Docking your Projector

Feb 21 2010 Published by gediminas under misc

How would you mount your projector? Driling some holes in the walls? Buying some ugly docking stations and again driling the walls or living room ceiling? I came to simple solution by playing with the regular tripod and two monopods:

1. stable.
2. portable.
3. ajustable.
4. durable & resistant even to the golder retriever tail movements :)

p.s. In my family there’s no place for TV. And we keep this status for about 3 years.

conky – that’s what I search for!

Instead of eureka I would say CONKY!
I have search for sys monitor tool for ubuntu.
Very simple, very stable with low load on CPU (~0.5%) and lots of configuration possibilities. There’s a Conky markup language for your configuration, but also you can write your monitors with python or awk.
Check is out at: http://conky.sourceforge.net/

“<...>Conky is a free, light-weight system monitor for X, that displays any information on your desktop. Conky is licensed under the GPL and runs on Linux and BSD.”

And some examples from the net to be clear what can be configured with this tool:

Assembly’09

Aug 22 2009 Published by gediminas under misc

Before a week (aug6 ‘09) there was some buzz at Helsinki, Finland called ASSEMBLY.
Our national team called “Nesnausk” did some presentations about developing graphics.

“Developing graphics Tech for nono-AAA games” by Aras Pranckevičius

Asm’09 seminar: developing gfx tech for small games from Unity3D on Vimeo.

iPhone: learning the ways of GPU from the Driver Code by Relandas Zioma

Asm’09 seminar: learning the ways of GPU from the driver code from Unity3D on Vimeo.

The presentations are easy digestible even if you’re not a 3D person ;)
Good job – Nesnausk!
