It could do either. or neither. Don't think they know, just a shot in the dark that /might/ work people have volunteered to participate in.

Oh look, an anonymous coward talking shit. Of course sites can open apps on your machine, what do you think happens when you click a steam/discord link etc. designed to do exactly that. It's standard practise so be an intolerable dick elsewhere.

This isn't a square font so your hate symbol is squashed.

Do better.

If you stopped that long ago it would have been before the rise of systemd

You really need to concentrate your studies on that, it's changed pretty much everything from init onwards

(not for the better in my opinion but that's a bit of a holy war, regardless it's ubiquitous now so you need to know it)

Beyond that, things aren't very different.

He's another victim of the SJW culture war and we're the worse for it.

I grow tired of good people being taken down by these witch hunts, they even gave it a good go with Neil DeGrasse Tyson a while ago.

Anyone remember McCarthyism? We're heading down a very dangerous road here.

Hi

The NMI code was fixed by Amstrad, the +3 and +2A/+2B have the fixed code, this is actually detailed in the manual if you look up the system variable entry for NMIADD.

There are also many other good replacement ROMs for the Spectrum, most notably Open SE Basic which is a free and open source implementation of the Spectrum ROM.

But the main point I should make is that the vega will /already/ have the Spectrum ROM built in, just no way of controlling it. If you have a Vega just download a copy of the Dizzy Dice fruit machine game and choose the sinclair research option from the main menu, that should drop you into Basic.

I'm interested more in how hackable it will be, if it's using an ARM SoC and an emulator it'll probably be possible to get it to play other games, such as C64, SMS and NES games (particularly if it's running Linux which it almost certainly will be)

You didn't mention AC, heh.

PWM is the usual method of driving LEDs in the way you described and AC through a diode is just PWM with a 50% duty cycle in effect.

PWM and you didn't discover it, we've all been doing it for years.

There's always the possibility of a theory being falsified but in this case the answer is almost certainly no.

The big bang is not going to be invalidated, so say COBE, WMAP and PLANCK.

Also, it's actually less than 5% baryonic matter it seems, 4.4%

Be aware that dark matter is just matter we can't directly detect with our current technology (or just haven't /yet/), it's not something magical.

Actually we're talking about all operating systems, patronizing arse.

Microsoft just killed every single Skype related application that used Skypekit.

The mac clients, the linux clients and my Windows Trillian client.

This is nothing to do with the difficulty of supporting old hardware/architectures and everything to do with Microsoft pushing people towards their shite ad infested client.

The clients that worked yesterday would work today if MS had not actively broken them, it's that simple.

Here's a picture of a feminist:

It doesn't mean what you think it means.

(Women are nowhere near equal globally yet or even in western nations in a lot of ways, pay for the same work as a man, safety walking alone at night to name two, if you think that battle has been won you're deluded, there's still a lot to do.)

Hi

Have a Pandora myself, excellent little machine.

It would have likely been out a lot sooner but there was a financial crash in 2009 (you may have heard something about it) which caused a fair number of delays/problems. Also Paypal decided to mess OpenPandora about to a massive extent, even refunding everyone and blocking purchases at one point!
As if that wasn't enough, the first PCB manufacturer proved to be completely incompetent, shipping faulty boards, at one time bent boards and failing to replace them, give the money back or in fact do anything to put right their screwup, it was when ED moved production to Germany things started running much more smoothly.

It was never supposed to be only a gaming platform, it is a full linux system which fits in your pocket (it can also run other operating systems from SD card, RISC OS for one)

The UK operation suffered from being operated by a liar and a thief, this was unforeseeable. (incidentally, the same person (Craig) has run off with all the icontrolpad 2 Kickstarter money as well it seems after using other peoples money to buy himself 3d printers and so on.)

Yes, the spec isn't as impressive as it was when announced but it's still a useful system.

Incidentally, the Pandora's successor (The Dragonbox Pyra) is in development now and has a far better spec. Also a Craig free system (Yay!), you can read some information about that at http://www.pyra-handheld.com/ if you're interested.

Many companies make batteries, they're all more or less the same other than the obvious size/capacity differences.

Not so many make cars like that, I'd respectfully suggest the bond manager has flipped his lid!

Just finished rewatching those yesterday (including party games)

That series is apparently pretty bang on as far as how government (here) actually works. (David Blunkett was fond of referencing the odd episode too)
