Hello guys, back after the long off-time of Blogger.com.
Today i read about an interesting open source software that could be interesting for everyone.
An interesting scenario took its place in New York/Canada
The SEO-Expert Sean Power was currently in Canada as somebody in Soho turned on his notebook what got stolen a few days ago.
So Sean is a user of the Powerfull Open-Source tool Prey.
Any mobile phone with open-source software running on could get in use of prey.
By the way, Sean got his notebook back, he ordered someone on twitter to get to the place his notebook was last spottet by prey. The police officers of New York dont mentioned to help him, cause he has not reported early enough that it got stolen.
Twitter could be real usefull in the future though as we see in this case ;)
Main features of pray:
If you want to take a further look or maybe try it - get it here: prey project
The last 4 years google was holding the first place on this ranking list, now the last days brandz.com decided to replace google with Apple, and as you can see here on their page were you can browse the top 100global brands and also read their report to it Brandz Top 100 / 2011(Most valuable global brands)
Also this video could be interesting - fast view through the Top 100 global brands.
Apple has grown about 84% the last year and so on they managed to get in this high position.
Steve Jobs says in an Interview: "Apple users feel their individuality and express them with apple products, this will continue"
The next upcoming candidate is Facebook they have grewn about 245% and this year is their first time on the Top 100 global brand list, they start there at the 35.th Place.
Nokia have announced their plans for the year 2012 in desktop developing, they are planning to release the new Qt5 Framework for Linux their objectives for the next Release QT 5 are:
Make better use of the GPU, allowing you to create smooth (and accelerated) graphics performance even with limited resources;
Making your creation of advanced applications and UIs easier and faster (with QML and Javascript);
Make apps connected to the web be as powerful as possible, i.e. to embed and power up web content and services into any Qt app; and
Reduce the complexity and amount of code required to maintain and implement a port.
Nokia QT 5 Components for Desktop show off:
Youtube sucks so here is a screenshot of the Widgets and applets that will be possible, not so impressive as the video imho.
So i bought mysel an Nokia N900 about an year ago :)
I think it's the best phone on this Planet! It barely never died und the Software Repository for it is great and free for all, no buying anywhere, cause it is an 100% open source Software running on this Piece of fantastic Technique!
Here just take a look at this!
HAH an too one of the greatest videos ever be done for an Phone :) nice try from Nokia!
Now to hack a and free an Play Station 3 from Sony entertainment system you obnly have to install some Open source apps on your Phone!
Disclaimers:
- Use at your own risk. (Although I can't think of anything bad that might happen)
- No Piracy tolerated. This should be used to Backup your precious bought games only.
- It is unknown what short term or long term effects this will have on online play, if at all.
This guide covers the matter in extensive detail. So even if you’ve never ventured with your N900 before, you’ll still be able to follow.
This guide will cause Pro users to bleed from their eyes
This guide will cover Jailbreaking your PS3 with the N900 using PSFreedom and installing and running the PSJailbreak Backup Manager(Working!!).
PSFreedom WAS NOT MADE BY ME.
Give thanks to the Maker KaKaRoto: kakaroto.homelinux.net
Hardware you will need:
N900 (Should now work on Power and Regular Kernel)
PS3 with firmware 3.41 (I haven't tested on older)
PSFreedom Application Method - GUI:
Enable Extras-Devel Repository on your N900:
Application manager –> Application catalogs –> New
Catalog name: Maemo Extras-devel
Web address: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/
Distribution: fremantle
Components: free non-free
Let it update the catalogues. Then choose Download and find PSFreedom. Install it.
Make sure your N900 is connected to same WiFi as your PC.
Identify your N900s IP address . (You can find a nice widget for this HERE )
Launch WinSCP:
Hostname: IP of the N900 (Example: 192.168.1.5)
Port: 22
Click login.
You’ll be promted for username and password. The username is root and the password is what you’ve entered earlier.
WinSCP will take you to the browsing panes.
Left Pane is your PC. Right Pane is your N900.
Identify which Kernel do you have on your N900:
In N900 Terminal Type:
Code:
uname -r
If it says something with "power" in it. It's Power.
2.6.28-omap1 is Regular
Back to WinSCP:
Browse to and Copy (F5) the 3 PSFreedom files from your PC to your N900s /root folder
(You will get no output for these commands)
Now run the script:
Code:
./psfreedom-enable.sh
(Nothing should happen, if you get an error: unable to insert “-”, you are running power kernel, you need to be running stock kernel or use the Power Kernel Driver) Using PSFreedom on Your PS3:
Now. Unplug your ps3 from Power.
Connect then N900.
Plug back your PS3s power.
Click the Power button then quickly click and hold the Eject button (for maybe 7 seconds, if you hear 1 beep, let go).
How do you know you did it fast enough?
You won’t hear 2 beeps when you first hit the eject button. I prefer using both my hands
Nothing will seem to be happening. That’s fine. The n900 will show the Storage or PC Suite window. Then a warning about insufficient power.
How do you know it worked?
On the ps3, there should be a new option, under Game called: Install Packages.
Backup Manager:
You can get the Original Backup Manager from here: http://www.pandawillforum.com/redire...&goto=lastpost
There is also a "Stealth" Backup Manager if you'd like to Try. (Although its effectiveness is questionable) (Read about it Here): http://www.ps3-hacks.com/file/86
Put the manager.pkg into the root of a separate storage media (USB Drive or HDD) other than N900. Plug that USB in the PS3. After that, you will see the package manager under *install packages files* on your PS3. Choose to install it.
Launch the Backup Manager which is now under Game. Preferably with a game inside your PS3
Note: You have to have an original game (Any) inserted to load a backup at all times.
