  1. Re:RSS to IMAP folders (using plagger, in my case) on What's the Best RSS Reader Not Named Google Reader? · · Score: 1

    I don't like webservices because I have no control over it.

    I meant *closed source* webservices.

  2. Re:Feeds by email! (Blogtrottr) on What's the Best RSS Reader Not Named Google Reader? · · Score: 1

    That looks nice.
    Though I like better to be in control, and use a perl script (plagger) to post RSS items in IMAP folders. So it's a self-hosted solution that need more handwork, but is very customizable.

  3. RSS to IMAP folders (using plagger, in my case) on What's the Best RSS Reader Not Named Google Reader? · · Score: 1

    I don't like webservices because I have no control over it.
    IMAP is a nice protocol and there are clients for everything, offline modes, etc. Then RSS items can easily be managed, sorted, searched, forwarded...

    I use a perl program named "plagger" that need a bit of time to set up (and patch, if you like to), but I guess there are other ways.

  4. As Carmack said during QuakeCon 2007... on PS3 Issues Caused GTA IV Delay? · · Score: 1
    http://pc.ign.com/articles/810/810595p1.html

    Carmack speaks on bringing the games to multi-console setups. Remarks that "If something goes wrong, it's going to be on the PS3." He comments that he knows people flame him for saying it, but that it's still true. Microsoft takes far less memory space internally than PS3 does (a mere fraction of the amount), so it's simply a fact that PS3 is harder to port things over to. But maybe it's just a conspiracy against Sony...
  5. Re:Could this be it? on Nintendo's Early 2005 Strategy · · Score: 1

    Oh, I should have posted this url: technical doc in english about their stuff.
    It's available for PC, but it looks like they have no relationship with game makers, and they don't market it for games on their website.
    Nothing that big if you ask me, just an advanced eyetoy. But it looks great with all the real time reflection, real world interaction and stuff.

  6. Re:Could this be it? on Nintendo's Early 2005 Strategy · · Score: 1

    It's an old interview of a french company working on new tech. It doesn't looks like it's linked to Nintendo, but why not...
    It was shown on the French/German TV, Arte, the 03 june 2004
    You can switch the language to German, if you understand better :)
    Warning: don't look at the "Arte" front page today if you don't want nude girls on your screen. There will be something about porn this evening. This is /. so I guess it's a reversed warning...

  7. ETF Linux download on Enemy Territory Fortress Mod Arrives · · Score: 1

    I don't know why there is no direct link for ETF Linux installer on /., as I guess there is a lot of Linux users here.
    Though, the mirrors page http://www.etfgame.com/files/mirrors/etf_10_linux. shtml
    and torrent http://tracker.planetetf.com:81/torrent.html?info_ hash=b8d4a22cce906b1ad88b58ba4433af725807ba4a are available.

  8. Re:N - on Independent Games Festival 2005 Finalists · · Score: 2, Informative

    Too bad there is a sound pb on Linux, that freeze the whole thing for a short time quite often. It's unplayable like that.
    There is some workaround in their forum, but it still need to be fixed. http://metanet.2.forumer.com/index.php?showtopic=4 86&st=0

  9. Re:Oh sad day.. on Jeff Minter's Unity Cancelled · · Score: 1

    If you say everything is dying because it exists, it's somewhat true but then the meaning of dying is useless.
    It's better to have a worth word, so the "dying" phase is when something is decreasing to death.
    There is at least a "raise" and "apogee" phase before.
    I thought it's common knowledge, but I must be new here :)

    If it's the main reason, too bad he cannot adapt and finish it for the PS3 or something.
    The most obvious risk here, is to have another Duke Nukem Forever...

  11. Re:It really doesn't look all that great. on Russian-Targeted MMORPG Faces Unique Obstacles · · Score: 5, Insightful

    "An English language MMORPG is going to sell as well in Russia as a Russian MMORPG will in America"

    Not sure about it.
    In Europe, as we haven't a lot of choice of localized MMORPG, most of the friends I have are playing US MMORPGs on US servers. One goal is to learn the language at the same time.

    But maybe me and my friends aren't representative (and I'm playing Japanese beta of Lineage 2 too, so...)

    Sorry guys, I didn't do a fine link.
    So for those that don't wanna follow the MS recommendations about links usage (type url by hand), or are too lazy to copy/paste, here are the screenshots

    "Notch down the graphics and the engine just a little bit, and you'll save HUGE amounts of money."

    It still looks quite good, as seen on http://sphere.yandex.ru/rus/screens.xml (the eng screenshot section don't work)

    I wonder how the gameplay is.

  14. keyboards as gaming device on Phantasy Star Online Ep.3 - A Worthy Direction? · · Score: 1

    Looks like keyboard and HD will become standard on console since there is more and more online games, and especially mmorpgs.
    All they need is a mouse to be efficient in FPS :)
