  1. i only found out about it a couple of week ago when a colleague went on a camping weekend, with the side task of finding 5 geocaches in the area. he came back and said he couldnt find any, coz the coordinates were just fields n shit. so i think geocaching is a nice idea, but it's a pain in the arse. my colleague is smart and has only managed to find 2 out of 7 geocaches, so i'm thinking cba tbh.

  2. Well, video game programming is notoriously mathematical, which means you need to be pretty good. so I don't see why you would have a problem applying for any regular programming jobs in your chosen language - except that you don't have a degree.

    I've been to University, in the UK, and here I wouldn't be able to get a job without my degree - but if you can you're very lucky. Right now, I get the impression you don't have a job, or are just about to finish school - so your priority is getting a job, don't be picky, you need an income. Once you have that, you have all the time in the world to think about what you really want to do.

  3. you're talking about image preloading which is usually done in javascript, but is not advisable.

    the "best" solution is to reduce the number and size of images on your web page so it loads faster.

  4. I'm actually interested in a black hoodie with the hak5 logo on the front.

    I was kinda put off by the size of the tee, it seemed too long for it's width - by several inches, i'm picky like that. The hoodie sounds good tho, and Winter's coming up.

    Similarly I'm not that interested in stickers, they're a bit too permanent. I'd get a couple of those removable window sticker things if those were available.

    More schwag variation please,

    /signed.

  5. I had never heard of Rev3, I don't own a TV.

    There are slightly more ads now, but Hak5 always had adverts, I don't mind.

    Hak5 is now twice weekly, instead of once monthly, or once neverly. So that's good, right?

    Verdict: FTW.

  6. Yeah, only problem being that £299 = $600. I hate the UK for electronics, such a rip off. I've been looking at these baby laptops for a while, but haven't found one that ticks all the boxes. OK so they're small enough to carry, and if you already carry a laptop its a godsend. But... I have a laptop, and I don't carry it. I don't really need a laptop, but I would like portable internet access.... on a phone, with a screen bigger than my pinkie, that didn't cost £600. Maybe someday. </rant>

  7. What if you sneeze on it?

    I do like the large fan on the top though.

    I always thought airflow was important, which is why leaving the side off your case makes it hotter rather than cooler. This has 0 airflow?
