  1. im starting a long project in which i will be working with code for hours at a time. but ive lost all my old music files that i would play while working and while i've started building a playlist it will get old FAST as its only 7 songs long right now. basically i need music. trance, house, techno, D&B. preferably free since im kinda broke right now and dont want to pirate a dozen single files. im going through acid planet and newgrounds as it is combing for good stuff but im wanting a playlist of at least 50 songs. so i dont get the loop over and over(even with shuffle it gets too predictable) i work a lot better when i have some good electronica to drown it out. so far ive got a couple of songs by dragor(Acid planet), some daft punk, and a couple of newgrounds songs. can anyone suggest a place i could download some good electronica to work to?
  2. i see your point :) thanks for the response
  3. yeah.... im running a gateway tseries laptop witn integrated graphics and 4gb RAM. it can barely handle WoW >_>
  4. i like it but im curious why you cant post to community images. never had a problem with it lol
  5. yeah but you could also listen to pandora and give the songs the ratings you like (up or down) and once your station is set just mark songs as they come up. but im an audiophile. flac or 320kbs is all i can stand. i take less for necessity but it bugs me
  6. first i gotta say the comic was perfect. next in my experience the iphone is designed as a general smart phone for people from all walks of life. the positive effect is that its easy to use and good at what it does. the bad side is that it is limited compared to say a computer. where droid is but 1 phone in a family running on the same operating system. the best and most up to date of which so far is the google nexus one. next would be the droid (based on the order of updating). and then it continues out into the other models. android is based on linux and as such is very very powerful. you can write apps easily with the SDK and a little java knowledge. or you can download the ASE(android scripting environment) and write in python or perl (more than those as well). android has its quirks. im sure the iphone does as well. but for the most part i see the same battle between the 2 that i see between gamers. one side is casual(iphone). the other is hardcore(droid). and for the most part if your not really tech savvy then iphone may be the phone since it has far more commercial apps from larger companies. but chances are if you come to this forum and watch the show that youll want the droid. its more open ended and powerful and the app store adds apps constantly (i check the "latest additions" every day and it takes about 45 minutes just scrolling a list). not to mention it will probably be covered in the show more often as it seems to be more hack friendly. i chose the droid for myself. and im damn glad i did.
  7. i remember when this show was shot with standard def camera and it was big news they figured out how to balance it while carrying it around XD and now show notes that never made it to the air are going for over 100$.
  8. ive been wondering for a while but never bothered to ask. while pandora is an amazing service and i use it daily ,both on my computer and with my droid, but if your going to download music illegally aren't there more efficient ways? and whats the general quality of the resulting files anyway? lol. just out of curiosity
  9. just seems like a massive waste of time to me edit: then again i dont have a lot of knowledge on the pros and cons of using tape other than not having seen the media in years
  10. tape deteriorates does it not? If im correct then i would go with the drives
  11. nice work. have you considered taking a look at the ASE(android scripting environment)? assuming you have an android based phone you can use the ASE app( http://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/ ) to run python code. might be an easy way to get your code mobile.
  12. nice way to organize a bunch of things you can already do into 1 folder instead of half a dozen lol. and an interesting feature
  13. ive noticed a running thing with people from that particular age group that dont seem to understand. they wouldnt have any problem understanding if they would try. they look at whats in front of them and give up before they start. rather than read everthing, break it down, and try to understand or research (by research i meant google) what they dont know. this drives me crazy! but at the same time cements my position as the IT guy. in all honesty technology is very simple (as long as you have the internet) becasue you can read and understand it logically. thanks to the internet you can research anything you dont know in a very short time. in essence all it takes to UNDERSTAND technology is to research and try. however do not confuse my meaning. understanding technology and being a hacker is 2 different things. the former requires you to simply read the research of others. while the latter requires you to adapt, learn, push forward without knowing for sure whats going to happen. understanding technology allows you to use it being a hacker allows you to create and advance it
  14. i dont wardrive often lol. but i got estrongs file exlorer and i love it XD even extracts zip files. XD im gonna wait till theres an office program that is free and another program to get is pdanet. i havent rooted my droid because i dont wanna risk bricking it so im waiting for a more effective way of getting access. BUT i found pdanet which is a free prog that is effective in tethering my droid to my laptop via usb. obviously it works because thats how im posting this XD it was free and works fine. on irc as well
  15. Thanks everyone. Ill use filezilla on my main laptop and turn the old one into a free bsd server.

    ftp server

    I've got an old outdated laptop and I believe there's a use for any old computer. In this case I wanna use it as a file server for my Droid. I have an FTP client app so all I need to do is setup the server. What I want is a windows FTP server setup on the old laptop. Its just a remote fileserver for my Droid so the simpler the better. Preferably a command line based program so I can automate it easily with batch
  17. it would help to add some form of question to your post lol. i dont now much about circuitry so i cant help but i can say if you put ina question your more likely to get help lol
  18. http://see.stanford.edu/see/courseinfo.asp...aa-866adcae1111 thats how i learned. what better way than to "sit in" on an entire stanford java programming class stanford engineering everywhere is stanford's way of spreading knowledge. they chose a few select classes and recorded every lecture(on video) and published all the assignments. one of which is that link. CS106A programming methodology. the class teaches good programming techniques and the java language. easy to understand. check it out
  19. keep track of hak 5 with ipod, pick up java again to code apps for droid, increase my workout intensity to tone. get my hair dyed with dark and bright blue highlights
  20. have you ever heard of hackits.de? it was a hacking game site that went down. you registered an account and it had tasks for you to do which you gained ranks for completing. everything from writing code to decyphering a string of ROT13 text. if you can find a more detailed description and get a project like that going again it would be a great place for kids and adults alike to pick up better security practices. but theres always the darkside that it will teach people how to do the black hat stuff as well. so its a fine line between preparing people and arming them. you might wanna aim your age group to around 17+. not saying someone younger couldnt handle it without going blackhat. i know a lot of 12 year olds that can do a lot of shit. its just that in general most dont see the difference and its the majority that needs to be watched lol

    droid apps

    i finally got my moto droid and im in love. its so rare that i actually get new technology when its still new that im shaking. this is the first piece of hardware ive gotten within 3 years of its release since i got my gamecube. anyway ive been browsing the market for about 2 days now. ive looked through about 1/9 of their apps from what i can tell but its not always reliable. i just want to know some app suggestsions i currently use "Hi MSN" for my msn client but it has big issues with no real error report. large chunks of convo get lost to both sides and its a complete mess. i need a new msn chat client i also use skype and google talk. so apps that include them would be nice but i have well function apps for both already so i really just need to replace himsn with something... more functional. and i need a good terminal app. free on both of course since im broke. took all i had plus some help to get the phone lol. and any other apps you find useful or nice to have lemme know. edit: and if theres a good app for downloading podcasts (particularly ha5) i could use that as well lol
  22. i looked into hackerhighschool years ago. it was pretty outdated even when it started. even back then it only told me what i already knew. dont get me wrong its a great way for people who havent got any knowledge in security to get a start but theres so much that needs more detail that i cant even begin to list it
  23. OH! thats right. i remember now. at the time i wasnt doing any type of torrenting. i wasnt aware of its awesomeness >_> so all i have are the downloadable eps in avi
  24. in the image she spelled it "Hackers" using the capital H and the s leads me to believe she is saying she is a fan of the "Hackers" movie. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113243/ its a true classic and a very comedic look at how Hollywood used to portrait hackers
  25. my personal choice would be the ps3. ive had experience with both systems and given the games, hardware, and quality i would definately go with ps3 PS3:----- pros: the highest quality graphics of the 3 platforms. the controls are basically identical to the ps2 duel shock so you can still pick up games just as easily as before. playstation network is a wonderful service offering everything from old time playstation favorites (final fantasy 8 just came out for download XD) to playstation network only titles no fee for online access or play. blu ray quality (ive seen it myself many times) downloadable movies for both rent or own. games such as little big planet. best graphics and performance of all 3 so cross platform games tend to be the best looking and smoothest running on the ps3. built in blu ray player. support for multiple users. the ability to download psn games to multiple systems free of charge (example: bought a few games on my account on my girlfriends ps3. went to visit my military parents and redownloaded those games to their ps3 for free) and the ability to download and redownload your psn games over and over again. bluetooth and wireless network adapter built in cons: expensive, game selection (no halo, no left for dead, etc, etc, ect). ALMOST NO LOCAL MULTIPLAYER SUPPORT. meaning if your a family man or you have friends that visit you physically there are very very very few split screen multiplayer games. 90% of the multiplayer on the system is reserved for online only. xbox is nice. good party system. nice game franchises. great network play. no built in wireless built in sadly. edit: and for future reference E3 stands for electronic entertainment expo. its a convention for... well electronic entertainment. e3 is where most game companies reveal their latest technology and their big name titles
