Ruby Ack, no. I find it shocking that Ruby doesn't equate 0 to false. Horrible! NeoThermic Why is that a bad thing? it prevents such elegant coding: foo = 0 if (foo) end For that in Ruby would still execute the if block. Any other decent language would not, for false == 0. There's a reason ...

Yeah, don't start with PHP... I'd advise not touching it at all, really, unless you need to do server-side web stuff and you have no other choice. While I don't like it myself, Python is probably a good place to start. That's exactly the situation I was in when I started. My webhost doesn't support...

Is there any good model out there with a reasonable price? Well, for the AU$170 you can get it for here, the 9800GT is a great deal... if he's looki...

Dang, now I feel bad about my DS having broken shoulder buttons and a dislocated screen hinge. Maybe I should try picking up a Lite cheap. The only issue I see here is that all of DEFCON's appeal (at least for me) is in the multiplayer, yet most of the time when I'd want to play a handheld (i.e. in ...
