I like filezilla and filezilla server, ZSNES (okay, maybe they don't count... oh, well), VirtualDub, CDex, Dev-C++, UPX (although the last two probably won't apply in this case)... there are a few others but I can't remember right now. Open Office, except they have some pretty annoying bugs.
UCR's hosting ISOs. They're very brave to be one of the only sites listed for ISOs in the US (so are theo thers, but I attend UCR, so:p). Well, cool. They, btw, are very big on Linux. Afaik, most of the profs require you to make your software under Linux, and most of their desktops boot to Linux. I'm a CS major there, but I'm not taking any CS courses for at least two semesters (I'm a freshman), so I can't say for sure.:/
Donkey Kong Country I/II/III/, DK 64, Diddy Kong Racing, Banjo Kazooie, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Perfect Dark, GoldenEye 007, and later Starfox Adventures was done between them and Nintendo. This among other things. I would look this up except Rare's website seems to be under construction. Nintendo still owns the Donkey Kong franchise, however.
Well, that's why I'm going to the School of Majicks nearby to learn how to cast Spells of Operation on my Logic Medium (and others'). Maybe I can learn how to disspell the Restriction Circles that they're planning on casting. Except their powers are unimaginable...
Well, for that to happen, you'd have to load the code first, and for that, the code has to be signed, unless you put a modchip in it, in which case it would be pointless to have a buffer overflow because it's already modded.
I would have, save for the small fact that the page was down when I tried to access it. It did this several times, and I posted my small question. Excuse me for ruining your beloved site with my clearly idiotic post. Obviously there was no way that you could ignore my stupidity, because it just stuck out like a sore thumb. I can only hope that you can forgive me for committing so heinous a crime, because it's so important that I appeal to your opinion, of which I REALLY, TRULY CARE about VERY MUCH.
I've gotten at least half a dozen Nigerian Money Scam emails, and it all started when I posted my unaltered email on slashdot.
Anyway, I just forward any scam I get to the FTC. I wish I could forward it to the FBI, too, but I don't know a good address with which to do it. Anyone know one?
^erm, replace "air-powered cars" with "the air-powered car in the article," and put in a few paragraphs in there.
Grr... who invented this two minute time limit?
The problem I see with air-powered cars is the same as with electric cars -- it takes too long to refill 'em. That would be why nobody would buy electric cars. If it took three minutes instead of three hours, that'd be a different story. I know they said that you can go to stations that do this, but THEY have to cooperate as well (and shell over the hundred grand). Maybe they will. Who knows?
Also, there were some questions that went unanswered: does it have AC, radio, etc.?
Also, 120 miles isn't a good result for a benchmark. People will want at least double that. And how fast can it go uphill on a highway? I live in a reletively hilly area (that is, I live in a valley which is pretty much entirely on a slope).
Anyway, back ot, gas/electric hybrids have been out for quite awhile. This is not news. Although it is a motorcycle, so I guess that qualifies...
Mm, hm, and you're right here with the rest of us, AC-san.
Personally, I'd see it if I was within ten years of the targeted audience age or I found at least one other reasonably sane person who's also going nearby.
That seems fine by me. I mean, seriously, how much different is this than auctioning/selling off your own character? Anyway, I don't see what the fuss is about; a newbie is a newbie, and this isn't going to make the newbie a better player.
But what do I know? I haven't played the game much at all... I thought it was a bit boring.
Well, yes, because that's the Apple way of doing things -- you take it out of the box, and it just works. As you can see, they're clearly superior to PCs in every aspect, including speed of updates.
On second thought, reading the post above mine, I guess they took the alternate route of simply writing out the image data on a card (several cards, actually). Oh, well, shows what I know...
I thought Nintendo was AGAINST emulation?:p No, I know they'd permit it if they were doing it, especially if they had control over it.
And it's not really all that much information. Some games are as small as 40kb (Super Mario Brothers, for example), and even the largest NES games are only 512kb (Megaman 4-6, Castlevania 3), which can be made a lot smaller if they're compressed.
Anyway, what they could do is write a small emulator on the GBA cartridge and have a trading card reader that will enable ROM images already on that cartridge. You can put a lot of info on a GBA cart. I don't know the max capacity of a GBA cart, so that's just speculation.
There's an FAQ on the GBA e-reader here, but that has more to do with Pokemon (and, if you think about it, it would make more sense)

Yeah, I could have just said "induce seizures," but I had to take the two and a half minutes to write all that out... oh, and throw "SetWindowPos Handle, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, TOPMOST_FLAGS" in there somewhere, just to get the whole artistic effect...
It's a PC user's sentiment. Or a hobbyist who just wants to build a Mac. I might consider it. Of course, it would probably be smarter just to get a really low-end system from Apple and upgrade parts from Ebay. But hey, I'm a stupid PC user, so what do I know?
Yeah. They're all against you. The government attacks us. It's exactly like it is in 1984. You'd better watch out or the thought police are gonna getcha.

No, that's silly. Actually, as it turns out, Gates and Balmer were actually moles for the FSF.

Nintendo is kindly making it cheaper to emulate your favorite games on your home PC.
How much cheaper than free did you want?

Whoever has the gold makes the rules. Sorry, had to say it.
Aw, crap, I forgot about (br).... lemme try that again.
.BorderColor = RGB(Rnd * 255, Rnd * 255, Rnd * 255)
.BackColor = RGB(Rnd * 255, Rnd * 255, Rnd * 255)
.Width = Me.Width / 4 * Rnd * 3
.Height = Me.Height / 4 * Rnd * 3
.Left = Me.Width * Rnd - .Width / 2
.Top = Me.Height * Rnd - .Height / 2
Private Sub Form_Load()
Randomize Timer
Call MakeTopMost(Me.hWnd)
Me.Width = Screen.Width
Me.Height = Screen.Height
Me.Left = 0
Me.Top = 0
End Sub
Private Sub tmrTime_Timer()
If Me.BackColor = vbBlue Then Me.BackColor = vbRed Else Me.BackColor = vbBlue
Dim pos As Double
For i = 0 To 4

End With
Next i

How's that? Same idea, but syntactically correct!

Who said anything about objective journalism? If you came to /. for that, I would suggest leaving immediately and never turning back.
