  1. Cross platform gaming technology on Transgaming Technologies and Mac Developers · · Score: 1

    I've got a great crossplatform porting technology to bring games to linux/mac. It's called OPENGL/SDL/OPENAL. And if developers would actually adhere to crossplatform code standards they could actually nail 3 markets at the same time. Heck it'll even cut down on your console port (ps3) supports opengl at leas tthe ES version afaik. I know someone at bioware and even he was saying they had to rewrite for opengl in the playstation port. companies that don't write for opengl in the first place are retarded.

  2. been a long 6 years on Privateer Remake Complete · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I've been working on this for almost 6 years with the main coder. We both wanted to do a privateer remake. The original speech is in the game... figured out that running privateer in dosbox let's you raw dump the wav audio, took us ages to get the sound out. works tho :D the work is not yet finished! there will be an expansion to the privateer mod coming that will add the whole wing commander universe... over 500 star systems.

  3. anyone read the cease and desist letter? on Fansubbers Under Fire · · Score: 0

    The letter clearly listed Rahxephon as one of the shows, now Rahxephon has been on dvd in australia for ages now (years) and we get most stuff after america and I think after Europe. They're nailing a pirate group not a legit fansubbing group.

  4. heh iriver can't use itunes on Creative Gunning For the iPod · · Score: 0

    ihp-140 owner - best mp3 player in the world. Personally I see this as a total pro, so what if britney spears is denied my money... sucks to be her... onwards to p2p! besides there are legit music stores that sell mp3 and ogg format you know ;D

  5. Re:What's the downside to using X11? on Aqua OpenOffice.org v2.0 Cancelled · · Score: 0

    I can see this in a similar way to my own plight with gnome and kde, now I'm a gnome user, I'm not going to flame over which is better, I like to have my entire desktop look and work the same way, only gnome apps do that for me. I'm sure there are kde users who feel the same and who only run kde apps. Now that's not to say that running both is a bad thing, but some of us like having our cake and eating it to. So I can sympathize with mac people. The only real solution to this I guess is to let the guys writing the apps split the apsp into frontend/backend and get mac users/gnome users/kde users/windows users to write the frontends themselves.

  6. Re:Don't for a minute believe they won't do it. on US To Push Criminalization of IP Violations · · Score: 0

    Download that movie for free, and directly or indirectly, you are depriving the hundreds and thousands of crew members and artists that worked to create it and future movies. It's just a fact. - what a load of bullshit, crew members, hell even most actors are paid upfront. the profit all goes to the company, actors may be paid with a percentage of the movie's takings but that's still a huge number even with piracy.

  7. ipod killers on 2004 Digital Media Winners and Losers · · Score: 0

    ipod killers as loosers? HAHAHa everyonhe I've shown my Iriver ihp-140 to wants one, noone wants an ipod after seeing it, the only thing holding iriver back is it's lack of advertising, the ipod is already beaten on technical merit. It's just a matter of time before it loses. Remember noone needs more market/mindshare than apple... they just need to make a profit on the devices.

  8. meh on Tax Time Again: Any Linux Solutions? · · Score: 0

    I ju8st use the aussie tax program from the ATO and run it in wine...

  9. america: on Iran Cracks Down on Internet Sites · · Score: 0

    ok, here's the deal, basically poeple don't like america invading iraq because of what america said.. basically if america said HEY ASSFUCKING DICTATORS!, WE'RE COMING FOR YOUR ASSES! noone would have had a problem, instead they made up all this bullshit about WMD's and terrorists.. basically just bullshit. If America wants to liberate the world, that's fine, just do it properly. Don't make up stupid bullshit.

  10. bab5 on Babylon 5 Movie Starts Filming in April · · Score: 0

    best way to get into babylon 5 is to buy the dvd box sets... I bought the first one as a total gamble.. now I own upto season 3... trying to save cash for the last two boxes.. it's definately worth the money... best written sci-fi EVER.

  11. x.org, gnome, enlightenment on E17 Available From CVS · · Score: 0

    seems that x.org and gnome will do for people a lot of what enlightenment is trying, although I do find their idea of being able to run on top of X/framebuffer/directfb/qtopia to be kind of cool... it'll be interesting to see which of the two.. x.org or enlightenment have the better performance.

  12. Seaquest DSV on TV Piracy is Next · · Score: 0

    It hasn't once been broadcast in Australia since it's first run, and there are no dvd boxsets for it... so GO CRY ME A FUCKING RIVER YOU DUMBASS MEDIA COMPANIES I REFUSE TO PAY FOR YOUR SHIT WHEN YOU FUCK ME. & YOUR ADS SUCK!

  13. Re:Bram Cohen / Bit torrent on Valve Takes the Offensive on Warez Users? · · Score: 0

    bittorrent is a LINUX distribution system, NOT a warez system, don't mistake the two. Warez was never intended to be a part of bittorrent hence it's not anonymous, linux users have nothing to fear.

  14. Re:Alas, Apple will keep its lead... on Creative, Apple Battle for MP3 Player Market · · Score: 0

    simple integration with system? you gotta be kidding right? ever tried to use an ipod on bsd/linux? and an fm tuner? what is it you're wanting? an iriver... oh wait.. an iriver already has all of these features... :) and as for soud quality.. iriver has better sound fidelity and can drive speakers better than ipod can.

  15. Re:Take a lesson on Valve Takes the Offensive on Warez Users? · · Score: 0

    and yet Origin does still exist in the form of EA IP, which they still aggressively defend. I think hl2 will be safe. each new game valve brings out will use steam, shouldn't be too hard to keep hl2 authenticating when they're still running the servers for their newer games. besides, if they did go out of business they'll probably release a no steam patch.

  16. WINEX! on Half-Life 2 Finally Activated · · Score: 0

    mate of mine got Coutnerstrike source to run in cedega... HL2 may work... either way i'm too poor :( $5.00 away from being able to afford it ..*sniff*

  17. proprietary standards? on Gates v. Jobs, continued... · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I guess if open standards win then iriver has already won. Rockbox firmware http://www.rockbox.org coming soon will bust open the iriver's true potential! they already got the lcd screen to display their custom code... 140mhz motorolla coldfire cpu and 32mb sdram should be enough to handle any codecs you throw at it... :D looks like next year will be a good year for me.. and a bad year for ipod owners.

  18. Re:Time to upgrade? on Video iPod Available... Sort of · · Score: 0

    FM radio? iriver has had fm radio for ages. Color screen? get an ihp-320/340 the open source firmware recently got the lcd screen workign.. there was talk of making movies work on the color versions..

  21. Re:Reasons to fear on 40GB RCA Lyra: Apple Fans Needn't Fret · · Score: 1

    hahaha common to lowest denominator interface.. that's great, now back to the "Real World" Tm, ipod's wheel as simple as it is to use...sucks it takes 5 mins to learn to use an ipod, and 15 mins to learn to use an iriver, the difference is tho, that extra 15 mins makes a HUGE difference in what you can do with the device as opposed to the ipod where given 2000 years you still can't do more with it than you can in the first 5 mins.

  22. Re:Halo: The Movie on Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Preview · · Score: 1

    Wing Commander had a good storyline, pity the film chose to fuck it up, what was with that pilgrim SHIT!? that had NOTHING to do with the games, and freddie prinze jr? WTF! a decent wing commander film would be based on wing commander 2, or the novels End run or Fleet Action. great stories.. if you haven't played the games try them.. the movie has almost nothing to do with the games except it has some names that are the same.
