Addicted to Electronic Circuit Projects
During high school i was always fascinated in electronic circuits. I was amazed when we created a home made amplifier and guitar effects.
I am also amazed to my neighbor’s sound system he made from he’s college school, i think it was IETI. I always wanted to create those things and really like making things with my own hands.
Add picture here hehe:
Cisco (CCNA) Studies
Just recently, Beck and I enrolled at Mapua Institute of Technology for Cisco 1. Our friends and one of my student at TUP also enrolled in the same class.
For me it was fun and exciting studying again in different school. Seeing many students and professors at MIT makes me feel like I am a college student again but its pain in the ass waking up early during Saturdays haha.
Beck and I discuss this studying thing and was planning to complete the rest of the modules needed and take the CCNA exam.
Cut Down on Book Hoarding
If you find yourself with more books than you have time to read, it may be time to cut down your collection. Here are a few strategies for crafting a more manageable library.
How-to compendium wikiHow compiles suggestions for stemming the tide of new-book acquisition, such as setting up a purchase ratio.
Make a rule that you will read X number of books you currently own before buying another one. Set a “read-to-purchase ratio”. This solution works well because it lets you control your book purchasing habits without requiring that you wait several years until you’ve read the entire existing selection. It also encourages you to read more, knowing that you can reward yourself with a new book soon enough, and not feel guilty about it. Choosing a ratio that’ll work for you involves finding that sweet spot between how much time you have to read, how quickly you read, and how many shelves you’ve still got to get through.
Hit the link below for a host of library trimming suggestions. Just don’t chuck your books in the trash—you can always donate them to a library or charity, trade for books you want, or give them away and track their travels. Photo by striatic.
VirtualBox 2.1 Now Available
All platforms: Free and open source virtualization software VirtualBox gets a “major upgrade” to version 2.1 which is now available for download.
Besides a gaggle of fixes, the changelog details new features:
- Support for hardware virtualization (VT-x and AMD-V) on Mac OS X hosts
- Support for 64-bit guests on 32-bit host operating systems (experimental; see user manual, chapter 1.6, 64-bit guests, page 16)
- Added support for Intel Nehalem virtualization enhancements (EPT and VPID; see user manual, chapter 1.2, Software vs. hardware virtualization (VT-x and AMD-V), page 10))
- Experimental 3D acceleration via OpenGL (see user manual, chapter 4.8, Hardware 3D acceleration (OpenGL), page 66)
- Experimental LsiLogic and BusLogic SCSI controllers (see user manual, chapter 5.1, Hard disk controllers: IDE, SATA (AHCI), SCSI, page 70)
- Full VMDK/VHD support including snapshots (see user manual, chapter 5.2, Disk image files (VDI, VMDK, VHD), page 72)
- New NAT engine with significantly better performance, reliability and ICMP echo (ping) support (bugs #1046, #2438, #2223, #1247)
- New Host Interface Networking implementations for Windows and Linux hosts with easier setup (replaces TUN/TAP on Linux and manual bridging on Windows)
We’ve already shown you how to run Windows apps seamlessly inside Linux with VirtualBox; what OS combinations are you using it with? VirtualBox is a free download for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
