This morning i went to put gas in the car. I switched gas stations because i don't like answering three-million questions before being able to start the gas pumping. Sheesh, ask if if i want a receipt after it starts, why waste so much precious time (in the freezing weather)!
That is cute.
Last week i overheard part of a conversation. Someone asked, "what's that in celsius, -40?"
And behold, i chuckled.
Sounds like they Bosched it up. he he he.... ferget it.
I use Google Voice to ring my cell phone and office phone (amongst others). The problem is, the office phone picks up after two rings. It's a Cisco CP-7942G, an ip phone. The time to ring setting is global. Seriously?!

They are not technical at all, but they suspect their son may be visiting inappropriate websites, and if so, they want to talk to him, but first they want to capture the urls surreptitiously to see if their concerns are valid.
UIs becoming mildly useful after only decades of no imagination gives me hope yet once again for flying cars.
The mac mini is due a refresh. Mavericks supports multiple monitors, better, that is, you can have a full screen game in one and still use the other at the same time, or so the say.
XCode is free and comes with a simulator for iOS (does not run apps that you do not have the code for).
Well, i hope you get it all the way you want.
I just use a Mac now. I'm sorry to say, but i love my mac mini.
I finally gave up on using my Nvidia card in that box.
Wasn't it nvidia that was originally going to release their drivers as open source?
Heh. But this stuff should be really, really basic.
On another note, Going through the effort to write it up here helps me release the want to scream.
This file will self-destruct in five minutes.
