I have a feeling they'll provide the source to their UI and networking stuff. But the WMV DRM decoding will remain proprietary.
This way other content providers can customize the Roku to work with their service (and plug in their own DRM module).
Hopefully the device can be improved greatly. I had one for a week. Maybe it was just too simple, but I wasn't impressed. I sold it to a friend. I'll just get an Xbox 360 for my Netflix streaming.

So you went with WordPress which has this in their ToS:
"By submitting Content to Automattic for inclusion on your Website, you grant Automattic a world-wide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, modify, adapt and publish the Content solely for the purpose of displaying, distributing and promoting your blog."
Which is the same thing Google is saying. Every blog/photo/user-created-content service out there has to have that language in their ToS, else they couldn't serve your data. The only way around it is to host the data on your own server.
I thought the description "Yellow Castle" sounded like a set I owned when I was a kid. Looking at the picture; the Galaxy Explorer was the first Lego set I ever had.
FF13 was not being developed directly on the PS3 hardware. It was instead being written to run on the Crystal Engine, which was being programmed to run on the PS3. It is just now the Crystal Engine has been ported to the 360 so FF13 can follow.
Sounds like the PS3 will still be the system to play it on if one owns both.
Taco seems to make the same mistake that I hear other people saying. Guillermo Del Toro, was also largely responsible for the first Hellboy movie; writing the screenplay and directing.
I do think he was given much more free reign on this one, and is reflected in the things Taco commented about.
The PS3 has an officially licensed DivX decoder, along with support for generic MPEG4 (think Xvid) video.
It can play those files from over the network via a UPnP server, from a USB hard drive, various memory cards (if your PS3 is so equipped), or from a optical disc.
The rules of the road say that you should check that the car is in drive before setting out on your trip. The older version of GCC used to put the car into drive for you. But the new version lets you leave it in reverse if you don't check making you exit out the rear wall of your garage.
That probably explains it. From the corner of my eye it is almost like a flickering. I don't see the flicker straight on, but any head movement just makes me feel awful. I've seen DLP TVs on the showroom floor that say "multi-segment" or "3x color wheel". They still bother me. Although I do remember now one DLP projector which I had a hard time believing was DLP because I could watch it without feeling ill. It was a 3-chip from Runco.
This isn't on my system (I have a plasma and an LCD). It is with any DLP I've been around. Sound or no. I can tell a DLP display as soon as I glance at it (especially from the corner of my eye). There is just something I find perceptually wrong with the way these displays look.
Does anyone else feel like they are going to be sick or at least get a huge headache when looking at DLP displays?
If I sit perfectly still it's OK. But even little movements cause my eyes hurt. Turning my head to talk to the person next to me is likely to cause me to puke into their lap.
I don't suffer from motion sickness or anything like that. It is just these displays, front or rear projection don't seem to form a stable picture to my eyes.
Off topic, but I want to ask someone... I assume you own the release version of the game. I played the demo and just got pissed at the camera controls. They are mirrored from what I'm used. In the actual release, can the camera pan be configured to be inverted?
If a person liked season 1 of Stargate: SG1 it would be a good idea to recommend season 2 to them. Goes for sequels too. So yeah, titles are needed a little bit.

I had a 286 laptop with MS-DOS in ROM.
OK, it's up.

I'm sure I saw the Torque logo on the Rocketmen game on the PS3.
The PS3 version will have Trophies, same thing.

And has already been covered on /. over a year ago. Hell, it's been used to solve a crime in a popular police drama, so it is officially old news.
Plus they were zooming out. I'm sure they only had the detail in that area. It was probably impossible to zoom into any other portion of the image.
The A is also missing from the hex "key".
Below the hex area are three symbols, the last two match the F and C of the hex key. But the 'S' isn't see anywhere else on the page.

Another big problem was the stop-ship on their Quad-Core Opterons in January. They are only now becoming available again.
Firefox and Acrobat Reader are distributed as signed executables. Plus, what's this? ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.13/KEY Oh, look Firefox has a PGP key.
Really, OOo should sign their executables.

Well, you don't need razors, because beards don't grow in space.

I can see the blur on some LCDs; it doesn't bother me it just looks like motion blur.
Of all the display technologies I've seen I prefer the "look" of plasma or good ol' CRT. They seem the most natural.

I think it was the World Wide Web that killed Gopher.
