Against SOPA and PIPA

Suppose you’ve been under a rock for the last year or so, you would’ve missed the whole story behind the immanent internet blackout. In a nutshell it will involve ISP’s having to blacklist you’re favorite sites at the whims of hollywood, through DNS redirects. Since all the DNS really does is just translating an IP adress into a domain name automagicly you could just still surf to those domains just by entering their ip adress directly into the adressbar of your browser.

So in order to help y’all here’s a small list of site’s that are on the short list of going dark. But to make life easier someone wrote a handy little plugin for firefox here. Of course us-congress already asked Mozilla to take it down. Which they refused :D but to help here’s the list.

ps. If you got more addresses to add to the list please the drop ‘em in the comments below AND everywhere else you can think of.

Free sample pack

The folks at Soniccouture have decided to offer their very first sample pack for free.  So if your an audio geek like me you prolly wanna head over there right now and get the download started.

Rare herrie

Link tip van iemand gekregen. hailing allzewee vrom Sleeuwijk DFM.nu
Nou ja onder andere uit Sleeuwijk dan.

Van de site: “the first webstation from The Netherlands. Starting 1996 and still ruling with it’s independent noncommercial internet broadcast pioneering.”

search tip

from the I didn’t knew that dept;

Add mdc in front of your google search and you’ll get results from the Mozila Doc’s Centre. Ow, and while you’re at it add -w3schools after it.

tip from W3Fools.com

I wonder what to prepend for sitepoint results tho

CSS Animation

Full on Timeline-animation is finally here with step()

The W3C isn’t know for being quick about implementing new stuff but this is definitely something I’ve been waiting for. As the functionName() suggests this allows for aniStops between your from{} and to{}. The spec even allows for Bezier-easing on those steps making for some really smooth ‘Hello world/jumping balls’ demo’s.

Rotoscopie

Naast ‘A Scanner Darkly‘ (2006) is dit een van de weinige andere films die volledig aan rotoscopie doet.

Tjek ‘A Walking Life’ uit 2001

Eerlijk toegeven, dit is extreem vermoeiend aan de ogen, om het over t onderwerp maar niet te hebben. Maar ik heb t toch zeker 14 en halve minuut vol gehouden so try and beat that.. ;P

In plastic laten zitten…

Je hebt van die lui die hun bankstel in het plastic laten en je hebt deze jongens, die hun keyboards in het plastic laten zitten.

Nou vin ik hun remix van de nieuwe Björk, Crystaline, nie zo best. Het orgineel vin ik beter maar ‘t grote wachten is natuurlijk op een vette remix van Pendulum ofzo.

They found another un-deletable tracking cookie. This time it’s a method that basically tries every know trick in the book. Including ET-Tags (theoretical until now) and localStorage. Continue reading

Site speed

-note to self-

DON’T use text-shadow with 200px blur. Javascript animations don’t like that.

Got me a grade A again with YSlow :D  but found that js minify don’t go well with canvas. Guess I’ll wait for the update…

Developing for mobile

Devving for mobile devices generally revolves around the idea that they have a slow connection to the web and a small screen. The official idea these days is to develop bottom up, so cater for small screens first then load the bigger images as you go up in screen size. Two problems tho. Continue reading

Comics zijn leuk

Zeker als ze een stiekem kleurtje hebben. Waar D.C. comics  een beetje mufjes ruikt, weet auteur Sergei Kalenik een heus debat los te peuteren met SuperPutin.ru

Real life farmville

Ech woar he farmville spele maar dan voor het eggie. Dat kan dus op t myfarm project. Ga ik wel bij zegge dat ‘t van de Britse overheid vandaan komt maar toch, ik vindt t wel een grappig idee.
Maar als we dan toch bezig zijn, aangezien real life rick rollen al gedaan is stel ik real life trololo-en voor.

Shoegaze

Jeez, dat t genre nog bestaat zeg.

Ok wat is shoegaze dan, nou denk aan ‘wall of sound’ producerende bands als The Verve of My Bloody Valentine.

Anyway uit New Orleans presenteren mij u:

Belong – A Walk

o en nu we t toch over een wall of sound hebben tjek ook gelijk maar deez:

Fuck Buttons – Olympians

 

 

!cookies but localStorage

Seems to be a buzzword lately so lets put on some rubber gloves and chime in shall we.

 

function support_test() {
  try {
    return 'localStorage' in window &&
    window['localStorage'] !== null;
  } catch (e) {
    return false;
  }
}

 

Is how you can test for support but since you’re prolly using modernizer anyway you can do this.
