A Whole New DOTA Experience

the best game in our generation just got better!

DOTA(Defence of the Tower All-Stars)it is now being translated in many languages like

• FRENCH
• GERMAN
• CZECH
• TAIWANESE

giving them the opportunity to play the best game ever. just imagine the skill set and description of every hero in Dota is in French. that is so awesome. its hard to understand, but look at it in a better perspective, it means that it just got better.

i can remember the day, when Square Soft finally translated a Final Fantasy Franchise in English, it is best game ever back then. just imagine if the Final Fantasy was translated because of its ratings and should be given to the public in other language.

it just hit me that being translated in another 4 different language, no game could ever get close. anyway thats the power of open source. power of the community and power to harness that power.Technorati Profile

Philippine National Security

Globe Telecoms, one of the biggest or the monstrous Telecommunication Company in the Philippines has send me a message to my phone, which is a very scary one.

they sent me a text message containing this.

"Free Globe Info: Get the location of your family and friends the easy way with the new Tracker Website! Visit www.globe.com.ph/tracker now! no Info? Reply Stop."
from:2977

what did they say? tracker? its like that they already know where we are.?
they can read what our text messages and know where we are? that kind of information is very very scary.

can you imagine that?

but in a better perspective its like a better security, if it helps for the better but if it is used in a wrong way. it is an explosive and destructive innovation.

we'll just hope it is used for good.

Free Operating System

since then, since i started to play with personal computer, i was always fascinated with windows' back then it was just DOS,.(Microsoft Disk Operating System) so you will be needing to operate the operating system through the use of command line interface,

example of commands are:

• dir
• md
• cd
• copy
• del
• etc..

but until i was listening to my college days, which linux was discussed as a free operating system, which i thought was just a hocus focus,(in my mind that i was always using microsoft's products and how come it is free?).

after a couple of months i tried ubuntu, and i was fascinated because you dont need other softwares to operate on your computer. because ubuntu gives you all the benefits and all you can do with your computer are provided after installing the operating system, unlike windows after buying and then installing the Operating System then you need to buy again for microsoft office, to word process.

last two days i installed linux as a permanent operating system on my desktop PC, and then last night i upgraded my UBUNTU 8.10 Desktop Edition to UBUNTU 9.04 Desktop Edition.

linux ubuntu is an enterprise linux, which has so many features.
one of the best features is the always reliable updates(all kinds of updates), the completeness of all-you-need tools(even photo editing software like photoshop has a linux free version called GIMP), and so many other things.

you should try it some time it dont cost a thing and be fascinated that you dont need to spend money to have an all-in-one operating system.

Easy Photo to Text Art

i have come to this cool application where in you could make any text art out of any picture, if you made this out of photoshop or any photo editing software could take you hours or days but in this application only seconds in just a few steps you could have a text art out of any picture you have, with the right settings you are good to go, i even put the text art on my facebook profile picture, here is an example.

this is before



this is after
cool right, visit this website http://lapin-bleu.net/software/textorizer/ and download the software, it is a cross platform, so windows or linux or mac could have this application, it is made from java so you will be needing a Java runtime environment and a Java Virtual machine installed, download it from java.com

iphone price?

a few months ago i was watching the unveiling of the iphone, and Steve Jobs said it was only for $199. and now it is soaring as much as 40K++ php,..

did he lied? "liar liar his ass is on fire" or did he just made a mistake? iphone is a great gadget/phone but apple made a mistake,.

if you look into a wider perspective, its the supply and demand thing which is i learned from economics back on college. that if the demand is high and supply is less than the demand the price is very much affected by this, then the vice versa which is if the demand is lower than the supply the price would drop a fair amount to make the producers have their budget constraints met.

its an applauding move for apple or other telcos.
