Moped progress update

riga-mopedas

Well well well… it’s been so long since I wrote my last progress update. But never the less, here’s another one. A lot of things have changed, but I don’t feel like writing lots of text today so I’ll keep this one short with pictures in the end :)

Photobucket album downloader v0.7

pb-ripper

The time has come to update this little script. Since Photobucket switched from Beta design to what they use now, this script has stopped working. I am sorry for the delay, I would have posted this sooner but I too have a life ;)
Anyway, the new Photobucket design is ugly, I probably don’t need to tell you that, and they had been holding off the slideshow feature for quite some time. Recently it was implemented and I hoped my script would work without much modifications… but alas, they just had to redesign it all.
They used weird Javascript to load 12 images at a time, so needless to say it was not the way to go about doing this… I had to find another way.

LithDict4Droid logo

Šiandien išleistas nauja versija – 1.3.1. Greitu metu turėtu atsirasti Google Play sistemoje visiems atsinaujinti.
Ši kartą labai daug naujovių nepridėjau, tačiau yra keletas kuriuos verta paminėti. Pagrindinis – integravimas į e-knygų skaitymo programas, visas kurios palaiko ColorDict žodyną, tai pasiūlė padaryti vienas iš vartotojų. Bandžiau su 3 populiariausiomis programėlėmis – Moon+Reader, CoolReader ir FBReader.

LithDict4Droid gerokai atnaujintas

LithDict4Droid logo

Vakar tik pabaigiau tvarkyti 1.3.0 versiją kuri jau turėtų būti Google Play sistemoje. Gerokai atnaujinta dėl to kad įdėta keletas naujų funkcijų ir svarbiausia aš manau kad pagaliau radau ir ištaisiau tą vienintelę problemą dėl nepasileidimo ant kai kurių telefonų, dėl kurios gavau itin daug skundų ir vos ne grasinimų :D

Iki šiol negalėjau suprasti kodėl taip vykdavo nes neturėjau tinkamų telefonų bandymams. Pasirodo kad klaida buvo labai paprasta ir niekur oficialiuose Android API dokumentuose nepaminėta, tad bandymų ir skaitimų keliu radau priežastį.

Lietuviškas TTS telefonuose

lt-tts

Senokai kažką berašiau į savo blog’ą, tad šiandien nusprendžiau parašyt apie tokį dalyką kaip lietuvišką TTS (Text-to-Speech) telefonuose. Įvairiausių variantų yra prigaminta, bet va Lietuviško ir nėra niekur – egzistuoja tik kiek žinau ant Windows sistemų kažkokia keista sintezė, tačiau ji veikia.

Egzistuoja tokia svetainė garsiai.lt, aišku iki tobulumo dar reik padirbėt, o kūrėjai arba visiškai pamiršo arba prarado norą dirbti, bet gi kaip bebūtu tai yra geriau nei nieko (turbūt?).

garsiai.lt anksčiau kaip suprantu buvo text-talk.com kur rašoma kad telefonas gali kalbėti, bet paspaudus mygtuką išbandyti, rašo kad tokia paslauga kol kas neteikiama… įdomu ar ji kada nors buvo teikiama?

[Android] Programmer’s day

prog-day-logo

I might be a little too early with this, BUT! I felt like publishing it now…
This is a clock that counts time down to 256th day of the year (Programmer’s day) in a cool looking style :D
Basically it is a modified version of my previous app “HackerCountdown“. I figured that stupid Mayan doomsday is now passed and there is no need for this anymore, so I converted it into something more useful (more or less…).

Everything is still the same, only things that changed was the date and text scrolling there is now read from your phone’s system logs, so the first version can still be downloaded from my projects folder and the new version can be grabbed on Google Play: ProgrammersDay.apk

Context-menu utility to compress JPEG files

ImageMagick

I was in a need of such a thing and was determined to produce my own version, but then I found out that the C++ image manipulation lib “ImageMagick” has tools for that already. So I took the utility convert.exe and made a batch script to do what I need it to do.

EvilFortune

evil-fortune

Greetings all.
This is my latest C++ project… made it purely for learning purposes, but it is kinda cool, I guess.

It is a windows port of Unix program Fortune.
The original implementation used files. My version uses SQLite with all the original quotes and fortunes, plus most posts from Evilzone irc quote thread :P

Target opener – program to add “Find target” to context menu

target-opener

My newest project in C++. I just started with C++ so code might not be godlike, so bear with me.
Mainly to make my life easier, because I usually use the “Find target” button on shortcuts and to save me some clicking I made this.
Solutions for this problem already exist, but they all need registering with regsrv32 this and running in CMD that. Fuck ‘em. My solution is simple and it works.

It adds a context menu entry via the registry for LNK file types (shortcuts). So when you right-click a shortcut, “Find target” item appears.
It works on WinXP and Win7. But for Win7 you have to do something about that UAC – most likely just disable that shit, it’s useless anyway.
