Just a heads up that I will be attending and reporting on E3 next week. I will be updating every night of the show which runs the 14th through the 17th with a big postmortem after it is all over. If you want more up to the minute news you can check out my twitter [...]
Favorite Ambient Instrumental Radio Station for Work
by Riyad Kalla on 21. Feb, 2010 in Entertainment, Life & World
I wanted to make this post because as highly distractable person who likes music, I almost always work in deafening silence. As much as I like music, I cannot work with it on because anytime a catchy tune comes on my brain refocuses its attention on the music instead of what I’m suppose to be doing.

by Riyad Kalla on 26. Jan, 2010 in Technology
thesixtyone is an online media streaming/sales site that Marc Chung just sent to me to take a peek at – “What do you think of this webapp?” he asked me. It took me about 15mins to figure out what it was before I could reply; but after I did, my reply was pretty much “Daaaammmn, [...]

What’s Going on with Netflix Streaming Performance?
I noticed about 3 weeks ago my streaming video performance from Netflix has become unbearably slow.

by Riyad Kalla on 13. Dec, 2008 in Technology, Video Games

No price cut this holiday season — instead they actually released a more expensive bundle
Not properly promoting DVD-upscaling capabilities of the PS3
No Netflix (or other 3rd party) streaming movie support
This is all in the wake of Sony’s falling PS3 sales [...]
Stream Your Video Feeds with Palantir
by Ray Gomez on 22. Oct, 2008 in Technology
Snapshot from palantir.santinoli.com:
Over the past couple of weeks I’ve dabbled with the idea to add a webcam to my personal site that monitored a couple of pet furballs. The task was not too straight forward. I ran into many hiccups with alpha software and missing libraries. Most of the software related to [...]
PS3 + Infrant ReadyNAS + Xvid Stream
by Riyad Kalla on 24. Dec, 2007 in Technology, Video Games
It was reported shortly after the last PS3 Firmware 2.10 release that DivX support was added but Xvid support was only added when the media was played off the PS3’s hard drive. Well for you lucky Infrant ReadyNAS folks out there, it looks like the soon-to-be-released RAIDiator 4 relase of the OS for the ReadyNAS [...]

Chris Hunkele just did a kick-ass writeup of how to setup your Vista Media Center machine combined with your XBox 360 to create more or less a utopia of content-streaming fantasy.
Chris also goes into detail about setting up additional utilities to remove commercials from recorded content as well as interesting tips like managing your BlockBuster [...]
