Question

Recommended Posts

  • 0

As I live in Europe, France exactely, why not include the system that is used for instance by WMWeather under Linux and that makes possible to use the world wide city weather codes that already exist !

For instance My town of Bordeaux in france has "LFBD" has code, which provide temp, wind speed, etc..... when you include it into a program for instance as wmweather ....

what about it ?

Great job!!! I like this a lot. Keep up the good work!

Neo your such a ditz, first off its a BETA bone head, so dont be quick to jump and spit out crap before you think. Matrox didnt have to do this at all for anyone, but he did because of the interest everyone has in it. and again it says BETA its not complete and I know Matrox will work further on it, if there is more interest in going futher with it and yes even including Canada.

I am glad all of you like it, err...most of you like it :)

Mike11212: Sure, but I would wait until Beta 2.

Syntax Error: Its made with VB6.

Xcert: What error? My guess would be that you dont have the correct runtime files. You can get them Here.

Mike11212: IIS is not required for this app to work, but a internet connection is. You may have to configure your firewall to allow it to access the internet.

Beta 2 is in the works. I am trying to add everything you all have requested.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
