Mr Scruff – Essential Mix – 07/02/09

by Kyle on Mar.24, 2009, under General

Hey guys.

I know this release is around a month old (just over) – but I’ve only recently discovered it. Quite frankly; it’s the best essential mix I’ve heard in a long time.

Wide range of musical genres here – expect anything and everything from funk, disco, soul, hip hop, dubstep and house all blended together seamlessly.

Hacking the IT Crowd Season 3 DVD

by Kyle on Mar.15, 2009, under General

Hey guys!

I’ve gotten on board this time after having missed out on the Season 2 competition. I will post my progress as and when I make it! 

Lets get started.

1) A reference to http://www.itcrowd.com/clue is made in the ‘Credits’ video. This website asks you for your e-mail address, and upon entering redirects to a YouTube page. The channel was ‘unavailable’ at the time of writing this post.

ITCrowd.com/clue 

2) During the ‘cuke can’ game – a website is revealled; “http://cuke.me“. This redirects to the Reynholm Industries access denied page we’ve seen / decyphered before.

http:// 

Cuke.me 

3) Also during the ‘cuke can’ game – a password is given: “TXgwQuMq2v0″. Upon Googling this password; a YouTube video was found (the video ID matches the password). The video can be found here. The video is a Fremantle Media title card. As to where this password can be used is unknown as of now..

Password 

4) The ‘geek/1337′ subtitles are based upon the standard subtitles but with letters replaced. My guess is that steganography is used and that by compiling a list of all the capital letters a message can be found. More on that soon – I’m supposed to be working on a university assignment so this is low priority at the moment ;) . Will have to get ripping the subtitles and OCR’ing the text – use a filter to display capitals only and see what comes up.

This is just a basic knowledge of what I managed to interpret after 20 mins of general poking around the disc and it’s contents. 

Hopefully I shall find more soon and keep you posted!

If you haven’t already – go ahead and grab your copy of the IT Crowd Season 3 over at Play. If you don’t have any of the preceding seasons, I highly recommend the 1-3 boxset. At £17.99 – it’s a steal. 

Don’t forget, if you engage in piracy – be prepared to face the consequences.

Update: The ITCrowd.com/clue now links to the official YouTube page for The IT Crowd. The quest continues..

The day Shafqat was “ill”.

by Kyle on Mar.10, 2009, under General

Shafqat

Today, at 9:15am – a lecture for ‘Operating Systems’ was meant to take place. Shafqat’s teaching method was to be observed by Torbjorn – ultimately deciding upon whether he was going to be replaced or kept on (not a chance in hell). We all turned up as per usual on a Tuesday; to be told that Shafqat is “ill”.

As a result of this; we all found ourselves in the common room watching The Jeremy Kyle Show. Good times. I’ll have to bring a VGA -> HDMI connector so we can watch it on the big screen. Maybe Tippins can make his own aerial, who knows..

Common room 2

Oh and by the way, thanks to popular demand by Gareth Tippins, I’ll stick a PayPal ‘donate’ button on here shortly ;)

Later!

This Is It.

by Kyle on Mar.05, 2009, under General

Update: Video removed due to a copyright claim by ‘BBC World Service’. Could have at least notified me about it; rather than just disable it and say nothing. Thanks again YouTube…
