    PNG does 16 bits per channel just fine.

  3. Re:Butt our or... on Nikon Responds to Encryption Claims · · Score: 1

    It does not even protect copyrighted data. And even if white balance information can be copyrighted it's still the users data no Nikon's. DMCA does not come into play here.

  7. Re:Lets just hope it isn't too revolutionary on Nintendo Revolution Under Wraps Past E3 · · Score: 1

    The only 'mini' disks that provide lower quality then DVD's are UMD or do you see someone seeling movies on Gamecube disks?

  9. Re:ummmm... on Bandai to Ship UMD and DVD Discs Together · · Score: 1

    So they can't profile disk access? Sony really loves to shoot themselves in the foot with their formats...

    Sugestions are welcome, there is little around to compare to Wesnoth in quality.

  11. Re:Microsoft Business Plan on MS: Beta Software Good Enough for Production Use · · Score: 1

    When Google uses beta software on their servers and something breaks they have to fix it. When you use Microsoft beta software on your servers and it breaks you have to fix it and pay MS for the fun.

  12. Re:Unless I read wrong... on Users as Innovators - Why Open Source Works · · Score: 1
    How many times do we hear "well why dont YOU code it then?"

    Most of them will be the best support you can get if you look for answers first and know how to ask questions: present new problems in a way they can understand. A first step is to make sure at least someone else than you can understand what you want.

  18. Re:Great open source game on Freeciv-2.0.0 Stable Released · · Score: 1

    Replaying the same maps over and over again is not a part of a game I will enjoy.

  19. Re:what a great game an opensource project can cre on Freeciv-2.0.0 Stable Released · · Score: 1
    Everyone knows Nethack exists, it is there, and is the best bloody action-RPG ever made.
    I think the term you are looking for is "hack and slash", action RPG is understood to be something along the lines of Zelda.
  20. Re: Wesnoth's gameplay... on Freeciv-2.0.0 Stable Released · · Score: 1

    They need to get rid of permanent units. I don't want to replay the previvous map because I discover that the current needs expierenced units.
