Apollo-NG Mobile Hackbase

Apollo-NG Hackerspacecraft

Apollo-NG is a mobile, self-sustainable, independent and highly-experimental Hackbase, focused on research, development and usage of next-generation open technology while visiting places without a resident, local Hackerspace and offering other Hackers the opportunity to work together on exciting projects and to share fun, food, tools & resources, knowledge, experience and inspiration.

Hacking devices always comes with the risk of breaking them in the process, which makes it often undesirable to hack on something, when you know, that you only have one device you may need for production purposes. Luckily, cosmo had a look at the Apollo-NG Wishlist and donated one more TL-MR3020 for the cause and as a result, it was pretty easy to figure out how to connect an external antenna to the TL-MR3020.

Details about the hack can be found on the Argus Project page

Thank you cosmo :)

Intelligent Turn Signal

While watching some fast cars on a multi-lane street from above today, one observation came up with repetition: Fast movers, that wanted to overtake slow movers (on the right line) almost never used their turn signal (blinker) to indicate their intention to move to the left lane and afterwards to move back to the right lane. Why is that and how could that be helped?

Exciting News: MediaGoblin moves to SQL tomorrow

A7B5BC2V79RH. Helping upstream projects directly seems to be a much more logical choice to put work into, instead of rewriting code to enhance it for oneself only. Today, the development time was invested into the new video.js interface for MediaGoblin, to give it a real “production grade” finish with MediaGoblin visual identity and to make it easier for other hackers in the future, to change the skins to their liking.

For tomorrow, MediaGoblin promises a real treat: The change from MongoDB to SQL.

You will have to wait to find out, if it's just one of April Fools' Day's hoaxes or the real thing :)
