For those who don't understand the term, this is the pager;
changing pages causes the url to change and a new page to load.
The problem is that the page is identical,
Currently I've 1 unread notification and a whole pile of read ones - this gives my notification area 3 pages how ever the "&page=3" bit of the URL changes I still see the same 1 unread notification and the same X read.
Presumably the idea here is that you could bring up the older ones - this for me at least does not currently work

Not far fetched - Christmas has a similar origin ( the winter solstice festival of jul - later renamed to mask the pagan connection).
Hell still is not officially post of Christianity, you can say a priest of you like. The main difference is duration as I understand it (hell being permanent)
Disclaimer: I am not a true believer, I just find the inconsistencies amusing

Except the concept of Hell isn't a Christian concept ( they have purgatory ) it comes from the Ase faith ( eg Forn Sidr ) where it's directly derived from Loke's daugther Hel ( see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hel_(being) )
I'm not trying to be offensive, but it is a tad amusing how supposed Christians can't even seem to get their faith straight :D

You might find it idiotic, but there is a fairly good reason why the lawyers are doing this.
1. You have to defend your brand if you want to keep it else you risk a summary judgement against you for not doing to when it 'matters' ( eg. when a large competitor uses your brand )
2. Their mooching off of tre doom brand dilutes it's value and may cause harm to the brand.
I doubt any one would batter if an eye if coca-cola squashed "coca cola: the refreshing rouge lite adventure", so I don't get why people are rushing to the defense of a game that obviously named it self after another larger game to attract attention.

New GOL site update released, read on for what’s new

For a site like this I wouldn't worry too much about doing continuous updating of the notification area - people tend to change pages often and close the site when not used, so there will be page loads enough.
Just do a single ajax request with page load to fill in user info {status, notification, etc} and you should be golden, doing it that way you can hard cache the rest of that page(varnish, filecache, etc).
At least that's what I did and it seems to work for ~6000 daily unique visitors ;)

A minority of a minority, can't be many games that satisfies your demmands.
If it's really that important you could always try and ask the developer if they want your help translating the game into Spanish. though I suspect that might ruin some of the game for you.

Quoting: Comandante oardoAnd.... No spanish support... No thanks..

Well merry Christmas me :D
My only complaint is that the tiles looks awfully scifi for a fantasy setting, hopefully something that can be amended with a little texture hacking.
Still I think I'll buy a hand full of these as early Christmas presents, one though, does cross platform multiplayer work? I've a few friends who've yet to see the penguin shaped light.

Hardware maker 'Razer' has joined The Khronos Group to back open standards
2 December 2016 at 6:26 am UTC
Unless I am missing something here they dont "make" them they "assemble" them using other companies hardware - much like dell, so that's not any reason to join a hardware manufactures standardisation group.
This in contrast to OSVR - which is why that was mentioned in the article ( of course I'm not the author but I am guessing that is why ;) )

What one game would blow your mind if it came to Linux & SteamOS?

At this point my mind is thoroughly blast proof when it comes to Linux ports.
But if Santa were to stuff Dishonored ( or shooting for the stars Dishonored 2 ) into the Linux stocking I'd be a very happy camper
