  1. Expansion of the genre list isn't really something we're interested in doing. To be perfectly honest, it's a little unwieldy as it is with three genres.

    Perhaps, but I do think you're missing out on a major opportunity to really help inform listeners. If I may:

    • Completely totally definitely techno
    • Not techno but dubstep so who gives a shit?
    • Skrillex
    • Techno breakbeat percussion but has violins in it for some reason?
    • DDR Soundtrack
    • Techno with a bassline that is kind of the same but kind of different from another techno song. The lines are kind of blurred on this one
    • Sounds REALLY AWESOME on ecstasy

  2. Hello friends. It's been a long time since I've been on the forums. Those of you who have seen me in person know that I stay involved, but I've also gotten super busy with lots of other commitments. And that is actually why I'm messaging you today:

    I am a part of a project called ReACTor, a social innovation project currently in the semfinals of the TEDx Fulbright Social Innovation Challenge. There's lot more information available on the site, but long story short it's a mobile gaming app to help encourage activism around news stories people care about. If we get enough votes, we can present this at the upcoming TEDx Fulbright event in DC. Please vote for us, and pass it along to your friends as well.

    Technically, you're supposed to like the Fulbright Association page first, but those who don't want to do that can just say they did and enter their email. This is the Fulbright Association, so they're not in the habit of spamming people and making a buck off your address. I figure you guys would be interested in this because, y'know, gaming.

    The deadline for voting is midnight on Sunday the 30th (tomorrow as of this posting). Once the contest is over, I'll change this post to one about social innovation in general.

  3. Good thing it's alive, too, because I had a question:

    I downloaded and installed this on my Mac a little while ago, but I've never really opened it or fooled around with it. But just today, I checked out the process threads because my computer seemed to be making a lot of noise with the small amount of activity I was doing on it. Sure enough, FAHCore was running at something like 300%, and the process would always return whenever I canceled it. As I mentioned, I haven't opened the FAH software for months, so I don't know why the thread would be running, but I didn't want the thread to be running without my say-so, so I uninstalled it.

    I'd be interested in running FAH at night when I'm not using my computer, but I want to enable and disable the software at will. Is that possible, and if so, how?

  4. I can't quite tell from your post: Does Chrome/Mac work for you and are you able to use the site as it stands?

    Yup.

    Or are you still using a PPC-based Mac (where this player wouldn't work)?

    Nope.

    Is the issue that you're just looking for a better native Mac app for playing chiptunes?

    Yup.

    Because I don't think porting these players to JavaScript would facilitate native desktop apps (unless using something like Adobe AIR).

    No, no, what I meant was if that encoding/decoding the chipfiles can be done with Javascript (though I looked in your code and wasn't exactly sure where that was happening), then it shouldn't be difficult to replicate it with Objective-C.

  5. Oh wow, it's been, like, a while since I've come round these parts. Grad school will do that to you, I guess.

    I just finished up my first semester at Georgetown's Communication, Culture & Technology program. The final assignment for my Network Technologies & Society class was to write a science fiction story using a number of the words and concepts we had discussed in class (that's what the underlined words are, before anyone asks). As some of you may know, I've had a story idea kicking around my skull for years, so I took this opportunity to finally put my fingers to the keys and write a condensed version. If you have an interest in technology, properties of the brain, or just want to support me, I think you'll find it an entertaining read.

    However, since the thing is 25+ pages long, there is no way in the Higgs-Boson I am posting it here. So we're gonna have to rely on that clankety old "EE-lec-tron-ic mail" stuff y'all may remember. Indicate your interest, and provide your email if I can't stalk your forum profile and find it there.

  6. For sale:

    One (1) softmodded Wii system plus peripherals, which include:

    All standard cables & equipment (oversized plastic wiimote jackets, composite cables, standard infrared emitter, etc.)

    Component cable (the one with three separate channels for video)

    Battery-powered infrared emitter (that you don't have to attach to the Wii)

    Wii Sports foam peripherals that can be attached to the Wii (golf club, bat, etc.)

    Two (2) Wiimotes with:

    Standard Nunchuck attachments

    Slim-fitting jackets (much better than the standard ones, trust me)

    Rechargeable battery packs & a recharge station

    Asking $220 for the whole shebang.

    I also have several storage media with all sorts of ready-to-play games that I've tested on my Wii many times over, but selling those will have to be a one-on-one negotiation.

  7. It's both.

    There were two sets of video and audio clips. One video had one set of audio, and another video had another set of audio.

    I import all the video clips into my project, which of course meant the audio was attached to them.

    I want to maintain the audio from ONE of the clips, while overlaying the video from the OTHER clip, all from within iMovie.
