Site Upgrades!

So I finally got around to upgrading my site. New features include:

  1. Upgraded to Search Unleashed - now comments are automatically searched and search terms are highlighted on clickthrough
  2. Upgraded to a theme (LightWord by Andrei Luca) which splits trackbacks and comments!
  3. Wide-width theme, better for widescreen displays and photo posts
  4. Recent posts/comments widgests, view recent activity at a glance
  5. Dropped to a 2-column layout, and removed adsense from front page bar

About time right?

Leapfrog Crammer – 10$ ogg vorbis/mp3 etc with disassembly

Reccomended to me on the comments of a previous thread, I picked up the leapfrog crammer for 10$ at big lots. I've seen these all over the discount stores (along with didj's, which I have one of Claude's cartridges for and will be porting software sometime soon). For 10$ ogg vorbis support and a touch screen (kind of ..) is a heck of a deal. More info after the jump.

75$, 20 watt blue ray player (with video and kill-a-watt goodness)

Yeah, more technically it's a 20-watt x264 player. But it's an 800mhz CELERON (all caps!) pumping 1080p into a broadcom decoder. More info after the jump

IM-ME Linux Drivers Beta Release and Sourceforge Page

To follow up on my earlier articles, the IM-ME has been gaining some traction in the hacking community. There's been a couple of driver releases in various forms, as well as a lot of information and protocol specs. Scott Albertine sent me a great gpl implementation in C, so we've made a sourceforge page for everyone to download the driver.

The SF page is at http://im-megpldrivers.sourceforge.net . There's the initial C driver, some protocol information from Scott, as well as a SVN repository to push any code changes to. If any of the other IM-ME driver implementations also want to host their drivers/source code there, it would make for a good launch pad for IM-ME hackers. Let me know if you need file or SVN access and I can help set it up. Hope to see you there, happy hacking! IM-ME console
