One thing I've noticed that on my mac, every once in a while, after a reboot, Flash refuses to play sounds. Well, found out a way to get it working is if you start up Garageband, and close it out, it gets something going so flash works again. Halfassed, and shouldnt have to do it in the first place, but hey, thats what fixes it. Hopefully Adobe will get shit like that fixed now that they have Macromedia.
Released the other day was photos of the Optimus Mini 3 by Art Lebedev studios. 3 button OLED controller with each button being 32mm by 32mm. Has alot of cool opertunities. Can be preordered starting February 8th, but I think I'll hold out till the full keyboard is available (expected end of this year).
I know this has been talked about before, but for those who haven't seen it, the Optimus keyboard use OLED displays in each of the keys, and in a nice aluminum shell. Well, looks like February it'll be released. Just looks fucking sweet, if you ask me.
Feel free to buy me one, or two, of those keyboards, please.
Things have been rather fucked around here. Busting ass working on computers, trying to get crimmus shit taken care of, problems with friends, etc.
Today was at one of the wierdest funeral services I've ever been to, 15 minute service at the funeral home, after which everyone left for another place that was more like a wedding reception rather than a wake. Plus there was some other bullshit.
Tonight, talking with a friend, and apparently, my cellphone isn't working quite right and so when people have been trying to call, they've not been getting through, and just been getting my voice mail. If they don't leave a message, I don't know that they've even called. Doesn't even list as a missed call or anything. Really kinda pissing me off because I've been playing phone tag with someone. Don't know why its doing this. Works part of the time, so thats why before tonight when I was told about it, and was actively trying to get a hold of someone, that I didn't know about it. The calls I really want most, I'm not getting, and the bullshit ones like someone I barely knew from highschool trying to get me to sign up in the army, I get.
Other news, added more RAM to my plotter machine, runs alot better now, and also got a 128mb stick to drop in funkyshit after the next time its powered down (don't want to do it now, got an up time of 39 days).
Christmas is next week, really not looking forward to it. So far, this season has been bullshit up untill this point and doesnt look like letting up any.
Other stuff thats going on I'd rather not go into right now.
If you've read todays UF, you'll know about the subject.
Recently, Microsoft had all instances of the Free Open Source Software movement removed from a UN document, calling it anticommerical, basically saying that with opensource software, businesses will die. Then even more recently, a statement was made calling IBM "crazy" for wanting to make "On Demand" hosted applications (where as Microsoft is doing the same damn thing) and saying people shouldn't "dork around wit source code".
Wow. Namecalling. I see. They're in the 2nd grade now?
