HDMI input to Laptop
by Eric Mugo 08 Sep '12

08 Sep '12

Hi, Ive got a Canon Legria HF r16 (camcorder) that has the following outputs. 1. HDMI out 2. Component out 3. AV out NB: Unfortunately the Camcorder has no Firewire output. I would like to use it to stream online preferably with ustream.com. However i'm having a challenge getting laptop that has HDMI input. Majority have HDMI output only. Component and AV out is more geared towards TV/ home theartre setups i.e. the end of teh cable has the red, white and yellow connectors. My objective is to use a more powerful external camcorder to record my event, hence the streaming website will use the external camcorder as it source and upload the live video link. Any advice will be appreciated. NB: Alternatively, where can i borrow/hire a camcorder with firewire capabilty for a day? Regards, Eric M. Any ideas.

Orange 3G & NAT
by Odhiambo Washington 08 Sep '12

Is there a good reason why Orange Telecom (what is the name?) is doing NAT for 3G users or maybe I am just being silly? I am looking at the status of my router - I use a dongle on a D-Link DIR-825 - and my WAN IP is 10.53.26.48. However, whatismyip.com tells me that my IP address is 212.49.88.108. Does this mean some MNOs don't have a large enough IP space to assign public IPs to subscribers? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.

Samsung TV vs Sony Internet TV ?

> @William, > > You may also know that Samsung makes most of the component for the iPad. > But that doesn't mean the Samsung Galaxy is better than the iPad. > > It is not about who makes the best LED TFTs' but the best television. Hmm, that an odd statement. You aware 90% of that TV is LED? > A LED TFT is now a commodity anyone from Samsung, LG and Foxconn can make. A lot go into buying a product so you have a point. That said, what sell apple stuff is software and packaging, every other hard work is done by others. That doesn't apply to TV. You just have a brand and electronics. As for LED being a commodity, I am going to disagree. They have most of the patents, economy of scale and best quality. This being a high capital industry, that's not going to change soon and should be a little scarcely. Why do you think apple is stuck with them despite the strained relationship? That shouldnt happen with a commodity. I will concede to being wrong if apple manage to avoid them completely in the next three years William >

Samsung TV vs Sony Internet TV ? And any Google TV soon ?
by TheBigBoss 29 Aug '12

29 Aug '12

Hi, I want to buy an Internet TV... Last year, I had a look at the Sony TV, but I wasn't really convinced... then I heard about the Samsung TV but I haven't tried it... then heard about the Google TV (which is not available yet) and after doing some searches I found out you can even purchase a buddy box that sits between TV and decoder. Now, big question, should I go for the Samsung TV or wait for the Google TV or buy the Google Buddy Box? Please share your experience. Thanks

*Real life:* A questionnaire is grouped into several sections (e.g. personal details, contacts, education, work experience etc), each section then has multiple questions. *Current implementation:* I have 3 tables; questionnaires (columns: id, title, ...), sections (id, questionnaire_id, ...) and questions (id, section_id, ...). The columns questionnaire_id and section_id are indexed, and all "id" columns are primary keys, auto increment. *The need:* I need to get all questions that belong to a specific questionnaire. Lets assume the id of this questionnaire is 1. *Method 1:* 1. Run the query "SELECT id FROM sections WHERE questionnaire_id=1" 2. Do some PHP code to retrieve the ids and convert them into CSV format, e.g. 1, 2, 3 3. Run the query "SELECT id, title, ... FROM questions WHERE section_id IN (1,2,3)" *Method 2:* 1. Run the query "SELECT id, title, ... FROM questions WHERE section_id IN (SELECT id FROM sections WHERE questionnaire_id=1)" *Question:* Which is the better method in terms of speed and scalability?

3G Firewall Woes - MNOs
by Odhiambo Washington 28 Aug '12

28 Aug '12

I understand that it is a Worldwide Standard that all IPs assigned to 3G connections are FIREWALLED. FIREWALLED to an extent that inasmuch as UserA and UserB both are on 3G with MNO1 they cannot access any services hosted by the other. This is the case with Safaricom. It also must be the case with Orange. It must also be the case with Airtel. It must also be the case with YU. No? I have a setup like this: 3G dongle < --- ROUTER ----< LAN <--- DVR The router is a TP-Link and the dongle is from Orange (MF192). Router IP (LAN) = 192.168.1.1 Router IP (WAN) = Dynamic (I have DDNS configured to help with name resolution) DVR IP (LAN) = 192.168.1.10 I have punched holes in the Router firewall to redirect/forward ports 8000 and 9000 to the DVR for purposes of accessing it using web and an android app. However, port scans to the WAN IP shows all ports are blocked! It would appear that the only way to get this to work would be to get Cable Broadband! Suppose there is no CB in one's area then technically you are damned. So it looks like as a rule, no one is allowed to run public services on 3G or does anyone know a provider who can give special considerations? Safaricom is NOT one such provider. I wonder if the others can. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.

Access Kenya Core Network Problems

If we were to instead change/modify our current website, instead of starting a new one, is there a different charge from the above? 4. Lastly, once the site is re-created, how much would you charge for updates? Do you have a fixed rate per update? Or by Changes/modifications per month? Can you share your rate card with us?

1. Re: A cup of Urine a day (Brian Munyao Longwe
by Kinpro Computers-All IT soutions 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

Take it this way: -You have couples of bowls full of soup ,meat , groundnuts, and other food stuff. -You have spent so much of careful sorting out all unwanted contents, dead flies, carbonized pieces,groundnuts dried up when attacked by fungi, dead proteins, and few chemicals etc. with some microbs(bacteria,virus,protozoan) too. -The imagine you have them sorted.Is it technically safe to eat/drink any of the impurities you have collected? urine has all unwanted materials that the body organs(,Liver,kidney,Lymphatic systems) could collect from the body systems,+microbes(fungi, viruses, bacterias, etc) which have infected bladder, and the wall in the urinary ducts.they are all high concentration as they are the product of long and tiresome extraction.All these were extracted from small traces yet the body spends a great deal of its organs to collect.I think you can imagine putting this concentration back to the body through the mouth.Some microbs behave differently when in the urinary track than in the mouth and the whole digestive system. This is a very dangerous practice.the damage(infections,poisons, etc) outweigh the benefits(dissolved calcium/phosphorus in case of diseases or reduced exercises,salt or amino acid if any useful is there, etc). Arabs legends of drinking camel milk diluted with urine as a healthy drink doesn't sound well scientifically,.people who drunk the combination and became fat are taken as an example.But this can be explain as this: -Combination might have been dominated by Milk. -Milk is rich in contents that outweigh the poisonous contents in urine. -Milk have a power to neutralize lots of poison -Milk reduces absorption rate and hence the useless chemical wouldnt have time to be absorbed before got ejected as faeces. The most disturbing part in the story with Arabs is, they were racist who couldn't believe the result of their mistreatment.The story of starved foreigners,who were tasked to take care of camel.they were given given milk mixed with "camel Urine",but after sometime they were fat,but they killed all camel before escaping.This show that Arab geve the guys the combination just remove equality, and this was well noticed by these guys.As Arabs admired to be fat,they couldnt believe the result that the guys became fatter than their expectations,but they couldnt figure out that milk had undergone all the magic and not the urine+they couldn't figure out that the guys might had a another way of getting extra fat+protein, and possibly more relaxed than the greed arabs. This has been public recently by religious people to make religions more appealing to the scientific world.

Python vs Django
by Nd'wex Common 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

Well yes I know the subject is rather funny and yes, python is a programming language while django is a framework based on python, however, django is like a whole new language... if you have come from planet java, grasping python is like a walk in the park, try walking into django and the ground gets shaky if not upside-down, its like starting all over again. thats my take, whats yours?

Portable Radios - 'Walkie TALKIE'
by Kinpro Computers-All IT soutions 17 Aug '12

17 Aug '12

Do you mean ..."can penetrate walls thicker than the average wall."? From what I know, most of the electromagnetic "light" wave within the safe range don`t penetrate lots obstacles. Transmition to a point behind an/a object/structure that is not in a line of sight, is done by certain principals like bypassing as through satellite, reflection, or relaying , using waves with large wave length for smaller obstacles.But if the buildings have less windows /tight without glasses/glasses in wrong angle with reference to wave direction.Chances are you have to rethink of doing internal retransmission. A good thing is most walk talks aren't directional but radial.Waves are transmitted in all directions and chances are some wave might bounce on obstacles to find indirect ways in or out.If site has a complex structure you better task the supplier to do a survey, plan, supply and implement.

Short codes scums 5503: Be ware
by Henry Kamabi 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

to young Mobile Zone Wireless: The Orangino Scam and how to Unsubscribe Instantly!<http://www.domainsafrica.com/2011/11/mobile-zone-wireless-orangino-scam-and…> http://www.domainsafrica.com/2011/11/mobile-zone-wireless-orangino-scam-and… To Unsubscribe, send the word "STOP" to 5503 I'm always skilled at smelling scams and scums from hundred miles away but how this scam eluded me is still a puzzle to me. First I would like to apologize to everyone for not playing my informal role as the "public watchdog" properly and alerting Kenyan users of the Mobile Zone Wireless scam. Before I continue, here is how to UNSUBSCRIBE from the service: Send an SMS with the word "STOP" to *5503* . These scums will charge you a final Ksh.30 for unsubscribing! The fraudulent company offered some captivating ads asking users to answer questions such as "Who is the real Obama?" blah blah. When you click the link, it takes you to a page where you are asked to answer the question and then enter the phone your phone number to be entered into a draw to "win" cool mobile phones or an iPadetc. No terms of Service are even displayed during the entire process but you will begin knowing the Terms of service soon enough when Ksh.30 begins to disappear from your phone mysteriously, everyday. The parent company, Orangino is based in Stockolm, Sweden and owned by one Ulla Osterman but it seems they have some minions in Kenya to do their bidding. You can tell the scammer, Ulla Osterman, what you think by emailing them at this email ulla(a)businesscompetence.com . Subscribing for this service is quite easy but unsubscribing is another matter altogether.Once you are in, there's no easy way out as there is no readily accessible info on how to unsubscribe. If you are a busy guy like me, you might be stuck with this service for a month before you can find time to get through to your mobile phone company's customer service(In my case, Safaricom). It's like signing a deal with the devil! The moment you subscribe, you automatically accept their obscure Terms of Service(TOS) that they will be deducting Ksh.30 from your account anytime they send useless ringtones etc to download, and they can do this as frequently as everyday. They ask you to click the link http://m.ke.orangino.com. That means every day you will be losing sh.30 to an unsolicited service that you have not asked for. They use strong arm tactics to fleece consumers and how Safaricom allows something like this within their network beats logic. I guess for mobile companies, every revenue stream is acceptable, there are no ethical considerations on protecting consumers from fraud. So now thousands or even hundreds of thousands of consumers are stuck with Orangino, losing millions of shillings every day to some obscure company based in Stockholm!

Prepaid Water Meters with Keypad
by Zack Githinji 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Dear All, We are looking for a digital water meter that can be programmed to allow for customers to pay for water consumption up front by feeding in units (similar to charging a mobile phone with air time credits) and the meter stops supplying water once the units are all consumed or reading ‘0’. Once a payment is made, a code is generated from the DB which is keyed into the meter and the meter should be able to verify the code from the remote DB. Any leads will be appreciated. -- Regards, Zack K.

ANY IPHONE EXPERT IN HERE.?
by Ti Dave 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Hello intelligent bastards, I' need some intelligent guidance in reviving my iphone 3gs. (and by mine i mean a friends phone which i just efed up. jana) . It had a problem with asking for password when tryin to call a number that is not on the phone book. So I (thinkin that am freakin good at this) decided to restore the phone using itunes which ended up upgrading the iphone to iOS 5.1.1. Results DISASTER. • Phone was asking for activation and could not activate • removal of sim is not detected..phone keeps sayin searching.. & could not proceed from there. So what did i do? I jail broke the phone.. with i0S 5.0.1 with redsnow which failed with the error.. ms60000 giving up.... tried with 4.1 still same error. So i search for solution n I am told to use *ifaith *to downgrade it. which I successfully do ...n phone downgrades to iSO 4.1. Now after being abit exited thinking am successful.. phone would not go past "slide to make emergency calls" with a recoverymode screen showing that cable to itunes thingy.. So I search solutions which said to jailbreak now. so I did and the process above which was refusing .. with error ms600000 now worked successfully. Problem- after completion phone goes back to where it started.. 'slide to emergency call" Now my smartass has run out of ideas and am sick of google.. cn sm1 please come to the rescue... -- Direct your attention to the best... http://www.bigbang.co.ke/
