What I Hate About Computers #1: THE CAPS LOCK KEY

146 views
Computers, Linux, Old Blog

That key is just on the way. Whenever you want to use one of its neighbors (Tab, Shift, A, Q), there’s a good chance you’re gonna press that stupid key instead.

Lately I found out that I was not along, and others like me started a war against it.

So I joined them:

The other key I hate is the windows key ^_^

Life is much better now (^_^)

For further reading:

[Edit:] If you care about your keyboard and you are using Linux (Under X) you can disable the caps key by creating a .xmodmap file in your home directory with the following:

remove Lock = Caps_Lock

and insert this line xmodmap ~/.xmodmap into your ~/.bash_profile

This Tip was from this page: http://steve.yegge.googlepages.com/effective-emacs

Awesome Image Resizing

When Mitsubishi doesn’t make Lancers, which I will never have the opportunity to drive except on my little brother’s console:


Or doesn’t make futuristic trucks:

They develop hallucinating technologies, such as smart resizing:


The erase option at the end of the video is the one that impressed me the most.
So, it wasn’t a bluff in Prison Break, when a specialist from “The Company” simply erased secret agent Paul Kellerman from their videos when they decided to cut him off.I wonder when other science fiction cinema tricks will become a reality. Like when, knowing there is not enough pixels to do it, they zoom into someone’s eye to get his iris prints.

NB: My example

Howto properly remove a host key from the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file

98 views
Linux, Old Blog

Whenever I want to do that, it’s always the same scenario:

  1. open the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file w/ an editor
  2. go to the line containing the host key
  3. remove it
  4. save

I just found the proper way to do it:

$ ssh-keygen -R remotehost
/home/kakashi/.ssh/known_hosts updated.
Original contents retained as /home/kakashi/.ssh/known_hosts.old

Jewelry store on my way to work

90 views
General, Old Blog

Whenever I go to work, I walk by this jewelry store, and it always drives me crazy knowing that there are people in this world buying these stuff. Seriously who puts a Porsche in her ears ?

نتكلم العربية” (We speak Arabic), hmm… , that explains things a little bit. But not everyone who speaks Arabic is an Emir or runs an Oil company (^_^). I get sometimes this thinking of getting inside and find out how well they speak Arabic, but the two mountains of muscles guarding the door are too scary (=_=;)
