tangogps and navit don't do very good routing (if you can get it to work at all), or geocoding. when he said 'gps' he meant 'navigation'.

Ah but there may be soon... ;)

trevs is sending me the images tomorrow, PM him and I'm sure he'll send you the zip also. so i guess we're gonna have a competition to see whose lightweight media player is better :P If you actually get something done though I'll probably just drop mine since I have a lot of other projects to...

OP title should have been "searching for peter mackay"... movie reference opportunity miss!

oh shit, we better cancel our preorders then! ;) seriously though, I think someone mentioned the unevenness is due to the hinge being only on one side, and it's so strong it slightly warps the pandora, but supposedely it's only like .5mm.

Nice first post there tony.

I talked to the dev of the Python port and got his latest source. OHRRPGCE on Pandora is currently on my list of 'projects to look into'. The C emitter is already working for FreeBasic, although very beta. I'm not sure if I'm going to attempt to improve the freebasic C emitter or rewrite the...

My order confirmation was at 12:18 CDT (-5) so 18:18 BST (I ordered after the servers finished crashing) and they told me I'm around 7-800 in the queue if that helps anyone.

me too, hope he comes back soon :( I can tell exo's sad about it too, he's less chipper than usual :P

I agree, the team is very productive and making great stuff, especially considering you all are doing this in spare time! I actually wrote 50 originally and then realized that was way too high, then changed it to 20. So I guess I was still too high. I'll be devving the second I get my Pandora...

Protip: there's a difference between digital and analogue capture. analogue video capture requires that you 1) compress it in hardware and send the compressed stream to the Pandora (expensive hardware - RE: Hauppauge) or 2) send the uncompressed stream (say 640x480pixels x 30fps x...

Yes, but it will require scaling, and will still have bars then. They can also add the option of stretching to fill the screen, but this will result in either cropping or changing the aspect ratio. It's likely all emus will support both approaches, but don't be surprised if at first they just...

The 'devs' in this case are not the same as the 'devs' in the other communities like GP2X and Wiz and Dingoo. The 'devs' is a small subset of programmers who currently have Pandora units (say maybe 20 people?) whereas normally 'devs' refers to everyone in the community who is a programmer and...

Agreed that Python's a little too good :) I guess with Go they were intending to improve upon C/C++ in areas that mattered to Google (concurrency), not create a higher-level language. Is stackless really that bad? I never used it, haven't had much use for concurrency so far so I haven't looked...

Congrats on the masters. It's a bitch, eh? Hah, writing Python for work sounds dreamy. I just took the best job I got offered (benefits / pay-wise). Python jobs tend to be rather scarce so one has to look around for them, and they also seem to quite often be at startups, which can be both a...

I would NOT recommend Dive into Python. In fact I have not read it either and in the past I have recommended it but have always put the same disclaimer that I haven't read it. I've always heard it's not a good beginner reference but after reading this article: Dive into Python Must Die I no...

I think you should have both ingame and out-of-game. out-of-game is good for another reason - it lets people have history of their messages in their e-mail clients (eg. I have a lot of e-mails saved in my gmail account). Otherwise you're stuck with the history yourself. So say someone...

I've only ever done this for Windows, and I just followed someone else's guide and it worked just fine. Have you tried following a guide? It doesn't actually build a binary anyway, it builds a binary that runs Python and then includes your source and resources in a zipped file. So it's not...

Heh, well I've been writing Python code for about 8 years :) In fact that snipped I posted is not how I would have done it, I would've redone that whole section in Main from this: running = True win = [False,False,False] Start.Loop() while running: planet = Space.Loop() if planet == 1...

Well... Not too bad for a 24-hr game. Some stuff didn't make sense but is probably because you're unfamiliar with pygame (eg. the bacon scrolls in about 5px increments but the people and the reddit guy move in 1px increments) A lot of the code is a little hairy and I don't know if I'd...
