11/5    Can somebody download the star wars II trailer and put it somewhere
        on soda?  I can't get through to http://starwars.com.  The entire site
        is pretty much hozed for me.  Thanks.
        \_ Why bother. It is going to suck. They circulated a memo
           around ILM to stop making fun of the movie in dailies.
        \_ Try http://www.imdb.com
        \_ /csua/tmp/ep2_breathing_m640.mov
          \_ Cannot play back the video stream: no suitable decompressor
             could be found. (Error=80040255)
             \_ Are you trying via Media Player? It needs the Quicktime 5
                codec, which I don't believe MP has.
                \_ right.  Apple has an exclusive deal with Sorenson that
                   allows only QuickTime to view Sorenson-encoded video
                   streams. (Most modern QT files use Sorenson.)
          \_ thanks!
              \_ damn, how do i play this on my  non-windows non-mac
                 machine?
                 \_ read /.
        \_ so which actor playys Annakinn?
           \_ Hayden Christensen. He's currently in Life as a House.

9/19    "No, A Severed Finger Will Not Be Able to Access a Stolen iPhone 5S"
        http://mashable.com/2013/09/15/severed-finger-iphone-5s
        I'm sure the Apple QA department has tested extensively that a severed
        finger will not be able to access a stolen iPhone 5S.
        \_ It doesn't matter whether or not a severed finger can be used.  It
           matters whether or not a robber thinks that a severed finger can be

7/31    Hi, I am looking for a monitoring recommendation for use at home
        with my MacMini and as a second monitor for my Airbook. At this
        point I dont want to buy a fancy Apple monitor -- will probably
        wait for then to announce a new one -- but price doesnt really
        matter [office buy], but it doesnt seem like there is any need
        to spend more than $500? Historically I've just gotten a decent

12/18   Happy 25th birthday Perl, and FUCK YOU Larry Wall for fucking up
        the computer science formalism that sets back compilers development
        back for at least a decade:

        \_ I tried to learn Perl but was scared away by it.  Maybe scripting
           lanauages have to be like that in order to work well?

        "First you call Amazon and tell them you are the account holder, and
         want to add a credit card number to the account. All you need is the

6/27    You can't put 16GB RAM in the new 13" Macbook Pro.
        Fuck you Apple!
        \_ Really?  I know they say you can't put more than 8GB in the 13"
           MBP, but I have 16GB in my 2011 13" MBP and it works perfectly.
           \_ I thought the new ones have soldier on HD and RAM just like
              the Macbook Air?

1/26    Wozniak says the the Steve Jobs movie clip is historically inaccurate,
        that Jobs was not so much a visionaire that Jobs claimed to be, as Jobs
        was just looking to make a few quick bucks. Why should we trust
        Woz's words over Jobs'?
        \_ Seriously? Read both the Steve Jobs biography and Woz's autobiography.
           Nobody contests that Jobs was a scumbag. Also: the lounge in Soda Hall.

12/6    Lesson learned: don't talk about Monty Python on a date. Women just
        don't seem to get it.
        \_ You are dating the wrong women (for you) then. My sister-in-law
           loves it and yet I don't find it all that funny. It's not a
           gender thing.
           \_ is she a nerd? does she laugh funny? is she actually decent looking?

        for a Three's Company episode:

Today's IMDb Poll Question Is: 81 Today's Poll Which current actress do you think most consistently plays herself? Said rocks belong to Howard Bannister ( 91 Ryan O'Neal), a musicologist who's traveled to San Francisco in hopes of winning a prestigious grant. What he winds up with instead is Judy Maxwell ( 92 Barbra Streisand), a wacky college drop-out who takes a shine to him and, unfortunately for Howard, wreaks havoc everywhere she goes. She also, in a nod to 93 Bringing Up Baby, frees Howard from his repressed life and unsheathes him from his shrill fiance ( 94 Madeline Kahn, in an uproarious film debut). A winning mix of crazy-goofy dialogue and riotous physical comedy, the movie provided the perfect vehicle for Streisand to show off her exquisite comic talents, though at the time the actress didn't think so. Expecting the comedy to be an expensive flop, she took the money and ran, forsaking a potential cut of the film's profits. When directors, casting directors, and other industry folk are looking for fresh faces they often turn to the IMDb to find them. Make sure that people can put a name with your face and use 99 Publicity Photo Services to make your page stand out! Truly Trivial This film, which was shot in Los Angeles during some of the 1992 riots, reunites three actors from 101 Apocalypse Now. DRYDEN A man who tells lies, like me, merely hides the truth. But a man who tells half-lies has forgotten where he put it.
