Light Peak

Well, USB 3.0 is around the corner and… Hold on one minute please…

“HEY USB!! I TOLD YOU TO KEEP LOOKING AT THE WALL IN THAT CORNER!! I WON’T LET GO OF YOU UNTIL YOU APOLOGIZE!!”

Anyway, as I was saying… USB 3.0 is around the corner and so is SATA/600. And now, INTEL is working on their new “Light Peak” concept that is literally some infrared lights pew-pewing through a long fibre-optic cable (Probably as long as longcat) with crap load of stuff you can attach from keyboards and mice to storage network devices.

This baby can do 10Gbps data transfer both ways at the same time (Just like a doggy-door) and can go up to 100Gbps with some controller upgrades.

According to INTEL, “Light Peak” would be ready to ship sometime during 2010.

LALALALA!!!!

I was linked to this video from a friend and I have a feeling that this video is going to be the next “Rick Roll” mem on the net. He’s a famous Russian singer from the 60’s. Don’t know his name. But if you were to see the video and listen to the song you’d probably understand how I feel. I’m practically cracking up especially from 1:47 and onwards of the video. I had to stop it otherwise I’d faint. This would probably make a bloody LOL e-mail to send your colleagues at work. Speaking of LOL. I think that’s what he is saying throughout the whole song!!! Oh and for some reason the look on his face creeps me out. Looks like PEdo bear.

iPhone users can now Photoshop on the go

Russel brown (Photoshop co-creator ) recently asked Ansca mobile to recreate the original photoshop 1.0 from 1990 (wow Photoshop is older than me)

It took only three days to do so using the corona SDK.

From Xbox360 to Military? Microsoft wouldn’t think so..

I just imagined some kid yelling “OMG!! SOMEONE JUST SHOT MY DAD!!” playing MW2 and then respawn somewhere…

You probably know that USA’s military are training their troops using PC games (So you don’t have to wonder why American soldiers are bunny-hopping instead of walking\running). But they wanted to take it to another level by switching to Xbox360 when Microsoft said “NO!” for the following reasons (Not in order though):

1) Console shortage due to over demand.
2) Buying crap load of consoles with a single game per console isn’t much of a profit.
3) Bad reputation. You don’t want your kid to spend his time with a device that trains military… Really, they’d shoot you one day with a marshmallow gun if you don’t hand them candy somewhere in near future!

I wonder if this actually happened in Kuwait. I’m quite sure Kuwait Police will buy Xbox360 and kick in GTA, Forza for our driving schools, MW2 and Ace Combat 6 for military, Rababa Hero (FUCK! Now I wish this game exists!) for music institutes and FIFA\Winning Eleven for our football sport clubs (Yet they’ll still suck) =P
