I was the coolest kid in PreCalc, having
splurged and bought the six colored TI-83+ calculator cases offered on their web site. (True story.) Now
you can rice out your TI from the inside, overclocking your calculator
with a quick trip to Radio Shack, a soldering iron and a basic
comprehension of the term "will void your warranty." Overclocking TIs
is nothing new of course, but we believe each new generation deserves
to run TI-Snake and Drug Wars at its very quickest. Richfiles has full
step-by-step instructions and pictures for every model from the TI-81
to the TI-92.
Brain Hacks: Overclock your amygdala08/04/2004 06:13 AM Matt Webb -- whose party trick is uttering gnomic, interesting,
mind-bending sentences at the drop of a hat -- has gone public with
his new project. He and a brain-scientist pal are co-writing BRAIN
HACKS for O'Reilly: a hundred pithy tips for overlocking your
amygdala.
To get where it is, the brain has made some fascinating design
decisions. The layering of systems has produced a complex environment,
with automatic and controlled highly mixed. This development over
biological time has introduced constraints. As has the
architecture--it takes time for slow signals to make their way from
one area to another. And there are computational difficulties too: How
much of its capabilities can the brain afford to invoke when a
sub-second response is required? The tricks used leave traces. There
are holes in our visual field that we continually cover up. There are
certain sensory inputs that grab our attention faster and more
thoroughly than we'd expect.
You don't need to know all of neuroscience, cognitive psychology and
so on to know how your brain works. I'm not a neuroscientist. I write,
my undergraduate degree is in physics, I hack in my spare time, and I
work in new media. But neuroscience has got to such a level now - with
the imaging techniques in the last three or four years - that we can
make focused probes into particular functions, and illustrate the
traces that these design decisions have left (see where+how they are,
and draw that up the stack towards conscious experience) and we can
look at them one by one.
HOWTO overclock a Texas Instruments graphing calculator
HOWTO overclock a Texas Instruments graphing calculator04/17/2005 07:20 PM Cory Doctorow:
My dad, a high-school math teacher, loved the Texas
Instruments graphing calculators as an instructional tool. Nevermind
the early IR hacks that let students beam test-answers back and forth
during exams, the important thing was how much you could learn by
having ready access to a graphing calculator while doing quadratics
and the like.
Of course, those TI calculators were a little on the slow side. The
intarweb comes to the rescue: with just a little overclocking know
how, you can bring the older machines up to a blazing 12MHz and the
top-line beasties all the way up to 20MHz!
Curently, the TI-81, TI-82, TI-83, TI-85, TI-86, TI-89, TI-92,a nd
TI-92 Plus can be accelerated. The 81, 85 and 86 can be accelerated to
approximately 2-3x their normal speed, about 18 MHz. The TI-82 and
TI-83 can also be accelerated to about 1.5-2x normal speed. They only
about double their speed to around 12 MHz. The TI-89 and 92 can be
accelerated to around 20 MHz!
Rumor: iPAQ H6315 Details04/20/2004 07:17 AM There is no coffee here, so rumor will have to suffice. Someone on the
iPAQabilities boards is claiming to have toyed with one of the new
iPAQ H6315s, having been told by an HP employee that the PDA should be
released in May as a T-Mobile exclusive, August for AT&T...
HP releases software fix for h6315 PDA phone
HP releases software fix for h6315 PDA phone04/04/2005 07:23 PM Hewlett-Packard Co. (HP) released a software update last week for its
troubled iPaq h6315 handheld that promises to fix several issues that
left users frustrated and caused retail partner T-Mobile USA to remove
the device from its stores.
So it's not all roses for T-Mobile and HP's new
iPaq h6315 Pocket PC phone. According to users on various forums who
purchased the recently-released device, using the built-in GPRS
connection to send email over 4k in size can cause a disconnection
(and subsequent failure). Others are reporting issues connecting to
other internet services over GPRS connection (and even Wi-Fi, although
I think that's just a random issue). T-Mobile has acknowledged the
issue (not publically, but to users reporting in the forums), and word
has it there is a problem in the h6315 GPRS TCP/IP stack.
That should be fixable via software patch, which hopefully will hit
the web soon.
The HP
iPaq h6315 Windows Mobile smartphone has been troubled since it first
launched on T-Mobile, with email and connectivity issues that caused
the carrier to effectively pull the device off its shelves. Now
they're releasing a new ROM update that purports to fix most of the
issues, so if you've already plunked down the cash for a h6315 you
feel like you're stuck with, you'd be well served to give it download
before you go crying to T-Mobile for a replacement (and if it doesn't,
you should).
HP has officially pulled the
tarps from its new iPAQ line of Pocket PC PDAs; the first reviews are
just starting to trickle in. Mobile dervish Om Malik has had one of
the most exciting new iPAQ models, the h6315, in his hands for about a
week, and while it isn't the most favorable review I've ever read, it
still looks pretty exciting for anyone more technically minded in
search of a hyper-connected phone/PDA (we're talking GSM/GPRS, Wi-Fi,
and Bluetooth in a single device).
We'll have a bit more on some of the other iPAQs released today as
it comes in, at least if its anything new and interesting (most of the
details seem to be the same as we reported pre-release), but for now
here's some of the dirty details on the h6315.
It
looks like the problems with the HP iPaq h6315 over at T-Mobile are
coming to a head, with the device pulled from both business and
consumer sales sites, and an official, but unpublicized (until now)
exchange program for disatisfied customers. It looks like T-Mobile
will be offering refurbished Treo 600s and BlackBerries to those
customers who meet their replacement qualifications. PhoneMag has the
details, including the internal memo going out to the sales force with
information about the replacement and warranty status of the
h6315.
Transparent Databases08/08/2002 12:59 PM I had lunch with my old pal Peter Wayner yesterday, and he gave me
a copy of his new book, Translucent Databases. In the book, Peter
defines translucency as an approach that "lets some light escape the
system while still providing a layer of secrecy."

Here's a fun little
flickr gallery of "transparent desktop screens". Users take a picture
of whatever lies directly behind their displays, crop them
accordingly, set the picture as their new wallpaper, and take a
picture of the whole set up. Ultimately a lot of time spent on
something that only works if you don't move the computer at all, it's
a novel little visual trick nonetheless (and not Photoshopped,
either.) If nothing else, it might give you some inspiration for fun
desktop wallpapers of your own. Or you could use someone else's and
pretend to be on another desk altogether.
