PaddyLong · **Posted:** Wed May 12, 2004 10:10 am

you should check out thebroken.org then ... they've got a few episodes up, it's about hacking... the hacking with ramzi segments are awesome lol and in the third episode he actually has an interview with kevin mitnick

Dan · **Posted:** Wed May 12, 2004 10:34 am

well the broken will live on but techtv i think will not. it is realy tobad, they had some of the best shows around. kevin mitnick was on the screen savers a few times, funny when how he talks about how the U.S. put him in jail for like 4 years with out trial.

oh well, the next best channel is quite possibly the discovery civilization channel, so at least we still have that Smile

PaddyLong, nice signature. Grateful Dead - Hell in a Bucket, I presume.
You listen to any Phish?

The Broken doesn't even teach a lot about hacking. Even when they said they would show how to mod a console, they didn't really help you with it. Ramzi is awesome though, he can barely read.

PaddyLong · **Posted:** Sat May 15, 2004 12:48 am

yeah man climax Very Happy

first one round here to show some respect to Gerry and the Dead 8)

yeah I listen to a bit of Phish

Any one see TSS today? leo came on (i dont think he told any one he was going to tho, since all the poleop where prity shoked about it) and he was talking about how firday is the last call for help and they puled the plug on the show while he was talking. very odd....

Amailer · **Posted:** Wed May 19, 2004 9:06 pm

Dan · **Posted:** Wed May 19, 2004 9:22 pm

No, he was just saying good bye. And that he whould sing any fan stuff if poleop whonted. G4 was just being assholes and whould not let him say goodbye i think.
