Histories from the basements #3

Who doesn't have a fridge with a (dead) pig in, close to you computer?

You are unfashionable.



So?



and if she sees a dead pig inside a fridge?

Or a LEGO build like this?

U.S.S. Virginity (I like it!)

Histories from the basements #2

A vintage battlestation:


Yep, it's not in a basement, but who cares...

Do you wanna basements?... ok:


Boiler battlestation! With speakers made ​​of cardboard! DIY is his motto!

This is not in a basement, but who cares^2? It's made of wood, it's dirty and old (from 2005 maybe?)


Look at the wood impregnated with dirt and sweat!
A fitting conclusion to this "episode" of "basements".

Histories from the basements #1

Today I begin a new series of posts tagged "basements" where I gather the best of the best of basements, basement inhabitants, habits and quirks.

This post is about basement/battlestations... do you like them?

These remind me of


Da fuck

Minimal, beautiful:

Troubles with G+ & Chrome, photos and sorting / upload and multitasking


I can't deal with the incompetency of Google programmers... yeah, they have their beautiful offices with toys and relax area like children and so on... but they really haven't the mind ready for the user experience.

Now I'm uploading on G+ some pictures, obviously the upload order doesn't matter at all and they are uploaded in a messed up order.
G+ can't into selection files order (if I upload fileC, fileD, fileB, fileA I expected that the files will be sorted with my order)

So, how can I obtain the right pictures order?
Renaming (with Powershell) all photos in file_00001, file_00002?
Nope, because G+ can't into natural sorting too. (http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/12/sorting-for-humans-natural-sort-order.html)

Date sorting in the album settings doesn't work (don't know why).
Manually sorting 300+ pictures? I don't think so Jim.


Chrome... I said I'm uploading pics in G+, so I have 1 tab with G+ website and other tabs.
When the G+ tab is visible the upload process uses the max upload bandwidth, when I'm in another tab (doing nothing, the webpage is loaded, nothing nothing nothing) or the browser is reduced to the taskbar there's no upload or minimum usage of upload bandwidth.
Is this multitasking? I should look the progress bar in the G+ tab for all the time to speed up things?
How can this feature be useful to the user?

Proof:
Red = upload
red peaks = upload, when G+ tab is visible
red -flat- line = upload, when G+ is not visible, another tab selected


Apparently the productivity of multitasking is no longer fashionable (Windows 8 modern UI docet)

Viral, joke or genuine madness?

I found it on Reddit or similar a few days ago.
The story is: it was delivered to a company in the mail.

This reminds me of:

CAD with LEGO: MLcad + LDraw

I'm building a Lego pc case and I need some help with the parts/building project and I found this:



MLCad only and Website:
http://mlcad.lm-software.com/

MLCad + LDraw libraries (if you don't have LD... use this):
http://media.peeron.com/ldraw/LDraw_AIOI_2012-01_setup_32bit_v2.zip

Doubts:
- The melting point of Lego bricks (I read 100°C somewhere)
- The hot plastic will make the air healthier?

- Where to order kilos and kilos of bricks?
- Grounding? (Pc cases are metal)
- Electric/magnetic radiations?
I'm crazy?

Virtual Reality

What happened to the Virtual Reality so often dreamed in the 80's and 90's?


virtual reality now?

What do we have today? Especially in the homes of consumers?

Sony Move: ok, but it seems very primitive
Nintendo Wiimote: Like Move, more or less
MS Kinect: Good, detects motion, objects (with nothing in your hands) and "textures" (pictures).

But none of these immerses the player / user in a virtual world as we thought then.



romantic virtual reality vision


What is missing? The classic goggles to wear, maybe with orientation sensors to direct the viewport (the view of the game, the camera in the 3D environment) and then show to the player what he should see.



IllumiRoom
MS IllumiRoom for the Kinect 2 and XBOX720
The next Xbox will have, as an accessory, a projector to project the game on the walls of your room (maybe using the Kinect to see where you're looking at?). Is it considered AR (augmented reality) or VR?
We'll see ...

Nope, Google Glass is not VR imho, but AR like Google Googles in your ... googles.


What do you think? What's the next step? What's the true VR?

Gnome founder: bye bye Linux, I'm on Mac now


http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2013/Mar-05.html

What?

And now we know why Gnome is a little too much inspired to OSX interface...
We are always inspired by things we like.
Just kidding, just kidding...
And nope, I don't like the Gnome default/OSX style.

No, I can't properly use medical instruments.
