  • VLC 1.1.0 adds Windows and Linux GPU decoding

    VLC 1.1.0 adds Windows and Linux GPU decoding

    Posted on June 22, 2010 | No Comments
    Have you launched VLC today? If so then you'll already know that it has been updated to version 1.1.0. The biggest feature in this version is the addition of GPU decoding for Windows (Vista and 7 only) and Linux users. That is, you can use that fancy GPU of yours to help decode that 1080p MKV you've got there, leaving your CPU with enough room to breathe, or whatever. Fair warning: if you're on Windows, hope you've got an nVidia GPU…

    The New Browser Wars: Will Ubuntu drop Firefox for Google Chrome?

    Posted on May 14, 2010 | No Comments

  • Nexus One rooted already?

    Nexus One rooted already?

    Posted on December 30, 2009 | No Comments
    No, you still can't have one (not yet, at least), but we've received a number of tips directing us Modaco forums, where admin Paul claims to have rooted Google's not-so-mysterious Nexus One. We can't validate the "superboot" file works, but the adjacent picture has popped up from another forum member as apparent anecdotal confirmation. Instructions for Windows, Linux, and OS X users can be found along with the necessary materials. What do you say, hacker community, any chance we can get multitouch loaded into the device before it ever becomes official to the world at large?

    Adobe Releases Flash Player 10.1 And AIR 2.0 – Both Include Multi-touch Support

    Posted on November 17, 2009 | No Comments
    A mere week after Adobe Systems reported that it would be shedding nearly 700 employees or 9% of its total worldwide workforce, the company is releasing two highly anticipated new products that have been in the works for a while: Flash Player 10.1 and AIR 2.0. Both of the products are being released with a 'beta' label at the same time for all 3 major operating systems (Windows, Mac and Linux) and x86-based netbooks, and are available now via Adobe Labs. People who were still hoping for a beta release of the new Flash Player for mobile will be somewhat disappointed by the fact that they'll have to exercise even more patience.
