WP 2.0 works just fine with Safari... WordPress detects that you're using Safari and serves up the old-style editing interface instead of TinyMCE, its WYSIWYG editor. Read more about TinyMCE's Safari incompatibilities (or from their perspective, Safari's TinyMCE incompatibilities) here.
Not as it's being described by Apple. It's a tiny access point, the RJ45 is for a wired connection to the LAN, and the USB port seems only to be for connecting to a printer. Seems that you're still going to have to shell out to Sony.
I don't have access to the DARPA feed, but according to the Status Board all entrants have either been marked as Disabled or Withdrawn. Unless the rules allow teams to repair disabled vehicles in the field (making them less than truly autonomous) it appears that the much-hyped Grand Challenge has been a total wash.
How do you handle the recurring debates over distributions? What would you recommend to someone who wants to try moving to Linux but can't afford to spend countless hours getting it to install - installing Windows XP only takes me 30 minutes and everything works.
I would recommend that you drop into the #forum channel of irc.slashnet.org around 8pm EST this evening and ask Marcel Gagne.:)
Is it just wording, or have you found something out there that doesn't (or by chance has drivers for OS X)
The only thing I've found that is OS X compatible and has a majority of these features (no DVD player, however) is elgato's newly announced EyeHome.
What I'd really like -- perhaps I'm in the minority here -- would be a unit with either its own HD or at least the capability to add an external drive and serve to the network. It seems a bit silly to saturate my wireless lan by streaming files from the machines it's less suited for to the home theater system for which it was designed.
That said, I think I'll be purchasing an EyeHome, but I'm going to give it a few weeks to allow everyone to announce their entries into this device category.
My iBook went through: two hard drives, two lcds, four logic boards, two batteries, a power inverter and various and sundry other bits, all within its first year. All problems speedily repaired by Apple at no cost to me. Opting for Apple Care to extend the hardware coverage beyond the first year was something i didn't have to think twice about.
So, unless you think you're going to need telephone tech support beyond the initial 90 days -- which I never did -- I would advise you to see how it goes over the course of the first year and make your decision based on that. I'm told that Apple doesn't like it if you don't have continuous coverage, however, so if you do decide to go with AppleCare, make sure to purchase it before the anniversary of your powerbook's purchase.
Given that any single hardware repair on an out of warranty powerbook is $379, and the cost of 3 years of powerbook applecare is $350, even if you only need it once, it's a deal.

A nice, if rather convoluted tutorial. All you really need to know in this case, however, is the URL of the stream -- no proxying required.
Hmmm. Camino is barfing on that link. Well, cut and paste the link below into your real player. It's not that exciting, though -- I was hoping to see endless music videos of AK-waving masses lifting up their voices in song. In reality, it's mostly chunky, sluggish video of press conferences whenever I've connected.
In the good 'ole USA they ban 2strokes without ANY form of emission testing, it doesn't matter if you can pass emissions tests - 2strokes are banned
Are you trolling? That is not a true statement. A recent example: The Genuine Scooter Company will, very shortly, be rolling out the Stella, an old-school 2-stroke scooter in the best Vespa tradition. It's legal in 49 states -- California is a bit sticky about 2-strokes, it's true.
When in Portland, visit Wacky Willy's. Or Honoloulou for that matter, though I haven't been to that one.
I can't begin to describe the incredibly varied assortment of things they sell -- from bins of plastic dolls heads to old vaxen to lab glass. They host some really cool events too.
My computer's speakers (Yamahas) are naturally tuned to a CB frequency... not sure what it is, but the ice cream trucks in my neighborhood use it. It's spooky.
Well, to support Elvis' assertion that the Brits aren't exactly starving themselves, Auntie Beeb had this to say a few days ago:
In the UK, the number of men considered obese has more than doubled from 8% in the 1980s to 17% now, while the rate for women has soared from 9% to 21%.
The situation is mirrored among children with nearly one in five youngsters in England overweight.
You are, perhaps, recalling the 24/7 rock bombardment of a holed-up Manuel Noriega during the US invasion of Panama?
George Washington University's National Security Archive has a playlist of what the psyops guys used to subdue Noriega here. See Pages 4, 5, and 6 specifically.
No need to re-season unless you're crazy-intense about it. I put the skillet on low heat, add the salt and a bit of oil and scrub it around. When all the baked-on nastiness has lifted, just rinse it out in the sink and return to low heat to dry. There's something very satisfying about using food as a cleaning product itself. If you use a coffee grinder to grind spices, whizzing a handful of uncooked rice in it will go a long way towards getting old spice residue out.
given Moore's Law [...], it would make no sense to try to print out a googleplex for another 524 years - since all earlier attempts to print a googleplex out would be overtaken by the faster processor.
The link between printing speed and Moore's Law escapes me. Are we assembling a gargantuan PDF containing the text of a googolplex and then printing it? I would think you could easily print out a googolplex in less than 524 years. Just have your printer print one page beginning with 1, then X iterations of page two, which is all zeroes. All you need to know is how many zeroes will fit per page in your font and linespacing of choice.
I agree. There's gottabe a catchy and apropos domain name that DP could redirect to its current location -- definitely the best PR investment that could be made -- as texts01.archive.org/dp is a bitch of an url to publicize. (rummage rummage...)Freetext.net seems to be a stagnant site with a good name. Maybe they're done with it and wouldn't mind giving it up to an active project.
Applause and props to the folks responsible for DP's backend and for its (seemingly) well-managed processes, but it's rather the coy site in terms of self-promotion. I shudder to think what kind of proofing volume might be realized if they scored some serious exposure, and what that would mean for the pre- and post- processing ends of things. They might easily run out of scanned material to proof and be overwhelmed with a backlog of proofed works to post-process (there are 55 waiting to be "massaged" into final etexts at the moment).

and my treasured cast iron skillet for the things IT is good at (even though cleaning it is a pain in the ass).
if you're not using a liberal handful of rock salt to clean your cast iron skillet, you're doing it the hard way.
