The ZIF connector on the original NES was unreliable. The carts are perfectly reliable. The NES 2 does not have the ZIF connector and doesn't have issues.

Halo is basically an extension of the Marathon storyline. I do miss Myth and Oni though.

Plausible, although your definition of the word readable may vary. In fact, I believe this is how the minecraft modding community operates (or operated), although they are starting with java bytecode which is much higher level so probably h

The learning curve is deathly steep, so I suggest starting with watching hundreds of hours of other people playing on youtube. Then getting the lazy noob pack.

Probably a lot. My guess is something similar happens with commercial software. Some commercial software that everybody loves dies, and the community cries out for it to be open sourced. Meanwhile, everyone that ever worked on the codebase

You can also just double-click on the title bar. I used to be mad that they switched the meaning of the + button, but once I discovered the double click trick I have been happy. I think it is even more convenient. Another thing that made me

Yes. I didn't know that! It looks like it was a PowerPC that wasn't used in any macs though.

I'm pretty interested in this, but it seems the ftp links might be broken? Does anyone have a backup of this?

Cap'n Magneto was my favorite game growing up, along with Dark Castle. I also spent a ton of time writing World Builder games and Hypercard stacks later. I doubt I would be a programmer today, if BASIC and world builder hadn't bee

It was the GameCube that used PowerPC. The original Xbox used a Pentium III.

Sure, but I think it's fair to call a train that is powered with electromagnetic pulses from stationary coils something different than a train that is powered by an onboard engine.

It does mention it, briefly: > This is enough information to uniquely identify source code from crates.io, because the registry is append only (no changes to already-published packages are allowed).

You probably could produce the same effect with a Van der Graaf, but a Tesla coil produces a pulsating e field, while a Van der Graff produces a static e field, so there is a possibility of some difference. It would be very interesting to d
