GTA:IV-ever
April 28th 2008, 21:28 CEST by CheesyPoof

Talk, play, bitch, whatever.

The game is getting A+'s and 10/10 all over the place, including the tight wads at EuroGamer.

We must also strike while the iron is hot to organize any PC play sessions, 360 only, sorry Bob. And doubly sorry to PC only gamers (sorry Dum).

What about StuffIt? I remember that name from the Macs in my highschool's computer labs.

Google sez UnRarX or Gumby. But google also sez there actually is a Mac version of WinRAR.

Heh. How do you, like, unrar stuff? Any specific good programs for that? I'm so delightfully lost in this Mac universe.

Unrarx is free and seemed to work for me when I needed to get into a rar file.

There's no GUI version of WinRar, so LOSE.

You know I love you, but next you're going to ask how to unrar things on windows or linux right? Because any of these can be found with a simple google search... ;)

Why would you need a GUI version of WinRAR when you can just integrate the command line actions into the shell?

Clearly the solution is to run Fusion in unity mode and use WinRar.

Shell integration on a mac, how do you do that with only one mouse button?

Whenever I need to unRar a file, I double click on it. UnRarX handles the rest.

It's some tough shit, living with a "one button" mouse...even though I can just hit the trackpad with both fingers and get a right click out of it.

OK, so I have the Iphone 3g. Good points, the the audio decoding thread has highest priority, and it tries to sneak onto wifi whenever possible. Downsides: the stupid minimalistic apple UI philosophy. If I want to skip forward one minute in a track? I can't. The gimped official API that doesn't allow you to futz with the music. The retarded playlist system. The fact that on a PC you need itunes installed for it to even recharge over the usb cable. The fact that there are never any error messages, just a crash to desktop.. No background threads, no internet sharing, no a2dp? Not only that they made it to small to have decent battery life.

 So I now drag around 2 phones. An 8525 for business, and the iphone for looking cool and listening to music.

Under good points on the iPhone you forgot to list kickass games like Aurora Feint and Enigmo.

No background threads does suck, I agree.

Also, slightly disappointing is the fact that it's not multitouch, but just a trackpad with math to calculate 2 points of contact. Meaning they just take an electrostatic field array and do math on it's size to determine if you are using one or two fingers. Three fingers confuses the hell out of it. I look forward to a true multitouch system like Surface because by using an IR camera you can have an almost infinite number of simultaneous contact points being used as inputs, allowing for a far more natural UI.

3 points od input are good for 3d interfaces. That whole 3 on 3 thing. There's also the task of emulating real world devices, such as mixers, equalizers, and hardware that was designed for people with ten fingers, an d not just two. Things like a keyboard. Kind of handy.

There may or may not be interesting things one can do with an interface that can deal with three touch inputs instead of two, but let's not get silly with this talk of keyboards and whatnot in the iphone's form factor.  You're not going to involve ten fingers, or more than two fingers really on one interface plane in a device that size anyway.
