I hate that when I type in a query to Google, like: appscript network It returns a heap of hits for AppleScript network. Fuck you Google. If I meant AppleScript, I’d fucking write AppleScript!

I’m really liking the look of the Nokia E65 as my next phone. It has WiFi, Bluetooth, and Nokia also supply an iSync plugin. And it works with Salling Clicker, which looks like the must have phone/Mac interface program. Edit: Had N65 in the body, meant E65.

There’s a fairly neat feature in the new Parallels: you can edit a file from your Windows installation in a native OS X application. That is, when you “Open With…” under Windows, Mac Apps (but possibly only those in /Applications) are available as opening tools. Very cool.

Well, my blog sneaked past 1000 posts, and I didn’t even notice!

Eve Online has a daily system restart, and when this happens, I sometimes leave the login window open, so I can keep checking and log back in as soon as downtime finishes. However, I’ve noticed that the login screen seems to consume a heck of a lot more CPU cycles than the application itself. Interesting.

Man, 12 Mbit/s is slow. I’ve got a USB 1.0 “full-speed” hub, and tried to copy across 60GB of files. In about 18 hours, that was only about 3GB copied… So I bought a USB 2.0 hub, and that is much faster.

Here I go, reinstalling WinXP for the umpteenth time this week. I seem to have some corrupted files which prevents me from running all but the most simple of applications. Including IE, and Firefox, btw.
