I also want to know, where does
this leave
iPhoto? "Now, you too can organize your pictures.. in iTunes! But you
don't. You just download them there. You organize your pictures in
iPhoto but you download them with iTunes, but you can also do it in
iTunes if you want. Got it?"
It's not as if they have a lot of choices. If they keep photo
management for iPhoto, winPods will be useless and if they ported
iPhoto they would have one less reason for you to buy an iMac; pretty
much lose-lose. Educated guess? Half-assed try with iTunes, the real
deal with iPhoto.
And finally: true OpenBIOS-enabled
Linux-systems would be free from any DRM-crap.
Which is fairly irrelevant, since what
you get at the end of the chain is the very same result anti-DRM people
are said to loathe: they are not in full control of the computer they
own. If I try to install (either pirate or legit) Windows on a machine
I bought from you and it gives me a 'no go', be sure I'll carefully
consider the alternatives before doing business with your company again.
Yep, I know whose fault is it that it doesn't work, thanks.
Well, if we are to take my account's spam folder as reference, it seems a bug they have yet to fix is that their auto-generated alerts are junk-mail-like enough to fool gmail's own filters.
On one hand, it's reassuring to know that not even google.com is whitelisted from the algorithms but, on the other, it's really annoying to need to mark each and every one of them as 'Not spam'.
I am deeply concerned about the state of our relationship. Don't get me wrong, you're as cute as it gets and I hold no doubt that you're the most appealing partner anyone can have. You also seem to understand my needs; we have great fun together. Besides, I have taken great advantage of your ability to use your burly sister's stuff (what was her name, uNIXon?) and I remember fondly how you didn't mind if I met your more popular friend, the one with the house made of glass (that's pretty insecure and dangerous, if you ask me).
But I fear it's over. Since you dyed your hair to black (wish you made up your mind - you've had blonde with black spots, dark blonde, back to blonde&black and I've heard you're planning to use it again next year - you're worse than the 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' chick), I've noticed you've become too much of a show-off. Anyone can just walk up to you and, just with his simple gesture, you're willing to take off your clothes and let him see your bare skin, choose whatever part of you they fancy and access to it without further hassle. I mean, it's bad enough seeing you flirt with that pale musician guy all the time, always sharing everything, but I would have expected you to keep your decency. I'm dumping you.
May I be so bold as to inform of the simple fact that all those freeipods/porsches/lcds.com links are just as worthy of being called 'spam' as the wacky Nigerian prince adventures or the mortgage offers. No, just because it is you who gets the 3. PROFIT! doesn't make it any less reprehensible, thank you for asking.
I am, for one, disabling sigs for the next month or so and hope for the better.

Excerpt: As
part of this
billion-dollar festival of smoke and mirrors, Bill Gates has apparently
paid the Rolling Stones 8 million pounds for the right to use Start Me
Up, the song which is better known for its catchy refrain "You make a
grown man cry".
I just wanted to chip in about a similar "mystery". Starting October
1st, metacortechs.com (Metacortex was the company Neo worked for
in the first movie) unveiled a series of ever-increasing fan-made (this
was confirmed at a later point) plots which other fans discovered by
using the clues scattered around the sites or even making use of good,
old-fashioned brute force hacking.
Check out this
guide; there's a pretty massive amount of information regarding
this and it was great fun to see its development.
For all of the good love of The Lord, have you no decency left? How can
you ever perish the thought of an exchange between your brother, a
living, breathing creature, owner of an immortal soul, a complex
personality and a wonderful human brain, product of thousands of years
of evolution and an upgrade for your computer? And one which purpose is
to more realistically show the hideous nature of the devil's creatures
in a videogame, no less! I'm truly outraged and shocked for your
reckless behaviour.
The Zalman heat sink, cool as it was,
just didn't fit.
So, let's see. This guy got a
fan too big for the case he had. Fair enough.
[Later I] bought another Zalman heat
sink that looked smaller than the first.
While at the computer store, I
discovered the Antec Lanboy 350. (...) I had to have that sucker!
The case I had at home was gigantic
Then, he proceeded to buy a smaller fan, which he tried to set up in A
SMALLER BOX.
I ripped [the new fan] open
eagerly and then realized to my utter chagrin and embarrassment that
the new one didn't fit either!
Actually, "The Burly Man" was the name the Reloaded+Revolutions
production had while they were filming it. The reasons for this
fact are beyond me, since the sequels had already been announced and
everyone [who cared about it] knew where it was going on. And it's not
as if you could keep a secret on a movie with 10 mins of credits anyway.
Want proof? It's mentioned in this
article from Wired, appears on this crew-exclusive
T-shirt and you can see it in a surprising amount of footage on all
those behind-the-stages documentaries this boxset seems to be so
prolific on.
Ew, I feel like a geek. In the bad sense of the word.
Has anyone got a mirror/torrent for GTray?

Slashdot Mirror
Netcraft can fix that.

I'm New Here, but this Firefox does sound very promising!

Made me chuckle. I wonder how many people got it
He'd better be careful; I've been hearing a lot about iPod killers lately.
Coming to cinemas everywhere...When it's done!

Oh, who am I kidding? Come here and kiss me!

Hmm, maybe I can buy a couple congressmen to make the it.slashdot.org "theme" illegal...
On the plus side, you also get a pic of Christina Ricci in 'Anything Else', which is quite the treat for the male eyesight.
It must be from Alanis Morrisette Industries Inc.

Uhm, techically speaking neither Beagle nor Beagle: Reloaded have cratered.
For all we know, they're just experiencing a rather nasty case of lag.
That's just the kind of thing you want on top of your lap...
There's smoke coming out of your crotch...Is the power unit in your laptop melting or are you just REALLY happy to see me?
You mean Windows is based on the HHTTG text-adventure game?
;-)
Uhm...I don't think so, judging by Douglas Adams' thoughts on Windows 95.

Tee Hee.
From the second link...
yeah and the damn cat also peed on my digital camcorder case as well.
same material, same stink.
Any chance the cat's name was Spooner?
I like (...) being the one to say "Uh, dude, this is where you screwed up, but I fixed it for you".
Sir, you are one annoying individual.

Now, maybe if you had a sister...
Hey, the one from Winamp 2 to 3 was much worse.
Thank you, I'll be here all week. Try the veal.

Truly outstanding post and editing, I'm bookmarking this for future reference.
