Maybe - I haven't really followed it.
I really hope though he will continue doing public technical talks like the last QuakeCon.

Next Gen is HERE!

13th November 2013

PC gaming master race!
You're right though. The new consoles are hella expensive, and what's on them to make it worth it? I'm tempted by the PS3+GTAV bundle but we'd have to get a new TV too (ours is still a CRT) and that's not cheap either.

Rome II Total War's DLC

8th November 2013

Everyone's at it.
Age of Empires II (yes, the 1999 game) had DLC released just now.
Which is pretty impressive, mind.

Huh, Rome II Total War actually has sold blood separately as *!APOUND!*1.99 DLC. WTF.

About the new BBCode Buttons

5th November 2013

On the topic. When you edit your profile, the box above the "Current Password" bit always auto-fills my username because Chrome thinks its a username box.
It did that before the updates -- I just figure now is a good time to complain!

Abysmal "Next Gen"?

COD hasn't been good since COD4 anyway!

About the new BBCode Buttons

18th October 2013

Extra effort, but a CSS sprite sheet is the way to go. Stuff it all into one image, and use CSS background-position to pick the right one.

What new buttons?

Although adding a HTML title tag might be helpful to explain what each does.

Stood in a boiling hot, crowded, loud noisy tent for two days straight to advertise our socialist students society. Splitting headache. Signed up 65 people though!!

Aye they some folks were saying it can stream from your PC as well.
Mind you our TV is still cathode ray tubes so maybe not.

Endianness -- do you care?

16th September 2013

Oh! Mixed Endian! That must be awful!!!
Apparently the next generation of consoles are dropping big endian and going to x86 as well which would probably help.

Endianness -- do you care?

These days it's Intel, but until 2006 they used PowerPC

The least-sucky static website generator that I’ve found so far (uses python): Linkage

Endianness -- do you care?

15th September 2013

Now that iMacs no longer use PowerPC, does anyone still care about Endianness?
Yes Network Byte Order is still big-endian -- in which case there are some portable functions like htonl to take care of this. But other than that?
I used to make the effort t*snip*

Cobra Retires

14th September 2013

Assuming you meant to reply to the topic about Cobra (Cobra retires: (Linkage)
What I liked about Cobra was it was a bit more strict and structured than Blitz3D was -- no subtle errors caused by typo in variable names.
It was a nice stepping stone half w*snip*

Multiple Monitors

21st August 2013

I wish I had multiple monitors!!! 1920x1080 is nowhere NEAR big enough!!!
The problem is my eyesight is fine but I like massive massive font sizes to avoid getting a headache.
Which means I can only fit about one file tree, one 80-column editor, plus one*snip*
