Weekend Open Bar: YAS YAS YAS
It’s the fucking weekend! It’s the fucking weekend! That means I don’t have to drive into the Frozen Hellscape that is Boston for two fucking days! It also means the Wife is returning from eight days of conferencing in San Francisco! Glory be to the highest, I’m so fucking ready for this weekend. And you should be too! Let’s celebrate together at the Open Bar! Drag a chair up next to me, consume your favorite chemicals, and share what you’re up to the next two days!
Hackers stole hundreds of millions from banks in leet malware heist
On and on and on and off we just unos and o’s! I just wanted to quote El-P, I’m not really sure if that opener fits. Just sort of like, you know. Hackers have stolen “hundreds of millions of dollars” in a totally gnarly malware heist. But it wasn’t noticed at first, because numbers in a computer mainframes are now what constitutes worth in this post-tangible dystopia. And I love it.
PS4 and XB1 install bases are 60% larger than their predecessors were after 15-months

Bendis and Sorrentino reviving ‘Old Man Logan’ for ‘Secret Wars’ series
Old Man Logan. Like, the last thing I enjoyed from Mark Millar. Didn’t really need any additional mythos added after its coda, but apparently we are getting a new tale anyways.
MOAR! ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ Promo Art
..and like pretty much all of the Avenging: Age of Terminator artwork, this new slew of promo artwork centers on a) the team posing like a bunch of dick-faced stooges and b) the Anthony-Stark Fascist-Bot versus Hulk fight. Oh! And a couple cool pieces of The Vision.
‘LEGO Jurassic World’ Game Teaser Trailer: LEGO T-Rex gives no f**ks
Not much to this teaser trailer for LEGO Jurassic World. But I imagine it’s enough to get those of You Folks who Get Excited for LEGO Games to…yeah, get excited and such.
Netflix: We need to raise $1 Billion in debt for original content
Netflix is looking to cut itself out a hunky, chunky, delicious portion of debt pie. The company wants to take on $1 Billion in debt so it can give us a fourth season of House of Cards. On a real rocket. In fucking space.
