Static IP improves service drastically

Posted: 12 Aug 2013 02:26 AM PDT

From past few days my service was just pathetic. i am having a 2mbps unlimited plan on which download speed was 2mbps but the upload speed was around 400kbps. There were issues of packet drop and high pings. So a guy from tikona suggested me that i should take the static IP service and there will be huge change in your service. And guess what he was correct.

 

Benifits

1. No login page ever.

2. Connect as many PC with your Wifi router.

3. download speed of 3.5 mbps

4. upload speed of 2mbps

5. super low pings.

6. no packet drop.

 

Drawbacks

1. you will have to shell out Rs1500 a year.

iBall launches Hybrid Dual Pendrive starting from Rs. 599 onwards

Posted: 12 Aug 2013 01:13 AM PDT

Interesting.

iBall-Hybrid-dual-pendrive.jpg

This iBall device is light weight at 10 grams and is priced at Rs. 599 for 8GB and 799 for 16GB version. If you are planning to buy a pendrive and probably might want to use it with micro USB supported devices then this is a good option or you can anyway buy any other pendrive plus an OTG cable (approx Rs. 150 to 200).

Frequent Disconnection / ADSL blinking Issue on MTNL Broadband

Posted: 11 Aug 2013 11:54 PM PDT

Hi,

I am a user of 849NU plan of MTNL Triband service since August based out of Navi Mumbai.

All of August, i was very happy to have a lovely connection and good speeds, with a pretty good tariff.
But now since the past 15 days I am suffering from very intermittent net connection.
Although I am connected to the internet, sometimes the webpages take ages to open, and never open, while at other times it opens instantly. Also downloading has the same pattern, sometimes I get very good speeds of upto 200 Kbps, while other times there is no download. Although all download sites show good Triband Speed, but it is the intermittent connection that is the problem.
This problem has crept up in the last 15 odd days, and I have tried everything but no change has been noticed.

Has anyone else faced a similar problem, and if yes, whats the work around. The people at MTNL classify this as a slow connection problem, but that is exactly not the issue, as I do get good speeds intermittently.

Somebody please help me.

1.6 MBPS speed on 2 MBPS plan

Is this normal? According to the technician it certainly is but is it the same for everyone else using the 2 MBPS (512 KBPS post FUP) Tata Docomo Broadband plan?

Right to Information Act set to become even more toothless

Posted: 11 Aug 2013 11:32 PM PDT

http://www.readability.com/articles/xvq7owpy

 

 

 

A bill to amend Right to Information (RTI) Act in order to keep political parties out of the ambit of the transparency law is likely to be introduced in Lok Sabha on Monday.

The bill will be introduced in the Lower House by Minister of State in Prime Minister's Office (PMO) V Narayanasamy.

The Union Cabinet had on August 1 cleared a proposal to amend the RTI Act to give immunity to political parties.

The proposed amendment would mean that educational institution and hospitals, amongst several others who acquire land at subsidised rates and funding less than 51% may go out of the purview of the RTI Act.

 

Norway PM Jens Stoltenberg drives a taxi for a day

Posted: 11 Aug 2013 11:17 PM PDT

 

Looks more like a re-election strategy though. 

 

 

 

Norwegian PM Jens Stoltenberg spent an afternoon working incognito as a taxi driver in Oslo, he has revealed.

Mr Stoltenberg said he had wanted to hear from real Norwegian voters and that taxis were one of the few places where people shared their true views.

He wore sunglasses and an Oslo taxi driver's uniform for the shift in June, only revealing his identity once he was recognised by his passengers.
His exchanges with his passengers were captured on a hidden camera.

The footage - made in collaboration with an advertising company - has been posted on the prime minister's Facebook page and made into a film which will be used as part of his campaign for re-election in September.

"It is important for me to hear what people really think," he told Norwegian media.

"And if there is one place people really say what they think about most things, it's in the taxi."

The Newsroom (U.S. TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Newsroom is an American drama television series created by Aaron Sorkin that premiered on HBO on June 24, 2012. The series chronicles the behind-the-scenes events at the fictional Atlantis Cable News (ACN) channel. It features an ensemble cast including Jeff Daniels as anchor Will McAvoy, who, together with his staff set out to put on a news show "in the face of corporate and commercial obstacles and their own personal entanglements." Other cast members include Emily Mortimer, John Gallagher, Jr., Alison Pill, Dev Patel, Olivia Munn, Thomas Sadoski, and Sam Waterston.


It is available for free viewing on YouTube but not open to Indian visitors.

Strike back

Posted: 11 Aug 2013 09:42 PM PDT

Synopsis:
Strike Back: Project Dawn, as it is known in the United Kingdom (or just Strike Back in the United States) is a ten-part British-American action serial television series, and the follow up series of Strike Back. However the only cast member to return from the original series was Richard Armitage in his cameo appearance. It was a co-production between British broadcaster, BSkyB (for Sky1) and American premium cable broadcaster, HBO (for Cinemax). The series follows the actions of Section 20, a secret branch of the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6).

My opinion:
This show is better than it needs to be. A season has 10 episodes, with a mission per 2 episodes taking place in different locations around the world. There will be a overarching story connecting the 10 episodes. It's like watching 5 decent action movies shot within a TV budget. They still use the locations very well. The action is well choreographed. Being a cinemax (skinimax) show, you can sense the nudity around the corner but it's not really gratuitous like in Starz shows. The first UK season only has 6 episodes but I didn't watch that season. It was revamped in the second season called Strike Back: Project Dawn. I only started watching the show from the second season. The first 2 episodes in Strike Back: Project Dawn takes place in India.

The 2-hour premiere of the third season called Strike Back: Vengeance premiered last Friday.

So, this app is slightly different. You share photos. You set the timer. The photo is deleted after that time from everywhere (your phone, your friend's phone and the company's server).

It also alerts you if the other person took a screenshot of the photo during that time period.

Windows 8.1 (Windows Blue) Updates

Posted: 11 Aug 2013 08:28 PM PDT

What to Expect (And What We Want) From Windows Blue
 

 

More tile sizes: If Windows Phone can support three tile sizes (small, medium and large), then Windows 8 should absolutely support them, too. The tiles are much larger on Windows 8, so smaller sizes would be easy to tap with a fat finger. It will also make for a more personalized Start Screen, which the Windows 8 Modern UI is all about.

Updated Mail: The Windows 8 Mail app needs some extra power. Simplicity is great, but some basic additions would help it be a more useful tool. Microsoft should add support for POP3 accounts and incorporate features available in Outlook.com like drag and drop. A report from ZDNet suggests that this might come prior to the Windows Blue update.

Ability to use multiple browsers in Modern UI: This is a small request, but it addresses what can become a major annoyance in Windows 8 if you ever use more than one browser. Right now, even if a browser is available as a Windows 8 app, it will only work in the Modern UI environment if it is set as your default browser. If it's not your default browser, then it will open in the desktop. That goes for the built-in IE10 browser and other offerings like Google Chrome.

Boot to desktop: This is one of the most common Windows 8 demands, especially for business users. It should definitely be an option for Windows 8 Pro users, who do most of their work in the desktop environment. It's thoughtful and will make a large number of users happy without much work. But it should absolutely not be an option for Windows RT, where the opposite should be true.

Make it possible to manage everything in Modern UI: Alternatively, if you want to stay in the Modern UI 100 percent of the time, Microsoft should let you stay there 100 percent of the time. Especially since the Modern UI is the future of Windows. Microsoft should have the Task Manager, Windows Explorer and Control Panel available as Modern UI apps. You should be able to change your screen resolution and manage your files without being forced to the desktop.

Unique Identification Authority of India (Aadhaar)

Posted: 11 Aug 2013 07:40 PM PDT

the govts plans to have a biometric national id cards for everyone by 2010.In usa the real id act is facing fierce resistance as 20 states have signed legislation opposition this as well in UK as groups like defyid and no2id.THis national id card makes india a police state,mass surveillance society and blurs the difference btw nazi germany and india.
the supreme court has interpreted that we have the right to privacy which the national id card violates.Why isnt anyone doing to stop this.I contacted times of india ,cnn ibn,ndtv but got no reply?.


we already have voter id card,passport,driver license,ration card,pan card(similar to social security card in us.).EVen is usa the ss card is not to be used as a id card.why do we need a chip card?the only thing that i can think is abut control and monitoring us.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multipurpose_National_Identity_Card_(India)
once everyone has this card the govt can track your every move and switch your card if you resist or dissent.

those who give up liberty for security neither deserve liberty nor security-Benjamin Franklin.

Why is ibibo sending me mailers for Myntra?

Posted: 11 Aug 2013 01:23 PM PDT

So, I got this legit looking Myntra mailer from offers@99mailbox.com. 

  http://tinyurl.com/lxyej2f  

I do not remember subscribing to any mailers from this domain so I decided to check the links. 

 

They were all pointing to tinyurl.com which well confirmed that it was not a legit mailer from Myntra. 

 

Clicked the link to find out that all the links were in fact pointing to myntra with some sort of affiliate type linking connecting it to ibibo: 

  utm_source=aff-ibibo&utm_medium=cpa  

Now, these labels basically tells me that a click per action campaign is being run by ibibo for myntra. Insane.
