Why Linux?

— Posted inSoftware, Technology — 1 min read

Linux is great, just get proper hardware, not just installing on any today’s hyper machines, it’s not very economical to do that. Well the point is, you don’t need any special high performance system to run Linux, just enough of RAM and SSD would not hurt. Smaller operating system is always faster so that’s that. This days dual boot may not work on UEFI, but no worries you can try Ubuntu on Virtual Box or boot from USB thumb drive or just DVD and test system there. So why Linux, well it saved me about 500€ with not buying a new laptop. If you like games, than get a PlayStation or Xbox, you don’t need gaming PC for that, TV is always bigger than any PC monitor.

Helmet for everything

Still no brain implant for controlling microwave or whatever? Well, this will collect thoughts and converting them to commands over helmet with Bluetooth signals. This will allow to control all range of devices like TV and stupid computers to garage doors and door locks, last two are a maybe not sure how will this work in public or outside. Brain implant will be wireless and charged over helmet so that’s something.

We need self-learning routers that will much better protect home users, but i guess you get what you paid for. Internet provider don’t do much for user, it’s not resetting router if something stops working or refresh public IP address, so that’s that. EU needs it’s own Internet shield using open standards, who knows how much holes are in devices already. Remembering and saving passwords in Word type document on external storage like USB thumb drive is recommended, we already sold our souls online to social media. I guess we need Unicode passwords, maybe that will somehow help. Web emails should also log any login, how hard is that?

The Alien Planet
They found a new planet not far away from earth and when they landed on it, they found alien beings with large head, big eyes and small body.

New World After Old World
Large and deep sinkhole appears out of nowhere in Antarctica. When they dig up some more they found mysterious object from previous civilization that someday lived on earth before us.

The Poles Shift
Sometime in 22nd century poles shift occurs and half of earth is flooded. Then come carnivore aliens to eat us but soon some other race contact us to help us.

Jack on the Jack
A comedy that makes fun from the same words but with different meaning.

USB virus

— Posted inSoftware, Technology — 1 min read

It’s not an .exe infection but more like hardware on USB devices. How do i know if i have it, well it’s making mouse pointer sluggish and ports are warm or hot to the touch and sometimes Linux reports USB descriptor error. The main problem is that is spreading over USB ports no mater where you put, like TV, set-op boxes and so on. To bypass the problem, you could use an PS/2 optical mouse, if your system has support for that or maybe a wireless but it’s still USB. Waiting for USB 4.0 is a solution, but who knows how long it will take to get devices on that standard and only on that standard. Where this comes from i don’t know, but it can only be fixed by changing all USB devices with that port to a new one and that’s not a cheap solution. Side effects are, mouse button my stop holding click, try doing circles with brush in any graphics app to see if there are any gaps. Accuracy and speed or movement is affected. LINK

NFS stands for network file system, some day we will have this with zero fragmentation and IP file access system. The Web is faster with opening complex site than a large Word document from local storage. New OS will be unified something similar like gaming consoles use, you just log-in everything is provided for use. Not sure why would we need 128 core CPU and 1TB of RAM for home use but i guess servers already use that for Web services and other more specialised use. Why a faster computer, is software any faster, well it’s not, just some output is. So what’s next, Android tablet is good at one thing and not bad at 10 things so that’s that. Games sells new hardware, but do we really need it, that’s the question?
