The pirate bay escape them Ship to space

2012-03-19T02:21:00.003-07:00

As we knew the pirate bay as we knew is a greatest torrents website in the world hosts in low orbit and drones

The founders of Pirate Bay have always a lot to maintain their pirate ship afloat against all odds (and attacks with rights).

As we have seen some time ago with the closure of Megaupload, have a centralized system is extremely risky, because it becomes very easy to grasp the central server to bring down an entire system of sharing.

Other solutions have been put in place for the sharing of culture on the Internet can notsimply be cut, but The Pirate Bay, who wants to continue to thrive in the Internet, iscurrently reviewing its internal architecture from top to bottom in preparation for an ambitious future ...

The goal? The space, no less!

To achieve this objective, it has already taken to ensure that the entire site The PirateBay can be stored on a low volume.

Mission accomplished for sleep and already the first step.

Next mission: leave land permanently to host servers of The Pirate Bay in low orbit.

To achieve this, using tiny computers like the Raspberry Pi, coupled with economicdrones controlled by GPS and radio transmitters liaising with the ground. Add moresolar panels to supply energy to this little world, and we will get mini flying autonomousservers, capable of flying for days.

New xbox come in 2013

2012-03-18T02:38:00.003-07:00

March 15 (Bloomberg) -- Microsoft Corp. will release the next version of its Xbox console in 2013 at the earliest, as the company squeezes at least one more year of sales out of its current model, said two people with knowledge of the matter.

The company may show the successor to its Xbox 360 in June 2013 at the E3 conference and put it on sale that same year, said the people, who declined to be named because the plans are confidential. David Dennis, a company spokesman, said earlier today that Microsoft won’t discuss new Xbox hardware at this year’s E3, quelling speculation that the device would be unveiled at the 2012 show.

Apple hit with Siri suit

2012-03-13T15:39:00.003-07:00

Ever find yourself frustrated with how smoothly Siri seems to work for the folks in Apple’s commercials but not for you?

A New York man has filed a class-action suit against Apple, saying that the company has been “misleading and deceptive” about what the iPhone 4S virtual assistant can do.

“For example,” the suit reads, “in many of Apple’s television advertisements, individuals are shown using Siri to make appointments, find restaurants and even learn the guitar chords to classic rock songs or how to tie a tie.” According to the plaintiff, Frank M. Fazio, the commercials have misled him to buy the iPhone 4S to get Siri but that he has had a lot of trouble using the software. The lawsuit claims that Apple’s advertisements are “fiction.”

Apple declined to comment on pending litigation.

The company has said — as the lawsuit notes — that Siri is a beta product and that the software is evolving. Personally, I haven’t had that much trouble getting Siri to set appointments and alarms for me, though I have trained myself to request that Siri “Search the Web for...” because that’s normally where I’m directed. Other bloggers have documented some problems I’ve had with Siri, and voice-control software in general, including that sometimes they just have no idea what you’re saying. (See: Gizmodo’s Mat Honanon Siri’s failed attempt to play “coal train.”)

Still, I had no trouble getting Siri to do some of the things the lawsuit mentions, such as in the commercial “Rock God” where Siri shows the protagonist how to play a B-minor ninth. And, unlike Fazio, I’ve had very few issues setting reminders and appointments.

The company can probably excuse a lot with the “sequences shortened” disclaimer it puts on its ads, including, perhaps, shortening to exclude repeating one’s self.

Yet while I agree that Siri lacks features I would like to have — such as the ability to launch apps — and that the ads portray a much smoother experience than the real-life product, it’s probably a stretch to call it “fiction.”

The company has also had some problems with its latest language addition, Japanese,Kotaku reported. Some complain that the program only seems to understand basic Japanese and is far behind the voice assistant designed by the major Japanese carrier DoCoMo when used by native speakers

New Lamborghini if we say Aventador

2012-03-13T10:55:00.000-07:00

On paper, Lamborghini has an output of 700 hp and a 0-100 km / h in 2.9 seconds only1.It is quite possible that the mark is well capable of reducing the kilometers in under 20seconds, performance coveted by the most expensive supercars in the world. With a starting price set at 304,980 euros ($ 420,575), the Aventador promises to be the most powerful of the Lamborghini.

Using techniques that Lamborghini has developed regarding the use of carbon (a special factory was designed, the Aventador is the first production car with a monocoquecarbon fiber. This specificity allows it to lose weight and be exceptionally rigid.

Question design, the Aventador is required by an aggressive and radical. With the Reventón and the Sesto Elemento, the Aventador expresses a turning point in the designof Lamborghini and, unlike the latter, the value for money is more than reasonable.Sant'Agata firm plans to produce 2,500 copies of this car.

Apple Tv proposal was rejected by CBS

2012-03-13T10:48:00.001-07:00

Now that the new iPad has launched, Apple fans are left to buzz about the company’s next steps in the television space. Last week, the company unveiled a new version of its Apple TV set-top box, which gave Apple TV users access to the videos they had purchased from iTunes in the Cloud.

But, that’s not all that Apple had planned for the television space.

CBS chief executive Leslie Moonves said Apple’s late co-founder Steve Jobs approached him to talk about a subscription streaming service about a year ago. Moonves told audience members at a UCLA that he said he wasn’t interested in providing CBS content to the service because it would upset CBS’s current revenue streams.

Yahoo vs Facebook , something wrong !

2012-03-12T21:14:00.002-07:00

Yahoo has reportedly filed a patent suit against Facebook, saying that the social network is infringing on technologies that are the “foundation of our business.”

It had been previously reported that Yahoo had demanded that Facebook pay licensing fees for at least 10 patents, and had threatened the IPO-bound social network with legal action if they could not come to a settlement. According to the court filing, the patents deal with technologies for advertising, privacy, social networking, messaging and allowing users to customize their Web experience.

Then if Facebook will find a solution or interaction to calm down Yahoo , it's good in my opinion but if the conflict switch to a high level then good , we will enjoy this "network user's" , we will see in next month's some new services in the both sides "Yahoo" and "Facebook".

How to synchronize you're iphone/ipad with a lot of itunes accounts

2012-03-12T20:50:00.001-07:00

One of the major flaws in my IOS is how they managed in sync with iTunes.

So if you have a PC + a work computer from which you'd like to add some music, it is not intended by Apple to let you synchronize your phone with both computers. Or every time you delete the contents of your phone to synchronize with a new iTunes account.

Worse, if you format the computer with your iTunes account principal, it will resynceverything again with a new account or risk losing many personal ... Really not practiceall that!

But fortunately the hackers who had a little tired of this limitation have created an application that will allow your iPhone to sync with multiple iTunes accounts withoutproblem.

MultiTunes lets you add the number of accounts you want iTunes to your phone, makingthe hassle

ple synchronizations far less painful.

of multi

Of course with this kind of hack, you will have a jailbroken device.

Once Cydia is installed on your phone, you simply look MultiTunes in the search bar, this application is available for free download.

Kara , when a robot have fellings !

2012-03-12T13:16:00.000-07:00

Quantic Dream Kara may not represent a real development project, but it speaks volumes about Sony’s current position in the video game industry: few other manufacturers are willing to take such creative risks, and that gives the platform an overarching ethos in which innovation can thrive.

It’s certainly no coincidence that Kara should debut on the same week that PlayStation Plus subscribers embark on their first Journey. Indeed, Sony’s desire to move players through gameplay is becoming an increasingly key part of the publisher’s focus.

Personnaly , i loved this short-movie , just understand it and related with what happened in world this days

It’s always been there, bubbling beneath the surface: the original PlayStation arguably embedded itself in popular culture in a way that video games had rarely achieved prior. Meanwhile the PS2 was designed around the very idea of moving players, the vaunted Emotion Engine paving the path for unforgettable titles such as ICO and Shadow of the Colossus. But it’s only with the technical advancements of PS3 that Sony’s really managed to realise the vision it’s spent two generations striving towards: the ability to convey emotion through interaction.

How to read any iTunes ebook on all devices !

2012-03-12T12:29:00.000-07:00

Apple, in his infinite kindness, authorizes us to use books, music and movies legally purchased on its online store only via Apple labeled products.

From a purely economic standpoint, it is understood that the firm wants the apple topromote the sale of its products, but from the standpoint of the consumer it is difficult to justify the purchase of digital culture on the most popular shop the world must pass through a requirement to use Apple products or software.

What happens if I change my phone? I lose all my purchases? And if I want to read a book that I bought legally on my Android tablet how can I do?

If there is still no legal solution to this problem, hackers took over the problem and offerssoftware to remove DRM (digital rights management that limit the uses purchased files)of your books purchased on iTunes, as well as music and videos:

Illegal downloads down with 50% after MegaUpload closure

2012-03-12T12:22:00.000-07:00

A recent study by LFOP they says that nearly half of Internet users engaged in illegal downloading has stopped downloading one month after closing Megaupload.

A result that organizations that fight against piracy seized to justify their opinion the arbitrary closure of some websites without going through the box justice.

But what this study does not say is how the field of illegal downloading has changed in just one month to now place a proper system of sharing anonymized and moreuncontrollable!

If some people are bent on VPN solutions in an attempt to escape the radar of Hadopi,sometimes restrictive and rarely free to get a quality connection, other surfers chosesoftware that seem to form the next generation platforms file Sharing online: downloadanonymous systems, decentralized and non-censored.

Some time ago, I had already talked about Tribler, the BitTorrent client who took out a system for sharing files online virtually impossible to stop or censor, Foreshadowing afuture very difficult for anti-piracy by beneficiaries.

What has happened to Tribler following the closure of Megaupload? The number of users has just exploded!

And this is not the only application has encountered much success: RetroShare, sharing software encrypted open source allows to exchange all types of files with trusted contacts, without any external person can know what you made, since the flows are encrypted. And if you download a file from an unknown home, downloading transit via a contact person who has in his friends.

Do you want a free network ?

2012-03-12T12:18:00.002-07:00

Internet has become the ideal medium, to connect easily and quickly with its contacts andgive a voice to ordinary people who have no access to traditional media platforms, the network of networks scares governments that n have not usually have to deal with thecountry against this new form of power-that gives voice to all.

Since it is very easy for political institutions to put pressure on traditional media and onInternet access providers for information on the web or some troublemakers to thecensor, hackers have decided to start their own alternative network , allowing a total ofsharing the information.

This is their story:

Free the Network tells the story of enthusiasts who have decided to change the events by

bringing modern communications and uncensored for the protesters, including OperationOccupy Wall Street.

kinect and transparent PC (what Microsoft prepare to us)

2012-03-12T09:56:00.001-07:00

At Microsoft, it Carbide for severe happen to find THE next breakthrough innovation thatwill change how we interact with computers.

If the Kinect is rather a good start for the Redmond company, its presence in personal computers would not be of more practical for everyday use.

But the prototype designed by two young researchers at Microsoft (including a frenchie ^ ^) has gone far enough in innovation: gesture recognition, transparent screen and 3Ddesktop interface on the menu!

The transparent display allows you to type on the keyboard, but also to interact withthese windows on your desktop directly with your hands as you manipuleriez physical objects actually.

Botnet new generation skip to P2P

2012-03-12T09:51:00.003-07:00

A Botnet is a collection of computers controlled remotely by a person (usually via a Trojan horse), owners of infected computers rarely know that their computer is used forfraudulent transactions (DDoS, Spam, Phishing, malware distribution, etc..).

In general, a central server control these zombie computers. So just find that server andto cut off Internet access to stop sending new instructions to machines pirated.

Yes but now landed a new kind of Botnet: those that use the principle of Peer2Peer.

THOR is a Botnet developing that will soon be available for sale ($ 8000 anyway),because this kind of crap is able to report a lot of money to unscrupulous people who use them, and it attracts many customers willing to pay well to have such tools.

The main problem with THOR is that there is no central control point: the use of P2P is adecentralized botnet, very difficult to stop with simple measures of controlling the accessclosures of zombie computers, it also makes it very difficult to track down pirates who use it, since there will be virtually millions of access points to send new commands to the botnet, and it will be almost impossible to trace the original source ...

Communications between each instance of THOR are increasingly encrypted using a256-bit AES or something nearly impossible to decode without having the encryption keys.

This Botnet the future will be sold with modules to easily launch DDoS attacks, sending massive emails, saving passwords and data entered on the keyboard of infected machines ...

Hopefully a parade will be found quickly to what promises to be a real nuisance for personal computers connected to the Internet.

Display icons for attachments files in gmail

2012-03-12T09:28:00.002-07:00

A small lack of Gmail is that the interface does not display an icon for each type ofunderstanding attachment, so that when you search desperately for a PDF file in the middle of several Excel spreadsheets, for example, he'll have to open each email one by one to find the one you want.

A developer has created a small extension for Chrome that will correct this problem:

Attachment icons for Gmail will simply replace the paper clip icon now displayed whenyou have mail with attachments in your inbox with images corresponding to this type of file.
