Why the iPad will be awesome

March 30, 2010

What a title, that’ll suck you all in.
Seriously though, I think that it’s probably something that needs to be covered. It’s undoubtedly a huge product which will be very influential for the world of technology. There are already literally hundreds of imitators which are poised to be released to take advantage of the hype. Which [...]

Site refresh

March 27, 2010

I figured it was about time to upgrade wordpress and update the style of the site. I doubt I’ll use it any more but it is an interesting exercise nonetheless.
I used http://www.colourlovers.com/copaso to come up with the colour palette and the side scrolling theme is based on wplatformer. Of course the underlying backend is still [...]

Newsgroups for idiots

July 14, 2008

I know there a lot of people who don’t know about newsgroups or have become completely frustrated in using them. The thing is… they’re great and probably provided by your ISP for free. Finally something that uses all the potential of ADSL2+.
If you are still confused with what im talking about, its like torrents but [...]

Arduino preface

May 27, 2008

When I was in year 10 (or 11, I can’t remember), the school ran an after school exracurricular class for electronics. On the whole it was pretty boring but I did learn some pretty cool things. I learned how to solder, got my TAFE certificate 2 for double sided and surface mount components. We did [...]

December 19, 2006

Yes you may have all noticed the lack of posts despite being on holidays. I have been waiting for the long process of changing hosts and nameservers to sort itself out. You would not believe how much of a better deal my new host is compared to the old one so I will demonstrate.

S2-2006 Exam Procrastination 1

October 31, 2006

My sister’s iPod mini wasn’t working and its out of warranty so I decided to take it apart.

Generally you can replace the batteries in these things to revive them so I think Ill give that a shot. However, a bonus that I knew about but had forgotten about is the goldmine of a CF Microdrive [...]

Scary Layout

October 29, 2006

Sorry to all of you IE users, I didn’t realize that the page layout had boned up with the use of my huge but wonderful images. It should be fine now.

The menus were slow, the features were few, the processor was slow, the bluetooth was intermittent, the reception was poor, it frequently dropped calls and on top of all that it made me look like a [...]

7,800Mhz Triple Core

August 27, 2006

If you read my last post you would know some stuff at least about my current rendering obsession:

Unfortunately this stuff takes FOREVER to process on my lazy 3.2Ghz A64 so what I got instead was a 7.8Ghz supercomputer.
