LIMBO | Friday Game
When LIMBO became a part of the Linux gaming world through the latest Humble Indie Bundle, I knew I should take the journey right away. This game has won over 90 awards, and many gamers of all platforms consider it to be the best indie game ever. Time to have a more extensive look on this unique platform game…
Starting LIMBO is like throwing yourself in to another planet. You control a little boy who wakes up in the woods having no clue of what is going on, what happened, what you are searching for and what you should be afraid of. Everything is black and white, making the scenery more enchanting and more mystery enclosing.
Even after the very first few minutes, controlling the little guy is over. You ARE the little guy now. This atmosphere, these weird and somewhat frightening lights and sounds, the immediate awareness of the little boy’s fragility that comes from the childish way he makes every movement, all that adds up inside your heart and makes you another innocent victim of a highly successful game immersion situation.

This unique monochrome art doesn’t simplify the optical experience at all. In LIMBO, you get to see and enjoy every detail that matters, while at the same time get this dark ambient feeling. The music and sounds are well crafted too and very important danger precursors.
If you think this is a children’s game you are mistaken. Lurking creatures in the dark will kill you in the most inhuman way you’d expect from this game, making your heart beat faster every time. You can’t run fast, you can’t swim, you can’t jump very high and you can’t stand more than zero hits. This will make you watch your every step, and even if you know that you can continue from the last checkpoint, you still maintain this strong survival feeling.
Puzzles are really something LIMBO creators should be proud of. I found them all to be great, as they were difficult enough, and very different from each other. You may find yourself stuck somewhere as there is no hint to help you, but the solution is never far for him who has patience and imagination.
There is really no point in telling you anything about the story, or specific situations in the game. LIMBO is a childish nightmare that you have to live on your own from the beginning to the end. You are the one who dreams and you can interpretate what you see in your own way. The game itself is made to put you in to such emotional and intellectual situation, as you won’t really find a standard storyline that will clear things up.

Larry Page is not being completely honest! The manner in which the PRISM program/project works does not need access from company administrators or owners, so called “direct access”; the access to the information is already there. These tech company CEOs take for granted the actual intelligence of most end users of their products. All it takes is a little digging and reading to go from ignorant to informed on these things especially on exactly how the internet works/functions in the U.S.A. I find Larry Page’s remarks just as laughable as Al Gore’s claim to “inventing” the internet/world wide web!
If you, as an end user, are reading this post; I challenge you to research these matters yourself. It really is quite simple with all the “information sites” that exist on the web today ie Wikipedia, & other online encyclopedias that actually list source material, as well as highly respected tech sites and blogs that also list their source material. Be warned: this is only the tip of the iceberg and these tech CEOs know and understand this; they are scrambling in attempt to perform DAMAGE CONTROL to save the company and what little trust thay have left from their products end users/consumers.
Am I a skeptic? I believe someone has to be or needs to be at this point in time! If your not just a little skeptical of the government, tech companies, and the people that are in charge of these agencies and companies; you need to be, even if just a little skeptic. For your own personal protection and security! I know I was a part of this community for over 14 years!

As I understand it so do VLC use same encoders as ffmpeg. And yes, there are less code that can break when you use command line instead of a graphical UI.
And may I ask what mono has to do with VLC? *facepalm*

Just some thoughts about Java.
OpenJDK7 are now THE Java implementation and Oracles are just one more of the reimplementations. So you should not need to install Oracles version.
And you really don’t need to remove the OpenJDK7 installation to also have Sun Java JDK 7. Just run
sudo update-java-alternatives –list
and select which java you want to have as default java of all that is installed.
And if you want to run a program with one special version, check manpage for java-wrappers how to do that.
man java-wrappers
so you can run java program rasterizer like this:
JAVA_FLAVOR=openjdk rasterizer
JAVA_ARGS=-Xmx80m rasterizer
JAVA_BINDIR=/usr/share/
etc

Yes, it is. If you are a “5 years old schizophrenic kid” who can’t restrict what effects to use and what to not use. It’s actually usefull, if you can restrain yourself.

Agree with BA. You should teach how to remove telnetd from your servers, and tell them to use SSH instead.
And explain that telnet is not secured. It’s easy for anyone to see what you type in clear text or MIM-attacks.
Or you might want to add a kerberos version of telnetd and se to it that it denies any try without kerberos authorization.
The tool telnet is usefull, for example to explain how SMTP protocoll or HTTP-protocoll works by making the user be the client (mail client or web client).
But you do not need to install telnetd for that.
