Valkyriesky Game Awesomeness

by z3n on Jan.28, 2009, under lol

So, today i was looking around IRC and found out people talking about this new shooter style MMO which looks pretty nice:

Apart from that, it’s a korean game, meaning that you can’t play it unless you’re actually korean. To signup you need a korean social security number , KSSN.

So i thought that it would be hard to get one, specially when i’m not korean and i don’t want to pay for a KSSN.

Because people are stupid they post their KSSN on the internets, and i could figure out one that works, i guess anytime soon the owner of my KSSN will be executed, but hey, i can play my MMO! :)

So here we go:

Problem:

Getting a KSSN to signup on a korean site and play the most awesome game.

Solution:

google for korean security number

google for translating the signup page

so cool.

Multiple Users on Windows XP by RDC or whatever

by z3n on Jan.20, 2009, under Tips & Hints

Issue:

How to have unlimited users at logged in same time on windows xp machine

Solution:

Replace your windows xp termsrv.dll with a windows 2003 enterprise’s and use the .reg file.

I added a rar on this post with sp1, sp2 and sp3 versions of the termsrv.dll, depending on your windows xp sp version you should use one or the other. It’s also strongly recommended that you do this on security mode.

Also note that only replacing the file will not make windows working with endless users, you need to manually change the user limit directive on the terminal services configuration.

Patch Download: termsrv_patch.rar

Note to Self

Logging on by RDC while the remote machine is burning a dvd might fuck up the dvd burning, even if the RDC user don’t have administrative priviledges.

IE6 PNG Fix Note

by z3n on Jan.19, 2009, under Notes

The popular “filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader” png fix for IE6 will avoid inner complex divs from working right, specially, links will not work. I havent found any fix for this yet, i don’t think that there’s one actually.

IE PNG Workaround Trick

by z3n on Jan.13, 2009, under Coding, Tips & Hints

We all know ie sucks a lot, but when it comes to transparent png it’s another level of suckness.

I’m designing a site with those little shadow borders, like 4px in height, the usual ie6< fix:

filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='image.png', sizingMethod='scale');

apparently work, but if you look closely, for small height divs it don’t work right.

it assumes that the minimum height is the same height of the font on that div, so how stupid is this?

a work around would be:

.your_happy_class { font-size:1px; }

an interesting fact is that IE don’t support the line-height feature right, so if you were thinking in use this, you thought wrong! hahahah

Using RDC with localhost

by z3n on Jan.03, 2009, under Tips & Hints

Problem: Connecting a RDC to localhost will loopback and windows will say you can’t do this, because it’s ugly.

Solution: use 127.0.0.2 instead of localhost or 127.0.0.1; This will work on windows xp and older. Another solution is do a different port workaround on mstsc service configuration.

The Most Useless Thing

by z3n on Jan.03, 2009, under Tips & Hints

I had to reinstall windows on my machine , among with all the other shitty programs and plugins i had to reinstall java and then, after a few weeks of uptime i found this:

jqs.exe

(oh yeah thanks to this stupid skin you can’t see the whole image so open it on another window and have fun)

according to some random spammy, also useless, site jqs.exe is a service that speeds up the java classes loading time, however, as you can see it just keep reading lots of data and using lots of cpu, almost 25 minutes on a quad box for 12 days. you can stop and remove this service from automatically startup on services. there’s also the java update schedule thing which also useless. why a speed up thing would read so much data i guess? maybe we’re all being scammed by java.

java is so lame.

happy new ears.
