The new Canon 7D specs are really nice,
… Side by side with the Canon 5D Canon these two cameras will kill Nikon if it wont answer really soon.
Nikon Competitors? No for now.
The D300s add so less to the D300 that is not worth.
Thinking that Canon 7D and Nikon D300s have the same price i’ll buy again a Nikon only if my Nikon lenses are really expensive and i don’t want to sell them (my dear Tokina 11-16 is going probably) !
The only doubt is about that pixel density on the sensor, comparing to 12Mpixels Cameras (Nikon models) and the 21 MPixels of the Canon 5DMK2 which is also full size.
Price? About 1400 Euros (1700 Dollars), about half a Canon 5DMk2.
My new Camera? Probably…

Windows 7 will be another failure, due to the fact that is too much like Windows Vista, talking about the look and the functions.
It’s faster and stabler than Vista yes, but Windows XP users won’t pass to it unless forced (or due to the fact that the will buy a new pc).
I hope that Microsoft didn’t kill itself with this new Operative System…
The real question is : “how to gain again the trust of the customers after the Vista failure and with Mac OS and Linux gaining many and many users?”
I’ve no answer, but to me it seems that Microsoft is inside a swamp and every move bring it to the bottom…
When customizing the installation, avoid to select acpi (normal and non-intel) cause in my (about 12 tries) crash the installer avoiding to finish it: result is that i was unable in any way to enable Quartz Extreme Acceleration (QE). Not selecting those features let the installation finish successfully.
Note: use voodoo ps2 and trackball module and voodoo audio to have all working (instead of using applehda and apple ps2)
If you own an iPhone with firmware 3.01 and you develop with XCode you have to run this command from terminal to let the XCode compiler to compile for your version:
ln -s /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/3.0\ //continues next line \(7A341\) /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/3.0.1
In questo numero si inizia una nuova serie di articoli sulla programmazione iPhone; questa volta spiegherò come creare una TODO list, una lista delle cose da fare, nel secondo e terzo articolo (usciranno purtroppo con un mese di pausa dovuta ad un problema di spazi sulla rivista) parlerò di gestione della memoria, di retain, retainCount, release, dealloc, Autorelease Pool etc: in pratica tutto quello che bisogna sapere su questo aspetto, che si rivela la causa di quasi tutti i bug quando si inizia a programmare su questso dispositivo.
From terminal type: /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
Note: best to disable Spotlight searching into other drives (other Mac installations), delete monitored folders in the Privacy Tab.
The 3.0 firmware added many features, for my taste I’m missing some of them.
Without Cydia and other hacks il’d like to have:
1) video controls
2) photo controls (image size and quality, and, why not, rule of third grid)
3) options to choose if mail should or not download the emails attachments and or set a limit the max size to avoid download
4) mms image resize options to limit their size
5) simple theme selection to change the boring blue of the interface to the color I like (when developing is allowed why not allow to set in the options for all the components?)
6) 5 or 6 icons on the quick access bar (bottom bar) instead of 4.
7) a simple task manager to see the available RAM and to force a memory to be clear to avoid device shutdown to get the max free ram
8) quick wifi enabler/disabler button
9) possibility to cancel an app download
10) ability to know how many satellites are seen by the device
11) ability to disable a particular location service
12) battery life…longer….
In questo numero il secondo articolo sulla programmazione iPhone e due pagine dedicate alle novità introdotte con il nuovo firmware 3.0; c’è una precisazione riguardo il componente per inviare le email, il quale è stato spostato da Apple , dopo la redazione di questo articolo, da semplice figlio di UIViewController (come descritto nell’articolo) a figlio di UINavigationController, comunque resta sempre in tale catena di ereditarietà.
A really hard certification exam, i had to study about 3400 pages (no, i’m not wrong, about 3K pages).
CUDA, ecco la tecnologia, creata da Nvidia, di cui mi stavo interessando per il nuovo articolo.
Questa tecnologia permette di spostare tutti i calcoli onerosi nella scheda video, lasciando scarico il processore.
Update: dopo l’uscita dell’articolo ho notificato Nvidia
a riguardo, hanno risposto e hanno richiesto la copertina della rivista per utilizzarla nelle presentazioni in giro per l’Europa: bella soddisfazione.
Questo mese ho realizzato una semplice lavagna virtuale su cui disegnare muovendo il wiimote, utilizzando un proiettore potreste disegnare virtualmente sul muro della vostra camera.
Altri articoli in arrivo.
I managed, after about an hour of work on it, to run the wiidesktopvr (developed by Johnny Chung Lee) on my Vista 64bit.
NOTE: i’m planning to release an updated version that uses 1.8beta library which supports wiimotion plus 🙂
BLUESOLEIL USERS: update to the latest version to avoid problems running the application!!!
Causes:
FIXED LINK::download the package i created (about 2MB);
:: follow the instruction below:

and add the following line
Now, when you build/rebuild the project it will be x86 and will works. But for me this wasn’t enough.
If you get a wii not connected or unable to find it in HID list (to close these messages if your mouse doesn’t work, alt+F4 twice and you will go back to the project) : resync your wiimote, and check using wiimotelib utility (taken from the runtime library package) if the wiimote transmit.
If you try to open WiiDesktopVR.cs form you will get the following error:
C# express 2008 needs the visual class on top of other classes.
The solution is to cut and paste the top class that isn’t the gui class under the gui class, keeping the gui class on top; in this case, having only two classes into the file we need to put at bottom of the file :
class Point2D
{
public float x = 0.0f;
public float y = 0.0f;
public void set(float x, float y)
{
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
}
}
needs to be moved to (reach the end of the file):
}
}
}
}//End of file
put the point2D class here:
}
}
}
}//End of file
so it will be:
}
}
}
class Point2D
{
public float x = 0.0f;
public float y = 0.0f;
public void set(float x, float y)
{
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
}
}
}
Save e reopen the wiidesktopvr.cs, now you’ll see without errors:
…ieri era bella come non me la ricordavo da tempo. Le dissi stupito “guarda quante stelle” mentre sporgevo la testa verso il finestrino.
Era talmente felice che solo starle accanto mi faceva sentire meglio. Trasmetteva una tale gioia di vivere che bastava per tutti e due. C’era tanta di quella “vita” nell’aria che avremmo potuto creare una stella solo stringendoci forte. In quei momenti ho una tale paura di perdere tutto questo che mi sento perduto in questa vita così transitoria…e allora cerco di mangiare meglio, guidare più piano, stare più attento al mondo che mi circonda, evitando rischi inutili perchè se mai succedesse qualcosa a me lei proverebbe la peggiore delle angosce…
Era prima di me e sarà dopo di me…sarà la madre dei miei figli, la sorella che non ho mai avuto, la madre che perderò, l’alba che mi desterà con le sue nuvole disegnate con gli acquerelli.
