Its more with regards to the present situation, not in general where there is more time to organise a proper work from home arrangement. I think the title did come across a bit click baity, though that really wasn't the intention. My question was that since such a situation has allowed for considerable flexibility in the…
I mean the way it was created and for what purpose is something I anticipated. They built something that is quick to monetise, maybe not monetise the way Midjournery and Lensa are doing it, but driving users so that you can get venture capital. Also the people behind it are marketing people looking to monetise web3, nft…
From personal experience Mac reliabilty is no better, the hardware is the same branded hardware you get in a PC. I think perhaps the switch to Intel has changed things in that regard. I own a Macbook pro and if you open it up its all regular brand PC parts. Realtek, Nvidia, seagate, intel.. and so on. The build quality is…
Blender's Open Movies have been partially funded by pre-orders, with the buyers getting their name in the final credits. It's a bit more complicated there, though, because the eventual movie is released for free on the Internet and the pre-orders are donations more than sales (unless you think 30 for a 10-minute DVD is…
I think mobile gaming is taking over in some ways. The more casual gamers who'd play games such as Bejeweled on the console they have in their house have now moved or are moving to smartphones and tablets. But I don't think touch devices will take over the entire console market. Touch controls are very limited and a game…
I dont get what the craze over flu shots is. It seems that in the last 10 years i hear more about it every season. I never get flu shots, and really never get the flu, in fact i get sick way less than almost anyone i know. And i live in a crowded city with a lot of time spent on public transit. I think these flu shots are…
its propably done using either papervision or sandy3d,- and booth require AS3 if you want some serios boost. from the page it says also: There is also from booth an older AS2 version available but even those wont work on the PSP as the PSP has a flash player 6 kit (Sony never licensed a newer version so far). AS2 is…
Great article. I enjoyed reading every bit of it. [ QUOTE ] The real innovations and possibilities BEGIN when we hit that brick wall of "ok, well we can simulate a perfect reality, now what?" [/ QUOTE ] Make it fun. Realism looks nice, but it isn't fun. That's why it's a novelty that dies quickly once you've seen it.…
there's nothing worse than the excess hype that gets bandied around any time there's deformable/destructable terrain type features in an upcoming game. technically, yes you could make a game has a very highly destructable game world, but every time we've gotten close to that (say, Red Faction's geomod), it's shoehorned…
Of course it's a crock, why get angry about it, so Spike TV decides to host a badly-done video game awards show that focuses more on the "hip" side of video games, kinda like that one time I read there was a party for games run by some publisher where people who worked in the game industry weren't even allowed in,…
