@Twanzio: I've never updated my Wii. Why bother? It starts, the games play, and I don't buy anything from the Wii Shopping Channel or other frequently-updated items. Read more

@Trygle12's posts considered harmful!: It's not too bad. Games like Wii Sports rip in a minute or so. The killers are games like Brawl, they can take up to 20 minutes to rip. Read more

@MavisPuford: Ooooo. Shiny. Read more

@paschott: Depending on the USB drive it's either equal to or better than a drive load. You really see the benefit with games like Super Smash Bros. Brawl. When I load from the DVD you can actually hear the disc seeking and grinding away when you load a new match. With the HDD it's almost instant. Read more

@milrtime83: Thanks! I had this nagging feeling I was leaving out somebody important and it was WiiHacks. Read more

@n00ge: Not only does he share the link to begin with but he follows up with a fix to the only problem we encountered. You're a couch-surfing Jedi. Read more

@JohanPaladin: It works for me but it's loading realllllly slowly. It's unusual for Make to have any issues with the traffic we throw their way so I'm going to assume it's something between their servers and some of us? Read more

The best reason to follow me is for all the random stuff I post on Twitter that would never make it on my to-do list for Lifehacker proper. Read more

@joacosack: @Mohammad Ali: @firstworldman: The gold-star fairy loves initiative. =) Read more

@UGAdawg: Hmmm interesting idea. I might have to whip one up later. Read more

@dmorrison42: Thanks for taking the time to post the link. I did include an icon in the article though (7th paragraph). Read more

@tsabhira: I'm with you 100% that the superbar needs a legitimate spacer instead of a hack job... that said I've definitely appreciated the icon hack on my setup. I've got 50 odd inches of taskbar if I recall correctly, that really begs for some demarcation of icon groups. Read more

@My IT Guy: I didn't see your earlier tip, but I did see Virgil's. It's still a great tip regardless and I appreciate you contributing to the site. I'll star your account just like I starred Virgil's for a worthwhile contribution. Read more

@tipsymongoose: That's not irrational. Most office coffee will rip your soul out through your ass. I refused to drink the coffee at my old office for just that reason. Read more

@Jes Waldrip: I'm retiring my espresso machine in shame after hearing about your dedication to caffeine consumption. Read more

@Mark 2000: "Bettas are anabantoids, which means they can breathe atmospheric air thanks to a unique organ called the labyrinth. This accounts for their ability to thrive in low-oxygen water conditions that would kill most other fish, such as rice paddies, slow-moving streams, drainage ditches, and large puddles." Read more

@gento.23: I'd actually avoid using one on a small tank. All the ones I've ever used on larger tanks were hard to calibrate and tended to overfeed... which wasn't as big of a deal in a big tank but in a tiny little tank at work will quickly lead to poor water conditions and lots of algae.

@Wolfess: I have three tanks and four very curious cats and none of them have ever gained access to the fish tanks. Read more

@Dean Hamer: I thought about getting into planted tanks but I wasn't sure if talking plants was beyond the scope of a starter tank. I love a well planted tank but it's a bit of a challenge for a new comer. Read more
