Is anyone else having trouble getting into Yahoo Mail? I'm getting into Yahoo's main site fine, but the mail server keeps timing out on me.

Hmm quick Nero Express/Backitup question. Both came with my drive. I find I need to slow down write speed of my drive to make a reliable backup (which is fine - not backing up huge amount of data in any case.) With Nero expess that is easy to do. With Backitup, I can't find where you tell it to write at a slower speed. And the filters, which don't seem to exist in Express, would be handy to use. Any thoughts on how to slow down the write speed and get filters at the same time?

Thanks

Does t sup work here? If not, is there some other sort of code I can use for superscript. I seem to recall t sup did not work, but that Jon B had a way to make superscript.

edited because duh, I can at least try t sup while I'm waiting1.

(nope, doesn't work, and it disappears from the posting box when I go back in, to edit.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

t sup isn't currently enabled, but if you're superscripting 1, 2, or 3, you can do so via entities ¹, ² and ³ (¹, ² and ³ respectively).

Testing to see if it works for a period. &sup.; Nope. Well, it wasn't important.¹

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Anyone have a rough idea when OSX 10.4 (Tiger) might be released? Is Apple releasing a new revision about once a year? When was OSX 10.3 released?
