Trust my rage

So, I've done my share of torrenting TV programs and never had much trouble. This morning, I tried to torrent something and, after downloading the "seed" file, I opened BitTorrent. Or I should say I tried to open it because it started to open and then closed down without an error message or anything else.

I just installed Tiger last week, although I don't know if that's related. I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar problem or any suggestions on why I would be having this problem now.

The macosx community on LiveJournal is pretty helpful if you just browse through it, as a lot of the people on it (or at least the ones who post) upgraded to Tiger as soon as it came out. On their user info page, if you scroll down, there's a search function where you can search the forum.

Another really useful site, updated daily, is MacFixIt.

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

Hey Teppy, I disremember - you've used Macs at work for a while, right?

Yup -- 10 years now. I have a G4 tower, running OS 9.1, while my co-worker's G4 is running 10.2.something. I need to convince TPTB to upgrade us to Tiger, b/c it's really annoying to be running different OSs.

Was your iBook the first Mac that you've owned?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Bittorrent was not working under Tiger. They just released a new version a couple days ago: [link]

Yup. And I loves it so, with a fervent sickandwrong love.

My iBook was the start of my Mac love. As Hec can attest to, I've since been totally sucked into the Cult of Mac.

Oh, yes. I've always loved Macs -- they were the first computer I used, way the hell back in the 80s. We used them for the newspaper in college, and then my first job out of college I suffered through using a 486 (hey, it was 1994 -- 486s were still not too shabby). But they fired me after 18 months, and the next job I got is the job I have now, which is Mac city. LOVE.

I'd like to loop through the properties in a class -- automatically. Sort of like a foreach -- is that possible?

ita, Still trying to do this?
