World’s First ErgoSensor Monitor

April 7th, 2012 No comments

Interesting concept. Can’t wait to see if these can actually help somebody. Not sure about everybody else that sits at a desk most of the day but my back kills me just about every day and I’m ready to try something new. Maybe this monitor should be connected to your mouse and shock the crap out of you when you are sitting with bad posture!

Future Chrome version may choose your passwords

February 21st, 2012 No comments

I’ve been using LastPass for a while now and it does make it a lot easier to have different passwords everywhere and also passwords that you could never remember yourself. Would something like this replace other tools like LastPass or 1Password? Would people trust Google enough to use something like this or would it be looked at just like browsers saving passwords like they already do? Check out this article on Arstechnica for more info.

Future Chrome version may choose your passwords, and change them when youve been hacked.

Asus Prime on 4.0.3 ICS

January 12th, 2012 No comments

One thing I like so far is they updated when they said they would, actually they did it early! Got my Asus Transformer Prime yesterday, with the dock, and as soon as I got past the Welcome screens, it did a few updates and I am now on Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) 4.0.3. I can’t remember updates for my Android phones being available early with Verizon!

Asus Transformer Prime

January 10th, 2012 No comments

So, I used this year’s birthday and Christmas money to order me an Asus Transformer Prime. I should be getting it soon. I’ve been wanting an Android tablet for a while and I think this is supposed to be the most sought after Android tablet to hit the market in a while. I’ve had a couple of the original iPads for a long time but didn’t like some of the limitations. I guess I’ll get to compare soon enough! This is supposed to be the first Ice Cream Sandwich Android tablet also. I hope this ICS quad core tablet lives up to the hype!

Router Firmware Mods

January 9th, 2012 No comments

I’ve really wanted to try a non-facotry firmware on my home routers for a few years now but never found the time or always chickened out. I’ve looked into DD-Wrt, OpenWrt, and Tomato. Have you tried any of these and if so, which did you choose and why? I have a Netgear WNDR3700 and tried OpenWrt this weekend. but gave up after wireless problems and reverted back to the factory firmware.

The Matrix is one of my favorite movie series of all time and I just love it when it still gets referenced or talked about in the news. Check out this article about a Matrix style of learning. How cool would this be! Matrix Learning

Congress Authorizes Pentagon to Wage Internet War

December 16th, 2011 No comments

So does this mean we can do any more than we already do or we can just now be more open about it?! You can’t tell me that we aren’t already doing this kind of stuff. Really, what do you call most of what the CIA and NSA do now?

“Congress affirms that the Department of Defense has the capability, and upon direction by the President may conduct offensive operations in cyberspace;” and “in certain instances, the most effective way to deal with threats and protect US and coalition forces is to undertake offensive military cyber activities, including where the role of the United States Government is not apparent or to be acknowledged.”

Wondershare LiveBoot 2012

December 5th, 2011 No comments

I’ve used a few recovery boot CDs lately with some problem machines and had downloaded this one a while ago but never used it. I can’t say it fixed all my problems but I found the interface pretty slick and was even able to plug in a USB drive and notice it after my machine was booted to the CD, not all will do this. I happened to download this when they had a free download period after it first came out. It’s called Wondershare LiveBoot 2012. I so use a few other emergency boot CDs and will try to make a list here eventually but for now take a look at this one. Wondershare LiveBoot 2012
