Tuning in with TunA
Tuning in with TunA
12/04/2003 04:43 PMWe're still waiting for the first wireless iPods to appear, but Media
Lab Europe is already working on a software application called TunA
for streaming audio between wireless PDAs, cellphones, perhaps
someday, even MP3 players. Most certainly a promising step, but we'd
much rather be able to swap files with our friends, not stream them.
One of the big problems with TunA is that if the person whose device
you're streaming from moves out of WiFi range, you're out of luck.

addition is an addictive music-creation program. Called GarageBand, it
is simple enough for those of us who’ve never touched a keyboard or
strummed a guitar yet advanced enough to appeal to a polished
practitioner.” [Mar 1]

Time for loving
Time for loving
09/17/2004 02:38 AMI can't believe how much I love FuzzyClock. If
you've never heard of it, it's a simple app that puts the current time
into natural language. So instead of 2:53 it will say "ten til three."
At first I thought the lack of accuracy could be a problem, but I've
got lots of meetings and have never been late (just wait until it says
"shortly before eleven" and you'll be on time for it). Here
is what it looks like on my current menu bar (also running:
audioscrobbler, slimbattery, and instiki).
On the surface, it simply saves you a half-second of converting the
numbers 3:41 into "about twenty to four" in your head, but in practice
it removes a small mental tax you put yourself through
dozens-to-over-a-hundred times per day. After months of running this
app in place of the standard clock (I disabled it in my OS prefs and
run fuzzyclock on startup), I feel liberated in a small way. I've
spent my life surrounded by clocks and never realized how much easier
it is to read "half past twelve" than reading numbers.
Last week, I noticed Flickr
does timestamps on comments this way, which is a great idea and
something I should really do at metafilter. Someone's already written
a
function for it in PHP, I'm sure it'll be a MT plugin soon, if it
isn't already.

Two thumbs up for Mambo. I'm experienced with a few different CMSs and
decided to try
Mambo because I was building a site on a site that had a lot of
limitations (one database
and no access to the php.ini).
What a relief it was to use. Finally something that breaks the Nuke
mold. It’s really slick and
easy to hand off to non-technical people. You don’t have to disable a
lot of features that
you’ll never use.

I tend to listen to same songs over and over with my eyes
half-closed. Many
of the songs I am enjoying of late are Norah Jones songs. She
sings very well
but I enjoy her songs because they are easy to sing. Here are
some of her songs
I like:
-
Come Away with Me (sleepy seduction)
-
Don't Know Why (fast moody jog)
-
Lonestar (best on horseback)
-
One Flight Down (slow moody swaying)
-
Shoot the Moon (excellent guitar!)
-
Cold Cold Heart (nice rythm)

Loving and Hating iTunes
Loving and Hating iTunes
12/19/2003 11:54 AMA new PC World music column explores iTunes and how it changed the
world of digital music. Stressing the superiority of iTunes for
Windows over many competitors, the article does mention several
concerns. One such issue is the way Apple updates iTunes, not as
patches, but as complete version upgrades, meaning many-megabyte
downloads. Another concern is difficulties moving songs from a work
computer to a home computer, and the fact that an iPod cannot be used
to do this. The article...

01/17/2004 10:48 PMI am being forced to watch the Finnish qualification for the
Eurovision Song
Contest. Dear Lord. This is like watching Idols - the first few
rounds. You know, the ones with the acne-faced idiots who actually
think they can sing?
Well. The only difference that I can see here is that all of the
singers are pretty (and red-haired), and that the songs are new. But
why, oh why, do we continue to embarrass ourselves by thinking that
someone in Europe would actually be interested in this crap? And why
do we keep thinking that we have to do well in this stupid contest to
be accepted? Well, now they at least have songs performed by a
Norwegian, in English, written by a bunch of people none of have a
Finnish name...
Who the fuck thinks of lyrics like "mouse in the misery - cheese
in his memory"? WHAAAT!?! And they have one of the people from
the Swedish Survivors performing, too! And someone, please kill the
bloody hosts! "Du gick en pojkvän där? That was Swedish.
Heheheheh." This is would be damn near intolerable, if I wasn't
laughing my ass off...
Well, luckily there are few songs 16 year old Lagavulin and good
company can't improve. ;-)
(OK, I'll have to give it to one performer: she can actually sing, pronounce English
and look pretty at the same time. Something which seems to be very
difficult for the rest of the performers.)

EFF reviews freedom-loving MacOS
high-def TV toy
EFF reviews freedom-loving MacOS
high-def TV toy
01/05/2005 07:09 PMCory Doctorow:
With only half a year left until the FCC criminalizes watching
television without
DRM (thanks to the loathsome Broadcast Flag), it's time to start
stocking up on open hardware that can tune, record and manipulate
digital TV signals without Hollywood's irrational, paranoid shackles.
If you've got a Mac, that means scoring one of El Gato's new EyeTV
500s, a device that can move digital TV shows form your rabbit ears or
your cable wire to your Mac in glorious high-def, as plan-jane MPEGs
that you can manipulate, share, rip, mix and burn till the cows come
home.
My cow-orker Fred von Lohmann, EFF's Senior Intellectual Property
Lawyer, is also a certified hi-fi nut, gearhead, and gadget freak. He
scored a review-unit of the EyeTV 500 and wrote up a review of its
freedom-enhancing capabilities.
As a demo of those capabilities, EFF is hosting a five minute high-def
clip from Fellowship of the Rings (Torrent
Link), which occupies a thunderous 500MB of hard-drive (!). The
studios argued that the Broadcast Flag was necessary to keep viewers
from sharing high-def movies over the Internet -- at 500MB per five
minutes, that seems a little far-fetched.
The tiny silver lining here is that if you can get an open,
freedom-loving digital television tuner between now and the summer,
you'll be able to go on doing practically anything you like with the
digital television you receive over the air and with your unencrypted
cable signal. If you choose to do this by plugging a DTV tuner into
your computer, you'll be able to archive your shows on your
hard-drive, manipulate them with your favorite editing software, and
email clips to your friends.
