Build an Adjustable Standing Desk

Posted by Jaddis 11 March, 2010 (0) Comments

Various studies have shown that sitting at your desk all day is not good for your health.  One man has discided to try and do something about it. In his words: “This project got stared the other day when I read a couple of posts on the Lifehacker web site about the health risks of working while sitting all the time.  I got inspired to do something about it and decided that I would build myself a desk that I could stand at.  One of the goals that I had for the desk was to make it versatile enough to be used in a number of settings.  My thought was something that I could use in my office, but might also be used with a treadmill.”

Ad Destroy 6.0: For Yahoo Messenger

Posted by blacknoise 4 February, 2010 (3) Comments

As you probably know after Dedndave stopped releasing patches for new yahoo builds (Yahoo Messenger 10) there wasn’t an alternative to patch yahoo messenger. This is where AD Destroy comes in developed by Dermot and  currently in version 6 its one of the best or rather the only hassle free patching tool for Yahoo Messenger 10 builds(I haven’t tested it on lower builds but there should be no difference), but it doesn’t stop there as there is the older versions for people who use Yahoo Messenger 9 or below.

AD Destroy 6.0 comes in both 32bit and 64bit and will work only with the official Y-Messenger builds.

Supported versions:

10.0.0.525
10.0.0.542
10.0.0.1102
