http://steamcommunity.com/dev OpenID exposes my steam ID, which can then be linked to my stats, my steam username, etc if I understand correctly. edit after short discussion with Sky: The forum stores your steam id, but it is only visible for those with moderator access or higher. So if you...

I do of course agree with you that we shouldn't support illegal use. Our disagreement is over whether illegal use can be handled by moderators and the community itself or if mandatory validation is required. To make the validation as painless as possible, can you integrate it with the forum...

Thanks.

Over 400 forum users did not. In addition, a 1 million silent majority downloaded ESF and never signed up to the forum. I don't think we should take away the support they can get by reading the support FAQ and the support forum. Sure our current fanbase trusts us and will sign up through that...

Garry's Mod is being sold. Sure they have some incentive for extra security. We on the other hand don't gain anything by protecting our downloads. There are valid reasons not to hook up your steam account to your ESF account (privacy, not trusting our shady looking steam login, laziness). I...

Agreed. I don't think we need to do valve's legality checking for them. As far as I'm concerned, the validation system is only to hook up awards etc to your forum account if you're interested in that.

Yup, that's our set of automatic tests. We now have over 100 automatic test cases that we can run in a program to see if parts of the code still works as it should. The good thing, compared to manual testing is that you can run them very quickly (within 1 minute) and that you can rerun the same...

It's not like it's a whole lot better in coalition based political systems. Sure the individual parties are a bit more extreme in their points, but once the coalition is formed, those extremes are mellowed out and you always end up near the same center. Rather than choosing between economic...

So he can watch news shows and documentaries paid by Dutch tax-payer money that are published by political or religious parties?

For the drawing the line task, you don't have to solve an equation. Since the equation is 2x+3y=6, there are 2 variables and only one equation, so there is no way to solve this anyway. You made small mistake in trying your solution: 2x=6-3y rather than 2x=6+3y so x = 3 - 3/2y 2(3-3/2y)+3y=6...

You were on the right track. As an alternative to Grega's explanation: x: amount of chocolate y: price of one chocolate (before prices were raised) As you said before price raise: x * y = 120 A price raise of 25% means that the price of one chocolote is 1.25x the price it was, so the new price...

If you assign variables, start out with assigning variables to the thing you want to know (number of 330g packages, number of 500g packages in the first question). Sometimes you can then just go through the text and write all information on those variables in formula form (e.g. x+y=140, x *330+...

Or without introducing all them dummy variables: after the first purchase he has 2/3 of his money left. after the 2nd 3/4th of 2/3 = (2/3)*(3/4) = 6/12 = 1/2 after the 3rd half of that: (1/2)*(1/2) = 1/4 So 1/4 of his money is 18kn, 4 * 18kn = 72kn

The first Dune book is a classic and is very readable, it gets kinda heavy in the later books, you might or might not like that. I did like the prequels a lot. The Dark Tower series by Stephen King is another must-read.

We ride off into the sunset. On emu-backs.

We've toyed with the idea, but it's just too much work for pretty death animations, since it would involve making customarily physical representations for every character (capsule man for collision with the environment). You can't really use them for anything but death animations, since the...

Triple-screen goodness:

Meh, same rules were violated by practically all euro-countries. It would be rather hypocritical to kick them out now. Perhaps it was not such a good idea to share a currency with a bunch of countries with no way to enforce financial management on each-other though. But we'll set up some fund...

Short term: borrow Greece 110 billion euro and pray the don't go bankrupt. Long term: set up some fund that can help out EU-members in financial trouble under strict conditions. There's also some talk about actually enforcing maximum budget deficits for the euro-countries, but that will...

That's what's good about them. Minus the keys popping off, never happened to me on any of my 3 or 4 model M's. @Green: you can remove all keys from a model M, clean it and put it together again.
