You could make a hi-res replica of the entire planet!!
And to simplify the process of digitizing the game landscape, you could let the player take pictures and video clips of whereever they are!11!
Okay, we have a couple of thousand years to go, but what if this crazy human species lets off hundreds of nuclear explosions at the same time. Isn't that likely to trigger a geomagnetic reversal? As it seems, such a reversal will probably be the least of our problems in such a situation, but for the sake of completeness I want to ask this question. Would the "geography" of nuclear explosions be of relevance (all in one place vs. distributed over the planet). I presume no-one can tell, huh?
Even as early as 1995 Linux developers were so keen on providing a Window Manager which would look and act like MS Windows 95 just to make it easier for people to switch.. but the ability to select "shutdown" on the "start" menu wasn't exactly what people were missing to move on to Linux.
In the case of GIMP I must say that I am confused each time I see it.. Why is it so hard to have programmable GUI menu structures so that a PhotoShop-compatibility UI becomes feasible? Can somebody do that?:D To be more photoshoppable would make it easier to switch to gimp, and be a lot more useful than window managers that look like some other OS.
Back on topic: Web-based Photoshop? I wished it was.. but it's just a bunch of effects.. Have seen similar Flash apps before. It shouldn't carry the "Photoshop" name.
linus has lost this PR war for once. now give us the #ifdef DESKTOP so that we
can compile our own desktop-optimized kernels and see for ourselves if anything
breaks like hell. the one size fits all principle is stupid is so very much not
taking into account the power of the C preprocessor. the cpp is a tool for
allowing choice. use it. you can even call it #ifdef DESKTOP_UNSUPPORTED if you
want to make it clear, that users are going to go for potentially unsupported
or broken code.
does anyone have a list of sites which are likely to let third parties insert js code?
would myspace, popular for being visually "hackable", or facebook be affected? facebook in particular lets you add 3rd party extensions to your profile. would those extensions be able to add appropriate js code to extract your facebook password from your firefox password manager?
Just use an event-oriented real-time messaging protocol in the backend rather than going for polling RSS or Atom feeds. I have faster response on things I post in my chat window than I have on facebook - that's because facebook tells me things by e-mail (delay factor) and because I'm not in the same continent as the facebook servers (topology factor).
In a decentralized system I get notifications in real-time on my screen, and if the person writing me is in the same city as I, then notification doesn't have to pass facebook.com (or any other centralized system) or do much travel around the globe at all. No surprise it is a lot lightning faster than facebook.
We have a decentralized trust metric system built into http://about.psyc.eu/ which so far we use for surfing profiles along the social network - but we are actually a messaging protocol and looking into using trust metrics for multicast routing (not IP Multicast, more like IRC).
I can see we have an overlap with appleseed in the requirements for the distributed trust model but we are heading different direction in their application which means appleseed on top of our protocol could be a major enhancement and a win on both sides!
We should look into that. Somebody throw some time at me.

Hey.. you can come up with a generic term that we will all adopt.. like.. what about.. Walkman?
lol.. fab.. Does it also vibrate when I meet a love match or a speed meter on the highway? It all has to do with gameplay, right?
It's just a way for THEM to figure out who exactly did the xvid recording that appeared on piratebay 37 minutes after the movie ended.

i just imagine.. should i end up on the microsoft campus, would that put me in the hell level of the game on the iPhone?

from a psychological point of view...
SD = staircase deadline
sounds like an algorhythm.
CFS = completely fair scheduler
sounds like a hopefully self-fulfilling promise, not an algorhythm.
this of course says nothing about the code.. just noticing the detail...

Count me in on this one.
