Here's a video in the style of our game that communicates pretty well the difference between good and bad lighting for a scene.

E-waste will be reduced when you just upgrade the main board with a new piece of system-on-a-chip... But how long the main board will be compatible with the new inserted System-on-a-chip? 5 years?

If you buy a desktop computer, you could easily use it for five years without upgrading.

Personally, I feel they should make it smaller and with a stronger battery that is able to power it for longer periods of time. There's no reason they can't, because the motherboard is so small.

 

Also, I hope it has an analog headphone jack. Please do include a DAC.

I found out the other day that the guys responsible for the legendary series of "dick in a box", "the golden rule" and "mother lover" have quite a few songs.... So funny! :)

 

Oh yeah, hell funny! And don't forge their "I just had sex" :D Turtleneck and Chain are soo funny!

Android is coming for the desktop... I hope this sort of thing expands.

 

I already saw a "computer-in-the-keyboard" type computer, but running I think Windows or Linux. Its really strange, and presumable wasn't upgradable, but anyway, it was so cheap that upgrading it would be a waste of time and the target usage (websurfing, etc) makes upgrading useless, anyway.

 

OTOH, I'm not really sure that the point is, anyway. Sure, you no longer need the computer but you need to connect all cables to they keyboard (which might make it more awkward and stiff on your desktop), so it isn't a laptop replacement (for that it needs wireless display WiDi).

 

Putting android on everything seems the rage nowawadays, but it is actually step back for the user. You only have a fixed set of apps, the google spying, malware is there, too, and you cannot install software freely as you want. Seems to me all the drawbacks, but very little advantages over having a real OS. It is fine for media players and "consuming devices", but not so for real "creating" and software development etc.

 

Edit. "Coolship is a strongly customized Android version" - ugh, NOO. That means in 3 years it is no longer updated, incompatible with other stuff, and you can't replace the OS with your own, anyway. Oh well.

This video should have been at least twice as long, he talks way to fast and skips over some interesting details in 1 second. But I guess it is taylored to the twitter generation where nothing can exceed your tiny attention span of ooh shiny!

I couldn't imagine the video any minute longer - it was all okay for me :laugh:

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
