I have been using the service, although not to such a level that this would be a real problem for me. But then again, you shouldn't rely on free services, should you?

Living Room / Plea for help from programmer and blogger Xah Lee
« on: May 16, 2014, 02:38 PM »
Programmer and blogger Xah Lee who runs the ergoemacs.org web site posted a disturbing plea for help today

http://ergoemacs.org/misc/xah_as_good_as_dead.html

He's financially ruined, living from noodles and oats, close to homelessness.

I've been following his blog mainly because of his excellent information and reviews about ergonomic keyboards.

I have to admit I fail to understand how he managed to live in a place that cost him $1600 a month without having a job for years (if I understood that right).

Reminds me that it's about time again to approach my boss to send some more money towards the OSS we use :)

DC Gamer Club / Warhammer Quest for iOS
« on: April 12, 2014, 03:35 AM »
Warhammer Quest for iOS is currently free. It's an enjoyable round-based Hack'n'Slay game in the fantasy/dungeons genre, with a simple (and, unfortunately, not very well documented) rule set.

It's usually 5$ with the possibility to buy additional characters and levels as IAP.
