Wow Golan you are coming off as a bit bitter here -- it's quite unwarranted. I'm not bitter. I was simply stating facts. I guess I hit a nerve. Sorry you don't feel this has been noteworthy. The thousands of other people must just be wrong. Not wrong, ignorant. Most people don't have the technical ...

In response to those saying this is "cheating" - I submit that I never once claimed this was a native TCP IP situation on the VIC. I used a small PC "box". You're confusing cheating with lying (not that anyone accused you of either). Semantics and your protestations aside, the V...

Re: New Gadgets You Like or Want

I've been very interested and suspicious of the Multi Platform Portable Gaming Entertainment Station , a portable game and media player. They're not bad actually but that place you linked to is charging $150! That's highway robbery considering they can be had for about $85 (and with free shipping f...

I figure there's two ways to do this. Write a native VIC-20 Twitter client or use the VIC-20 as a terminal that communicates over RS-232 to a machine running a command line Twitter client/Twitter API. Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem. My money is on the latter.

Looks like Syd is publicizing the crap out of this one because I just saw this mentioned on Gizmodo. I posted a plug for Denial (it can't hurt) but it hasn't been approved yet.

We don't need a parliament, we only need a king? Prorogation is not the solution here as the king is laid-back to a fault. As Barry sang, "Too much of anything is not good for you, baby". Anyway, we've had similar discussions before and they always fell upon willfully deaf ears so I'm not...

I'm with Boray on this one. If it's about Denial, it belongs in General.

Slightly OT observation: I'm amazed by the number of moderators and issues with moderation here at Denial given the small number of members and amount of posts. Definitely a case of too many chefs.

I don't see why not. Have a look at this if you're curious how it works.

When I brought up screenshots I wasn't really thinking about being able to verify submissions. I was just thinking it would make the page more visually appealing. I must admit that I find screenshots intriguing (no idea why). That's why I follow the games competition threads at Lemon so intensely ev...
