Gaming Post

I just wanted to bring 2 things to the attention of my fellow Game peeps: #1- Apparently the rumors about a new PSP are not entirely rumors, there has been talk about a UMD-less PSP device coming up towards the end of this year (2009), I must say it does look pretty cool =). Here is the article . #2- I have stumbled upon a cool show called WCG: Ultimate Gamer , 12 hard core gamers go head to head each week, not only playing the video games, but actually "living" them. Each week 1 player gets eliminated, until only 1 Ultimate Gamer reigns. The show is put together really well, and thanks to HuLu I've been catching up =) Take care peeps =) -Ash

Sonic-PI : programming music.

By
Hello World, This is super interesting. When I'm not IT-ing, I'm usually doing something music related, either practicing or performing with one of my friends. Its mostly acoustic/live instruments. Then a friend of mine (also a musical techie) sent me a link to Sonic-Pi . I wasn't sure what it was for, then I watched the video that's on the site, and I got REALLY excited, and I had to share it. Dr Sam Aaron basically developed a language, using the Raspberry Pi's Python kernel as the basis, and it actually allows you to CREATE music, via programming, its brilliant. I can see this being a hit in both the Computer Science and in the Music Class, especially for the younger generation. In a way its stimulating both sides of your brain, the Analytical side (programming), and the Creative side (music). Check it out at Sonic-Pi.net , its very cool. Keep on tech-ing everyone. -Ash

Hello World,  I hope you have been doing well. So I just came across a video from the Youtube channel DIY Tryin (I love these guys), and with in about 5 minutes, they set up a " Pirate Box ". I was blown away, because I had not heard of this before. " What is a Pirate Box?" you might ask. Its a secure way for you to share files (and even chat) with friends, who are within your proximity, without needing internet. Basically its turning a device into a wireless local LAN almost. Its pretty cool. As they mentioned this could be used for many things, from Fun to Functional. Fun: If you are throwing a party, you can have your friends connect to it, up load the pictures and videos they take, or share their favorite songs to be played. Functional: If you need to exchange files between machines securely for example. The possibilities are endless, and I personally want to do this. I would probably go with the TP- Router instead of the Raspberry PI, becaus...
