Impact Is Now Free & Open Source
My HTML5 Game Engine Impact launched almost 8 years ago. The last update was published in 2014. While Impact still works nicely in modern browsers, it lacks support for better graphic and sound APIs that are now available. I felt increasingly bad for selling a product that is hardly maintained or improved.
So as of today Impact will be available completely for free, published under the permissive MIT License.

Remember to add “AddDefaultCharset utf-8” for your twtxt file if you’re using apache. Otherwise browsers will serve cp1252. The twtxt clients won’t care but maybe someone is watching your file with a browser?
Magic 8-balls are really awesome. Both answers are kinda perfect…
@tx@0x1A4.1337.cx I think there’s just a charset=utf-8 missing to see it correctly in the browser. It’s fine in a terminal.

Space for the dead
I read an article today on The Guardian, which showed up on the eight page of Hacker’s News. It talks about the lack of space for the dead, in the world of the living.
“Some 55 million people are reckoned to pass away each year (about 0.8% of the planet’s total population – equivalent to 100% of England’s). Yet urban planners and developers focus overwhelmingly on accommodating and making money from the living. Ceme … ⌘ Read more

No you can not skip qml if you plan to use qtquick. Without qtquick you don’t get the nice animations etc. Yes you can write the business logic in some other language, but it is also possible to write it in JS instead. Especially with small simple apps is probably a good idea using … ⌘ Read more

To Tampa back and forth
In the last five days I have been in Tampa four times, twice by myself and twice with Kim and KM. One may say it is only 90 miles each way, not a biggie, but once it is done several times consecutively it does makes a difference.
Three days ago we thought we had the perfect apartment there but this morning Kim thought otherwise and, as quite often, she was right. She saw another apartment, just 2.8 miles … ⌘ Read more
