    Aluminium Case - Pictures

    @Tenka & rygD: You could get a dog-collar with sharp spikes (the kind you'd put around a pitbul's neck) and strap it around the Pandora. It will secure the lid, protect it against theft and will help you remember to take it out of your pocket before you sit down.

    Aluminium Case ready for preorder! (2014-07-18)

    Compared to today's netbook-designs the vision from the late 90ies of how things will look like in the future are incredibly bulky and clumsy ... when watching Star Trek TNG nowadays you don't really think about it, but when they made the series things like tablets and touchscreens really were a...

    A bunch of pictures

    What is the leftmost connector? I assume next to is eSATAp ... never heard of that before, so no idea if I will ever have a use for it other than using it as an USB-port ... but who knows. This will be full USB 3.0 (5 Gbit/s), right? Is there an overview somewhere what features are currently...

    News for Linux on GOG

    I once got Interstate '76 to run with WINE, and it seemed much better than running it under Windows (lot less glitches, especially sound). Unfortunately I only got it to run  only once, no idea what got messed up after that. So in general I wouldn't be surprised if an old Windows game runs...

    Aluminium Case ready for preorder! (2014-07-18)

    There's nothing wrong with Black Metal! (or is there? :P ) In the shop it says "483 Items in stock" :huh:

    Going off to University and seeking your advice :D

    I studied physics at the University of Cologne. If you're into Astronomy the nice thing is that it is basically just next to Bonn and the Max Planck Institute for Radioastronomy (where I did my PhD). You could also go to the University of Bonn in the first place, but from my experience things...

    Aluminium Case being made!

    A diagonal plastic inlet in the lid, rainbow-colored ... aiming basically at something like this: that would be awesome, especially on the black case (but it should also look good on the other one)!!

    Release Cannonball - The Enhanced C++ Outrun Engine

    The new tilt is great! It's no longer distracting when just changing lanes. In long turns you barely notice it's happening, but it really adds to the experience. Love it! :)

    Release Cannonball - The Enhanced C++ Outrun Engine

    Yes, I'm using the right nub for throttle/brake. Thinking about the rotation: if it rotates real slow and maybe not as much this would already help. Slow rotation would have the neat side-effect that the longer you steer to one side, the further it would rotate. This should give a better...

    Aluminium Case being made!

    The Wifi antenna is somewhere in the lid behind one side of the screen, so this is obviously where the "window" has to be. (Unless you re-locate the antenna)

    Release Cannonball - The Enhanced C++ Outrun Engine

    I think the rotation-effect is way too strong. If at all it should be much more subtle! Is it normal that the car is always braking when you release the throttle? For me that's how it is, but I would have expected the car to just roll and that you actively have to engage the brakes if you want...

    Aluminium Case being made!

    The case of my Pandora is fine (apart from the color wearing off in some spots), so I probably will not do it (also because my Wifi is pretty good and I don't want to risk it). I was actually hoping the Pyra might get a partly aluminum-case ... like an aluminum frame (which would make it sturdy...

    What will Pyra replace for you?

    I will wait for the Pyra and try it out before I will make any bold statements about how it will replace my Pandora. If it is equally good or better in all aspects (audio, touchscreen, display in general) it may very well do so. In that case may Pandora will become more stationary, maybe I'll...

    Favorite war movie?

    "Das Boot" and "Stalingrad" ... but I can't watch them often because they are rather depressing and unpleasant. Especially Stalingrad. But so is war, so ... ... ... "Three Kings" is also a pretty good war movie, but very different (seems to be a comedy at first, but then ...)

    Whether or not Pyra logos look like other things and Feminism.

    I believe that feminism started out as something good (referring to the text-book definition and history), but as most mass-movements it developed some strange branches that hurt the original idea more then they do it good (because they are perceived as what feminism is, even though it's not)...
