Back from Japan & how to create a volume adjuster

As you may have noticed, I have not written anything on this blog for almost a month. This is not very untypical of new blogs: they appear, write a lot for a short while, fall dormant and die just about when people stop caring about it. I’m happy to tell you this is not the case here!

OT: Got myself a CD32!

cd32This may be a surprise for some of you, but I have not owned a classic Amiga since the early 2000. For me, Amiga has never been about the past but about the future. So during the years between 1997 to 1999 I expanded my A1200 as much as I could afford before giving up on that (partly due to the price, partly because of lack of progress in the Amiga world).

Election, Amiga Forum and switching DVD device.

Today is election day in Sweden. I’m watching the events unfold and it looks like we will have a change of government: from an alliance of conservatives, pseudo-liberals, Christians and farmers party turned Randian capitalists turned back to farmers party to an alliance of social democrats, socialists and the green party. The feminists have grown but doesn’t seem to make it all the way into government. And the “not racist but …” party Sweden democrats will apparently become the third biggest party in Sweden.

Youtube & Youtube Center

Youtube is the worlds most popular free video sharing service. And it’s owned by Google who tries to make it profitable by showing commercials. This was until lately dependent on Flash technology, and it still is to a big degree even though it’s migrating to HTML 5. This is good news for Amiga platsforms, which lack Flash. However, because there are a lot of programs out there that circumvent Flash and shows the movies directly (without the commercial) Google looses money. So Youtube keep change it’s code in order to make these programs useless or at least less useful.
