Bridging wlan0 to eth0 (wifi to lan) with a Raspberry Pi

Posted: Friday, 7 November 2014

Edit:

As mentioned by +Gareth Williams, this guide will result in routing the Raspberry Pi's Internet connection, not bridging it.

I've had a Raspberry Pi for a few months now, and although I'm not impressed about its performance, I am however, impressed by its versatility.

Anti-Gamergategate - The 3 important FACTs on Gaming Journalism

Posted: Wednesday, 15 October 2014

IN online terminology, a troll is defined as "One who posts a deliberately provocative message to a newsgroup or message board with the intention of causing maximum disruption and argument".
This definition has stood the testimony of the modernism of the platform of the internet, as the definition of "trolls" extends now to the blogs of "reputable" journalists.
Pandering to a strict demographic always does wonders to an ignorant mindset. The propagation of "clickbait" and other "dark pattern" campaigns draw crucial cues of the declining quality of reputable journalism and the field of news all together.

New site design

Posted: Sunday, 17 August 2014

Scroll down to the comments section to comment!
The web will continue to innovate and inspire new technology to impact on how we view the web and the world.

Familiarity

The current site template is focused on consistency and functionality, with interactive user interface elements given a clear distinction amongst other interfaces. A highlight of this new design consistency focuses on links. The idea of having links look like buttons, because the idea of hypertext being just a "link" is over. Buttons provide the gateway to more interactivity and content, and so why can't links convey the same meaning?

New web standards

HTML5 isn't new. It's been out there for a few years now. However, each second of time passed will see more new features added to HTML5, which makes it unique. This site design seeks to establish the new HTML5 tags with meaning and intent, with the <header>,<section> and <footer> tags reiterating meaning with site structure, and this is visually emphasised with CSS3.
SVG graphics are also featured in this new design. With most of the visual icons in an embedded SVG format. Vector graphics are at the hallmark of 2013-2014 web development, yet, major sites still rely on .jpg, .png and .gif for delivering graphical content. No more blocky graphics here! SVG aliases lines so they look good at any resolution!
Oh, and as of the time of this post, the site is also valid HTML5, but it might not be true from time-to-time (due to updates, e.t.c..) and isn't worthy of mentioning on the site itself.

Content-rich

Being a site that focuses on feature-rich content, the new site design is focused on making content as readable and interactive as possible. Scrolling triggers a mini parallax effect that is both used to indicate the position on the page, but also to increase the level of interactivity that this site has to offer.

One-size fits all, responsiveness

We should have to push you off to mobile-optimized versions of websites when mobile devices can only do so much in 2014. Whether it be a HDTV, 4K TV or a 300DPI "smartphone", the website will scale appropriately and still be readable... This coupled with the SVG graphics detailed above, leads to a crisp and clear browsing experience.
So, what do you think? Is it a little bit too over-the-top? Or is your experience stuttered by lag?

Twokinds Rar/Zip Archive - Prologue to the 10th Anniversary Chapter

Posted: Sunday, 20 July 2014

Following on from MediainFire's archive, below are some download links to Tom Fischbach's classic about a guy and a female tiger.
Addressed are some issues that were found in MediainFire's archive of Twokinds, where the pages that were missing which may left those important minuscule details out have been found and automatically readded.
For closure, this archive contains the chapters from the Prologue, all the way to the 10th Anniversary Chapter (all 779 pages). Chapter 17 and beyond will not be included as it's a long waiting game from this point on (not knowing that the comic existed will put your mind at rest until some ideas are elaborated upon and concluded).
This is a direct archive of the images straight from Tom's keenspot site, so there's no need to worry about any differences between the copy that you are downloading, and the copy that's on his site. Though make sure that you do visit the Keenspot Twokinds site with adblocker turned off.
The archives are uploaded at mega.co.nz, since it's a relatively modern service with insanely fast speeds and no annoying pop-up ads. If the download does not work, try using a different web browser.
