Classical Rickrolling

Posted by hank, Tue Sep 09 03:06:00 UTC 2008

Sometimes, I want to hear classical music, but it helps if I can relate to the music being played and really get into it (see: John Williams). Walt Ribeiro recently has awoken me to some awesome arrangements like Pork and Beans and The RickRoll Song that he has produced. You should buy them here if you like them, as I did. Here are some nice samples:

Actually, truth be told, I bought Pork and Beans, and Walt was cool enough to notice and send me Never Gonna Give You Up for free! Please spend money on him!

Sad display of humanity

Posted by hank, Sat Jun 07 14:51:00 UTC 2008

It’s pretty sick when an old man is hit by a driver and they don’t even have the common courtesy to stop.

Originally from here, but they took it down for some reason. It’s disturbing, but I see no reason to stop society from seeing itself.

Ubuntu on the Dell M1530

Posted by hank, Thu Mar 20 03:00:00 UTC 2008

I got my new laptop today!! It’s awesome - I installed Ubuntu very easily on it, and Beryl using a second monitor on the HDMI port even works without much tweaking (just enabling TwinView with the restricted nVidia driver):

I made an Ubuntu Wiki Page on the matter. All the information about what works and doesn’t is on there.

Flash Video Player for Mephisto

Posted by hank, Mon Aug 13 02:50:00 UTC 2007

So I made this awesome filter for Mephisto that allows you to easily embed flash videos in your post. May require tweaking if using a non-standard URL root.

It’s as simple as this:


<macro:flash>/assets/2007/8/13/party.flv</macro:flash>

Or, you can make it complicated:


<macro:flash width="640" height="480">/assets/2007/8/13/party.flv</macro:flash>

Which ends up like this:

Installation

Install it from your mephisto directory:


./script/plugin install -x https://modzer0.cs.uaf.edu/repos/hank/code/rails/mephisto/filtered_column_flash_video

Voila! Firebreathing!
