Developer's Corner / Pay-What-You-Want dev deals from SourceForge
« on: April 07, 2016, 12:55 PM »
I already posted about the SourceForge Deals page, but thought I'd highlight the Pay-What-You-Want deals here.  Pay what you want, $1 minimum, beat the average price and get bonus items (extra wares or courses), and 10% of the proceeds go to charity. 
Get 'em quick, most are for limited times:

There will no doubt be others that pop up from time to time, and the ones that expire from Pay What You Want will probably still be available at a heavy discount through the main Developer deals page.  :Thmbsup:

Plug - A Short Film about robots raising the last human girl on earth.

Very nice.  Hope to see his project come to fruition.  :Thmbsup:

A couple of what I thought were far better than most I've seen lately. The first deals with a "forensic accountant," reviewing some cabin cam footage of a mercenary drop assault on a space colony. The second is a police story from a future NYC where police protection is provided solely as a commercial subscription service.

First one was good, if a bit depressing  (that gut-twist ending...), and the second I had seen before, but quite the thought-provoker.   :Thmbsup:

Here's one I recently found via FilmShortage:
Prism
Dan Warner is a Desaturator, tasked with sapping beauty from the world in a future where color is used as energy.

I assume you got a Sansa Clip Sport or Clip Jam?  Too bad those aren't supported by Rockbox, and probably never will be due to the unusual chipset that was obviously chosen for better battery life alone.   :mad:

I had an original Sansa Clip that served me well for almost 6 years, even going through the wash 3 times.  :o  Yes, the USB on that little thingummy was tight, but it got a little smoother after 10 or 20 recharges and music transfers.  After it finally died, I looked around at all the available Mp3 player options, and found that for my money, a $20 Wal-Mart Tracfone (the LG Sunrise which was on sale over Christmas; it's now $60...) with some extra MicroSD memory was going to serve me better as a music player, and upgrade my phone to boot, so I can recommend that route.  :Thmbsup:

General Software Discussion / Re: Cookies click driving me crazy
« on: April 05, 2016, 10:37 AM »
Apparently, it's to satisfy the EU "Cookie Law" that went into effect around 2004 or so, with the hard deadline being September 15, 2015.

What weirds me out is how the most popular Javascript cookie consent plugins on GitHub all use the phrase "Got It!" instead of "OK!"  :huh:
