Current computer set up until I can afford an IMac (aka if 200000 years) but I like it! It’s nice to finally have a clean desk to work at instead of hunching over my bed!

Microsoft is considering foldable devices with liquid-filled hinges

Microsoft is considering foldable devices with liquid-filled hinges

Microsoft has recently filed patent filing from the company details a clamshell device concept whose hinge is filled with a liquid or gas to reduce strain on a foldable display and prevent debris from getting inside both sore points for foldables as of late. You could close this shut without worrying quite so much about wear and tear.

Notably, the patent comes from Microsoft’s technology…

[Mobile] 三星Galaxy Note再進化？新專利揭示「雙螢幕」、「雙感應懸停」、「攝影筆」…等重點功能！

圖：三星的雙螢幕系統、攝影筆功能新專，將可能成為新一代Galaxy Note的殺手級應用。

  在前不久的TechNews科技新報新聞中提到，美國使用者對於智慧型手機的滿意度，三星的Galaxy Note 4已經超越了蘋果的iPhone系列，除了主打軟硬體的強大功能，在Galaxy Note 4上獨樹一格的專屬功能，更是與其他競品有所區隔的重要原因。但市場的反應是現實的，三星雖然是首個成功推出大螢幕手機的廠商，但在蘋果也跟進推出螢幕5.5吋的iPhone 6 Plus之後，確實讓有大螢幕需求的果粉們沒有理由跳槽，過去因為螢幕大小而轉移到Android平台的使用者，也有回流iPhone陣營的跡象。

How to play DOS games on a Nintendo DS

You'll need:

Nintendo DS

Acekard 2

MicroSD card (at least 512MB; bigger gives more storage)

USB MicroSD card reader

Process:

Use this Compatibility Wiki to see which of your games will work with DSx86.

Download the AKAIO software here. Click "Download Selected Version" on the right and save the RAR file to your PC.

Open the RAR file and extract everything into the root directory of your blank MicroSD card, e.g: F:\. This lets you use the AKAIO operating system on your Acekard.

Put the MicroSD card into the Acekard.

Put the Acekard into your DS.

Turn on the DS's power.

You’ll either go directly to the AKAIO menu or to the DS's Choice menu. Acekard should show up in the DS slot.

Tap Acekard to enter the AKAIO menu.

Turn off the DS's power.

Remove the Acekard from your DS.

Remove the MicroSD card from the Acekard.

Put the MicroSD card in your computer’s card reader.

On the DSx86 site, click “Downloads” in the left column.

Click the link for DSx86022.nds (or the latest non-beta version if you prefer) and save the file to the root directory of your MicroSD card, e.g: F:\.

In Windows Explorer, create the following folders on the MicroSD card:

F:\data\dsx86\4dos

F:\DOSgames

Back on the DSx86 site, click “Downloads” in the left column and scroll down to the 4DOS section. Find the 4DOS shell; it’s the link named “4dos750b130.exe”. Do NOT just click it! Do NOT open it. Instead, right-click it and choose "Open with WinRAR" (or your unzipping program). You do not want to install 4DOS on your PC! You want to save it to your PC so you can install it on the MicroSD card.

After 4dos750b130.exe is open in your unzip program, extract its files to the F:\data\dsx86\4dos folder you made earlier. This installs the 4DOS operating system on your card so that DSx86 can use it.

Make folders inside F:\DOSgames for each game you want to install, e.g.:

F:\DOSgames\LSL1

F:\DOSgames\LSL2

F:\DOSgames\KQ1

Copy the game disks into those folders.

Put the MicroSD card back into the Acekard.

Put the Acekard into your DS.

Turn on the DS's power.

In the AKAIO menu, tap-drag scroll, then tap to select using the D-Pad until you’re at the the DSx86022 icon. Press the A button.

Using good ol’ DOS commands, open the \DOSgames folder, the game's folder, and then type the command needed to start the game. For example, to play Leisure Suit Larry 1, type "cd DOSgames", "cd LSL1", then type "LSL1".

Enjoy some classic gaming fun!

Twitter and TV

Let's be honest Twitter has changed TV watching forever. People comment on it now to me as one of the most amazing things to watch when they first join Twitter. It has created the 'duel screen' viewer that so many of us have become.

It's part of my job to be the person that provides that duel screen element at times, but I also love being part of the duel screen world with either my phone in hand or my tablet on my knee watching a TV programme and seeing what others have to say. I prefer to be a duel screen viewer during programmes that include opinion and debate, rather than say, Doctor Who on a Saturday night. Question Time, Have I Got News For You and even Britain's Got Talent are perfect creations for the duel screen world.

The thing is, with on demand TV supposedly becoming more popular, has Twitter started to pull people back in the other direction so that they can engage with that programme online at the time that in airs? And on top of that are TV show makers changing the way that they make programmes to fit into the duel screen world? I'm pretty certain the later is true.
