About Nathan Drake
I love the Uncharted series on the PlayStation 3. So after Uncharted 3 arrived in my apartment on Nov 1, I finished the game in about 4 days in normal difficulty. Here I’m just jotting down what I like and what I don’t like from the latest installment on the epic adventure of Nathan Drake.
1. LIKE - epic story, surviving an airplane crash, chasing truck with horses, surviving sinking...

The announcement that Nexus One users won’t be getting upgraded to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich led some to justifiably question Google’s support of their devices. I look at it a little differently: Nexus One owners are lucky. I’ve been researching the history of OS updates on Android phones…

jQuery and prototype conflict: Array.shift()
Today, I had a case where I needed to use both libraries in one page.
I loaded both libraries normally, used jQuery.noConflict() to rename the $ to $j.
and renamed $ to jQuery in all the external js files that uses jQuery.
All seem to work just fine, however one of my function that is called using setTimeOut was still causing error. I know the problem is not in my code, since I already replaced...

Challenged completed!
Right now, I’m so tired, and my legs about to have a breakdown, but I’m here sitting and typing this post proudly.
I was team FactSet. My name might not show up on top two three four digits people that pass the finish line first. But I did it, the whole 3.1 miles. I did practice a few times before the race today, 1 -1.5 mile, but this was the real thing, the real pain. In addition to...

What I don’t like from the SteelSeries 7g.. Small backspace key. I hate this for two reasons; hard to reach with my pinky, and like to furiously backspacing when coding with 2 fingers, a habit i like to keep.

WebOS 2.1 Update
So about two days ago, I got a notification to update my Palm Pre 2 to WebOS 2.1. Process was pretty smooth and fast, no problem at all. I was excited about this update considering all the problems I had with the WebOS (see my previous post).
The only thing I don’t like about WebOS update (so far) is that they don’t announce the changes officially. I haven’t seen any document,...
Wow, I have to say Firefox 4 looks so much nicer on Windows than on OSX! equally fast though. The only problem I had: uploading this picture on tumblr, froze the FF4 for a few seconds.

WebOS pre-Pre3 Launch
Even just by looking at screenshots, it’s not difficult to pick WebOS as the winner of the multitasking on mobile platform. It is intuitive, admired by many well-known gadget news editors. In fact, for the first week of owning the Pre2 with WebOS 2.0, it was an amazing experience over the android (2.0.1) or the iphone(4.3). Multitasking was as easy as advertised/hyped/expected.
So...

Step-by-Step Configuring Synergy+
So the on the last post below, I talked shortly about Synergy+, a very useful application that allows a single pair of keyboard+mouse to be used across different computers. I usually have my laptop and desktops (win/mac/ubuntu) lined up on my work desk, and it would be very convenient to just use one set of input devices across all of them. Synergy+ solves this, it’s supposedly a...

No love for MacMall

Simple Model Versioning for Blender
Especially for newcomers in Blender like myself, it would be convenient to hit shift-v for example and have the current state of the model stored as a version which I can comeback to later on if I make any mistake along the line which I could not reverse. The idea is to be able to version a model without interfering with current work, to keep notes on those versions, and to be able to roll-back to...
Multi-OS Welcome Interface and Switcher
An idea for a welcome interface for multi-OS computers.
I have been running both ubuntu and windows vista on my media center PC. yes yes, I’m going to replace that vista with windows 7 soon. Truthfully, if Starcraft II runs on Ubuntu, I would not need the Windows system anymore. However, I love running multiple OS in the same machine, and would love to also have other OS-es in my PC to...
