Check out Unity 3D, a multi-platform 3D IDE focused on letting you use 1 of 3 languages (Javascript, C# or a Python variant) to do all the scripting of your game objects. It's extremely awesome and fun work and I've seen some great games created with it. It makes it all the better that they can run on Mac and Windows, on the desktop or via the browser. Sad for Linux folks who can't play their games yet though. http://www.unity3d.com/

MS are refusing to say anything about this error so far, so I am one of many spreading the word around the gaming community to hopefully get this problem included in MS's extended warranty for the RROD. Feel free to contact me for any more information or threads on the internet about this. Thanks, Wayne Bosch"

Submission + - What's the best chair for a geek? 2

Submitted by Uglor on Saturday November 03, 2007 @06:21PM

Uglor writes: My latest in a long line of cheap office chairs broke, spilling me to the floor in a less than dignified manner. I need to buy a new chair for my desk at home. For the last several years I have been buying the same generic $50 black executive office chair. They usually last a year or two, then break. I spend 8 hours at work in a pretty decent office chair, then usually come home and spend several hours more in front of my computer. I'd like to buy a decent new one that will actually last. Does anyone have suggestions?

My criteria are:

1. Tough: I spend 12 hours a day in a chair. I'm hefty, so the chair needs to support me.
2. Comfortable: I want to be able to stand up from a 6 hour gaming session without my ass being numb.
3. Affordable: The less the better. More than the $50 cheapies I normally buy is ok, but no $1000 Aerons.

Submission + - DMCA lawsuit for circumventing coupon print limits

whoever57 writes: A Fremont, CA man (John Stottlemire) who claims that he was trying to show his skill in order to get a job at Coupons, inc. created a program and showed people how to delete the files and registry entries that limited the printing of coupons using software from coupons.com. He now faces a lawsuit, from Coupons, inc., alleging DMCA violations. The company alleges that his actions are equivalent to those of DeCSS creator "DVD Jon". Mr. Stottlemire asks how deleting files off one's own computer can be illegal, while some lawyers suggest that the DMCA is very broad and may apply in this case.
