it would would have actually LOOKED GOOD and not like the Dreamcast had some cancerous tumor growing on the side of it.

    Would've looked better if he had centered it.

    On another note, anybody know what those little figures in the background are called?

    @Icipher: it would have been awesome if he made a a larger controller that fit the iPhone inside it instead of the little LCD.

    This makes me sad =(

    What a waste of a perfectly good Dreamcast controller.

    I'd guess he was thinking he didn't want to play his Dreamcast anymore. Or that he wanted a shitty, half-assed iphone dock. Most likely both, though.

    Maybe he did it as a contrast between games with good controls and games with bad controls.

    @Setharchy: It's not an insult to say that tilt is a less than accurate way to control a game. Otherwise people wouldn't always be asking for a controller attachment for the iPhone.

    I don't think this even qualifies as a mod. He just stuck a cable into a hole in the controller case.

    I've been pretty happy with the 5-6 (6-cell battery) hours I get from my MSI Wind netbook. It gets me through most situations without needing to plug-in.

    I get more than 20 hours of battery life from my laptop. Sure, I have to lug around a car battery, but it's a small price to pay.

    I had a much simpler solution with my wasp problem. I just sprayed them through the screen door whenever they came near. Then again, they were trying to start a nest _in_ my screen door. See, I have one of those storm doors where the screen and storm window both slide down into the bottom half of the door, and with the storm window retracted, there was about a 1/4" gap between the screen frame and the face of the door where the little buggers could crawl up into the upper cavity of the door. After about a week of very careful exits/entrances, heavily supplemented with carefully-targetted shots of bug-killer, they stopped showing up. And once it got nice and cold out, and I was certain they weren't coming back, I set about popping the chunks of nest out with a screwdriver.

    I say fill the container with water and waterboard the bastards until they give up the location of their other hive cells.

    @Rabid Penguin: That's not how waterboarding works. You'd need a bunch of really tiny restraints and maybe an eyedropper. You can't waterboard something that's already drowned.
