Why aren’t tattoos made out of eInk? Then you wouldn’t have to pick any one design. You could just download any design you wanted. So tattoo parlours would then become just a place where you go to get your skin impregnated with eInk and perhaps download new designs.

After successfully porting M.A.M.E. to the Sony PlayStation 2 I just had to try and port my generic Atari VCS 2600 emulator. The results are good. I’ve mapped the video display on to a cube that can be rotated around as you play. With VSync turned off the emulator runs at well over 300 frames… Click this link to continue reading the rest of “Atari 2600 VCS Emulator for SONY PlayStation 2.”

As I’ve just started working on PlayStation 2 hardware and I have access to a DTL-T10000 development station (the big black monolith) I wanted to find out just how fast the main CPU, an Hitachi clone of a MIPS processor, really was.I took the source code to M.A.M.E. and xMAME and with a little tweaking… Click this link to read the remainder of this article

An idea I have been pondering recently is using very large data-sets as a means to compression. Two parties want to exchange large amounts of data over a very limited amount of bandwidth, they can’t agree up front what data will be exchanged in the future, but they can agree for now to both receiving… Continue reading the remainder of “Very Large Data Sets for Compression.”

You know the first thing I’m going to buy when I have enough money? A driver. It’s not that I dislike driving, I just do not want to have to drive if I don’t have to. I want a chauffer, not so that I can be self-important or because I have so many places I… Continue reading the rest of this article

The proposal is to use solar bodies, such as large planets, to bounce radio signals off of, as a means of high capacity, high latency data storage. The digital data is converted in to a radio signal and transmitted from an Earth-based station at another planetary body, e.g. Neptune, which is around four hours away… Click to continue reading the rest of this article

If an orbiting space station is built with extended arms that have a diameter of approximately 1 A.U. and then rotated at slow velocity the objects at the arms extremities will rotate faster than objects at the hub. The structure doesn’t need to be 1 A.U. (about 93,000,000 miles) but it’s a good size, it… Continue reading the rest of the post

In a moment of boredom I was thinking about mass and gravity and pondered the possibility that time is a function of mass. i.e. time cannot exist without mass. Gravity is a function of mass, so why not time. I guess I should go and research this and I am sure someone has already thought… Thirsting to get the rest of “Time as a function of mass?” Click the link!
