Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Andi's having problems with connection speed with OSX 10.3.9 on a dialup to her local ISP (casagrandeinternet.com) and their lack of support page is driving me craxy.
She has the correct G4 modem selected, but it is connecting at 24,000 bps. I hope it's not her phone line. The only number she has for dialup is 520-836-4344.
Anyway, if anyone here has any suggestions, or can find an alternate dialup for that provider, let me know. It's so bad she gave up on the Titanium powerbook last night and went back to her WebTV console.
That's just... wrong.
has anyone here loaded linux onto their ipods? If so, how is it working for ya?
Why would one do that? Because one can?
well, on the ipod hack websites I read there are a couple of reasons for it:
1) viewing graphics on the ipod; 2) playing games on the ipod; 3) recording sound on the ipod using relatively cheaper means than the Apple and Belkin microphones, etc.
here is a good site that discusses it:

Ooh! I just discovered that in Opera you can manipulate pages open in windows that do
not
have the focus. If you perform the mouse gesture over the button (I'm assuming it works in the tabbed layout too) for that window, the page will refresh/close/back up/whatever. This probably explains some confusing behaviour I've written off over the past little while, and is also kinda nifty when you have 15 pages open.
So, yeah. this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Video quality is becoming quite amazing these days, huh?
That gave me quite a startle, because just to the right of the Serenity trailer is my department's new HD reel. (Which, ironically, I can't watch here at work because the G5 in the back has yet to be connected to the network, and it's the only Mac in the entire office.)
Dear
GOD,
but watching video on the Powerbook is a dream. I can shrink a torrented video window to 1/2 size, and everything still looks perfectly legible.
I'm just blown away by the pretty -- the HD is a whole nother level.
Wow. Macs are super duper simple to add to a Windows network. Your techs must be really busy.
Unless it requires a new ethernet drop, that's a whole ballgame apart.
It requires getting official permission to add a non-Windows 2000 computer to the network. The level of red tape that goes on around here is...impressive.
In theory, I could go back there right now and plug it in myself in about three seconds, but I don't really feel like getting fired.
Can anyone help me with a PHP class thing?
I'd like to loop through the properties in a class -- automatically. Sort of like a foreach -- is that possible?
