Do you know what is Torrent? Of course you do cause maybe you are downloading TV Shows or movies right now. One of most well known torrent tracker and collector site has been raided by swidish polices. The allegation was breach of copy-right law, alternatively assisting breach of copy-right law. The police officers were allowed access to the racks where the TPB servers and other servers are hosted. All servers in the racks were clearly marked as to which sites run on each. The police took down all servers in the racks, including the non-commercial site Piratbyrån, the mission of which is to defend the rights of TPB via public debate. According to police officers simultaneously questioning the president of Rix|Port80, the purpose of the search warrant is to take down TPB in order to secure evidence of the allegations mentioned above. 

Well I'm quite sure they will back within a Week or so. Also you should know the TPB can receive compensation from the Swedish state in case that the upcoming legal processes show that TPB is indeed legal.

Also a Note for you all, Internet is too big to close a site like TPB. Want to see an Example how big the Internet is? Cool

Combat Attire Vibrating – Looks a Bit Creepy

leave a comment

This is some sort of vibrating haptic combat vest that will alert you to the state of your comrades in battle and might even be able to sense incoming enemies. It looks a bit creepy though when you think about the feeling. What came to my mind… Maybe soon these will be implemented in the combat video games so you can imagine you'll get alerts and realistic shocked feelings on your skin on attacks. But the next morning you wake up with pain in the whole body. Hmm..

DefenseTech.org describes it as:

“If the unit commander has the information about which team members are walking, running, standing, prone, kneeling, and/or firing weapons, he will be able to make well informed critical decisions based on a significantly better understanding of the situation at any given time. Even with the lack of physiological monitoring, these data could indicate potential causalities (e.g., prone, no movement, not firing). Additionally, direction of enemy, ammunition depletion, and severity of enemy engagements could be ascertained.”

hey were also thinking about attaching something to a soldier’s tongue which is even grosser. A fascinating work-around for information overload.

GMail introduces Reply by Chat. What it is actually? Okay, when you have an e-mail from one of your contact who is online on GTalk or Gmail then you will see the "Reply By Chat to….. " option available near to your contacts message. So what you can do is, just click the button and the chat popup will pop up so that you can reply to your contact instantly.

Well this makes GMail more integrated with GTalk. Few things you need to know that you must be in the Gmail view: standard with chat and not standard without chat.  Look for the "Standard With Chat" option at the bottom of your Inbox and if it's not selected then just select it to enable this feature. You can read more at Google Help Center
