“There were well more than 100 entries in this remix competition—and picking the winner was a tough tough decision. It’s clear that the challenge of making music based on the sound of Hitachi hard drives failing was as much a reason to take part as winning the Tokyoflash Equalizer watch.”

Pairs for Windows
After unsuccessfully trying to make Pairs, an AGA Amiga solitaire game, work under Windows using WinUAE, I went looking for native alternatives. I found out this particular variant of Mahjong is called Shisen-Sho. From the Shisen-Sho games listed on Vegard Krog Petersen’s site I tried a few and found the best two for my liking were Shisen-Sho by iBinx (which is free) and Shisen for Java.

PC in a bottle
They used to hide bottles inside books once. Times sure have changed…
“I love to tinker with hardware etc. so I wanted to make something quite unique for a case. I have seen many nice and creative cases before but none of them were made out of a bottle. In November I bought an industrial 3.5” SBC board (with Socket370). For the project I selected a 1.5 litre Ballantine’s bottle for case. That was the proper size and shape for the task at hand.”

“Jäsenten käyttöön on otettu uusi tietokantapalvelin. Uusi järjestely vaatii jäsenien käyttämiin www-sovelluksiin pieniä muutoksia. Tähän muutokseen on varattu kaksi viikkoa siirtymäaikaa.
Nykyisen “localhost”-osoitteen tilalle täytyy muuttaa “db1.kapsi.fi” (ilman heittomerkkejä). Helpdesk on laatinut asiasta pikaohjeen, jossa neuvotaan osoitteen muutos www-ohjelmiin.”
Toteutin tämän muutoksen äsken kaikkiin WordPressillä toimiviin blogeihini (pikaohjeen mukaisesti, vaikken sitä siinä vaiheessa vielä ollutkaan lukenut), ja kaikki näyttää toimivan ihan hyvin.
