Video games make the Baby Buddha cry

Video games make the Baby Buddha cry 05/19/2004 05:47 PM
The new Pratimoksha (Buddhist Monastic Code) is out, and it has lots to say about spending too much time with the Interweb and ot enough with your Buddha nature:

44. A bhikshu who has his private e-mail account with the result that he spends an inordinate amount of time in making unnecessary communications or communications which foster attachment commits an offence for which he must express regret...

46. A bhikshu who plays electronic games including those on the computer, commits an offence for which he must express regret.

A New Gaming Engine That Can Make Games
More... Real?

A New Gaming Engine That Can Make Games
More... Real? 12/22/2003 02:10 AM
The graphics in computer video games are certainly getting better and better with each generation. However, they're reaching the "good enough" point, such that people are beginning to focus more and more on the actual game play, rather than the game look. When they do that, they notice that many games are... well, repetitive and predictable. So, is there a way to make games unpredictable in a realistic way that doesn't require massively powerful new hardware? That seems to be the plan of Condition30, a Canadian company that believes they've been able to create more realistic gaming engines that involve giving the engine some basic parameters, and letting it figure out the rest - in order to ensure that the end results are a lot less predictable and (hopefully) a lot more realistic. The article is pretty short on details, and raises the skepticism alarm in the back of my head. One thing going for the company, though, is that among the founders is JD "Illiad" Frazer of User Friendly.

Now that I have a phone that takes some impressive photos (This shot is probably the best example I've seen for color, depth, and light that the little cam can capture), I really wish iPhoto could manage my images instead of my preview-free bluetooth file browser.

I bet it'd be trivial for Apple to enable connections via Bluetooth (to your paired devices) to import photos.

Apple Looking To Make iPods Droppable

Apple Looking To Make iPods Droppable 12/24/2004 12:18 PM
My IBM Thinkpad has a feature where it tries to recognize if the laptop is falling, and if it is, to protect the hard drive to (hopefully) prevent damage. It appears tha Apple has been working on a similar technology for the more-likely-to-be-dropped iPod. Apple apparently filed for a patent on the technology in June 2003. It's unclear from the article if IBM filed for a similar patent, but if they had it's likely they did so earlier, because the Thinkpads started including the feature in October of 2003.

Sources: Asustek to make iPod mini for
Apple 09/03/2004 08:23 AM
Asustek Computer has received OEM orders for the iPod mini digital music player from Apple Computer, according to market sources. Asustek is the second Taiwan-based manufacturer of the digital devices since Inventec Appliances also produces the iPod for Apple. Asustek will assemble and ship the iPod to Apple from its plant in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province (China), the sources said.

The iPod orders will help Asustek in working toward its goal of becoming a key provider of consumer electronics products, the sources noted. In related news, Inventec is expected to continue to supply Apple with its current iPod models. In addition, Inventec is also likely to secure orders for a similar version of the iPod from Hewlett-Packard (HP), the sources said. Apple and HP entered into an agreement earlier this year for HP to resell the iPod under the HP brand.

Asustek and Inventec both declined to comment on the report, citing client confidentiality
