Uh.. nice.. but...
Why not download this RSS tool instead. It has no T-Shirts but it does filter dupes and put the feeds into a SQL database.

Java? That's old-school...
Java is so Web 1.0. Web 3.0 will be Computer Graphics with JavaScript.

Re:Why?!
One problem with Flash (in my opinion) is that there is no full open-source implementation.
Who needs flash? JavaScript is awesome if you don't mind 2 orders of magnitude performance penalties ;-) -

What do you do when it crashes?
I was playing around with DEBUG.COM and ran "OUT 20, AX"...and now it's apparently dead. A lot of things don't seem to work - e.g. "mode 80,20". Even "dir c:" when the current drive is "a:" seems to hang. I wonder how complete the hardware emulation is. Can you run Windows 3.1 on this? How about programs that probe for a joystick?

Re:Hope it doesn't pass away
I haven't deployed it yet, but it does work just fine on my test boxes:

Text search for "Micro-howto: Creating master and slave nodes for clustering". Everything up to the double newline is relevant.
Any particular problem you've run into? -
Re:Just in case..
OK, enough discussion. Here's the code if you care so much. The encoded data can be passed via POST or GET variables safely (unless sha1 weaknesses make the cryptographic security faulty).

Re:Subtitle of the book
I like JS. Taken together with canvas, you can do some pretty interesting things: some toys (including a 3d graphics engine) and some games (see if you can beat the Robots high score). I think this game is probably the most interesting (unfortunately I never got around to implementing the transportation logic, but it's still an amusing demonstration of what's possible).
I got into this originally because I spend a lot of time working on SeaMonkey (and sometimes Firefox / Thunderbird), which has huge amounts of JS. It's always fun to do things in languages which are clearly the wrong choice - like the JS raytracer. -

Re:aaliyah's song "try again"
I haven't played it in years either. I just downloaded the soundtrack from AmigaMusic (free registration apparently). I don't think the Genesis soundtrack is different though.
Since I'm too lazy to set up my Amiga right now... I just found a complete walkthrough movie of the game HERE (you truly can find anything on the internet.. amazing) and the bittorrent link worked fast enough.
Maybe you wanna check that out.

Re:Free Software games
Personally, I can't get into these overly complex games. For a real nostalgia trip, try this implementation of the classic Robots game. It's automatically open source, because it's done in 100% pure JavaScript
:-) Also, here is the original 1962 SpaceWar -- it runs on a PDP-1 emulator implemented as a Java applet. (Source code). Actually, I think the version that was more fun to play was the 1970's Cinematronics arcade game. -
Personally I think it's a pretty cool language
You can do some pretty fun things with it, such as a true 3d engine, a raytracer, games (careful, robots is addicting!), out-of-order CPU simulators, and other stupid things without any plugins - all the user needs is a halfway decent browser.

Re:Give Bibles
You are both right.
While much of the KJV was translated from Greek and Hebrew there is definitely evidence of having translated from a Latin source (Mt 6.34, 1Cor 13, Is 14.12).
A truer example of a Bible translated from the original tongues is the Geneva Bible, for which I have the New Testament available for purposes of comparison.

So, the people that believes in e-paper was wrong
More people use a notebook for reading news in anyplace or they cellphone and not those wear concepts of e-papers...
That makes media focus in the internet market, just as Google does focusing in the mobile market[Spanish]

Before you go rushing in...
This is an absolutely amazing project. Forget the space program; forget SETI--if this thing works as designed, pure science will gain more in 2008 than it did in the previous decade. But, they need your help! The energy output for this thing is just incredible that if an entire beam were to go off-course and hit the wall of the accelerator, there would be a rather sizable explosion. Even smaller errors can add up, damaging the accelerator over time. The LHC@home project lets you donate your spare CPU cycles to help calibrate the machine in order to minimize the risk of accidental wall collisions. Come on, I know there must be some physics geeks out there... show your support! Given the sorry state of pure science research in the USA, this may be your only chance...
Before you go rushing off, a word of warning... LHC@Home is just barely this side of an being an ex-parrot. With the near completion of the magnet system, work come in spurts with considerable time between them. (If you already run BOINC, it's quite suitable as a side project. If you don't already run BOINC, please consider also running one of the other available projects.) -

Re:They'll fix it.
Yes. It requires module insertion. It's nothing terribly special.
It took me over an hour to download, so for the next day or so (or if the writers insist I take it down), I'll be hosting this file at: http://effigies.ath.cx:85/~chris/binfmt-en.pdf -
Re:That's funny, cause I wuz thinking
I was lucky, I actually owned the boxed game when I was a kid. I remember the stiff carboard box from SSI. Here's the spell list. That site also has the full docs if you go to the root URL and search for Phantasie you'll find it.
I forgot how brutal these old RPGs can be. As far as I can tell you can't ressurect your dead characters except with a high level wizard. I've taken to using Vice 64's quick snapshot function after every battle. Now that's cheating! -

And what's more GEM is a PC GUI too, has been since the beginning. Plus it's still under active development (check the desktop build date on this image, for example).

Re:Can't help but ask...
In SeaMonkey, that behavior is easy to do without any extensions. Just change the default cookie policy to only allow session cookies, and then add sites you trust to the list of sites that are allowed to set cookies. Here are my settings - this lets me stay logged in to sites like slashdot, amazon, have my bank remember my state, etc, without a persistent cookie from google.

Re:Buy a copy of windows
If you realy want to report accurate info about the demo scene:
Those sound loops come from FastTracker and FastTracker2 (FT2 is now free !), their file extensions are respectively ".mod" and ".xm".
Those kind of file are called "modules" (.mod => module, .xm => extended module).
The best way to play them now is with the BASS winamp input plugin
If you want to try this out, download modules from all Class Rips by maktone....
To be fair, of course there's a big C64 demo scene with C64 sound loops (.sid files), but you don't actualy find them bundled in PC warez. -

Re:From IRC, the reason:Mika, the guy in question is Matthew C. Kavanagh.
He has one accepted
/. submission which states his e-mail address as mailto:mkavanagh@gmail.com (user profile says 'email not shown publicly'). That address also returns a hit for user Pit on area51.phpbb.com, which has Matthew C./Matt Kavanagh several times in the source in its CVS repository. A guy by the same name posts in the php-dev mailing list under mailto:matthew@teh.ath.cx. This address can again be linked to Pit which states:## MOD Author: Pit < matthew@teh.ath.cx > (Matt Kavanagh) n/a
I hate to post this, but I don't see why Matthew would deserve the anonimity he denied Jani.
