Jailbreak: succes!

Comex heeft blijkbaar de jailbreak code getweaked, want na een hele dag proberen, wachten, nog meer proberen en nog meer wachten, is het tegen twaalven gelukt om mijn 32 GB 3G iPad te jailbreaken via JailbreakMe.com! Bewijs staat hiernaast: waar normaal iPad (of carrier informatie) staat, heb ik mijn iPad nu echt gepersonaliseerd via de Cydia app MakeItMine.

Jailbreak voor iPhone en iPad

Via http://modmyi.com/guides/how-jailbreak-iphone-4-a/ en ipadplanet.nl: Safari-based jailbreak is terug! Op de iPhone (3G in mijn geval) werkt het prima, met mijn iPad heeft ‘ie nog wel moeite – zou te maken hebben met de 3G hardware (wifi heeft naar het schijnt een hoger slagingspercentage), of met de 3.2.1 firmware. Er schijnt aan te worden gewerkt, maar voor het moment gebeurt er ofwel helemaal niets, of reboot de iPad spontaan.

Necessary Evil: Mayday, mayday, going down

Necessary EvilWe left our heroes captured by the V’Sori, with the exception of Sandman who managed to make his way back to Star City. About the same time as Sandman reaches Chaos Krew HQ, Kron, Sparky and Pezl (?) are dumped into separate cells, cuffed in nullifiers and whisked away on a plane. Fortunately for them, Dr. Destructo (who awaits the arrival of Sandman at HQ) decided that they are actually too knowledgeable about the resistance to be left imprisoned, so a rescue attempt is set up – Sandman is being drafted for this duty, and is to receive the help of Hellspawn Barbie and her two chainsaws (of Doom!!) and someone called Thinktank (some vaguely humanoid, green skinned yet oriental looking lizardy being). They fly off into the sunset looking for (and finding) the plane in which the prisoners are being transported. Thinktank manages to find an opening (OK, he rips off part of the fuselage) after which Sandman and Barbie rappel down onto the prison transport, at which point they’re being shot from point blank range (which came as quite a shock, I don’t mind telling you). Luckily both were wearing heavy armor, so not harm was done. In retaliation, Sandman sets Charlene to Area Effect mode and lets rip – resulting in the partial destruction of the aircraft which is going into a crashdive. With no means of escape (Dr. D  having flown the coup) most of our heroes have to suffer the crash landing on some remote tropical beach, but all manage the survive – all but Sparky that is: after being driven to vegetarianism due to massive amounts of fear he splashes into the ocean which mercifully kills him off (the mercy part being that he didn’t have to suffer the life of a vegan for very long). Some other captives were freed ass well, and one of them decides to hang around our merry band – a four armed martial arts specialist called Johnny Four. Sandman uses his vibroknife to cut through the nullifiers. Pezl decided he needs to be around water and dives into the ocean where he finds an underwater passage.

Barbie manages to salvage everyones gear, and Kron manages to find some much needed generator parts, but after that it’s a quick retreat into a nearby cave. Barbie destroys the cave entrance – which turns out to be the only easy egress. The day is saved by Pezl who finds his way into the cave via underwater passages. A quick reconnaissance reveals a larger cave where Pezl fins rebreathers for the rest of the team and they make their way into the large cave. this turns out to be a hidden submarine docking bay guarded by unsuspecting drones. They are easily dealt with at the expense of Pezl dying, but just as the coast appears to be clear the team is startled by the sound of a loud foghorn – signaling the approach of an actual submarine. The surviving crewmembers (Sandman and Kron) along with Johnny Four and Barbie decide to take shelter in a room…

TBC!

Necessary Evil: The One That Got Away

Necessary Evil With our regular GM fresh back from the States, it fell to Alan (Androgeny in previous sessions) to host our most recent foray into the land of supervillainy.

Our quest for generator parts continues this session. After last session’s clusterf*ck / opening Pandora’s box the crew is again united when Sandman joins up in a derelict hotel. It is decided that we try to procure our needed parts from a V’Sori compound near the great bridge. Once there, it falls on Sandman’s shoulders to infiltrate and reconnoiter. Kron manages to hook him up with live-streaming webcam so Sandman can be alerted when he finds the right parts. Verder lezen &raquo

Necessary Evil, 13 March session

Necessary EvilRecap provided by Alex:

After the paranoia that is known as Mad Toymaker Mike’s house of delights, it was time we continued with our original plan: getting parts for the generator. Since the parts that we needed are stashed at a military base going guns a blazing wasn’t really an option. It was time to try something new. The infiltration operation was conceived.
In order infiltrate, we needed a couple things: papers in case we get caught (which is very likely), military uniforms and nice set of wheels. We already had the car of Androgeny. We only lacked the papers and clothes. While Androgeny found some contacts to get the paperwork done it was time for Sparky and Kron to get some new clothes. Time to hit the some army surplus stores.

This is a dead notebook

It has gone to the choir invisible…
Weel, unfortunately my Dell mini9 has developed al little SNAFU, by which I mean it has started refusing to boot. SSD, USB, no matter what, I get the same message everytime: Operating System not found.. From a quick Google-search, it would seem my harddisk is on the fritz, even though it is still being recognised correctly by the BIOS.
Luckily I still have a good month left on the warranty, so Dell’s shipping me a service-box, meaning I’ll be mini-less for the foreseeable future. Ah well, it wasn’t working anyway…

Necessary Not-bad-but-not-quite-evil-either – the Funhouse Edition

Necessary EvilWell, well, well… Another sunday, another session – and it was a doozy! An entire session, in which our Tireless Trio became a Fearsome Foursome again, in which we searched through an entire evil headquarters, and not a single shot fired by Yours Truly. But, it must be said, our DM managed, by virtue of nothing more than an occasional stroke of red felt-tip penmanship, to turn our team in a quivering mess of paranoid player – well, me at least. That this was her plan all along makes it that more loath- / praiseworthy, depending on your viewpoint. Verder lezen &raquo

Synology update - FTP blijft een probleem

Na veel proberen heb ik mijn netwerk zover dat HTTP verkeer door de router correct geforward wordt naar mijn DS-209+. De router is in dit geval een Apple AirPort Extreme 802.11n (Fast Ethernet). Ook forwarding naar een andere machine in mijn netwerk lukt prima. Nu gaat het hier om het forwarden van steeds één enkele poort.

FTP toegang krijg ik niet voor elkaar.

Hieronder kun je zien hoe ik de FTP portrange heb ingesteld – kan iemand mij vertellen of / bevestigen dat dit de juiste manier is voor het forwarden van meerdere poorten voor een service in een AirPort Extreme? Verder lezen &raquo
