Windows, being the laughed at victim of OS X, has been doing this for 12 years, out of the box! As a selfnote I ask myself this: Does the Unix command unzip -P password file.zip work on Macs?

I cannot really summarize the content in a picture so just check it out. It's filled with thousands of Flash-loops. Most are crap, some are genius.

But they are hard to (re)discover between thousands of crap gadgets. So it pisses you off when you discover the "Windows Easy Transfer" wizard didn't include them in it's backup when you are (re)installing Windows 7.

I must use Windows and Linux. Preferably at the same time. I like to use Windows for my creative work but I like the Linux toolset. And the most important part is that every machine runs a SSH daemon. With Windows 7 (and Vista but I skipped that), Microsoft has finally implemented their commercial... http://www.rednet.nl/vision/articles/237 http://www.rednet.nl/vision/articles/237 Fri, 08 Jan 2010 16:33:59 +0000 I am a thorough user of both Windows and Linux. Why? I hate both. So I am definitely no fanboy. There's only one thing I hate more than Windows and Linux combined, and that's OS X. Nah just kidding. I like Windows and Linux both. Windows has annoyed me more but since 7 it's pretty awesome. Windows Windows just works. (switch reader case anti-windows) Oh come on!

The crash-on-load you see for example on 'load game' or when the train from new game reaches the first loading point is not some wine error or incompatibility like I thought. It is in fact a file permission problem. Half-Life somehow just really really wants to write an update to the save folder even if you just load your game. And the logged on user who last played the game... http://www.rednet.nl/228 http://www.rednet.nl/228 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 00:18:49 +0000 As promised, here's the heaviest video of the moment! ouHPdyY-TqQ (Now, in HD if you go here!)

Finding public domain footage to use and fixing it for usability in a HD project turned out to be a days work. Another two days for editing the video and another two to figure how to work around the f4%!ing bugs After Effects and Première CS3 annoyingly have and that probably never get fixed because CS4 is in the stores now. Most annoying bugs I still ca... http://www.rednet.nl/226 http://www.rednet.nl/226 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:16:00 +0000 Yeah! I won the first Brandfighters battle with the videocompetition for GoFast.
