I have no idea who you are, and I don’t care; I love you because you wrote the Facebook Purity Greasemonkey script to remove those goddamned quiz results from the FB Wall without having to hide everything from a particular user. Granted, that does mean I won’t get to see quiz results from anyone else, […]
Regardless means “without regard to; in spite of (something).” Irrespective means “heedless; characterised by disregard.” Practically interchangeable, but you get to choose only one of these two words…you can’t use bits from both. I don’t care what some web site says about “non-standard use”; that is simply a polite way to say “illiterate use”, and […]
It’s not as pretty as Time Machine, but fuck pretty–I care that it does what I want it to do, and that it doesn’t cost me a fortune to do it. Back In Time does what I want, and doesn’t cost anything at all. It’s really just a GUI frontend for rsync, but since I […]
I’ll lose this if I don’t put it here, and since the first installation command returned a complaint (error) from bzr, this is the one that worked (okay, after I’d installed bzr, since I hadn’t had a need for it since I upgraded to Jaunty). The icon is über-ugly, but I can disable its showing […]
This was in my “Highlights” (or whatever the thingie on the right is called). I fucking hate-hate-hate this. There simply aren’t words for the utter contempt I feel every time someone makes a stupid grade-school level mistake like this. This woman is an excellent artist, has a TV show (though I’ve never actually watched it), […]
I went to get a hanger from the place on the closet where empty shirt hangers *belong*, which is to the left of the most recently worn ironed shirts, (which are on the left, since P is right-handed and will gravitate right when be chooses clothes, so this keeps him from grabbing the same two […]
I like Facebook. Not, “I can’t live without checking my Facebook every day,” but I don’t dislike it as much as I thought I would…except for one thing. Whatever genius designed it offers three options for those friends who have nothing to fucking do all day but take stupid quizzes which then automatically post on […]
At some point in time last year, I wanted to join a Flickr group which aims to catalogue as many of the world’s species as possible. I may not have great photos, but I do have photos of critters that don’t interest just anyone, and if I could add something useful to the Encyclopædia of […]
My review of the Categories iPhone app… First, it pissed me off that I’m stuck with AdMob to use this (I even hate the name “AdMob”) but since the ads show only when you’re editing within the app, I can live with it…I guess. Since I had to take it out of hosts, that means […]
At first, I was satisified to have iPhone access without connecting via USB cable. All I had to do was fire up a terminal, type “iphone-mount” and enter the phone’s root password…twice. Unmount…type iphone-umount, enter root’s password, and that’s it. I could have changed it to passwordless when I first set it up, but I […]
