Super-correcting DVD players make
pirated discs watchable 08/12/2004 11:21 AM
Jiangsu Shinco Electronic Group is a Chinese company that manufactures "super-correcting" DVD players that automatically correct for the low quality of pirated DVD discs (though the article doesn't say whether this corrects for bad pressing or bad recordings, I suspect it's the former). They get some of their parts from Sony!

Enter the caoqiang jiuchuo or "super-correcting" Chinese model of DVD player. Developed by the Jiangsu Shinco Electronic Group and selling for about half the cost of brands such as Philips and Sony, it is designed to cope with the poor quality of pirated video discs.

Along with half a dozen domestic brands that have followed its lead, the company's Shinco brand has grabbed about 80 per cent of the Chinese market. Its factories produce 5 million DVD players a year, and, says Zeng Ming, a management expert who has studied the company, its annual sales are about $US1 billion ($1.35 billion).

An agreement to develop an advanced mobile phone standard capable of sending high-resolution video in an instant has been reached between leading wireless carriers and telecoms equipment makers. CNN reports that a group of 26 companies, including Britain's Vodafone Group Plc, Germany's Siemens AG, France's Alcatel and Japan's NEC Corp. and DoCoMo, will support the standard. Mobile phone services based on the technology will offer transmission speeds more than 10 times as fast as the current third-generation (3G) service. Basic technological specifications will be compiled by 2007 but no date has been set for a commercial launch, a DoCoMo spokesman said.

[This is an edited version of the talk I gave last fall at the State of Play conference.] I'm sort of odd-man-out in a Games and Law conference, in that my primary area of inquiry isn't games but social software. Not only am I not a lawyer, I don't even spend most of my time thinking about game problems. I spend my time thinking about software that supports group interaction across a fairly wide range of social patterns. So, instead of working from case law out, which has been a theme here (and here's where I insert the "I am not a lawyer" disclaimer) I'm going to propose a thought experiment looking from the outside in. And I want to pick up on something that Julian [Dibbell] said earlier about game worlds: 'users are the state.' The thought experiment I want to propose is to agree with that sentiment, and to ask "How far can we go in that direction?" Instead of looking for the places where game users are currently suing or fighting one another, forcing the owners of various virtual worlds to deal with these things one crisis at a time, I want to ask the question "What would happen if we wanted to build a world where we maximized the amount of user control? What would that look like?" I'm going to make that argument in three pieces. First, I'm going to do a little background on group structure and the tension between the individual and the group. Then I want to contrast briefly governance in real and virtual worlds. Finally I want to propose a thought experiment on placing control of online spaces in the hands of the users. - More at http://www.shirky.com/writings/nomic.html

Many years ago, before I got broadband, I remember sometimes having to leave my computer turned on overnight to complete some huge (back then: anything over a few MBs) download, only to oftentimes find in the morning that my modem had hung up shortly after I went to bed. Last night, I felt like I was back in that age... (265 words)

Dial [fn] for Exposé

Dial [fn] for Exposé 12/11/2003 04:58 PM
I've just--on the advice of Mac-pal Duncan--remapped Exposé to the [fn] key instead of [f9]. This is just the next step in my logical progression towards an Exposé-driven life. I started out a "hider", hiding everything but the active app in an effort to reduce on-screen app clutter. Enter Exposé... I mapped all four screen corners to All Windows Exposé view. My multi-button optical mouse's thumb button does the same. And I've become pretty efficient at reaching across the keyboard to [f9] for action. Moving that to [fn] brings things closer to home (row).

My favourite hint on selecting apps with Exposé is to use the Exposé key or button both to spread app thumbnails across the desktop and to select the one I'm interested in rather than Exposé button > click, Exposé button > click.

The dial-up mountain retreat

The dial-up mountain retreat 02/01/2005 09:15 PM
With the new year comes new changes and challenges, and for me the biggest challenge is a return to a dial-up Internet connection. I've moved to New Hampshire to a wonderful cozy house close to all the wintry goodness I crave: downhill skiing, ice skating, snow shoeing (haven't tried this yet but I'm sure I'll like it), and hilly mountain runs. The setting is idyllic, atop a mountain with our own ski trails (an old rope tow trail runs alongside our driveway, alas no longer operational, requiring one to hike back up after a nice schuss down the slopes) surrounded by tall stands of evergreens and birch trees. The near-daily snow fall has blanketed the landscape in fluffy white, while indoors Bodhi and I enjoy the warmth of the wood-burning stove. And all is peaceful and good, except for the fucking internet connection. A return to dial-up after five years of high-speed access is like forsaking a car for a horse and buggy. It's maddeningly slow and impossible to adapt to when you know you could be getting there faster! Added to that is my ISPs propensity to drop my connection while I'm in the middle of downloading, and I think I may go mad. When contemplating the move, I had grand dreams of spending less time online and spending more reading and connecting with the "real world." But what I've discovered so far is that dial-up doesn't mean I'm online less. It pretty much means I'm not online at all. I just connect to download email (which takes anywhere from 30-45 minutes, twice a day) and then I'm off. I can't really do anything else online while I'm downloading email or it takes even longer to get the mail, and by the time I'm done, I've got some phone call to make or errand to run and off I go. Some people choose to be Luddites, others have Ludditity thrust upon them.
