Hak.5 gets WIRED

April 26, 2006

First off I want to thank everyone that made the transition to the new IRC server, irc.hak5.org, successful. And thanks to everyone that’s helped us “beta test” the game server and offered suggestions. I’m sure over the coming months we’ll get to all the games that have been suggested (with the exception of multi-player-minesweeper ;))

And now the awesome big news. Hak.5 is being featured in the May issue of Wired Magazine! That rocks! Check us out on page 128 where we’re called “An appealing cast of übergeeks” with a “Must See!” vodcast. Thanks Wired!

Episode 10 production is going good, yet slow. Maybe it’s the senioritis kicking in since we’re working on the season finale. Last weekend we got rained out, hindering our ability to shoot the scheduled segment. So we got some inspiration and decided to shoot this little Firefox ad with Evil Server. IRC-goers can find the secret URL to the B-Roll on that ;).

We’re in Toronto Thursday - Sunday this week shooting some Hak.5 stuff and doing a few segments for upcoming episodes of Call for Help. Kick me an email if your in town and down for a Rickard’s Red :).

Trüsten Der Technölusten,
–Darren

    I think there might be somethign up with the xvid version of EvilServerInterupted. My download crashees out right in media player, and a few seconds in via VLC player. :/
    mp4 one works fine though

    Point of order! (Du kriegst die Rote Karte!) Bad translation for ‘Trust your Technolust’. I would be more inclined to make it a German command as ‘Vertraut Tecknolust!’ but my German is a bit rusty (peinlich). What do the other German speakers think?

    I haven’t touched the German language since my first year of college, but from what I do recall I’d go with Karen’s suggustion. Maybe market shirts for the German audiance? ^_~
