I'd like to not use C. Maybe I just suck at it but I find myself wrestling with the language more than with the problem I want to solve. I haven't had a look at C++ yet, maybe that would change my mind. I'd love to use Python but any other language that's fit for the job and not too obscure...

Hi, I've been wanting to try some game development for quite some time now but couldn't find a game engine supporting and actually running / being usable on all the platforms I want (Windows, Linux, Pandora and Android). I've been looking at: MOAI, which I quite like, although it's more or less...

 I use a password safe (KeepassX, one of the Pandora's killer-apps for me), but most of my passwords are made with Diceware. I really like how a rather secure password consists of six short words, it makes it both easy to remember and fast to type in. That Vedic Math thing is pretty cool...

I don't really understand how exclusivity is a good thing. You're basically just limiting the choice of the customer. It won't take your nerdy audience an hour to set up any PC they want (be it as cheap and/or as powerful as they see fit) with a TV, any controller they want and a TV-centric...

How do I use Python with Code::Blocks or rather without it? I already have a Python package that requires 2.7.3. Running /mnt/utmp/codeblocks/usr/bin/python3.3 works, /mnt/utmp/codeblocks/usr/bin/python2.7 fails with Traceback (most recent call last): File...

No, I think it's Skype's bad Linux support and a strange policy on its SDK, see here: http://code.google.com/p/skype4pidgin/issues/detail?id=123

I think my internal wifi is about as fast as BT. Power consumption seems to be lower than internal and definitely is lower than USB wifi. Also, wifi hotspot drains the phone battery pretty fast for mine.

It should be easy to do for a Batman logo or a Hitchhiker's Guide but as soon as you need more colors? I don't know but I can imagine that's more complex than it sounds. Skeezix' link does all of that, so I was probably wrong :D I wouldn't donate to theme my Pandora though, I'd do it myself :D

From what I've read vinyl stickers are very good for this. Some copy-shops do vinyl plotting, I've found two or three in my area in the yellow pages. EDIT: I'd orient it the same way as you would, skeezix. It was just easier to do the other way on the image.

The Pandora is a multifunction device and does some things I'd expect the BatLaptop to do, too, so... What I'd love more than anything else is this, though: I really need to find someone around here who can plot vinyl stickers.

Interesting, this doesn't work on my desktop machine. I've only tried it on my laptop and assumed if it worked there, it would work on any other PC, too. EDIT: Lol, it doesn't even work with on my laptop anymore?! I did update to the most recent firmware since, though...

The CD you've burned is a "Live CD". You have to boot your PC from it.

I had my unit delivered very early in 2011. My nubs work fine, my LCD cable broke, though. For N64 emulation have a look at Did quite a bit for my unit.

@ ppsp_input.conf: I really don't get these calibration variables. According to the comment above them the output is a polynomial function out(in)=in*CALIB_X[0] + in^2 * CALIB_X[1] + in^3 * CALIB_X[2] + in^4 * CALIB_X[3] (or the other way around as you said... The more I try the more I think...

The -R option makes it recourse through all subfolders, so all the contents of the SD card, including its root folder will have the new owner and keep it across mounts because the information is stored in the file system not on the host.

As far as I know ext3 isn't the best choice for memory cards because of its journal, I use ext2 on mine. SDXC cards are usually formatted with exFAT, a proprietary filesystem by Microsoft. Also MS imposes limitations on what you can format to FAT to promote its newer filesystems. Actually, you...

I have been told it's possible to break your own hand with a gun if you don't know what you're doing (like shooting sideways/gangster-style) And just assume that you contract the zombie disease by bites (which means by getting their bodyfluids on or into your body) a sword is the last thing...

Mine has been testing for the last 24h and has been at 954MHz for the last 12h so I think that's stable. Is there a way to edit the traybar menu? EDIT: Also, is it possible to test memory overclocking stability in a similar way?

Yes, I meant paired and yes my phone (at least with cyanogenmod) uses the PAN profile.

I didn't, I just tethered my phone and the Pandora and had to tick a box next to "Do you want to use this phone for internet connection?" It then shows up in networkmanager whenever you have bluetooth switched on even when your phone hasn't.
