Just posted a new instructable about enhancing the grip of the xbox 360 controllers, hahaha.

Check it here!

Take care!

El otro día iba manejando por la calle y terminé atrás de un camión que cargaba arbolitos de navidad.

Cursi, pero por varias cuadras estuve oliendo los pinos en una mañana fresca y con sol. Como si la navidad fuera caminando por la calle.

=)

Me encontré este comercial impreso en la "Revista Interamericana Visión" del 28 de Enero de 1977... se me hizo interesante.

Right now I'm really sad.

My brand new Ubuntu 7.10 Instalation went without any hassle. Just an amazing OS, robust and filled with a lot of amazing apps, and even with an amazing eye candy like the desktop cube and all that stuff, linux was perfect, just perfect.

Then, I upgraded to ubuntu 8.04... the multi screen support went off, but WTH, it's still pretty usable, despite the akward screen resolution... but still usable. Even having to fix the funky thing with the keyboard still usable...

Then, I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 and everything went wrong... My DEL XPS 1330 stopped working, both the external screen and the keyboard... after trying to fix the keyboard, the external screen and the resolution AND the desktop effects quitted working...

My very own Windows Vista distribution don't work for me... it's very slow, takes ages to copy files between media, crashes everytime I try to open IE... and linux is like an exotic sports car, with variable suspension... but with all the fairings stolen.

... sad

P.S. Maybe I should buy an MacBook

We have a new pet at the office... It's like a real pet, just without the mess. And you carry it on your pocket.

Linux penguin FTW!

We have a small place at the office, where we keep all our reading stuff... We have some art magazines, programming books, enterpreneur handbooks, sci-fi, Silmarillion, tech stuff... Basically, anything we like to read from time to time.

I really like this place, you can sit and warm a little under the sun. (click over the pic for a bigger size one)

This is a pic of my brand new Star Wars t-shirt. Also bought at the Baratillo flea market, here at Guadalajara, just like the megaman tee

BTW I made the kessel run in less than 12 parsecs too, but riding a pimped segway ;)

Ans also, you can see the tee at flickr.

I just bought a new retro tee at a flea market called "el baratillo" (like "the cheapy") here at my city.

Take a look of ye olde retro style!

I've just upgraded from Hardy Heron to Intrepid Ibix (Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubunt 8.10) and my notebook just started doing all wrong stuff.

The navigation arrows stopped working, the UP key takes a screenshot, the left and right ones don't neither the DEL key, the AltGr starts acting as an ENTER key...

This was fixed by following this post, basically you have to choose a different keyboard model:

And then restart the computer...

Anyway, the Desktop Effects are just dead now =(

Yesterday I showed how to hide all the windows (under Windows XP) with a silent foot movement =P

The time has come for linux, and I'll show how to rotate the linux cube by using an old pair of wheel game peripheral pedals, the instructable is right here =P

Check the video of the working device here:

So, get to move your feet instead just let them lie around your desktop, haha!

Wiggle your big toe.
Wiggle your big toe.
Wiggle your big toe.
Hard part's over.
Now, let's get these other piggies wiggling.

Last night I finished a computer MOD project I had around my head for about 5 or 6 months, you can watch the instructions here even tho I would like to use Linux as much as I can, this pedal is only compatible (at this moment) for Windows XP... I'm looking forward to find an equivalent Linux application for the "AutoHotKey"...

It's a small foot pedal to hide all the windows with a silent and discreet foot killer-movement.

=P

Check the video of the working device here
