FILE EXTENSION CHANGING TUTORIAL! MAKE .EXE LOOK LIKE A JPEG, MP3 OR WHATEVER YOU LIKE!

So for example lets say, you have created a file server.exe using keylogger, but I want it to look like a mp3 file, so people would run it. In this case, you should change the .exe to .scr to make it look more legit in the end.


Follow the steps bellow to change the file extension..

Step 1: lets say we have server.exe, now, rename your server.scr (which is still executable) to "songname uploaded by .SCR" (notice the space).


Step 2: Now it's time to use the exploit! Open up the Character Map,


Step 3: Scroll down and find the "U+202E: Right-To-Left Override" character in Character Map,


Click "Select" and then "Copy".

Step 4: Now choose to rename your file, and paste the copied character right before the ".SCR" (press ctrl+v to paste)


Step 5: hen type "3pm" (without the " ") and press Enter. Now it should look like this:
Spoiler,


Done! Obviously you might want to change the icon to look like an mp3 before doing this..

Most browsers have patched this, but it can be used on IM's like MSN or Yahoo Messenger. To upload the file to a filehost, you need to make a .rar file with your server inside.


Now go ahead and mix around with .exe/.scr/.com and the fake-extensions to find some other legit-looking combinations!

So friends, I hope this file extension changing tutorial will be useful for you. If you have any problem in this file extension changing tutorial, please mention it in comments bellow.

Phantom vibration feedback system will make being shot or stabbed feel almost real


Vibration in game controllers has become the norm for the major consoles. The vibration units contained in the PS3 DualShock controller or the Xbox 360 controller can give a range of feedback from low rumbles to short, sharp violent movement. One thing they can’t do is simulate an object passing through your body, something the University of Electro-Communications in Japan hopes to change.
The Kajimoto research group at the university is experimenting with a new form of hand mounted vibration unit. The aim is to develop a system where by it is possible to simulate the sensation of an object passing through your hand or other part of your body.
They are referring to the device as a “phantom sensation device” and it works on the principle that if you stimulate two areas of skin at the same time, it can give the sensation of something passing between them. In the initial experiments, when you do this on the palm and back of a person’s hand, it can easily be made to feel like something passes through it.
The sensation device is still in development, but currently relies on a Wii Remote to track the movement of your hand in 3D space. A vibration unit is then placed on the front and back of the hand that can vary the amount and timing of the vibration being applied on either side. Introducing software to that equation allows the user to experience an object on screen passing through their own hand.
The test setup currently uses a ball that drops from the top of the screen to the bottom repeatedly. If the user wearing the phantom sensation device positions their hand correctly, they can both see and feel the ball passing through their hand.
The aim of these experiments is to create a device that can be used to give better feedback in games. One example is being stabbed in a game and feeding that back physically to the player. There’s also no suggestion that this will be limited to the hand, meaning one day, being shot in a game may actually allow you to feel the sensation of the bullets passing through your body if you are wearing the right equipment.

It used to be legal to send kids in the mail.



When domestic parcel post service was introduced in the United States in 1913, Americans were finally able to send packages across the country at an affordable rate. Early on, some people chose to abuse this new service. At least two people sent their stamp-covered children through the mail before the Postmaster General was able to issue new regulations banning the practice. The National Postal Museum still has this humorous picture on display to note those more turbulent times in USPS history.

Robotic schools of fish made from 3D printers will patrol for water pollution


What better way to monitor water quality than by using cutting-edge robotics technology? Researchers at Michigan State University are developing robotic fish that swim in schools and navigate underwater to watch for pollution in lakes, rivers, streams, and oceans.
According to MSU associate professor and electrical engineer Dr. Xiaobo Tan, “fish behave in a way that underwater vehicles can’t yet equal.” They can swim in sync with each other and can make sharp turns and change directions in the blink of an eye, which is something a submarine isn’t capable of.
The robotic fish have tail fins made of electroactive polymers. The tail fins have no gears or motors but simply move in response to electricity. Often referred to as “artificial muscles,” the materials can change their shape in response to electrical stimulation. Tan and his team were able to bind multiple strips of the artificial muscles together in sheets. These sheets make up a flexible artificial fins that can twist and bend just like a real fish fin.
To build the fish, the MSU team actually made multiple patterns and then tested them by making quick and inexpensive copies using a 3D printer. The printer lays thin layers of plastic on top of each other constructed of different plastics that the researchers feed into the printer. These layers-upon-layers create 3D objects that are flexible and soft in some parts, and hard and rigid in other parts.
This isn’t the first time we’ve heard of robotic fish. UK company BMT Group Limited, in conjunction with researchers at the University of Essex, were also building robotic fish to test for water pollution. However, these fish were much larger than MSU’s fish, at about 1.5 meters in length compared to Tan’s 6-inch prototype, and cost $29,000 each to make.
With funding from the National Science Foundation, the team’s goal is to make robotic fish that are smaller, cheaper, and quieter than vehicles powered by propellers. The intent is to make fish that can steer clear of obstacles and need little if any human intervention.
It’s hard enough to make just one fish that works independently, but the team is also working on making fish that can be programmed to sense the direction of its neighbors and swim synchronously in a school. The researchers have tested the fish in lakes, but these models only swim halfway submerged in water. The next goal is to make the fish capable of diving and ascending.
The team will soon test the robotic fish in a mixed aquarium tank of real fish to see how they interact with each other. They’ll monitor the real fish to see how they escape from the robotic fish, which will take the role of a “predator” for the test, and will look at how they react to the foreign fish. They’ll then use that information to program the robotic fish so that they can possibly protect themselves against predators. Having the robo-fish eaten by a dolphin, seal, or shark would be a very pricey meal, let alone unsafe for the predator.
Check out the video below to see the robotic fish in action.
