The things you do when you are awake at 5 am for no reason…
Acrobat Reader has a really good commenting feature, which is neat for collaboration if you use LaTeX instead of Word (which is the mentally stable thing to do anyway). So, I tried to find out why I could not use this feature […]
AAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Screaming madness! The former genius One Laptop Per Child project now jumped the shark. After rubbing theirselves in blood. Now Microsoft has bought the project, and guess how many of the laptops will have the free, open, custom OS from now on? Nothing is more needed in these times than children that get educated […]
I have again updated my Greasemonkey script that cleans YouTube to show nothing but the video itself.
You can now change the settings by editing the source and setting the flags in the code header.
By default, the option for the small Ratings box under the video is deactivated, as I think that is nice to have […]
The best software in the world, Ubuntu, has released a new version today. I’ve already changed to Hardy Heron two weeks ago, and the transition went smoothly this time. I used the method Mark Shuttleworth described here to upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04.
Ubuntu has vastly improved over the last years and today is an operating […]
A neat software I discovered and tried today:GNUMP3d is a small server software to stream your music collection, and also includes a small web server that automatically provides a web interface. So - you can from a remote computer access your music collection. In the web interface, you choose which music to play and get […]
This is a new Greasemonkey script.
On YouTube video pages, everything but the video box itself will be removed. I like it that way, I only want to see the video, no comments, no ads, no nothing.
It’s a very haphazard script, may clear up in the future.
Get the script here.
You will, of course, need the Greasemonkey […]
As everyone and his mother tries to collect as much data as possible about you, you have to think about how much you want to reveal. Do you really want to have your IP saved with everything you searched for on Google? Maybe, but if there was an easy way to obstruct these data collections, […]
Mozilla is working on a Firefox addon called The Coop, which adds social networking functionality. Sounds very cool, and despite my usual paranoid caution about social networks, I will check this one out as soon as there is a working version!
I’ve been using emacs for several years now, and although I know the basic commands and even some advanced, I also know I have only scratched the surface of the available commands. So I found this introduction (PDF) to be of value, it taught me some commands I didn’t know. It’s called “Living in emacs”. […]
I was annoyed by all forms where you would have to enter an URL, but the http:// was already given in there, which is total nonsense if you use copy&paste. So I threw together a quick GreaseMonkey script, which didn’t take long fortunately.
So here is the script:
removehttpfromforms.user.js
It also has a UserScripts site.
In case you don’t […]
