endlessmasquerade — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 11:22:31 +0000

Windows 7 the next-gen operating system is finally getting ready and it should hit the markets in mid 2009, many of you may wonder what the new operating system looks like, well most of the looks are borrowed from Windows Vista itself, but there are several new things people would definitely like.

Hopefully Microsoft should be able to deliver on time, the Vista debacle is still strongly talked about as a failure point for the lack of popularity the latest OS got.

Share One Keyboard and Mouse Between Multiple Computers

endlessmasquerade — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 15:27:49 +0000

Via Tombuntu

Have multiple keyboards and mice on your desk? With Synergy, you can seamlessly share one keyboard, mouse, and clipboard between multiple systems. Have a laptop to the right of your main display? Just move the cursor off the right edge of the screen and it will appear on the laptop.

QuickSynergy is a graphical application for setting up Synergy servers and clients. I used it to to share my mouse and keyboard between my desktop and Eee PC laptop. Synergy works flawlessly, even when the laptop is on wifi I can’t tell that I’m using a remote mouse and keyboard.

Install QuickSynergy from the package quicksynergy (click the link to install), or by running the command below in your terminal:

sudo apt-get install quicksynergy

Open QuickSynergy from Applications->Accessories->QuickSynergy.

On the Synergy server:

In the Share tab, type the hostnames of the clients (you must specify a hostname and not a IP address) into the appropriate boxes to position them around your main display. Click Start and the server will start (QuickSynergy will close). Open QuickSynergy again if you want to stop the server.

On the clients:

In the Use tab, type the IP address of the server. Select the Settings tab and select the Keep synergy running option so you can close the QuickSynergy window without disconnecting. Click Start to connect.

Tips:

Find your IP address in System->Administration->Network Tools in the Device tab. (You’ll need to select your network device from the drop down.)
Find your hostname in System->Administration->Network in the General tab.

Where would science be without the paranoid fears of conspiracy theorists? Probably the same place the internet would be without joke websites.

The $300 Million Sienfield and Bill Gates Ad for Microsoft

endlessmasquerade — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 18:00:53 +0000

Wow I could not imagine $300 million going to waste in such a way, this is the first Ad featuring Seinfield and Bill Gates. Seinfield has been paid a fee of $10 million to promote Microsoft and this ad was really over the top, over the top of the head I would say.

How free software makes money!

endlessmasquerade — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 17:59:19 +0000

“

Free software promotes sharing, kindness and humanity towards others, which is what Ubuntu the operating system represents. Instead of illegally sharing software you know nothing about and barely trust, running into the risk of being thrown in prison, why not simply use free software? People say it’s impractical. How will a company that makes free sofware earn money and sustain? Who will work for free?To understand how to, lets consider the two simple alternatives when I write a software;

1. I’m evil. I close up the software, don’t release the source code, don’t tell anyone how it works and sell it at a high price. People will find ways around paying for my software and piracy will prevail. But I’ll earn anyway and people will abuse me if the software doesn’t work. I become greedy for more money, write some malicious code into the software to steal people’s credit card numbers and distribute it again. Since nobody has access to the source code, nobody can actually prove that their credit card numbers are being stolen. They just have a gut feeling. People start hating me and each other for sharing the software in the first place.

2. I’m not evil. I release the source code along with the software and license it using a free software license like the GNU General Public License, BSD license or MIT license.
