At The Movies With The Geek : Ninja Assassin

So this Thanksgiving holiday weekend you have spent time with family, carved up the bird, and are probably in a food coma...well what better way to fight all that off then going and watching some ninjas cut off pretty much any head or limb in a 5 ft area!!

My Thoughts

So there you have it. The movie has some killing, some flying body parts, pretty bloddy, so good fight scenes but overall I have to say it is a catch on tv when it comes out.

LegoMatrix – Famous Bullet Scene From The Matrix [LEGO Style]

neododge01

Just in time for the 10 year anniversary we get an awesome remake of the famous bullet scene LEGO style from The Matrix thanks to the gang at LegoMatrix

Just in time for its 10th year anniversary, "Trinity Help" is a frame-accurate stop-frame animation of the famous bullet-dodge scene from the 1999 movie The Matrix, all done in Lego.

By "frame accurate" we mean that we took all of the video frames from that part of the movie (that's nearly 900 frames for just 44 seconds of footage) and reproduced them all in Lego.

And hey if you wanna see how accurate they were check out this split screen with the original version and the lego version.

And hey maybe you want to go scene by scene and get a break down? They got that too with scene by scene commentary!

How awesome is all this!! Thanks for creating this for us geeks! :)

Video Recording Comes To The Palm Pre With Precorder

So today I wake up and pull up my rss reader to find a post on Precentral.net about using an application called Precorder to record video right from my Palm Pre!!!!  Now all I could say to that was SWEET!!!!!

Precorder has been developed to bridge the gap between the current revision of WebOS and a future release that will enable video recording. It is capable of recording in multiple combinations of audio and video and includes support for using the built-in LED for lumination while recording in dark areas. Video recorded with Precorder is viewable through Palms built in video application.

So after loading all that I needed I recorded my first video and here it is.....


First 12second video on my palm pre (in landscape) on 12seconds.tv

Now how can you get video setup on your Pre? Well first remember this is in Alpha so it is still buggy, needs tweaks, and not fully tested so things CAN go wrong...so make sure you are aware of that.

Once you have accepted that you will need to install via WebOS quick install (not available in the app store or via something like preware (yet)).  You just have to grab the two IPK files from the apps wiki page.  Install and if all works out after that you are good to go!!!

precorder1 precorder2

As you can see above you have your card that allows you to start recording (stays that way through recording...no visual of what you are recording at this time in the alpha) and a card with your settings like selecting you audio type (mp3, aac, ect), video type (mpeg 4, h.264, ect) and if you wanna use the flash for dark shots.

Like I stated in the video this is an early alpha release so there are bugs, things can happen, and features are missing but it is working and recording video so at this point that is a huge plus.  I look forward to seeing it take shape with future releases and I will be testing and posting more video to see how I can get the best results.

I just have to say I love the homebrew community!!!

note : if you have any questions on this feel free to contact me via email or shoot me a message on twitter...would love to help you out.

What Is Google Chrome OS?

googlechrome

So Google has announced the new Google Chrome OS. Do you wanna check it out on your machine? Or are you like what the heck is Google Chrome OS?

Some feel the Chrome OS will destroy the desktop and others have thoughts on Google controlling our OS.

So what do you think?  Will you be using the new OS on your machines?

The Website That Deletes Itself

Very interesting concept.

tmp

For each unique visitor it receives, Temporary.cc deletes part of itself. These deletions change the way browsers understand the website's code and create a unique (de)generative piece after each new user. Because each unique visit produces a new composition through self-destruction, Temporary.cc can never be truly indexed, as any subsequent act of viewing could irreparably modifiy it.
