DiS – Darkness is Spreading Version 08.1218

A new version of DiS – Darkness is Spreading Version is out. Version 08.1218

Here’s a picture:

DiS – Darkness is Spreading

dis - darkness is spreading

I coded this puzzle game that I now have hosted on Sourceforge here:
http://dis-game.sourceforge.net

It’s written in PHP and it is based off the game Flood-it. It takes the general principle and changes it some.

The levels are easily made and can be added pretty easily too.

I’d like to make a level editor, but that is defiantly for a later release.

Here is the plan:
-Make it look better
-Add Score
-Add Level Editor

Whitehart – Minimal Firefox Theme, Great

whitehart
Whitehart is a very good theme.

I have been using it for a while and I thought I would let you know.

It’s the type of theme that really simplifies what Firefox shows you. It looks like someone went through the default theme and removed the color and made things a tad smaller.

I recommend it.

Wiki Based Directory of Online Free TV Shows

I really wanted to make a exhaustive list of TV shows that networks like NBC, ABC, CBS, Comedy Central and more have listed for free on their website.

Some of these shows have full catalogs and some have just the current season or clips.

I would love to have people contribute and add to the listing.

I have it hosted here on Zoho. It’s basically an open source version of Google docs plus tons of other features.

Thanks,
Enjoy

Python: Wunderground Todays Weather to Email SMS to Phone

wunderground

I could see somebody setting this as a cron task to send every morning so when you wake up, you get the current weather as a text message. 

I am about to set it up. 

Enjoy

Python – Cell Phone Number Pad Input

Here is the first version of a little python program I made that will translate input from a cellphone text pad or a number pad to text.
UPDATE: VERSION 2
It’s pretty darn simple.

It would go perfect with this:

Netflix Player by Roku Runs Linux

roku netflix linuxThis $100 dollar wonder runs Linux. At least this is why I believe it does. By looking at their agreements we can see:

Certain components of the software included with the Roku Product are subject to separate license
terms, including “free” or “open source” software (“Separately Licensed Code”). Some of the Separately Licensed Code is licensed
under the terms and conditions of the “free” or “open source” license and is not subject to the License above or the Limited
Warranty below. As required by the terms of the relevant Separately Licensed Code licenses, Roku makes the “free” and “open
source” code provided under such licenses, and Roku’s modifications to such code, available on Roku’s website, at no charge. The
following third party software is also included.

Which does not defiantly mean that it runs Linux but:

This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in the OpenSSL Toolkit (http://www.openssl.org/).

Which also does not defiantly mean Linux, but:
With it’s small form factor and the fact that it is sub-$100 and it runs off of flash memory, I believe it does.

If this is the case, then I would love to see how to stream Netflix on a normal Linux/Mac box without having to use IE.

I believe that if they are implementing IE and Windows media formats behind the scenes that they might be infringing on some sort of License agreement with Microsoft. Which sucks.
