For me at least, compiz fusion on linux runs faster than XP does after 8 months without a reinstall.

But I do have a newer PC that can handle those graphics.

Well you can have homework on one desktop, and forums open in the other! It's actially really useful for following tutorials and stuff, because you can just Ctrl + Alt + left / right back and forth between the guide and whatever you're doing without having to minimize and maximize, among other thing...

Yeah, the cube is one of my favorites.

The only problem I have with Ubuntu linux right now is it uses Firefox beta 3 with is slow, buggy, and tends to crash. Firefox 2 is WAAY better.

That's a good idea, but I want it to say "You Fail" every time she runs it. Plus, having be gibberish might tip her off to the idea that she needs to copy over the program AND the variable at the same time. I think if I just put the hidden variable in Str9 or something she won't know how t...

waeV, you should know that there is no unbreakable copyright protection possible, partly since the cpu will need some starting point to begin doing something with the program. And if the CPU has it, anyone has it. And then, no matter how you encrypted the program, anyone could use the starting poin...

Why I'm Learning Assembly

The reason I got into assembly is pretty funny, I think. I planned to make a program in TiBasic and have some form of copy protection on it, and my friend challenged me to make a form of copy-protection that she couldn't break. I accepted, but the problem was that everything I could think of could b...

Okay, that makes sense, thanks a ton.

In regard to the tutorial, I hadn't read day 16 yet. I've been sort of skimping on "vocabulary" if you will and focusing on technique, looking up a command when I need to use it. The 28 days' tutorial on user variables just threw me for a loop.

Ok, so trying to understand the meaning behind all this code; ld de,OP1 How does this "put the name in OP1"? To me it looks like this is loading the value of OP1 into de. ld hl,matrixJ Ok, so this loads hl with the location of the matrix. ldi ;(or load BC with 4 and ldir) ldi ldi ldi What ...

[TI-84 ASM] Reading From Regular Variables?

Hi everyone, I have been following the "Learn TI-83 Plus Assembly in 28 Days" and want to make a program that checks if matrix J has been changed when it starts to run. I have been trying to understand the way that explains "User variables", but it doesn't give any examples. As I...
