After Joomla 2.5 being released (on January the 24th, 2012 - see article) I looked forward to update this site to the new release. It was stuck at 1.7, and I just liked to test and have a look at the new version. I though in a few days I had the site online using the new code, but I was terribly wrong. I jumped right into the plugin and extensions updates, not mentioning I modified the source code in some point to correct some small bug. So, after a first compulsive update of the code

It's some months I stopped seeing the list of my installed apps in Android Market. All apps are still listed in the web page, but the Market app just display that my apps will appear there as soon as I'll install some. I already installed many, and nothing there!

I recently  updated my hardware at the office, and i switched from Win7 32bit to Win7 64bit. Almost everything worked fine in the new environment, other than a small/big problem with the curl library in my PHP/Apache installation. The configuration was fine - I was pretty sure I followed all the necessary steps to make it works: enable it in php.ini by removing the leading semicolon in "; php_curl.dll", copying libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll in windows/system32 directory (or somewhere else

This is a recipe my mom ported to Italy from her birthplace - Ethiopia. It's a meat based spicy dish (and my favorite one), using a spice mix called berberè. 1 Kg of meat 1 big onion (chopped in small pieces) 2 hg of butter 2 cans of peeled tomatoes 4 spoons of berberè Melt the butter and the add the onion, making it brown a little. Then add the berberè and mix it all togheter. After it is completely amalgamated, add the meat, mixing, then the tomatoes (keep mixing!). A spoon of olive oil, then

Yesterday I was reading PC World news, and I stumbled across this article: Apple to Samsung: Don't Make Thin or Rectangular Tablets or Smartphones by Melania Pinola (read the article here) I read it, and at first I though it was kind of a joke directed to Apple, until I realized it was true. I read it twice, 'coz I wasn't really sure about it, then I googled around to check the Apple "experts" declaration. Section 2-40 and 2-41 list "suggestions" from Apple to Samsung about how they should

In the last days I was in need to connect to the company network to do "some regulations" (... like Garrus ;) ), and my OpenVPN connection was not working. I tried from my HD2 and I had no problems, so I did my job from there (complaining about having the smaller screen), repromising to myself that as soon as possible I'll had to fix it. Today was time to do, but it was not so easy as I though. The hardware is a Galaxy Tab 7 (GT-P1000), with a custom rom based on Cyanogen 7.1 (kernel 2.6.35.7,

Today, after reading a while in the past days, I finally decided to flash on my Galaxy Tab 7 (P1000) a Cyanogen Mod 7 ROM. I decided for the new ROM to have a similar version as in my HD2 (Typhoon Cyanogen Mod 7), that comes already rooted and highly customizable and (vary important) without all the Samsung Junk installed!

The answers is: depends. Well, rooting your phone means getting root level privileges on your android phone. Root is THE user on your droid system, the one who can change system setting, and possibly make your phone stop working ;)   If you are a "standard" user, you don't really need root level privileges on you phone. All the applications you need (Facebook, Twitter, messaging, and so on) will be available to install, and you'll not have to care too much about permissions, other than relating

I finally got a Galaxy Tab 7" and start playing with it. It's a nice tab, small enough to be handled using one hand, and big enough to easily browse web pages or access servers over RDP. But... Yes, there's a "but". After two days of use, I changed my mind about 7" or 10 ". The size matter, and the size is related to the use you'll do of your device. For business and traveling, I think the 7" is more suitable. Small enough to be carried around easily, and the weight doesn't matter too much

Joooid app has been updated. Testing the update right now, and everything seems to work fine. I read the comments and ratings before updating... It was curios to see one star, five stars, and almost nothing in the middle.
