  • P&P Lava Lamp nav for your WP Blog

    After two days of having intense jolts given to my head, I finally got the lava lamp navigation working! The orignal idea is from G. Marwaha’ Blog and Cory’s Place. By compiling the two articles, I have a clean way to implement it in probably any wordpress theme. I struggled at this one… but where…

  • Simple Steganography

    Wanna hide that information and private things you don’t want your buddies to see? Here is what is called simple steganography. Steganography is the master of black arts. Nobody can ever suspect that there is a simple, easy-to-find drawer in one of your pictures. This works with .png files as I didn’t try it with…

  • St. Mary’s High School, Mt. Abu

    I have spent almost five years at this school. It was just like a second home to me. With facilities like a swimming pool, basketball courts, football grounds, a multimedia, etc., we not only grew up to be pure men but also with a range of hobbies that we do. There are several competitions that…

  • Cold War Cools Down

    At the end of the exams, we all say to ourselves Come what may… The incident at Banglore took us by a complete surprise and then the Geography exam was post-ponded later, leading to an increase in tension and also causing problems in travelling. We finaly had to travel by bus, which ofcourse was very, very…

  • FaunOS Shadow

    It’s a distribution based totally on Arch Linux… specialized for USB Portable installs and can also be used as primary OS has over 600 packages pre-installed (I know… it reminds you of Fedora and me too!). So that’s to say that it comes with definitely all the packages you would ever want along with several…

  • noatime System Boost

    Is your system slow? Do you have to wait 6.2 seconds to start Firefox and other heavy applications? Well, what you need is the “noatime” filesystem mount option! What exactly happens when system files are read? They are written too! The system writes access times to the files causing unnecessary IO traffic between you and…

  • Gentoo on a USB Pendrive

    Installing Gentoo Linux on a USB Drive is very easy… But it’s consequences are even greater! In fact, it is the same with any OS installed on solid-state drives. When any circumstances occur, favoring the unpleasant direct reboot of your machine, the inodes get screwed big time, or sometimes, not. That all depends on luck.…

  • wininit.exe

    How many of you use Windows? Well, it’s a bad……very bad idea to use it. I was using it lately just to find out that the system had a bunch of trojans! The user had no clue of it. Process: “wininit.exe”. If you use Windows Vista, see if you have that app running. It’s a…

  • Merry Christmas

    “I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them…
