Hacker Public Radio Ep0173: Configuring Pulse Audio Klaatu and notJlindsay discuss Pulse Audio and how to configure it so it doesn't bork your system. One thing Klaatu fails to mention is that before you try any of this, you should just run whatever software updates may be available for your OS. Pulse configuration and compatability seems to be improving rapidly over time, so many thing may \"fix themselves\" by simply making sure your distro is up to date.

Make your own backyard biodiesel. It's easy to make a small batch that will work in any diesel engine. You won't need any special equipment--an old juice bottle will serve as the \"reactor\" vessel--and on such a small scale, you can quickly refine your technique and perform further experiments.

Hacker Public Radio Ep0163: Circuit Bending HPR Circuit Bending

Circuit bending is the creative, DIY (Do It Yourself) short-circuiting of electronic devices such as low voltage, battery-powered guitar effects, children's toys and small digital synthesizers to create new musical instruments and sound generators. Emphasizing spontaneity and randomness, the techniques of circuit bending have been commonly associated with noise music, though many more conventional contemporary musicians and musical groups have been known to experiment with \"bent\" instruments. Circuit benders remove the rear panel and connect circuits on a trial and error basis. More experienced benders use a soldering iron and add other components such as potentiometers, resistors or capacitors, which creates an even broader range of sounds.

Hacker Public Radio Ep0162: Webkit
Jza, Andymeows, and riddebox have a improvised discussion about an article in the
July issue of Linux Journal, called \"Using Webkit In Your Desktop Application.\" pg 54 - 58.
Linux Journal = www.linuxjournal.com
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebKit
What is webkit?
It has a LGPL license
Webkit is an open source application framework that provides
a foundation upon which to build a web browser.
It was originally
derived from the konqueror browser's khtml software library by Apple Inc. for use in Safari.
You can use Designer to create a nice gui and use the classes for QtWebKit inside it.
Which means that you can drag and drop forms and create the gui real fast.
The best part of QtWebKit is that you can pull stuff from the internet for you applications.
In the article they created an app that will download the pdf files from past issues for you. With a nice search feature for their website.
Examples of applications using Webkit:
Adium
Colloquy
MSN Messenger
Mac OS X's Dashboard
The IPhone uses it as well

Hacker Public Radio Ep0156: FRS/GMRS Walkie Talkie Review Deepgeek reviews FRS/GMRS walkie-talkies from Radio Shack
(He also waxes nostalgic about CB radio.)
Each week, Make: television will showcase the best projects from Makers who submit their videos, a segment of the show we call Maker Channel.
This segment features the videos made by Makers themselves - a showcase of the “best of the best” of YouTube-style videos. We think this is a great way to see the people behind the projects and we feel it’s important to give a little control of the show back to the viewer. To do this, we need your help!
If you’ve built something inspired, useful, imaginative, ingenious, or just plain clever, share your genius with the world. Produce a one to three minute long video that shows the best thing that you’ve made and send it to us. If it’s really good, we’ll use it on Maker Channel and you’ll revel in glory and admiration, plus you’ll receive a gift certificate to the Maker Shed and a subscription to Make: magazine.
