D2TV mod commercial in disguise on c64.sk
Do you think this is fair:
"C64 D2TV PAL version hacked 01:03
The C64 D2TV PAL Version was hacked at Hobby & Elektronik 2005 Expo. The news is in german www.go64.de. But you can check the photo here. For those who are interested in C64 DTV (NTSC) hacking on their own, here is the info dtvhacking.info Alternative: for dummies Updated by CreaMD "
when you click on the "news" (go64.de) all what you find is a picture and sum text telling you how much it costs to order a modded D2TV.
What everyone (atleast me) would except when clicking there is about 15 pictures of the hack, and text on how to do it. But no, there's zero info about how they hacked it at the Hobby & Elektronik 2005 Expo. They just want your money.
Thats like when browsing for porn, and instead a gallery of a naked chick, you get 6 new window with porn advs. ;)

At this point I think it's too much to change c64.sk into some "this only" or "that only" category. As someone already posted, it's like a daily dose of C64 info/news.
" it's like a daily dose of C64 info/news." and I would like if it stayed like that. Plus I would like that sceners would post more about their work.
Cathegorisation would probably have 2 parts:
1: cathegory of content (expandable)... various types of release (will be probably compatible with CSDB).. ,
I think that for new releases added to CSDB there could be automatic news feed mead in cooperation with Perff. I'm already receiving e-mails after midnight, but adding it automatically would be the best thing. That way scener wouldn't have to add the release twice. Aalthough I like some originality in news text, so maybe it should be possible to add some additional news text to automatic news if anyone would like to.. mhm.. ;-)
2: type of news: retro, commercial, hardware, software, scene, I will have to think about this more.
What is important for me is that scene news can't be filtered out. The rest will be on visitors will.

So if I understood this correct (hello CreamD ;) ), then people can choose between C64 scene and other retro/misc C64 news, right? Because I like reading about retro & misc C64 news too (depending on what it is exactly about!).

You will choose what (except of scene news) you don't want to see. Scene news won't be filterable. |

Why not create a "c64bullshit.com".
Many people put interest into an ancient machine,but it is
clearly not appreciated by some.
Lets put them where they belong!!
Seriously now..
Why these bad-vibes about C64 related things?
You should rejoice that others also have an interest in
the Commodore!
I consider C64.sk as my newspaper related to the C64.
Many articles I skip,but there are some very good ones
every now and again.
And this stab at CSDb I really don´t understand?!
What is your problem??
Groepaz Problem is that he's anti-everything that's not reverse engineering and plain vanilla c64! ;-)
He's a nice chap and we all love him, but just don't listen to him when he starts his "nobody needs that" rants, he just loves promoting his own needs to the needs of the public! ;-)
Seriously: Who would ever object to News about the DTV or Slay radio on a c64 news site? There's really not that much happening in the c64 realm worldwide to have such strict rules! |

thats nonsense. what i'm against is things that arent *scene* (in this case _c64_ scene) but are presented in a supposed to be scene context. i'm a strong disbeliver of that "we can satisfy all" nonsense everyone seems to go mad about these days.

the original point is that there is a big difference between a "hey look you can buy your hacked dtv here" advertisement and whatever scene related news. no more no less. i would have loved to read a detailed article about the whole thing myself, but all that was posted was an advertisement.
and besides that, c64 scene is still one of the strongest moving scenes around, i dont think we need all that retro crap just to have more news. |
