Deals on big TVs before Super Bowl are less super this year – USATODAY.com – StumbleUpon. Fun interactive chart that shows the size of tvs purchased and the year of purchase. I have always thought it was silly to have such a large TV. Not because of the environmental cost, but because the larger the TV the harder it is to disengage from it. At some point TV size becomes a black hole in which people don’t want to disengage. I would always like to strain a little, so that I remember that playing video games or watching documentaries isn’t the only thing I can do in life.

Reset PS3 Video Setting – Blank Screen – How to switch from HDMI to Composite – Composite to HDMI | Portfolio of Purazar Bhadha. I helped a friend with this problem tonight. Tricky, tricky!

  • Make sure the system is off.
  • Hold down the Power Button for 5-6 seconds – until you hear the second beep.
  • That’s it, your video settings are reset and you should be able to choose your input and configure it from there.

Hack your monitor and 3D glasses, ensure ultimate privacy — Engadget

 

 

Hack your monitor and 3D glasses, ensure ultimate privacy — Engadget. This doesn’t seem like a good idea to me. We already know that many people have headaches with 3D theater glasses. Plus the fact that you can’t collaborate with this setup. Loose your glasses and you are out of luck too. No, this seems to cause more issues than it solves. If someone needs that much privacy, then you need to stick them in an office and not a cube.

IronKey S200 (Review) | Skatter Tech

IronKey S200 (Review) | Skatter Tech. If you deal with sensitive data this seems like a perfect tool to protect it. Seems to me that this is just the thing for attorneys, doctors or anyone who has a need by law to protect sensitive data. Wish I could afford to buy one.

How to upgrade your PS3 hard disk – Tech Made Easy. This is a nice step-by-step guide. My friend has a newer PS3 so it’s not an issue for her, but it is still nice to know. I wonder how common it is that people do this kind of upgrade? Seems to me that it is a good opportunity to put another OS on it as well.

ARogan: PS3 Hard Drive Upgrade and Yellow Dog Linux. Interesting that they chose YDL. I tried it on a PowerPC mac many years ago and it worked but it wasn’t very useable. I wonder how many PS3 owners are using other operating systems on it?
