The VLC people are working on a Video Editor

So I’m not going to lie I’m pretty darn excited about this one. I been using VLC for a few years now and its the best video media player out there. Its simple yet plays anything you throw at it. To hear that the team behind VLC is working on a video editor makes me think today is going to be a kick ass day, and I should go out and buy myself a flip video camera or something of that nature, cause this would be perfect for my home videos which would basically consist of me and my house mates doing retard shit and maybe a few video interviews. Anyways back to the subject at hand there wasn’t much said about a release date but I’ll keep ya’ll informed. Till then if your interested in VLC definitely download it and give it a try.

Google DNS Helper, pretty usefull little app

 

 

 

Google DNS Helper offers you the chance to try out Googles Public DNS with no commitments. Which is pretty handy, I had switched my routers DNS  to Googles public DNS as soon as they released it. I ran with it for about a week, thinking that it had to be faster but It really wasn’t. So I went back. With Google DNS helper you don’t have to go through the bull shit I did with your router you can just download run and press the switch button. It also backs up your old DNS address so that you can easily switch back.

Check out this link to download the App.

Stella Artois Le Bar Guide Iphone App pretty rad!

My hats off to Stella Artois, their new Iphone Bar guide is awesome! The app locates the closest bar around you that serves Stella Artois and also lets your rate the bar once you get there. Another pretty kick ass feature is the Le Taxi menu it really doesn’t do much other then get you the number for local taxi companies, but fucking A! would that be kick ass some nights!

Military Tech wasting the big bucks and forgetting the little things! Its the American way.

So yesterday I found this interesting story but was slacking so i never got around too posting it (I know terrible but shit happens). According to the Wall Street journal, Iraqi insurgents have been using a $26 Russian program called SkyGrabber to hack into Predator drones live video feeds. The Predators apparently transmits video over a unencrypted link. What makes this worse is that Pentagon officials have known about this since the early 90’s but never figured that insurgents would learn how to exploit it. You fucking retards!  Its hard to believe you fuckers aren’t all on drugs.

On a lighter Raytheon is building this sweet iphone app for soldiers in the field.

It shows friends and foes in real time over maps of the battlefield. The App works like this according to Raytheon Intelligence and Information Systems’ CTO J smart.

This is hypothetical, but if there is a building with known terrorist activities, it could automatically be pushed to the phone when the soldiers get near that area. If there was another platoon that was supposed to arrive, and they were delayed, or ahead of schedule, you could adapt your plan. If one of the units you are counting on is redirected, you know that in real time.”

Also he mentions that the app can be used for police,firemen, and emergency services. The post on Gizmodo also mentioned that Raytheon was build a ruggedized case that included a larger battery and a special scrambler that will secure communication with other military units. (Good job Raytheon!)

Google Nexus One

Good morning interweb how was your weekend? Crazy as I could imagine after Google On Friday handed out free phones to some of their employs. All weekend we been hearing about the Google Phone, which is built by HTC and called the Google Nexus One. Apparently this phone isn’t going to be sold by any carrier well at least for now, Google plans to offer it directly to consumers. The crazy thing about this phone is that its Unlocked and you should be able to use it with any GSM network (AT&T and T-mobile also pretty much any carrier in Europe. Perfect  when I need to call my avo in the motherland) It even has a little set up program to help you pick which plan you would like. The Phone is suppose to be released sometime in early 2010, Running a new version of Android 2.1 which apparently was completely designed by Google. (Unlike prior version that were only a little designed by Google haha I’m pretty sure I remember hearing the same thing about the version of Android on the Droid ).

Anyways the specs for the phone so far seem to be pretty bad ass

• 1GHz Dragon processor
• OLED Touch Screen
• Dual Mic’s (Canceling out background noise)
• Enhanced Voice-to-text (Prefect for us Rhode Islanders)
