Tag: TODO: Split

Posts with several unrelated topics that I’m considering splitting into individual posts.

  • Fedora 12 claims PulseAudio improvements. Here’s hoping sound will actually work after suspend+resume again.
  • Also: iPod train wreck of the morning was the Cardcaptor Sakura theme followed by Garbage’s Supervixen.
  • What’s with all the “Be a social worker!” spam lately? It’s a change from the usual porn, pills, watches & software, but out of left field.
  • Future reference: Though there’s no lever to pop the hatch on the Prius, unlocking the doors allows someone else to open it from outside

  • Spam subject: “Your decent watch will upgrade your status.” You mean I won’t need my phone to update Facebook? AWESOME!
  • WTF? Google C&Ds Android modder Cyanogen. Isn’t it supposed to be licensed open-source in the first place? The cease-and-desist order is about Google’s apps (Maps, Gmail, etc.) that are pre-installed, not about the operating system itself, but still, it feels like a violation of the spirit if not the letter of the license.
  • Odd: it took 3 hours for my shoulder to get sore after the flu shot. Still, NOTHING compared to last year’s tetanus shot. Now THAT hurt!
  • This XKCD comic reminds me of the “uranium-free pizza” joke from some scouting event way back when.

  • TV: Castle good. Bones OK but more Katie’s thing. Still undecided on Glee. Excited about Flash Forward. Not sure on Heroes or Dollhouse.
  • The “Mind the Gap” monster in Neverwhere sounds a lot like the smoke monster on Lost now.
  • Speaking of smoke, I’ve been trying to figure out where all the crud in the air is coming from today. Norco maybe?
  • Flash-only sites are also invisible to smartphone users, even with iPhone & Android.
