Done :) - Also, what exactly is Transmission in this context? Sounds like a bittorrent client, but it's not something I've heard of...

Well a horribly hacky way to do it might be to open the terminal, drag it off the top of the screen to the second workspace, set the script on a slight delay... run, switch workspace, click, and everyone can move again :)

Well, personally I'd ask... whether or not they give you a funny look, it's better than being accused of trying to smuggle something onto a plane - especially if that something is almost certainly not on any list of expected electronics that may or may not be consulted. Especially if not taking...

Or even simply an implementation of the Pandora button! This emulator is amazingly promising (actually, for me it is a major reason to own a Pandora), but it is a little annoying that the button that is supposed to work to act as an escape from any application does not work with it. On another...

Heheh - yep! Actually, it turned up a couple of days ago - I've been getting used to it properly before I add to the growing crowds of reviews. Hopefully it'll mean I end up a little more active on here again... still got an MSc dissertation to write, though. It's amazing how much time life...

Done :)

Well, I just set my laptop to 550MHz (Ath Turion x2, so probably far from a reasonable estimate, but still encouraging) and swam around a bit in Aquaria pretty comfortably if without a little jutter... and that's with the default sized viewport which is probably larger than would be used on a...

Whehaaaaay! Good to be back! Congrats to Hando and Evildragon on getting everything sorted eventually :)

Cleaned somewhat. Come on guys, there are boundaries of good taste...

A whole bunch of PSX games, but in particular, Xenogears (which I've played before... three times... but not for the last four years or so, and have been holding off to play it on the move) Breath of Fire 3 & 4 which are just amazing. They're both incredibly pretty for psx era games, even on...

Yeah, they're both fantastic. I haven't had to deal with them much during this saga (except briefly to fiddle with the delivery address), but they've always been very helpful in the past. Just a note though, I'll be modifying or snipping any of the depressingly usual misogyny and pic request...

I remember MWeston saying that this was specifically the failure rate for the test boards, and that it was simply a matter of reflowing them to get them working - the failure rate was said to be high because the equipment hadn't yet been tuned to the insanely close BGA on the chips... I don't...

A thought to make it possible to grab information early rather than later: Add an element of wormhole. Wormholes take you some random place, but are generally two way. The trick to making them productive early would be information of the variety "suchandsuch a wormhole will take you closer to...

Topics merged for general tidyness...

I've finally gotten round to actually playing the game, rather than just making suggestions based on its description (finished a rather long essay which I had to do first). It's *awesome*. Especially the way the upgrades aren't just in power, but also in the way the piece of kit works. A few...

Probably true. As I understand it, the compatibility issues that Chip mentioned mostly exist because typically, the shutter glasses are separate to the screen, and CRT screens behave in particular ways. If we're dealing with glasses with the screens built in, we shouldn't have to worry about...

Really really pretty images. Really. Pretty. I can't help but think a lot of these ideas could be very very successfully incorporated into startup animations, if those end up being customisable. An interesting experiment in continuity and flow might be to set up said animation so that the...

I've always been put off video-glasses by the resolutions involved... somehow I just can't find myself getting excited about a 640x480 display that is supposed to take up the majority of my field of view; even less so the 320x240 ones. They're undoubtedly cool pieces of tech, but at the moment...
