Isn't the point of iPod skins to protect them from getting scratched?
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A not inconsiderable part of iPod skins is to look cool, I'm sure.

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

Besides, you gotta have a skin to match your chainmail bikini....
eta: But the site did say that new versions of the chainmail skin would have a lining in the inside to prevent scratching....

Turns out bloglines didn't like the extension. Now that I've done a ForceType so I can name the php file .rss, it looks fine.
Next question -- I want to use htaccess to redirect calls to subdir/rss.xml to /index.rss (which is really php). What directive do I need in the subdir/.htaccess? I won't need to change /.htaccess (which already does the ForceTyping just fine) will I?

I do not want objects talking to me. That creeps me right the fuck out.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Yup. Yesterday, our marketing assistant walked away from her Mac after setting up a print job. There was a printer error, and the frelling thing started announcing the error to the entire office, scaring our receptionist.
I really hate Steve Jobs.

If they talk to me, and I need to listen, they need to be able to understand me speaking.

Macs come with a rudimentary voice-recognition thingie. (It only recongnized commands, so you still need to buy software if you want to convert speech to text.)
I really have no use for it, but it's fun to say, "Computer, tell me a joke." And then it does.

Beau has printing software that says: "printing started" and "Printing completed"
I HATE IT. I always look up and think "who is that strange man in my house commenting on printing?"

Hey. New board.
I turned on spoken alerts once. I turned them off five minutes later.
ION, b.org looks cool in Pocket IE. For some reason the user titles are bigger than the notmal text. It's fun.
