Oh cool. Thanks, I guess XM must be doing "submarine advertising" of their products nowadays, because I totally missed that. They'd probably get a leg up on Sirius if they could bribe the CRTC to let it in.
I'm not up on the tech, but aren't satellite radios fairly big, and requiring a high-power aerial? We don't have them in Canada, but I saw a couple of XM units when I visited the States and they didn't look iPod-sized.
Good riddance to bad rubbish. They've taken the Atari name and dragged it through the muck more than Atari itself did (and with the Tramiels, that took some serious work).
One of the TAs in my low-level assembly course could not write a line of C or ASM despite having a master's degree in computer science, and TAing the bloody course. Makes you wonder.
The point I was trying to make in the article submission was not only that CNN didn't notice this, but that they also ignored the accredited degrees from Full Sail, Digipen, various universities and CMU.
I nearly failed a comp sci assignment when I built a final up from a hack (that was laden with expletives). It took like 15 minutes to explain to my prof the "sheer stress" I was under.:)
Safari is, how shall I put it? Feature-lacking. It has no "ignore popups from x" feature, there's no clean way to disable hacked-in extensions (like PithHelmet).
There were steering wheels for the Colecovision and Genesis (and more recently, the N64 and PS1) that I can remember.
In addition, online gaming on a console was available on the Genesis/MD and SNES through XBand (as well as many other failed initatives, including the Saturn NetLink modem -- yum, online Sega Rally -- and more recently the Dreamcast, though that's pretty close to "this generation").
We've had MUDs for years, too. Graphical ones, as well.
Yeah, my 12" gets really hot around the drives too. I can't understand why it's the hard drive section and not, for example, the battery. I'll have to check my repair manual to see what else is in that general section.
Word of mouth pretty much killed the purchase of a Centrino laptop for me. I'm not going to bother with ndiswrapper and all the other garbage to get the wireless working when I could buy a Mac.
Actually, since either 10.2 or 10.3 the shell has been bash in Mac OS X. I wouldn't use tcsh now if my life depended on it.
In addition, you can run KDE inside the "X11" application that comes with Mac OS X; it takes a bit of work but can definitely be done. It's slightly easier just to install XDarwin and do the same, though.
Agreed. QEMU is a fantastic piece of software.
Tele-vision? What is this you speak of?

Journalistic integrity @ CNN => 0

XCode 2.0 is actually supposed to automatically "vectorize" programs for better optimization with altivec (check the Tiger page for it).
More importantly, it's a Windows-only closed-source game. What the hell is it doing on Slashdot?
The scary part is that since it's CPU is IBM-based, it might just.

I wonder why they didn't feel free to give me grants. Ubisoft turns a profit -- they don't need them. I'm a poor student game (er, "art") developer.
Honestly, nothing humanity does on the Internet surprises me.
I'm leaning towards "Really fucking bored". That's where all of my doodles come from.
PyGame is a great starting point. I use C++ myself.
WebTV pulled IRC capabilities for their users at one point in time because they were getting so many complaints from the community at large, IIRC.
Yeah, EA's original pitch (I'm paraphrasing) was "We treat our developers like rock stars".
Fast forward to the sixteenth Sims expansion pack... what happened?

We had three of those at the company where I work. They were not only larger than the Mac Mini, but louder and more expensive to repair.
After three weeks of desk use, two of them had dead hard drives and the third had a dead CPU from overheating.
Oracle is popular for MMOs. I think one of the other big ones (either UO or City of Heroes) uses it.
The concept of a right-wing game is an interesting one. Provide examples? I'd say that America's Army is pretty conservative.
