  1. Python is a useful language it is easy and fast and I believe that it is embedded in a variety of languages. Another great aspect of the language (as mentioned by newbi3) is the fact that it's multi platform.

  2. OK guys i'v been wondering for a long time. How can i make a USB 2.0 flash drive faster? I tried many things but my maximum write speed is around 10 Mbps and my maximum read speed of 8 Mbps. I use a tool called BootIce it allows you change many settings about a flash drive. Like Changing the MBR, PBR Install A boot manager. <--- Get it here: http://www.pendriveapps.com/bootice-partition-flash-drive-edit-boot-sector. Well I've configured my old 123 MB flash drive to a FDD (No partition table) and i formatted it to be NTFS. Are there the optimal settings or is there anything better so i can speed it up?

    P.S the link goes to pauly's site which is in Chinese. So unless you are Chinese use Google translate...

    Thanks,

  4. ~This if f.y.i I am not responsible for what you do or if you damage your device~

    Hey guys. i found out this trick to fake your ios version!!! OK lets say your like me and you have a older model of the iPhone (i have a 2g). But you want to get apps (ipas or from the appstore) that aren't for your ios version. Well here is how you can fake your ios version!!

    1. Get ifile on your ipod or ssh into your iphone. **

    2. Go to the root of your iphone...

    3. Go to system...

    4. Go to Library (in the system folder)

    5. Go to CoreServices (in the Library folder)

    6. Open SystemVersion.plist

    7. Edit the product version key. (i set mine to 6.0.1).

    8. Read the **...

    9. Enjoy....

    ** I recommend using ifile it is easier... Plus just know this wont work for all apps but it will work for some if your lucky.....

    Good luck!!! :)

  5. Only problem is, he could end up mail bombing a forged sender, or in effect, his ISP might just shut him down if they see the peak traffic increase of emails. They'll assume hes part of a bot net and drop his connection.

    Considering that i reccomend you dont try this....

  6. if you had asked me two months ago i would have said iPhone, but my brother got a droid and i'm sooooo jealous! It just seams like you can breathe a lot more with a droid. Not to mention the iPhone currently only supports 3G, while the droid supports 4G. which with Verizon gets you 4GBs of data instead of 2. My brother has a droid razor max, which allows him to do things like USB tethering for free. Any droid should be able to do this but don't quote me on that. I tried with an iPhone and you have to pay for an extra data plan regardless if you want to tether.

    Other then that it just seams like the droid is a lot less legalistic then the iPhone, you don't have to crack it because it already allows you to do pretty much whatever you want. Plus you can try your hand at making Android apps for free! while for apple you have to pay $99 bucks just to start.

    So my conclusion, get a droid! lol :)

    Well if your iphone is jailbroken you can get alot of tweaks to teather:

    1. MyWi

    2. TeatherME

    3. PDANet

  7. Im a n00b when it comes to linux except for the fact i used ubuntu for 2 weeks and i made a few bootable fedora flash drives. So i wanted to learn more about it so i was wondering which distro is easy to use but at the same time gets you used to the terminal, ect.. I was thinking of using a Vm. Thanks guys. :D

  8. Hey guys i have a slight problem. I am going to get either a iphone 4 16 gb and a htc nexus 1, and i was wondering which is better Android (YEAH!!!) or iOS (hissssssssssssss)? On a side note is there any way i could unlock a iphone with the fallowing specs?

    Iphone 4

    5.0.1

    04.11.08 Modem Firmware

    I already tried sam and ultra snow?

    Thanks guys! :D

  9. I got this from: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Are_emulators_illegal

    An emulator is a program like any other, and falls under the same rules and guidelines that affect all software. The intended usage of an emulator does not affect its legality in anyway.

    The usage of an emulator is also completely legal, and any reverse engineering of a system's BIOS to make emulation possible is also legal. The case of Sony vs. Connectix concluded the following:

    "Connectix's reverse engineering of the Sony BIOS extracted from a Sony PlayStation console purchased by Connectix engineers is protected as a fair use."

    There are some gray areas regarding this however. Some emulators require a copy of the system's BIOS to operate, and distributing a BIOS file is in fact illegal unless the copyright holder authorizes the distribution, or if the copyright becomes nullified.(Which can happen because of other events not discussed here.)

    ROMs unto themselves are also perfectly legal to own, copy, and distribute. These rules do NOT apply to copyrighted material however, and it just so happens that most ROMs are made from data that is still under copyright.

    The idea that it is legal to download a ROM if you own an authorized copy of the software(or that you must delete within 24 hours of downloading if you do NOT own it), is false and is more or less a courtesy to video game manufacturers. It is illegal to perform an unauthorized download of copyrighted material in any form whether or not you own a legally distributed copy.

    However, it IS legal to copy an officially distributed piece of copyrighted software as a personal backup, as also concluded in the Sony vs. Conexant case that stated:

    "Any purchaser of a copyrighted software program must copy the program into the memory of a computer in order to make any use at all of the program. For that reason, 17 U.S.C. Section 117(a)(1) provides that it shall not be an infringement for one who owns a software copy to make another copy"

    Though whether or not creating a ROM image specifically is legal has been openly debated. Primarily because of the ruling in Amiga Vs. JS&A Where the use of the PROM Blaster to copy the magnetic catridges was NOT protected by a user's right to copy software.

    Whatever the case, it remains illegal, to distribute legally made backups without authorization from the copyright holder.

    The rules above apply regardless of any ROM copyright holder's rules and policies. Though no court ruling has tested the concept that purchasing a game might bind the consumer into a legal contract giving the manufacturer the power to apply additional restrictions regarding the game's usage.

    Copyright infringement is a criminal offense, but it is typically the responsibility of the copyright holder to initiate any sort of prosecution. However, It is often too difficult or impossible for copyright holders to obtain sufficient information to prosecute individuals who copy and distribute ROM files. Because of this, ROM distribution between individuals is generally considered a safe practice. However, this does not hold true for public file hosting and distribution where the copyright infringer can be identified.

    The typical response to copyright infringement is a "cease and desist" letter detailing the copyrights that have been violated, and informing the infringer that failure to remove the content will result in legal action. Extreme cases of copyright infringement may be considered a federal offense which could result in up to ten years imprisonment(see the No Electronic Theft Act, 18 U.S.C. 2319).

    Hope it helps!! :D

  10. Hey guys i was wondering is anyone could give me links to a tutorial on how to do it? I tried to use firezilla with a britech youtube vid. But i hopelessly failed and wasted a sunday. I was hoping to us open source software like fire zilla? Thanks guys! :D

  11. Did you actually read the page I linked? Nearly all the resources I link there are completely free. The only exceptions are:

    1. Some C++ books (which are more than worth the price)

    2. A couple of chapters of the TECS book are not published online, but you can still get a LOT of value from the other 12 chapters that are published.

    3. The Just Java book is not free, but you haven't expressed an interest in learning Java so far.

    4. The K&R C book isn't free, but Programming in C which is linked right beneath it is.

    The Python book that I linked is free, in numerous formats. The same is true of nearly all the other resources linked to in the guide. Not only are those resources free, but they've been vetted by several experience programmers for quality and accuracy of information.

    Oops sorry I read the post but i didn't notice the links... p.s I like the comparison to the hammer and the nail gun. :D

  12. I've always used WBFS, I thought it had an ok interface and I was able to see game covers etc.

    Also at the time the USB loader I used didn't support Fat32, so I've never used it actually don;t know about the loading times, maybe it has more difficulty reading from a Fat32 disk? Not exactly sure on that one so you should test it out if you get the chance :)

    Good luck

    Thanks for your help! I tried WBFS and Fat32 (which works in new version of USB loader GX). But i use fat 32 so i can use my drive for the wii and for file storage. :D
