For all those lazy bastards who won’t get their hands dirty into busting up a good looking dual boot computer, here’s your answer: Duality Costumes Q8. Aight, Duality Costumes Q8 is a home-based business by a guy named Yousef. He builds up computers with decent-to-great specs with either dual boot with the mixture of choice [...]

No Steam on Linux!?

Posted: 25th August 2010 by Loolykinns Teh P1r473 in Exploring Computerism, FUN!, Linux, Mac, Microsoft, OS, Video games, Windows

Valve ported Steam on OSX and that brought so much hopes and rumors regarding porting it to Linux… But unfortunately, they won’t… According to VR-ZONE, Valve won’t be porting Steam to Linux for two reasons: DRM issues which won’t be really accepted by Linux freebies and massive flavors that they can’t to decide on which [...]

I can see it coming in the air tonight… Oh lord!! I can see Rihab, filled with pirated copies of PS3 games… Oh lord!! Iunno, I find it useless to jailbreak the PS3… But then again, can be so much fun for homebrew stuff xD Source

Yes, iPhone can suck and all… But not when it gets jailbroken (Minus the call drops when being held wrong xD) Nicholas Petty made this awesome guide to turn your iPhone into a penetration testing tool to poke around with WiFi networks (Which involves having to jailbreak it). Yes, probably not the best hardware to [...]

Well, I’ve seen how my friend unlocks his HTC Hero phone and all… And it is an interesting way to lock\unlock a phone. So basically, if your finger is greasy, you can easily give out your passcode without knowing. Like, handing over your phone to a friend to hold it while you go answer the [...]

Ola! It’s been a while since I last time touched my Xubuntu!! Anyway, I stumbled upon this tutorial from Lifehacker and thought it’d be interesting (I might wanna do that soon after I update my kernel and all). So yea, if you don’t feel like formatting your partition and rearranging your files, check out Ghacks’ [...]

I hope someone brings it to WinPho7 to make it awesomer… Yes, the picture explains it all. Swype on Windows 7 using 3M’s M2256PW ten-finger multitouch display (OK it is getting frustrating when we mention screens that can handle more than 5 fingers xD). Haven’t confirmed yet, but this could be really interesting. Source

Because any system larger than 1.44MB is just bloat

Come on people let’s face it, software is getting more and more obese. Older software that works fine used to take up one thousandth of what their counterparts eat up today. I blame lazy corporate programmers and fancy frameworks. Anyways, a couple of months back I stumbled on a group of Russians that -apparently- haven’t [...]

It happened to me once that I bought a software and didn’t meet my expectations. So trailware should be good. Microsoft will offer a trial option of whatever app you’re going to buy. Which means, rather than buying the app and being disappointed due to lack of satisfaction, you can poke around with it before [...]

I’m sure everyone remembers the “Live Strong” silicon band trend that hit Kuwait few years ago and you wouldn’t be considered a cool kid unless you own one (And some of them even cost ALOT just because they are different by color… Racists ). I’m glad that this trend is dead. And I hope no [...]
