I like the idea of Flattr, maybe because I'm Swedish :lol: I actually had a similar idea for the appstore. What if every time you buy something a small amount of the price is added to a tip pot, say 5%. Whenever you find something you like you can tip it, taking a set small sum (€0.1 perhaps?)...

Lucky you, I've had 2 book stolen because the postman was too lazy and left them outside my door :( Once I heard the postman leave a package while I was in the shower and then a few minutes later I heard someone walk by and snatch it. Once I found a board game prototype from my publisher outside...

I don't see a point in Apple owning ARM, they would have to finance the continuous development themselves. Because ARM have a lot of customers they get the funds to keep developing and as a stand alone company they have to fight to stay market leader. If another company makes a better chip then...

You also need a talented team who can pull something like this together :)

I'm probably going to Spiel in Essen, Germany at the end of October. It's the worlds largest annual board game fair/convention, you can also find comics, live action RPG stuff, collectible card games and similar things there. If anyone wanna get together then, let me know. My photos from last...

Getting it past airport security :lol: Seriously though, they inspect all laptops and I can just imagine their looks if something electronic seems slightly home made...

There are still people canceling so if you haven't ordered one you might still be able to.

Personally I wouldn't like to stretch 4:3 content to fill the entire screen, I like my aspect ratio to be correct. But I wouldn't be surprised if you can switch to a stretched mode sooner or later, but the emulators would have to have that added to them. As long as the areas around the game is...

Personally I prefer the more colorful Sonic but it's hard to say since it's filmed and it probably looks different when you hold it in your hands. I would like to say that the blackness on the sides when playing Sonic looks much better then the movies Craig posted. This could have something to...

ED have previously said that he will be traveling back to Germany once or twice per week (IIRC) sounds to me like he plans to be a part of the whole 4000, or as many as possible anyway. I imagine they will keep assembly going 7 days a week until all 4000 are completed, probably with people...

My question is, why hasn't he done that already?

Thanks for the replies :) I really liked that Pygame rule, very informative. In the end I guess I'll have to try this out myself when I get my Pandora.

Um, if MW's Internet connection is only 5 Mb/s then 606 kB/s is about the max he can get as 600 kB ~ 4.8 Mb. It would be interesting to know what kind of speed he can get running the full OS and on a local network. Or he can just put a modified motherboard inside a Pandora and take it to the...

I think you misunderstood my questions. 1. Would this speed up blitting surfaces in my game? 2. Do I need to do anything with my surfaces to make them hardware? Most are created by loading images using the function below. SDL_Surface *load_image( std::string filename ) { SDL_Surface...

It the last blog update I noticed this line: I also noticed that the SDL_SetVideoMode function have a SDL_HWSURFACE flag. I changed this in my game code for my screen surface and the program ran fine. Also did it with my SDL_CreateRGBSurface function (so far only used on one surface). So, I'm...

Thanks for the calculation, that looks good enough for me. For instantly moving large files I will probably just move the SD card. I pay for "up to" 100 Mb/s and I ran a program that tested my connection to be about 76 Mb/s down and 36 Mb/s up, and I believe there are 48 apartments in this...

350 kB/s roughly equals 2.8 Mb/s, the broadband in my flat is capable of 76 Mb/s. I wonder what kind of speed would be required to stream a 480p movie from my computer, this is something I really want to be able to do with my Pandora.

Yeah, let's not clog up this thread any more :) I'll reply to you over PM tomorrow, this got interesting. It's almost 1 AM here now and I need to get up kind of early.
