In last few days I’ve spent some time on video.google.com watching various videos about Second Life. I thought it would be a good idea to blog about the few I find interesting to watch. So if you haven’t seen some or any of them, and you have a lot free time on your hands go ahead and watch them.

If you would like to have the secondlife:// protocol handling under Linux here is what you have to do:
1) Install Firefox
2) Launch it and in the address bar type:
about:config
3) Right click anywhere on the window and choose
New->Boolean
4) Type:
network.protocol-handler.external.secondlife
and choose
true
5) Again right click and choose
New->String
and type
network.protocol-handler.app.secondlife
and then type
/your/path/to/secondlife — it has to point to the secondlife script not to the folder alone (ie. /home/yazzgoth/SecondLife/secondlife )

I’ve just read a story about rubber ducks that ended up loose in water in 1992. Now after 15 years of journey across the globe, rubber ducks, turtles and frogs drifted to South-West England shores.
It seems that these rubber toys have some value for an US company which offers £50 bounty for finding one.
For any web page visibility on search engines is a vital.
So how does my blog is doing?
search phrase: yazzgoth
place: 3
(when I’ve chosen this nickname I didn’t know that “yazzgoth” is a name of heavy metal band - polish band btw)
search phrase: bartosz ptaszynski
place: 5
(small note here: the 1st place takes my LinkedIn profile :D)
search phrase: coder’s life
place: unknown (I didn’t find it on the first 10pages)
So I guess there’s a reason to change the blog’s name to something more informative… hmm but what?
So this is like the world looks like at 4am
After reading ZenHabits I’ve decided to convert myself from being a Night Owl into an Early Bird.
I’m rather extremist when it comes to changing something. I usually do things on one go when it comes to changes in my life, so instead of waking up every day 10 minutes earlier until I would reach the 4am target - I have set up my alarm to 4am
To be honest this is not my first attempt
Yesterday I’ve tried, but made a critical error of reasoning with myself to go to bed for just a bit more… and I’ve stayed in until 8am
Well they have warned me not to reason with myself in the morning…
And again, Fridays are not the best time to change something in your life… but hey, had to start someday.
This little program is what I’ve mentioned earlier on my blog. It connects to all devices it can find in specified IP ranges via SMTP and gathers their MAC tables.
The plan is to keep this data in a DB and update it once in a while (20min would seem appropriate ). Then you can easily pin point what route do packets take on the L2 of the network and what Subscriber Module (SM) has a client using specific IP address/MAC.
This can be very useful in Motorola Canopy based networks with open architecture.
Package still under development.
Currently to make it work you need:
* Motorola Canopy based network
* Net-SNMP binaries (snmpwalk)
* Python 2.5
* SQLObject
* IPy
* SQLite
1) Download and install Net-SNMP binaries (or compile it if you wish) and make sure the executables are within PATH.
2) Install Python 2.5
3) To make your life easier download and run ez_setup.py to install latest distutils.
4) From the command line type: easy_install SQLObject
which should download and install SQLObject (and most likely SQLite as well - if not download SQLite and install it)
5) From the command line type: easy_install IPy
6) Now you can use following script
My blog has moved to this page.
Well I was tempted to give the WordPress a ride for some time now. The thing that pushed me over the edge was the code syntax highlighting that I had some problems with on blogger.
I’m using SyntHihol with geishi and it’s working perfectly.
I’ve just stumbled upon Microsoft’s Photosynth. This astonishing technology takes hundreds pictures of the same place taken from a different angles and creates a 3D image…
I can imagine that if someone would take this technology, used the images from Google Images or Flickr and assigned them to a location and plugged that into Google Earth … the result would be just jaw dropping.
I have a feeling that in some time that someone will be Google ![]()
I’ve stumbled upon a great website on Lifehacking while reading Torley’s blog…
I find a lot of things mentioned there that I already do or figured out the hard way… but there’s so many things I can introduce to my life it makes me so excited that I think I’ll start straight away.
Having a good idea is easy. Executing the idea is where most people fail.
…as you can read here.
This is so true it just hurts… I have so many ideas, just making a decision on which to pursue first is the hard one, and often a fatal in this sense that it may lead to not doing anything at all!
