    Flash plugin Switcher extension for Firefox

    [photopress:preview1.gif,thumb,alignright]Alessandro Crugnola aka Sephiroth just released great new Firefox extension for Flash developers. The extension comes with all currently available Flash player plugins (from the v2 to the most recent 9,0,16) and allows you to easily switch from one plugin to another, or also to remove the currently installed plugin (eg. for testing the express install feature).

  • How to improve battery on a laptop running XP?

    If somebody has any useful tips, please - do tell! :) Since I got my new Intel T2400 CPU powered laptop, I can't get more than 2 hours of battery work time with it. The laptop brand is Compal (yes yes...I know) and it doesn't come with auto screen dim power settings in BIOS.

I couldn't find 3rd party implementation of this aether.

  • some notes on php design

    Today, I have read on metapundit.net some thoughts on how to improve php coding. Don't see the real point in this, except the faster coding. Readability and maintenance is degraded slightly.

    Filesystem corruption with PHP

    Writing to a file is easy with PHP. But what will happen if 2 processes try to write to a file at once? Exactly, your data might easily become corrupted and useless. You don't want that to happen, of course. That's why you need to implement file locking. flock() is your friend. For writing to a file, you want to obtain an exclusive lock on the file. There must never be concurrent writes to a file, after all. Here's an example.
