If you want to provide it to the world with little or no effort on your part, cafepress works. Free for you (not necessarily cheap for them). I think the simple white cheap t-shirts with front printing have a base price of $8 or $9, and you take the extra amount of whatever you set the selling price...

"Design skis to Antarctic station contest win" Is it just me or is that title not exactly "English"? I didn't have the marginal interest to read the rest of the article, but I'm guessing they're using design=noun, skis=verb, and win=noun. Like "Robojoe walks to Antarctic station contest victory". I...

I wanna fuck you in the ass Um, is there a context for this? It's too subtle to be more of Dave's innuendo and doesn't seem particularly quotable. It was a song by the Outhere Brothers, the same guys who did the classic hit "Boom boom boom". Specifically, it was used in a funny German commercial fo...

Is it reasonable for studios to begin making straight-to-dvd television shows? I don't know what current stats are for how many people watch any given show vs how effective the advertising during the commercials is vs whatever other factors may be important. But I do know that purchasing an entire s...

Re: hot 'n' tasty j.p.n data
BeOS 187 0.3 % (Damn you, Bob) Haha! I create server statistics all by myself! Actually, I've only been using BeOS for the past week because my laptop went in for repairs, and Be was the only other OS I could get running on the network. I also create a good portion of those Mac statistics. It's int...

nudenda? Yeah, wtf? That sounds like a place you go to hang out with naked people. I bet what happened is that one person sent it in and the Merriam-Webster people are so damned boring that they thought this clever word was the funniest thing ever, so they either put it up on the page immediately or...

"Feel free to use these sprites," [to which we do not even remotely own the copyright]. I like that they give us permission to use all of the sprites there. Really classy.VLSmooth wrote:Video Game Sprites ( Link )

This whole talk makes me very happy to be in my "line of work". Self employment does afford a very flexible schedule. In the past few days, I've scheduled one five day trip to attend a wedding in a few weeks and hang out at home, and a ten day trip to Colorado with my parents later in the summer. On...

Isn't the point of a sabbatical so you can go do something like work at Disneyland so you can get an appreciation of how your product is used there, or go into academia for a while to learn more stuff about the current tech? Instead of playing Baldur's Gate. Ok, Dictionary.com says it's just "a leav...

The problem with pathfinding nodes in Q3A is that they can't be more than 512 units apart. I think this includes vertical distance as well. But increasing pathnode frequency adversely impacts performance. So the answer is to put them slightly less than the max distance apart, all 8 units above the g...

The thing is, Jon, it's not that I'm lazy about posting. It's just that I just don't care. Don't, don't care? It's a problem of motivation, all right? Now, if I work my ass off and Mohtalim ships a few extra topics, I don't see another dime. So where's the motivation? And here's another thing, Jon. ...

Java = teh FUNN!!!!????/
I've never programmed in Java. But let's suppose that I have some remote desire to make a Java-based web applet. Do any of you know of a decent online tutorial that will show me how to get started on that? You may of course assume that I have a computer science degree from a reputable university. Al...
