    new iPod, new iMac, PhotBooth

    *rips out hair* Arg.... This was unexpected, and I just purchased an iMac G5 /two weeks/ ago. Better video card, and Front Row. Ironically the rest of the improvements I don't care about, but dang. *pouts*

    Doom 3 Demo

    Doom 3 is seemingly murder on all Macs, regardless of what your specs are.

    WoW running real slow.

    Ironforge also consistently has more people sitting in or near it than ANY other spot in the game (other than the Horde city with their AH). In the case of Ironforge, it is the network causing the lag more than anything else because of a huge spike in network traffic. A couple PC users I know...

    FedEx Hates Apple Deliveries (at least in Madison, WI)

    My workplace actually has a policy of no personal packages... but of course, with a campus of 30 thousand in the Pacific Northwest, personal packages could cause some problems. ;) Buzzing them into the door isn't an issue either, it is just that they have /refused/ my requests to let the...

    FedEx Hates Apple Deliveries (at least in Madison, WI)

    Definitely sounds like that facility has some major issues when it comes to stuff coming from Apple's direction. The problem I usually have with UPS/FedEx/USPS is that anything that requires confirmation, I am never home for because I kinda have this thing called a job, and I live by myself...

    Halo is cool...?

    Only if it was discovered they were the Forerunners. :P

    Halo is cool...?

    Some of it is trash though... Like the theory that Earth was at the edge of the Halos' influence and was spared the full brunt (when the influence is 3 galatic radii from galactic center). Anyone who remembers, or has taken trig/geometry knows that 3 radii in this case means that the sphere of...

    FS: Mac Mini & Wireless Keyboard/Mouse

    Shipping is from 98178, and my eBay username is krevnik (for those who want to see my small amount of feedback). Item 1: Mac Mini - 1.25Ghz Model - 512MB RAM - No Airport / Bluetooth - 10.3.9 Factory Installed + 10.4 Upgrade DVD This was purchased in June, before the refresh, but was...

    Halo is cool...?

    What I find funny is that I played a couple missions in Oni on my new iMac G5, and then played a couple missions in Halo on the same machine. I recognized almost all of the major voice actors, over a dozen sound effects, and even some texture work that seemed to be shared between the two games...

    Why is this xml not loading into my html on a mac

    Another route is XSLT. It allows you to run an app over the XML document, and it will create another document using this scripted template. So, it is very possible to create a standard HTML document from the XML document which can be run when he makes a change to the XML document. (I use a...

    printf() miracle cure?!

    Not really noticed a problem like that, but are you really using: if((x > y) || (x < y)) {} ? If you are, it could easily be a bug in GCC trying to optimize that into an x != y.

    OpenGL vs. Quartz

    Yes, unfortunately MacOS X isn't always very good about doing 2D blitting through OpenGL. Quartz on the Mac goes through the 2D-optimized codepath of the video drivers, (or used to before unifying the graphics system under OpenGL entirely), while OpenGL goes through the 3D-optimized codepath...

    printf on Mac

    From what I can remember, [s]printf("Stuff\n") will simply push just the '\n' (0x13). Although if you are truly curious as to what is going on... you can write a quick app that finds line-breaks from stdin and checks what type they are. I could be wrong about what I remember, but a line-break...

    NSTimer + NSTask

    I can say this right now: the crash is not in the code you provided. The code, as written, should chug along just fine.

    Airport, Eyehome and a Windows PC

    Unfortunately, this is a little late, but I have an answer for you... The problem is that you were starting to clog the network and add latency to the streaming by routing the PC through the Mac to the EyeHome. And since everything is wireless, using WEP, that adds even more latency. More...

    UT2004 crashing repeatingly

    Yeah, sounds like a graphics card problem... I used to get lockups with my Radeon 7000 on my 8600, although that was because I was lacking a case fan at the time, and running the machine 24/7 for months. So it was little wonder that the card finally overheated one day and locked the machine up.

    UT2004 crashing repeatingly

    This is definitely strange, as I installed straight off the DVD, patched, and am running 10.4.1 with zero issues. Have had people playing for 2-3 hours without a single glitch. What is your RAM situation? Have you had RAM installed from places other than Apple, and if so, whom?

    IBM G5 Dual-Core 2.5 ghz

    What opus66 was trying to say with the "special from their chip" comment is that MacOS X is a hugely different beast than Windows in terms of resources it utilizes. Using the vector unit in a lot of places helps MacOS X perform quite efficiently, but at the same time, "requires something special...

    is it possible to program C on mac?

    It depends... from his post, it sounded like he was already using XCode for Java.
