My old PC case, featuring some practical hacks. Pictured here is the relay unit inside the case, powering the monitor and external speakers when the computer is on. The relay is a bulky 12V DPDT switch. The two switches are ganged to handle greater current, but I think they could each have handled the load. A fuse makes doubly sure.
Not seen is the 12V input to the relay. It's connected to a Molex from the power supply like a fan. A little zener diode connects the positive and negative to ground off any back current when the relay switches off.
Through the firewall goes a stunt rider as part of the Flyin' Ryan display at Oundle Carnival. She performed several stunts including this one.
I've neglected Flickr recently and totally bailed out of the 365! A quick batch upload of some recent photos.
Appin is a remote coastal district of the Scottish West Highlands bounded to the west by Loch Linnhe, to the south by Loch Creran, to the east by the districts of Benderloch and Lorne, and to the north by Loch Leven. It lies north-east to south-west, and measures 14 miles (23 km) in length by 7 miles (11 km) in breadth.
Hackers Creek, near Jane Lew, Lewis County, West Virginia
John Hacker is my 5th great grandfather.
Beginning in the 1760s when the earliest settlers crossed the divides of the Allegheny Mountains and made their tomahawk claims along the waters of the upper Monongahela River in what became the Hacker's Creek settlements of western Virginia, the names and exploits of the frontiersmen of the region were indelibly inscribed in the pages of American history. These settlements were the western frontier of the fledgling nation far longer than any place in its western expansion; and, there were more conflicts between its people and the red man during the last half of the eighteenth century than anywhere else on the long frontier.
Hacker's Creek was named for John Hacker, a Stafford County,Virginia, native who came with the first party of men to settle at present-day Buckhannon, Upshur County, West Virginia. Finding that land he desired at Buckhannon had already been claimed by Samuel Pringle, an earlier sojourner in the region, he crossed the Buckhannon Mountain and selected four hundred acres on a tributary of the Muddy River, as the West Fork of the Monongahela River was then called. John Hacker thus became the first permanent European settler in what is today's Lewis County, West Virginia.
So here I am poster boy for the Tog hackerspace. Why? No clue. That photo is from 2002 at h2k2. I guess I am now a stock photo for hacking.
It's much easier if you leave the side and armholes intact. The extra width is taken up with pleats or tucks. I came across the idea for cutting off the shoulders and pleating from Craft Stylish magazine. They just sewed the shoulders at the cut, but I added the triangle piece for a better fit across the shoulders and neck and it gave me a bigger armhole to fit over a shirt. I cut the triangle from the sleeve. In the magazine they cut the sleeve to the armhole seam. I left some to fold over into a cap sleeve. Other hackers seem to be okay with frayed edges, but I like a neat hemmed look on the cut parts.
Now that depression era values are back there's a rash of ideas for reusing old stuff.
Well I had a scary incident today. Someone tried to hack my account. So I had just gotten done with my Sunday studies and was checking my email. I got an email from Yahoo! asking me if I had changed my password. I clicked the like that said no and quickly changed my password to a new one. It had happened at 3pm MST just moments ago when I checked my email.. Thank God I finished my studies right on time.
Hacking Arts (October 3-5), an annual student-run festival and hackathon hosted at the MIT Media Lab, marked the launch of MIT STARTUP. Hacking Arts features talks by entrepreneurs in the creative industries, tech-enabled live performances and art pieces, and demos by emergent start-ups. This year’s kick-off party at Microsoft’s Nerd Center featured a performance by Grammy-nominated artist Ryan Leslie and an ideation session by Kiran Gandhi, the drummer of MIA.
The following day, participants attended panels on Film, Music, Design, Virtual Reality, Fashion, Gaming, Performing Arts and Visual Arts, hearing from speakers such as Benji Rogers (CEO, Pledgemusic), Kevin Cunningham (Executive Artistic Director, 3-Legged Dog Productions) and Laird Malamed (COO, Oculus VR). Afterward, participants put their ideas into action during the high-voltage hackathon.
The 2014 Hackathon winners were LuxLoop (VHX Prize in Film, TV & VR), Harlequin (Most Creative), CUE (Most Disruptive) and Tomorrow Is Another Day (Best Overall Hack). A common thread among the winning hacks was how technology was used to promote human interaction or create analogue output. LuxLoop and Harlequin both used human motion to affect digital output. CUE, one of the finalists in the Pitch phase of the competition, designed a modular theatrical system consisting of wearable audiovisual hardware and a smartphone app to sequence, control and play user-programmed sound and light effects to enhance public theater. Tomorrow Is Another Day touted the idea “Turn your nothing into something,” as their project used a person’s daily “swipes” on touch-screen devices to transform daily online activities into abstract ink drawings.
