  1. hmm on Pictures Leaked of 3 new Palm handhelds · · Score: 0

    perhaps it's time for me also get a handheld, everyone else seems allready to have =) tho i have TI-86 but thats not much of a handheld but with couple apps it could do some jobs of handheld... Perhaps somebody can fit Linux into it? ;) that would be nice hack =D Is it possible even? atleast it has CPU and memory but does those make it possible or is the low memory amount limit?

  2. finally someone has some balls on Video Games Assigned as Homework · · Score: 0

    Finally someone has some balls to even try somehting like that =D I'd like games which teach things to you, i'd like to see a version of Uplink (introversion.co.uk) where it would be based on real world models for example... where you'd need to use iptables or ipchains to conf your firewall on the gateway, whre youd need to run nmap to see does your target has what services etc... Learning by gaming would simply rock, after that people could have sametime fun and learn stuff =) or perhaps counter strike where you'd need to know howto dissassemble annd assemble your weapon ? or perhaps a racing simulator where you'd had a clutch and as realistic driving model as possible, making you to learn how to drive first, then howto drive fast and then howto drive fast and not blow your engine, clutch nor burning braking discs =D

  3. good job on Running 100,000 Parallel Threads · · Score: 0

    Good job Ingo Molnar! Fantastic performance rise but how about stability, is it less or more stabile? i hope that atleast same level of stability.

  4. nuttin special on Build Your Own Subwoofer · · Score: 1, Insightful

    There isn't anything special on making a woofer by yourself, first i thought that the dude made the element by himself but naawh... You really don't need much skill to make a subwoofer, just some maths and a little skills to make the casing. If you have proper tools it shouldn't even take long for an experienced woofer builder. With experienced i mean knowing the little tips & tricks to avoid hazzle and problems. tho, that woofer probably sounds nice but there isn't anything special... i wonder where ./ is going with news like this, do they wanna do a news report when i assemble my next woofer? lol Or perhaps some of my other projects like liquid cooling to make cpu run at -15 to -10 celsius degrees, or perhaps mobo box sized server... NOTE TO MODDERS: I didn't want to troll but there simply isn't any idea to report stuff like this, there isn't anything special on making a subwoofer by yourself.

    Well, by the time i posted that i was about goto sleep and noticed that slashdot haven't posted it up and decided to post it, i try to avoid same news than slashdot has, apparently Slashdot was just slow on this one. About visitors, well visitors dropped very highly after problems with windows at nearly a week downtime. Thanks to windows site has needed to be rebuild, redesigned and all content was lost, or actually nearly all but haven't yet added the old stuff, links & downloads... Perhaps next time i use some timestamping device to make people believe ;) And why to care? Well dunno, i used to think slashdot being fast on news but was very selective... well apparently not...

    what is this, a club to own old computers?
    i couldn't do a day with some 333mhz celeron, it would simply lag too much for my habits...
    and i do not even play games... i simply irc, surf, read and write mail, code and script stuff, sometimes make some graphics, and thats about it...
    what sucks my computing power then?
    well nothing but i like things to run fast and faster, without delays opening up etc...

  17. Re:My current CPU is 3+ years old on Chip Makers Selling Fewer High-End CPUs · · Score: 1

    that isn't even expensive:
    Athlon XP 1800+ around 110-120e or so now
    2x40Gig new would cost around 200e but one 80g costs around 120-135e
    Motherboard around 100e
    2Gb of ram, that costs a bit, around 320e i'd say
    also video card around 300-320e
    then all the other cheaper stuff around 100e and a case with 100e
    without buying a new monitor:~1090e with monitor about 1300e to 1500e depends on the monitor.

    yeah perhaps people have noticed that they don't need the fastest cpu around
    although, i have AMD Athlon XP 1800+ (1.53Ghz), 512Mb DDR 266Mhz, and i want more power, i hate every god damn delay when i use my computer.
    and i do not play games nearly at all, i try some of the newest games, like at couple past days i have been playing a bit ut2k3 demo, but not very often, atleast very new games, only classics like cstrike.
    but i hate all the other delays... waiting to mozilla open, boot up time(when i actually do reboot...)
    to put it short: i simply want more cpu power and memory bandwidth. PERIOD. =) (waiting for hammers to be released....)

  19. nice idea on Product Placement in Online Gaming · · Score: 1

    i actually thought a week or so backwards about this while playing neocron beta, there was commercials all around, why not to replace them with real world commercial to drop the price for end-users?
    that would give companies good publicity, money to developers and make the game cheaper for players, all around good solution...
    well everything has it's downside, on the company selection developers would need to be clear what they want etc...

    so we have a solution, time to start making software =)
    so we use VoIP, eachh side having a modem and we crypt that VoIP channel...i just wonder how it would be most easiest achieved... should it be just a normal modem call to net, i mean in similar fashion, sametime creating a network... nawh, then internet should be used probably...
    well i don't actually care, it is not my problem, somebody else can make a practical solution =D

    i didn't know those will need to be approved by Austel (i do not live in australia, and actually i don't know is it needed here) Also there isn't such devices for consumer market, but for home 'engineer' it would be perhaps a tough job to make and find appropriate cpu's etc... i knew that cpu requirements aren't that big but can a simple pic processor handle it, no. and how to find an appropriate DSP?

  22. Quantum computers and privacy on Cryptogram: AES Broken? · · Score: 1

    Well, we won't be looking fondly back in golden era of privacy, privacy will still remain, although there won't be a reason to crypt your data for a while after quantum puters has been released, developers need time to create even more stronger crypting methods... although, how much sooner goverments get these quantum computers? i bet years!
    and well then goverment agencies can simply brute force your crypted document, so we will have many years without privacy, that sucks...

    heh not exactly, but they cannot limit human's every action, people will rise against them, thats provocating rebels if too stupid laws are made...

  24. Big Brother watching on Australia Taps More Phones Than Entire U.S. · · Score: 1

    Big brother watching them, lol, that sucks!
    that will lead to even higher demand of crypted communications for criminals(or just for people who want to discuss only with whom they are talking, and not also with some goverment agency) there.

    So there would probably be some market for phones crypting you'r talk so that goverment agencies cannot decrypt it, perhaps i should take out my soldering iron and a pile of electronic junk like processors, eeproms, microphone, speaker...
    i wonder how easy it would have been to make a phone like that =D perhaps at same time you could implement a button when pressed would mutate your voice also...
    That would need a lot of processing power to first translate you'r voice from analogic to digital and incoming voice from digital and analogic and also crypting & decrypting it.
    i mean a lot of processing power compared to some pic processors etc... actually it's merely nothing needed but a lot for small electronic gadgets...
    perhaps somebody should start making such a device?

    I'm glad i don't need to worry about somebody tapping my phone, if i remember right here they need atleast to inform the tapped person that they are tapping...
    also there is a market share for devices detecting phone tapping...

  25. so i can finally 'mutate' my voice when i wake up on VoIP Cell Phones Coming · · Score: 1

    So i can finally use some software to mutate my voice when i wake up my friend saying 'Hi, this is Detective X from LAPD' or something similar, and as he/she is so sleepy he/she won't check caller information but tries to recognize by voice... so that kind of phone would make it way more easier ;) i wonder how many mornings i have been waken up somebody saying something very odd on the phone and i cannot recognize the voice and just think, wtf, am i suspected about something? being so sleepy that i don't check the phone's screen for who it is... sometimes call was pretty shortly over and at somewhere middle of day i remember and check that caller information... Lol, best one to date have been someone calling me middle of night saying 'is your pillow allright?' and then giving me a long silence before i knew who it was =) Yeah, i know this is way offtopic... and yeah it's middle of night here, 5AM to be exact... perhaps time for a good 'night' sleep... Btw, to be in topic that kind of phone would give probably a lot of some nice features with it...
