  1. I absolutely LOVE python, it is probably the most rapid dev language I've used. But I'd also recommend learning C/C++, you can do a lot more with C than you can do with pretty much any other language.

    but as dr0p said, perl is a big language out there right now. And a lot of the exploit scripts you'll find will be written in it, so a basic understanding is probably a plus (doesn't take much)

  2. Oooh, I never thought of doing something like that. You won't be able to get very good high def through the eeePC, 720p max if that. I'd recommend getting something like the AspireRevo. It uses the Nvidia ION platform which uses the GPU for bluray decoding, allowing for full 1080p playback. It only costs $260, so it's pretty affordable for what you get.

    As far as the dolphin emulator part goes, I'm sorry but that's not going to happen. With dolphin being just last gen it'll take a powerful computer for it to play anywhere near full speed. But you could always throw an NES emulator on there =D

    Edit: I should add, the AspireRevo is looking at a mid may release date. So it'll be after your CS exams =)

  3. Hey, loved the episode, partially cuz I was mentioned. But also, the sheeva looked pretty interesting. I'm sure there'll be PLENTY of haks for it in the forums in a few weeks. Might have to buy one for myself just to toy around with it.

    Also, with the Wii emulation. I have played with it a bit. And although I just realized you probably already finished filming the next episode (I was lame and forgot to watch wednesday =\) you will need a pretty heft computer to play it well. I've tried playing a few GameCube games at standard Res and have ran into troubles with framerates, you need just about the fastest dual core(quad doesn't help yet) you can get to be able to play at full speed.

    One last thing to anyone checking here, http://jqueryui.com is just shows the ui portion of jquery, I'd recommend going to http://jquery.com (the link is on top of the other site) where you'll find documentation, tutorials, as well as loads of plugins to do just about anything you want.

    @Pheagy Could you possibly pm me a list of the Frameworks you've used? I've used quite a few, but I'd like to see what others use as well.

  4. @cyoung_mi I haven't tested this, but you may be able to run the linux version on OS X? Depending on what the dependencies are like you might be able to install them from Fink

  5. It is amazing, I am in love with anything that allows massive chaining. It makes any code so much more readable and a lot easier to fix/update later on.

  6. Great episode! The Wii applications were... interesting. But one thing I have to say... JQuery is by far the best JavaScript Library. Super lightweight and has plugins and a great community for everything you need done.

    Also, spark with openfire... amazing. I know of a couple companies that have started using it and they're extremely happy with it.

  7. Awesome guide! I've been working on a python script to do stuff like this. Shutdown computer, put to sleep, download torrents to my uTorrent autodownload directory. I'll have to post it on here when it's done. Thanks for the guide though! =D
