    Mojang getting bought by Microsoft (title edited)

    He is not only an employee, he is also the founder and big (possibly majority) shareholder. If he is a key asset to the company he can also probably not leave at any time as his continued work for a certain time is likely brokered into the deal. Of to bed now, more will probably be clear by...

    Mojang getting bought by Microsoft (title edited)

    Of course I realize it's Mojang and not Notch himself. Slavery has been abolished for quite some time even in the US. But I must admit that I made the assumption that Notch has a majority stake in Mojang and thus it's pretty much him selling the company to Microsoft. If not I retract my...

    The long road to a final unit

    Excellent point. But the screen itself is worse so that would always trump the keyboard. We have reached a compromise as far as phones go and the Pandora screen size makes it a device in the phone department.  I once bought one of these really small lights you could clip onto a book and that...

    The Pyra case should have this colour as an option!

    Please not only vivid colours! I already think the grey/silver 1GhZ color I have is too conspicuous (tbh I also find that colour a bit tacky). I'd much rather have it matte black. Although the Commodore/Donkey Kong handheld brown beige mentioned earlier could be pretty nice too.

    The long road to a final unit

    Is it weird that the main thing I'm looking forward to in the Pyra is the backlit keyboard? I would use my Pandora so much more if it would have that. For me it's the ideal fiddling around in bed device and I get a lot of euhm.. let's say negative feedback from the other person inhabiting my...

    http://www.theverge.com/2014/9/9/6128759/microsoft-said-to-be-buying-the-maker-of-minecraft-for-2-billion Unexpected to say the least.  :blink: I thought he was the kind of guy that loved his independence and I don't think the money will change his lifestyle as he has already plenty of it...

    USB Charging

    Guess I'm doomed then for the next couple of days. It's definitely completely flat. Thanks for your reply!

    USB Charging

    I'm having this problem. Lost my charger and my Pandora is completely empty. When I plug the micro usb - usb in my laptop it doesn't charge. Would plugging it into another device then my Windows laptop help? Or any other solution? I have one last spot to check for the charger before I'm going...

    Heroes 2 - Cant save

    Same here. Makes it unplayable due to having too much of a live to finish a map in one go. :)

    Website - Basic Ideas

    Is it me or is the search for a project lead on the development side come to a screeching halt?  Maybe we should turn it around and make shortlist of people who we think capable of doing it and work from there. So as I stated earlier, I'd be happy to take on the html/css part of the project as...

    Website - Basic Ideas

    What I can do is 'subcontract' for instance the html and css part of the project. So the project leader wouldn't have to make all the to-dos and do follow up for that area. There are definitely more experienced guys than me around so I'm not trying to claim anything but if it helps I'm happy to...

    Current Development Team

    I can do html and css and have experience with Bootstrap as a responsive framework. The only cms I've worked with is WordPress and my php skills are limited to beating WordPress into submission. I need to up my php game seriously though so I'm available for the tasks no one else wants to do...

    Website - Basic Ideas

    The which cms or no cms choices are going te be limited by who is going to be project lead (not me) and his/her skill set. Someone needs to be able to oversee the whole project and divide the tasks and check the work that's done. So wouldn't it make more sense to first suss out who is...

    Website - Basic Ideas

    We'd use WordPress as the backend. Theme will be built from scratch. Adapting an existing theme is more work in my experience. So the visitor won't be able to see in any way that it's built on WordPress unless they check the source. Example of a site I built on WordPress (and Bootstrap) here...

    Website - Basic Ideas

    Bootstrap is great. So easy to build fast once you get the hang of it.  I was looking at angular.js earlier today. I'm currently playing around with knockout.js a bit in a small project for a friends business. Seems like angular.js is much the same but much much bigger. wouldn't mind having a...

    Website - Basic Ideas

    With the time frame being beginning 2015 I'd be fine with not using Bootstrap or any other responsive framework and building our own. Would be a good learning experience.

    Website - Basic Ideas

    Speaking from my own skill set and experience I'd say a lot of it depends on the time frame you have in mind for the website going live. I've never built my own CMS before and if one of the other developers is experienced in that and feels comfortable in leading such a project and his/her...

    iCP2: They're throwing in the towel.

    Because that way Link can try to create a bit of space between himself and Craig in the eyes of the backers. Instead of "we" are offering this choice it's Link informing the rest about something that is out of his hands and not his fault.

    Website development

    Let's see first things first. Who is/are doing the design? And who are the coders? I'm sadly just a coder, I fail miserably at design. If I recall correctly ED rather not have a cms and is happy to change the content in the code itself so we don't have to think about that. Are we going to...

    Website development

    I own a pub. So that seems to be the most logical choice. Every other Thursday at 20:00 in Amsterdam? We probably need a spot were the people actively working on it can fight among themselves and a spot where everyone can chime in.
