PS3 Hacked?

I guess the main reason for this will be so you can play pirated games. Homebrew is already possible on PS3 and lets not kid ourselves, piracy is always what these things are mostly used for.
You're forgetting one thing - homebrew is possible, but access to the 3d hardware is disabled so that unofficial software can't compete with official games. That, combined with the removal of the ability to even use a 3rd party operating system in the new hardware revisions, is a rather compelling reason to hack the PS3.
Humorously enough, a friend and I stated rolling our own minimal blog software after realizing that a base install of Wordpress is over 6 MB.
It supports comments, multiple posting users, categories, has RSS, will let you theme it (although there is still a bunch of hardcoded HTML generation that we're working to remove for the next major revision) and is less than 300 KB installed.
Well, I guess we're in for a thread about how Firefox is still the (greatest|worst) browser in existence because of its (extensions|javascript performance|standards compliance|support for HTML 5). Looks like I need to go and get some snacks and pull up a recliner.
But this being a web application (like gmail/calendar/docs) it only needs a dom based browser to have fun with (which is "everyone",more or less right?) and supports the most common font format on the planet by default, truetype.ttf
But it also needs Flash. The entire UI is in Flash, which isn't exactly a "Web Standard".
For a.ttf maker that actually uses nothing but Javascript, try the BitfontMaker.

Yep, you'll only have to wait for -12 years to get one.
Whitehart has been updated, not sure about Compact Menu, though, as I don't use that.
Well, I suppose this is gonna get the suddenbreakoutofcommonsense tag.
I just wonder when there will be a +5 Depressing mod for posts like this.
Yes. It's called the Windows port of mplayer.
My guess would be 867-5309.
